So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

Genesis 2:7
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

Genesis 2:21
And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.

Genesis 2:22-24

²²Then the rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.
²³And Adam said:
        “This is now bone of my bones
        And flesh of my flesh;
        She shall be called Woman,
        Because she was taken out of Man.”
²⁴Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

Genesis 5:1
This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness of God.

Job

Job 10
⁸”Your hands have made me and fashioned me,
        An intricate unity;
        Yet You would destroy me.
        ⁹Remember, I pray, that You have made me like clay.
        And will You turn me into dust again?
        ¹⁰Did You not pour me out like milk,
        And curdle me like cheese,
        ¹¹Clothe me with skin and flesh,
        And knit me together with bones and sinews?

Solomon

Ecclesiastes 12:1
Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, Before the difficult days come, And the years draw near when you say, “I have no pleasure in them”:

Jesus Christ

Matthew 19:4
And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who made[NU-Text reads created] them at the beginning “made them male and female,’ [Genesis 1:27; 5:2]

Genesis 1:27
So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

Genesis 5:2
He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created.

Paul

Acts 17:29
Therefore, since we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, something shaped by art and man’s devising.

Romans 5:13
(For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law.)

Romans 5:14
Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come.

1 Corinthians 15:45
And so it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being.” [Genesis 2:7] The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

1 Timothy 2:13-15

¹³For Adam was formed first, then Eve. ¹⁴And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression. ¹⁵Nevertheless she will be saved in childbearing if they continue in faith, love, and holiness, with self-control.

Genesis 2:7
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

Genesis 3:19
In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread Till you return to the ground, For out of it you were taken; For dust you are, And to dust you shall return.”

God

Genesis 1:26
Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all [Syriac reads all the wild animals of] the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

Genesis 3:19
In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread Till you return to the ground, For out of it you were taken; For dust you are, And to dust you shall return.”

Isaiah 51:3
For the LORD will comfort Zion, He will comfort all her waste places; He will make her wilderness like Eden, And her desert like the garden of the LORD; Joy and gladness will be found in it, Thanksgiving and the voice of melody.

Ezekiel 28:13
You were in Eden, the garden of God; Every precious stone was your covering: The sardius, topaz, and diamond, Beryl, onyx, and jasper, Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold. The workmanship of your timbrels and pipes Was prepared for you on the day you were created.

Ezekiel 31:9
I made it beautiful with a multitude of branches, So that all the trees of Eden envied it, That were in the garden of God.’
 

Ezekiel 31:16
I made the nations shake at the sound of its fall, when I cast it down to hell together with those who descend into the Pit; and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, were comforted in the depths of the earth.

Ezekiel 31:18
“To which of the trees in Eden will you then be likened in glory and greatness? Yet you shall be brought down with the trees of Eden to the depths of the earth; you shall lie in the midst of the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude,’ says the Lord GOD.”

Ezekiel 36:35
So they will say, “This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden; and the wasted, desolate, and ruined cities are now fortified and inhabited.’

Joel 2:3
A fire devours before them, And behind them a flame burns; The land is like the Garden of Eden before them, And behind them a desolate wilderness; Surely nothing shall escape them.

Genesis 2:8
The LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed.

Genesis 2:9-11

⁹And out of the ground the LORD God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
¹⁰Now a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it parted and became four riverheads. ¹¹The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one which skirts the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.

Job 31:33
If I have covered my transgressions as Adam, By hiding my iniquity in my bosom,

Hosea 6:7
“But like men [Or like Adam] they transgressed the covenant; There they dealt treacherously with Me.

Romans 5:12
Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned--

Romans 5:14
Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come.

1 Timothy 2:14
And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression.

Genesis 3:5-7

⁵For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
⁶So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. ⁷Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.

Genesis 3:17
Then to Adam He said, “Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, “You shall not eat of it’: “Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it All the days of your life.

1 Chronicles 1

⁵The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

Isaiah 54:8-10

⁸With a little wrath I hid My face from you for a moment;
        But with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you,”
        Says the LORD, your Redeemer.
        ⁹”For this is like the waters of Noah to Me;
        For as I have sworn
        That the waters of Noah would no longer cover the earth,
        So have I sworn
        That I would not be angry with you, nor rebuke you.
        ¹⁰For the mountains shall depart
        And the hills be removed,
        But My kindness shall not depart from you,
        Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed,”
        Says the LORD, who has mercy on you.

Ezekiel 14:14
Even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they would deliver only themselves by their righteousness,” says the Lord GOD.

