  • Some of these, cowardly souls that put no trust in God’s awarding, took refuge in flight; (2 Maccabees 8, 13)

  • His body was brought home again; Philip, his foster-brother, came back with it, and then took refuge in Egypt with Ptolemy Philometor, so little he trusted the young prince Antiochus. (2 Maccabees 9, 29)

  • And now the first of Judas’ companies came in sight, and with it the presence of the all-seeing God.✻ What fear fell upon the enemy, how they scattered in flight, stumbling over their own fellows, wounded by the point of their own swords! (2 Maccabees 12, 22)

  • Idle hand, empty purse; riches come of hard work. (Who trusts in false promises, throws his food to the winds; as well may he chase bird in flight.✻ ) (Proverbs 10, 4)

  • The bird’s flight through air what print betrays? So fiercely lashed the still breeze with the beating of her pinions, as she cleaves her noisy way through heaven, wings flapping, and is gone; and afterwards, what sign of her going? (Wisdom of Solomon 5, 11)

  • When Jacob, her faithful servant, was in flight from his brother’s anger, she guided him straight to his goal, and on the way shewed him the heavenly kingdom, gave him knowledge of holy things. She enriched him by his toil, and gave all his labours a happy issue. (Wisdom of Solomon 10, 10)

  • How ill it had gone with their adversaries in Egypt, that thirst of theirs in the desert plainly shewed them; (Wisdom of Solomon 11, 9)

  • For Israel, only a test of their faith; only a father’s correction; for Egypt, as from a king, stern scrutiny and stern doom. (Wisdom of Solomon 11, 11)

  • wondered at Moses, whom their insolence had long ago disinherited, when they exposed him with the other children. Thirst, that had been Egypt’s enemy, had no terrors for the just. (Wisdom of Solomon 11, 15)

  • Though hunger drove them to food, the men of Egypt turned away with loathing from the necessaries they craved, so foul the sight of the frogs that came to punish them. Thy own people should go wanting for a little, only so as to prepare them for the dainties that would follow. (Wisdom of Solomon 16, 3)

  • the uplifted arm that plagued impious Egypt, where thou wast treated as a stranger. Strange, indeed, to that country were the rains that hunted them down, the fierce hail-storms; the fire, too, that wasted them. (Wisdom of Solomon 16, 16)
