Löydetty 305 Tulokset: Covenant Of Circumcision
If your sons keep my covenant and the decrees I have taught them, their sons, too, will sit forever upon your throne." (Psalms 132, 12)
And as they wanted to be like the pagans in everything, they made artificial foreskins for themselves and abandoned the Holy Covenant, sinning as they pleased. (1 Maccabees 1, 15)
and not perform on their sons the rite of circumcision. To sum up, they were to defile themselves by all kinds of impurity and profanity (1 Maccabees 1, 48)
They killed anyone they caught in possession of the book of the Covenant and who fulfilled the precepts of the Law, as the royal decree had ordered. (1 Maccabees 1, 57)
The women who, in defiance of the decree, had the rite of circumcision performed on their children, were put to death with their babies hung around their necks. (1 Maccabees 1, 60)
Their families and all who had taken part in the circumcision were also put to death. (1 Maccabees 1, 61)
They preferred to die rather than to make themselves unclean with those foods (prohibited by the Law) that violated the Holy Covenant. (1 Maccabees 1, 63)
I, my sons and my family will remain faithful to the Covenant of our fathers. (1 Maccabees 2, 20)
Mattathias then began to proclaim loudly in the city: "Everyone who is zealous for the Law and supports the Covenant, come out and follow me!" (1 Maccabees 2, 27)
imposed by force the rite of circumcision on the children they found uncircumcised, (1 Maccabees 2, 46)
So, my sons, be zealous for the Law and risk your lives defending the Covenant of our fathers. (1 Maccabees 2, 50)
Cry out to God, for if he so wishes he will remember his Covenant and destroy that army before us this very day. (1 Maccabees 4, 10)