Matthew 24:37-39

³⁷But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. ³⁸For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, ³⁹and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

Luke 17:25-27
²⁵But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation. ²⁶And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: ²⁷They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.

Luke 3:35-37
³⁵the son of Serug, the son of Reu, the son of Peleg, the son of Eber, the son of Shelah, ³⁶the son of Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Shem, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech, ³⁷the son of Methuselah, the son of Enoch, the son of Jared, the son of Mahalalel, the son of Cainan,

Hebrews 11:7
By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

2 Peter 2:4-6

⁴ For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; ⁵and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly; ⁶and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly;

Genesis 6:8-10

⁸But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
⁹ This is the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God. ¹⁰And Noah begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

Genesis 7:11
In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

Genesis 7:23
So He destroyed all living things which were on the face of the ground: both man and cattle, creeping thing and bird of the air. They were destroyed from the earth. Only Noah and those who were with him in the ark remained alive.

Genesis 9:16-18

¹⁶The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.” ¹⁷And God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth.”
¹⁸ Now the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And Ham was the father of Canaan.

Genesis 9:19
These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populated.

Genesis 9:29
So all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.

Genesis 10:1-2

¹ Now this is the genealogy of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And sons were born to them after the flood.
²The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

Joshua 24:2-4

²And Joshua said to all the people, “Thus says the LORD God of Israel: “Your fathers, including Terah, the father of Abraham and the father of Nahor, dwelt on the other side of the River [Hebrew Nahar, the Euphrates, and so in verses 3, 14, and 15] in old times; and they served other gods. ³Then I took your father Abraham from the other side of the River, led him throughout all the land of Canaan, and multiplied his descendants and gave him Isaac. ⁴To Isaac I gave Jacob and Esau. To Esau I gave the mountains of Seir to possess, but Jacob and his children went down to Egypt.

2 Chronicles 20:5-7

⁵Then Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of the LORD, before the new court, ⁶and said: “O LORD God of our fathers, are You not God in heaven, and do You not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations, and in Your hand is there not power and might, so that no one is able to withstand You? ⁷Are You not our God, who drove out the inhabitants of this land before Your people Israel, and gave it to the descendants of Abraham Your friend forever?

Acts 7:4-6
⁴Then he came out of the land of the Chaldeans and dwelt in Haran. And from there, when his father was dead, He moved him to this land in which you now dwell. ⁵And God gave him no inheritance in it, not even enough to set his foot on. But even when Abraham had no child, He promised to give it to him for a possession, and to his descendants after him. ⁶But God spoke in this way: that his descendants would dwell in a foreign land, and that they would bring them into bondage and oppress them four hundred years.

Genesis 17:8-10

⁸Also I give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.”
⁹And God said to Abraham: “As for you, you shall keep My covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their generations. ¹⁰This is My covenant which you shall keep, between Me and you and your descendants after you: Every male child among you shall be circumcised;

Genesis 26:2-4
²Then the LORD appeared to him and said: “Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land of which I shall tell you. ³Dwell in this land, and I will be with you and bless you; for to you and your descendants I give all these lands, and I will perform the oath which I swore to Abraham your father. ⁴And I will make your descendants multiply as the stars of heaven; I will give to your descendants all these lands; and in your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed;

Genesis 26:24
And the LORD appeared to him the same night and said, “I am the God of your father Abraham; do not fear, for I am with you. I will bless you and multiply your descendants for My servant Abraham’s sake.”

Genesis 28:4
And give you the blessing of Abraham, To you and your descendants with you, That you may inherit the land In which you are a stranger, Which God gave to Abraham.”

Genesis 28:12-14

¹²Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
¹³And behold, the LORD stood above it and said: “I am the LORD God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and your descendants. ¹⁴Also your descendants shall be as the dust of the earth; you shall spread abroad to the west and the east, to the north and the south; and in you and in your seed all the families of the earth shall be blessed.

Genesis 35:11-13

¹¹Also God said to him: “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall proceed from you, and kings shall come from your body. ¹²The land which I gave Abraham and Isaac I give to you; and to your descendants after you I give this land.” ¹³Then God went up from him in the place where He talked with him.

Exodus 32:13
Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, Your servants, to whom You swore by Your own self, and said to them, “I will multiply your descendants as the stars of heaven; and all this land that I have spoken of I give to your descendants, and they shall inherit it forever.” [Genesis 13:15 and 22:17]

Exodus 33:1
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Depart and go up from here, you and the people whom you have brought out of the land of Egypt, to the land of which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, “To your descendants I will give it.’

