Löydetty 1045 Tulokset: Book Of Life
When the seventh month had come after the return of the Israelites to their cities, the whole people gathered, like one man, in the open space before the Water-gate; and there they would have the scribe Esdras go and fetch the book in which the law of Moses, the Lord’s prescription to Israel, was written down. (Nehemiah 8, 1)
So there and then, on the first day of the seventh month, the priest Esdras fetched out the book, in the presence of a great throng of men and women, with such children as were old enough to understand it. (Nehemiah 8, 2)
Esdras was plainly seen, as he opened the book, by all the people underneath. When he had opened it, all rose; (Nehemiah 8, 5)
And they read out the book of the law, clear and plain to give the sense of it, so that all could understand the reading. (Nehemiah 8, 8)
Day after day while the feast continued Esdras read out the book of God’s law to them. So for seven days they kept high festival, and on the eighth there was a gathering of the whole people, held with due solemnity. (Nehemiah 8, 18)
Heaven is of thy fashioning, and the heaven of heavens, and all the hosts that dwell there, earth and sea, and all that earth and sea hold; to all these thou givest the life they have; none so high in heaven but must pay thee worship. (Nehemiah 9, 6)
And thou, all the while, wast pleading with them to return to thy allegiance, while they, too proud to heed thy bidding, transgressed the commandments that bring man life; always the unwilling shoulder, the stubborn neck, the deaf ear. (Nehemiah 9, 29)
In the book of Annals, the Levite chiefs are only entered down to the days of Eliasib’s grandson Jonathan. (Nehemiah 12, 23)
No, he remained as stout-hearted a worshipper of God as before, and never a day passed but he returned thanks for the gift of life. (Tobit 2, 14)
we come of holy stock, you and I, and God has life waiting for us if we will but keep faith with him. (Tobit 2, 18)
And now, Lord, do with me as thy will is, give the word, and take my spirit to thyself in peace; for me, death is more welcome than life.✻ (Tobit 3, 6)
But this at least all thy true worshippers know; never was a life of trials but had its crown; never distress from which thou couldst not save; never punishment but left a gateway to thy mercy. (Tobit 3, 21)
