Löydetty 1248 Tulokset: Death Of Moses
Just as Moses prayed to the Lord, and fire came down from heaven and devoured the sacrifices, so also Solomon prayed, and the fire came down and consumed the whole burnt offerings. (2 Maccabees 2, 10)
And Moses said, "They were consumed because the sin offering had not been eaten." (2 Maccabees 2, 11)
Menelaus, the cause of all the evil, he acquitted of the charges against him, while he sentenced to death those unfortunate men, who would have been freed uncondemned if they had pleaded even before Scythians. (2 Maccabees 4, 47)
But he, welcoming death with honor rather than life with pollution, went up to the the rack of his own accord, spitting out the flesh, (2 Maccabees 6, 19)
so that by doing this he might be saved from death, and be treated kindly on account of his old friendship with them. (2 Maccabees 6, 22)
and leave to the young a noble example of how to die a good death willingly and nobly for the revered and holy laws." When he had said this, he went at once to the rack. (2 Maccabees 6, 28)
When he was about to die under the blows, he groaned aloud and said: "It is clear to the Lord in his holy knowledge that, though I might have been saved from death, I am enduring terrible sufferings in my body under this beating, but in my soul I am glad to suffer these things because I fear him." (2 Maccabees 6, 30)
So in this way he died, leaving in his death an example of nobility and a memorial of courage, not only to the young but to the great body of his nation. (2 Maccabees 6, 31)
"The Lord God is watching over us and in truth has compassion on us, as Moses declared in his song which bore witness against the people to their faces, when he said, `And he will have compassion on his servants.'" (2 Maccabees 7, 6)
And when he was near death, he said, "One cannot but choose to die at the hands of men and to cherish the hope that God gives of being raised again by him. But for you there will be no resurrection to life!" (2 Maccabees 7, 14)
Do not fear this butcher, but prove worthy of your brothers. Accept death, so that in God's mercy I may get you back again with your brothers." (2 Maccabees 7, 29)
While she was still speaking, the young man said, "What are you waiting for? I will not obey the king's command, but I obey the command of the law that was given to our fathers through Moses. (2 Maccabees 7, 30)