Deuteronomy 1:8
See, I have set the land before you; go in and possess the land which the LORD swore to your fathers--to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob--to give to them and their descendants after them.’

Deuteronomy 34:4
Then the LORD said to him, “This is the land of which I swore to give Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, “I will give it to your descendants.’ I have caused you to see it with your eyes, but you shall not cross over there.”

Romans 4:3
For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.”

Romans 4:21-23
²¹and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform. ²²And therefore “it was accounted to him for righteousness.”
²³Now it was not written for his sake alone that it was imputed to him,

Galatians 3:6
just as Abraham “believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” [Genesis 15:6]

James 2:23
And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” [Genesis 15:6] And he was called the friend of God.

Genesis 15:5-7
⁵Then He brought him outside and said, “Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.” And He said to him, “So shall your descendants be.”
⁶And he believed in the LORD, and He accounted it to him for righteousness.
⁷Then He said to him, “I am the LORD, who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans, to give you this land to inherit it.”

Isaiah 3:9
The look on their countenance witnesses against them, And they declare their sin as Sodom; They do not hide it. Woe to their soul! For they have brought evil upon themselves.

Jeremiah 23:14
Also I have seen a horrible thing in the prophets of Jerusalem: They commit adultery and walk in lies; They also strengthen the hands of evildoers, So that no one turns back from his wickedness. All of them are like Sodom to Me, And her inhabitants like Gomorrah.

Jeremiah 49:18
As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah And their neighbors,” says the LORD, “No one shall remain there, Nor shall a son of man dwell in it.

Jeremiah 50:40
As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah And their neighbors,” says the LORD, “So no one shall reside there, Nor son of man dwell in it.

Ezekiel 16:45-47

⁴⁷You did not walk in their ways nor act according to their abominations; but, as if that were too little, you became more corrupt than they in all your ways.
⁴⁸”As I live,” says the Lord GOD, “neither your sister Sodom nor her daughters have done as you and your daughters have done. ⁴⁹Look, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughter had pride, fullness of food, and abundance of idleness; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.

Lamentations 4:6
The punishment of the iniquity of the daughter of my people Is greater than the punishment of the sin of Sodom, Which was overthrown in a moment, With no hand to help her!

Amos 4:11
“I overthrew some of you, As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, And you were like a firebrand plucked from the burning; Yet you have not returned to Me,” Says the LORD.

Zephaniah 2:9
Therefore, as I live,” Says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, “Surely Moab shall be like Sodom, And the people of Ammon like Gomorrah-- Overrun with weeds and saltpits, And a perpetual desolation. The residue of My people shall plunder them, And the remnant of My people shall possess them.”

Genesis 19:12-14

¹² Then the men said to Lot, “Have you anyone else here? Son-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whomever you have in the city--take them out of this place! ¹³For we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown great before the face of the LORD, and the LORD has sent us to destroy it.”
¹⁴So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who had married his daughters, and said, “Get up, get out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city!” But to his sons-in-law he seemed to be joking.

Genesis 19:24
Then the LORD rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the LORD out of the heavens.

Deuteronomy 29:23
“The whole land is brimstone, salt, and burning; it is not sown, nor does it bear, nor does any grass grow there, like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in His anger and His wrath.’

Hosea 12:2-4

 ²”The LORD also brings a charge against Judah,
        And will punish Jacob [Jacob means he grasps the heel (figuratively, he deceives )] according to his ways;
        According to his deeds He will recompense him.
        ³He took his brother by the heel in the womb,
        And in his strength he struggled with God.
        ⁴Yes, he struggled with the Angel and prevailed;
        He wept, and sought favor from Him.
        He found Him in Bethel,
        And there He spoke to us--

Genesis 32:22-32
²² And he arose that night and took his two wives, his two female servants, and his eleven sons, and crossed over the ford of Jabbok. ²³He took them, sent them over the brook, and sent over what he had. ²⁴Then Jacob was left alone; and a Man wrestled with him until the breaking of day. ²⁵Now when He saw that He did not prevail against him, He touched the socket of his hip; and the socket of Jacob’s hip was out of joint as He wrestled with him. ²⁶And He said, “Let Me go, for the day breaks.”
But he said, “I will not let You go unless You bless me!”
²⁷So He said to him, “What is your name?”
He said, “Jacob.”
²⁸And He said, “Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; [Literally Prince with God] for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed.”
²⁹Then Jacob asked, saying, “Tell me Your name, I pray.”
And He said, “Why is it that you ask about My name?” And He blessed him there.
³⁰So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: [Literally Face of God ]”For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.” ³¹Just as he crossed over Penuel [Same as Peniel, verse 30] the sun rose on him, and he limped on his hip. ³²Therefore to this day the children of Israel do not eat the muscle that shrank, which is on the hip socket, because He touched the socket of Jacob’s hip in the muscle that shrank.

Joshua 24:32

Joshua 2:10
For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea for you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites who were on the other side of the Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom you utterly destroyed.

Joshua 4:23
for the LORD your God dried up the waters of the Jordan before you until you had crossed over, as the LORD your God did to the Red Sea, which He dried up before us until we had crossed over,

Joshua 24:6-8

⁶”Then I brought your fathers out of Egypt, and you came to the sea; and the Egyptians pursued your fathers with chariots and horsemen to the Red Sea. ⁷So they cried out to the LORD; and He put darkness between you and the Egyptians, brought the sea upon them, and covered them. And your eyes saw what I did in Egypt. Then you dwelt in the wilderness a long time. ⁸And I brought you into the land of the Amorites, who dwelt on the other side of the Jordan, and they fought with you. But I gave them into your hand, that you might possess their land, and I destroyed them from before you.

Isaiah 63:10-12

¹⁰But they rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit;
        So He turned Himself against them as an enemy,
        And He fought against them.
        ¹¹Then he remembered the days of old,
        Moses and his people, saying:
        “Where is He who brought them up out of the sea
        With the shepherd of His flock?
        Where is He who put His Holy Spirit within them,
        ¹²Who led them by the right hand of Moses,
        With His glorious arm,
        Dividing the water before them
        To make for Himself an everlasting name,

Hebrews 11:29
By faith they passed through the Red Sea as by dry land, whereas the Egyptians, attempting to do so, were drowned.

Exodus 14:13-31

¹³And Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever. ¹⁴The LORD will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.”
¹⁵And the LORD said to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward. ¹⁶But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea. ¹⁷And I indeed will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them. So I will gain honor over Pharaoh and over all his army, his chariots, and his horsemen. ¹⁸Then the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gained honor for Myself over Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen.”
¹⁹And the Angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud went from before them and stood behind them. ²⁰So it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel. Thus it was a cloud and darkness to the one, and it gave light by night to the other, so that the one did not come near the other all that night.
²¹Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea into dry land, and the waters were divided. ²²So the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left. ²³And the Egyptians pursued and went after them into the midst of the sea, all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
²⁴Now it came to pass, in the morning watch, that the LORD looked down upon the army of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and cloud, and He troubled the army of the Egyptians. ²⁵And He took off [Samaritan Pentateuch, Septuagint, and Syriac read bound. ] their chariot wheels, so that they drove them with difficulty; and the Egyptians said, “Let us flee from the face of Israel, for the LORD fights for them against the Egyptians.”
²⁶Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come back upon the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen.” ²⁷And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and when the morning appeared, the sea returned to its full depth, while the Egyptians were fleeing into it. So the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea. ²⁸Then the waters returned and covered the chariots, the horsemen, and all the army of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them. Not so much as one of them remained. ²⁹But the children of Israel had walked on dry land in the midst of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
³⁰So the LORD saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore. ³¹Thus Israel saw the great work which the LORD had done in Egypt; so the people feared the LORD, and believed the LORD and His servant Moses.

Deuteronomy 11:4

2 Kings 23:21-23
²¹Then the king commanded all the people, saying, “Keep the Passover to the LORD your God, as it is written in this Book of the Covenant.” ²²Such a Passover surely had never been held since the days of the judges who judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel and the kings of Judah. ²³But in the eighteenth year of King Josiah this Passover was held before the LORD in Jerusalem.

2 Chronicles 30:1-3

¹ And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and also wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, to keep the Passover to the LORD God of Israel. ²For the king and his leaders and all the assembly in Jerusalem had agreed to keep the Passover in the second month. ³For they could not keep it at the regular time, [That is, the first month (compare Leviticus 23:5)]; literally at that time because a sufficient number of priests had not consecrated themselves, nor had the people gathered together at Jerusalem.

2 Chronicles 30:5
So they resolved to make a proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, that they should come to keep the Passover to the LORD God of Israel at Jerusalem, since they had not done it for a long time in the prescribed manner.

And they slaughtered the Passover lambs for all the descendants of the captivity, for their brethren the priests, and for themselves.

Matthew 26:2
“You know that after two days is the Passover, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified.”

¹⁷ Now on the first day of the Feast of the Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying to Him, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”
¹⁸And He said, “Go into the city to a certain man, and say to him, “The Teacher says, “My time is at hand; I will keep the Passover at your house with My disciples.”“‘
¹⁹So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them; and they prepared the Passover.

Mark 14:1
After two days it was the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take Him by trickery and put Him to death.

Luke 22:10-12
¹⁰And He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house which he enters. ¹¹Then you shall say to the master of the house, “The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?”‘ ¹²Then he will show you a large, furnished upper room; there make ready.”

John 13:1
Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.

1 Corinthians 5:7
Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us.[NU-Text omits for us]

Exodus 12:1-20

¹ Now the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, ²”This month shall be your beginning of months; it shall be the first month of the year to you. ³Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying: “On the tenth of this month every man shall take for himself a lamb, according to the house of his father, a lamb for a household. ⁴And if the household is too small for the lamb, let him and his neighbor next to his house take it according to the number of the persons; according to each man’s need you shall make your count for the lamb. ⁵Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year. You may take it from the sheep or from the goats. ⁶Now you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month. Then the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it at twilight. ⁷And they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel of the houses where they eat it. ⁸Then they shall eat the flesh on that night; roasted in fire, with unleavened bread and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. ⁹Do not eat it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roasted in fire--its head with its legs and its entrails. ¹⁰You shall let none of it remain until morning, and what remains of it until morning you shall burn with fire. ¹¹And thus you shall eat it: with a belt on your waist, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand. So you shall eat it in haste. It is the LORD’s Passover.
¹²”For I will pass through the land of Egypt on that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD. ¹³Now the blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.
¹⁴”So this day shall be to you a memorial; and you shall keep it as a feast to the LORD throughout your generations. You shall keep it as a feast by an everlasting ordinance. ¹⁵Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. On the first day you shall remove leaven from your houses. For whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that person shall be cut off from Israel. ¹⁶On the first day there shall be a holy convocation, and on the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation for you. No manner of work shall be done on them; but that which everyone must eat--that only may be prepared by you. ¹⁷So you shall observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for on this same day I will have brought your armies out of the land of Egypt. Therefore you shall observe this day throughout your generations as an everlasting ordinance. ¹⁸In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread, until the twenty-first day of the month at evening. ¹⁹For seven days no leaven shall be found in your houses, since whoever eats what is leavened, that same person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a stranger or a native of the land. ²⁰You shall eat nothing leavened; in all your dwellings you shall eat unleavened bread.”‘

Numbers 9:1-3

¹ Now the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying: ²”Let the children of Israel keep the Passover at its appointed time. ³On the fourteenth day of this month, at twilight, you shall keep it at its appointed time. According to all its rites and ceremonies you shall keep it.”

Numbers 9:3-5

Exodus 16:4-16

⁴Then the LORD said to Moses, “Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you. And the people shall go out and gather a certain quota every day, that I may test them, whether they will walk in My law or not. ⁵And it shall be on the sixth day that they shall prepare what they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily.”
⁶Then Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, “At evening you shall know that the LORD has brought you out of the land of Egypt. ⁷And in the morning you shall see the glory of the LORD; for He hears your complaints against the LORD. But what are we, that you complain against us?” ⁸Also Moses said, “This shall be seen when the LORD gives you meat to eat in the evening, and in the morning bread to the full; for the LORD hears your complaints which you make against Him. And what are we? Your complaints are not against us but against the LORD.”
⁹Then Moses spoke to Aaron, “Say to all the congregation of the children of Israel, “Come near before the LORD, for He has heard your complaints.”‘ ¹⁰Now it came to pass, as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud.
¹¹And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ¹²”I have heard the complaints of the children of Israel. Speak to them, saying, “At twilight you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread. And you shall know that I am the LORD your God.”‘
¹³So it was that quails came up at evening and covered the camp, and in the morning the dew lay all around the camp. ¹⁴And when the layer of dew lifted, there, on the surface of the wilderness, was a small round substance, as fine as frost on the ground. ¹⁵So when the children of Israel saw it, they said to one another, “What is it?” For they did not know what it was.
And Moses said to them, “This is the bread which the LORD has given you to eat. ¹⁶This is the thing which the LORD has commanded: “Let every man gather it according to each one’s need, one omer for each person, according to the number of persons; let every man take for those who are in his tent.”

³²Then Moses said, “This is the thing which the LORD has commanded: “Fill an omer with it, to be kept for your generations, that they may see the bread with which I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.”‘ ³³And Moses said to Aaron, “Take a pot and put an omer of manna in it, and lay it up before the LORD, to be kept for your generations.” ³⁴As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.

Exodus 16:35
And the children of Israel ate manna forty years, until they came to an inhabited land; they ate manna until they came to the border of the land of Canaan.

Deuteronomy 8:15-17
¹⁵who led you through that great and terrible wilderness, in which were fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty land where there was no water; who brought water for you out of the flinty rock; ¹⁶who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers did not know, that He might humble you and that He might test you, to do you good in the end-- ¹⁷then you say in your heart, “My power and the might of my hand have gained me this wealth.’

¹⁶For all who do such things, all who behave unrighteously, are an abomination to the LORD your God.
¹⁷ “Remember what Amalek did to you on the way as you were coming out of Egypt, ¹⁸how he met you on the way and attacked your rear ranks, all the stragglers at your rear, when you were tired and weary; and he did not fear God.

⁸They lie down by every altar on clothes taken in pledge,
        And drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god.
        ⁹”Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them,
        Whose height was like the height of the cedars,
        And he was as strong as the oaks;
        Yet I destroyed his fruit above
        And his roots beneath.
        ¹⁰Also it was I who brought you up from the land of Egypt,
        And led you forty years through the wilderness,
        To possess the land of the Amorite.

Deuteronomy 3:8-11

⁸”And at that time we took the land from the hand of the two kings of the Amorites who were on this side of the Jordan, from the River Arnon to Mount Hermon ⁹(the Sidonians call Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir), ¹⁰all the cities of the plain, all Gilead, and all Bashan, as far as Salcah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
¹¹”For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the giants. [Hebrew rephaim] Indeed his bedstead was an iron bedstead. (Is it not in Rabbah of the people of Ammon?) Nine cubits is its length and four cubits its width, according to the standard cubit.

Nehemiah 13:1-3

¹ On that day they read from the Book of Moses in the hearing of the people, and in it was found written that no Ammonite or Moabite should ever come into the assembly of God, ²because they had not met the children of Israel with bread and water, but hired Balaam against them to curse them. However, our God turned the curse into a blessing. ³So it was, when they had heard the Law, that they separated all the mixed multitude from Israel.

²⁵ Then Jeroboam built Shechem in the mountains of Ephraim, and dwelt there. Also he went out from there and built Penuel. ²⁶And Jeroboam said in his heart, “Now the kingdom may return to the house of David: ²⁷If these people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then the heart of this people will turn back to their lord, Rehoboam king of Judah, and they will kill me and go back to Rehoboam king of Judah.”
²⁸Therefore the king asked advice, made two calves of gold, and said to the people, “It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem. Here are your gods, O Israel, which brought you up from the land of Egypt!” ²⁹And he set up one in Bethel, and the other he put in Dan. ³⁰Now this thing became a sin, for the people went to worship before the one as far as Dan. ³¹He made shrines [Literally a house] on the high places, and made priests from every class of people, who were not of the sons of Levi.

James 5:17-18

¹⁴And he said, “I have been very zealous for the LORD God of hosts; because the children of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I alone am left; and they seek to take my life.”

2 Kings 1:8

2 Kings 1:1-17

¹ Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab.
²Now Ahaziah fell through the lattice of his upper room in Samaria, and was injured; so he sent messengers and said to them, “Go, inquire of Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I shall recover from this injury.” ³But the angel [Or Angel ]of the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite, “Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say to them, “Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are going to inquire of Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron?’ ⁴Now therefore, thus says the LORD: “You shall not come down from the bed to which you have gone up, but you shall surely die.”‘ So Elijah departed.
⁵And when the messengers returned to him, he said to them, “Why have you come back?”
⁶So they said to him, “A man came up to meet us, and said to us, “Go, return to the king who sent you, and say to him, “Thus says the LORD: “Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are sending to inquire of Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you shall not come down from the bed to which you have gone up, but you shall surely die.”““
⁷Then he said to them, “What kind of man was it who came up to meet you and told you these words?”
⁸So they answered him, “A hairy man wearing a leather belt around his waist.”
And he said, “It is Elijah the Tishbite.”
⁹Then the king sent to him a captain of fifty with his fifty men. So he went up to him; and there he was, sitting on the top of a hill. And he spoke to him: “Man of God, the king has said, “Come down!”‘
¹⁰So Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty, “If I am a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men.” And fire came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty. ¹¹Then he sent to him another captain of fifty with his fifty men.
And he answered and said to him: “Man of God, thus has the king said, “Come down quickly!”‘
¹²So Elijah answered and said to them, “If I am a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men.” And the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty.
¹³Again, he sent a third captain of fifty with his fifty men. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and pleaded with him, and said to him: “Man of God, please let my life and the life of these fifty servants of yours be precious in your sight. ¹⁴Look, fire has come down from heaven and burned up the first two captains of fifties with their fifties. But let my life now be precious in your sight.”
¹⁵And the angel [Or Angel] of the LORD said to Elijah, “Go down with him; do not be afraid of him.” So he arose and went down with him to the king. ¹⁶Then he said to him, “Thus says the LORD: “Because you have sent messengers to inquire of Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron, is it because there is no God in Israel to inquire of His word? Therefore you shall not come down from the bed to which you have gone up, but you shall surely die.”‘
¹⁷So Ahaziah died according to the word of the LORD which Elijah had spoken. Because he had no son, Jehoram [The son of Ahab king of Israel (compare 3:1)] became king in his place, in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah.

³⁹But He answered and said to them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. ⁴⁰For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. ⁴¹The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.

¹ Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, ²”Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it; for their wickedness has come up before Me.”

Nehemiah 9:5-31
⁵And the Levites, Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said:
        “Stand up and bless the LORD your God
        Forever and ever!
        “Blessed be Your glorious name,
        Which is exalted above all blessing and praise!
        ⁶You alone are the LORD;
        You have made heaven,
        The heaven of heavens, with all their host,
        The earth and everything on it,
        The seas and all that is in them,
        And You preserve them all.
        The host of heaven worships You.

        ⁷”You are the LORD God,
        Who chose Abram,
        And brought him out of Ur of the Chaldeans,
        And gave him the name Abraham;
        ⁸You found his heart faithful before You,
        And made a covenant with him
        To give the land of the Canaanites,
        The Hittites, the Amorites,
        The Perizzites, the Jebusites,
        And the Girgashites--
        To give it to his descendants.
        You have performed Your words,
        For You are righteous.

        ⁹”You saw the affliction of our fathers in Egypt,
        And heard their cry by the Red Sea.
        ¹⁰You showed signs and wonders against Pharaoh,
        Against all his servants,
        And against all the people of his land.
        For You knew that they acted proudly against them.
        So You made a name for Yourself, as it is this day.
        ¹¹And You divided the sea before them,
        So that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land;
        And their persecutors You threw into the deep,
        As a stone into the mighty waters.
        ¹²Moreover You led them by day with a cloudy pillar,
        And by night with a pillar of fire,
        To give them light on the road
        Which they should travel.

        ¹³”You came down also on Mount Sinai,
        And spoke with them from heaven,
        And gave them just ordinances and true laws,
        Good statutes and commandments.
        ¹⁴You made known to them Your holy Sabbath,
        And commanded them precepts, statutes and laws,
        By the hand of Moses Your servant.
        ¹⁵You gave them bread from heaven for their hunger,
        And brought them water out of the rock for their thirst,
        And told them to go in to possess the land
        Which You had sworn to give them.

        ¹⁶”But they and our fathers acted proudly,
        Hardened their necks,
        And did not heed Your commandments.
        ¹⁷They refused to obey,
        And they were not mindful of Your wonders
        That You did among them.
        But they hardened their necks,
        And in their rebellion [Following Masoretic Text and Vulgate; Septuagint reads in Egypt]
        They appointed a leader
        To return to their bondage.
        But You are God,
        Ready to pardon,
        Gracious and merciful,
        Slow to anger,
        Abundant in kindness,
        And did not forsake them.

        ¹⁸”Even when they made a molded calf for themselves,         And said, “This is your god
        That brought you up out of Egypt,’
        And worked great provocations,
        ¹⁹Yet in Your manifold mercies
        You did not forsake them in the wilderness.
        The pillar of the cloud did not depart from them by day,
        To lead them on the road;
        Nor the pillar of fire by night,
        To show them light,
        And the way they should go.
        ²⁰You also gave Your good Spirit to instruct them,
        And did not withhold Your manna from their mouth,
        And gave them water for their thirst.
        ²¹Forty years You sustained them in the wilderness;
        They lacked nothing;
        Their clothes did not wear out [Compare Deuteronomy 29:5]
        And their feet did not swell.

        ²²”Moreover You gave them kingdoms and nations,
        And divided them into districts. [Literally corners Following Masoretic Text and Vulgate; Septuagint omits The land of]
        So they took possession of the land of Sihon,
        The land of [Literally corners Following Masoretic Text and Vulgate; Septuagint omits The land of] the king of Heshbon,]
        And the land of Og king of Bashan.
        ²³You also multiplied their children as the stars of heaven,
        And brought them into the land
        Which You had told their fathers
        To go in and possess.
        ²⁴So the people went in
        And possessed the land;
        You subdued before them the inhabitants of the land,
        The Canaanites,
        And gave them into their hands,
        With their kings
        And the people of the land,
        That they might do with them as they wished.
        ²⁵And they took strong cities and a rich land,
        And possessed houses full of all goods,
        Cisterns already dug, vineyards, olive groves,
        And fruit trees in abundance.
        So they ate and were filled and grew fat,
        And delighted themselves in Your great goodness.

        ²⁶”Nevertheless they were disobedient
        And rebelled against You,
        Cast Your law behind their backs
        And killed Your prophets, who testified against them
        To turn them to Yourself;
        And they worked great provocations.
        ²⁷Therefore You delivered them into the hand of their enemies,
        Who oppressed them;
        And in the time of their trouble,
        When they cried to You,
        You heard from heaven;
        And according to Your abundant mercies
        You gave them deliverers who saved them
        From the hand of their enemies.

        ²⁸”But after they had rest,
        They again did evil before You.
        Therefore You left them in the hand of their enemies,
        So that they had dominion over them;
        Yet when they returned and cried out to You,
        You heard from heaven;
        And many times You delivered them according to Your mercies,
        ²⁹And testified against them,
        That You might bring them back to Your law.
        Yet they acted proudly,
        And did not heed Your commandments,
        But sinned against Your judgments,
        “Which if a man does, he shall live by them.’ [Leviticus 18:5]
        And they shrugged their shoulders,
        Stiffened their necks,
        And would not hear.
        ³⁰Yet for many years You had patience with them,
        And testified against them by Your Spirit in Your prophets.
        Yet they would not listen;
        Therefore You gave them into the hand of the peoples of the lands.
        ³¹Nevertheless in Your great mercy
        You did not utterly consume them nor forsake them;
        For You are God, gracious and merciful.

        For by the Ascent of Luhith
        They will go up with weeping;
        For in the way of Horonaim
        They will raise up a cry of destruction,

Jeremiah 48:1-47

¹ Against Moab.
Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel:
        “Woe to Nebo!
        For it is plundered,
        Kirjathaim is shamed and taken;
        The high stronghold [Hebrew Misgab] is shamed and dismayed--
        ²No more praise of Moab.
        In Heshbon they have devised evil against her:
        “Come, and let us cut her off as a nation.’
        You also shall be cut down, O Madmen! [A city of Moab]
        The sword shall pursue you;
        ³A voice of crying shall be from Horonaim:
        “Plundering and great destruction!’
        ⁴”Moab is destroyed;
        Her little ones have caused a cry to be heard; [Following Masoretic Text, Targum, and Vulgate; Septuagint reads Proclaim it in Zoar]
        ⁵For in the Ascent of Luhith they ascend with continual weeping;
        For in the descent of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.
        ⁶”Flee, save your lives!
        And be like the juniper [Or Aroer, a city of Moab in the wilderness]
        ⁷For because you have trusted in your works and your treasures,
        You also shall be taken.
        And Chemosh shall go forth into captivity,
        His priests and his princes together.
        ⁸And the plunderer shall come against every city;
        No one shall escape.
        The valley also shall perish,
        And the plain shall be destroyed,
        As the LORD has spoken.

        ⁹”Give wings to Moab,
        That she may flee and get away;
        For her cities shall be desolate,
        Without any to dwell in them.
        ¹⁰Cursed is he who does the work of the LORD deceitfully,
        And cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.
        ¹¹”Moab has been at ease from his [The Hebrew uses masculine and feminine pronouns interchangeably in this chapter] youth;
        He has settled on his dregs,
        And has not been emptied from vessel to vessel,
        Nor has he gone into captivity.
        Therefore his taste remained in him,
        And his scent has not changed.
        ¹²”Therefore behold, the days are coming,” says the LORD,
        “That I shall send him wine-workers
        Who will tip him over
        And empty his vessels
        And break the bottles.
        ¹³Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh,
        As the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel, their confidence.
        ¹⁴”How can you say, “We are mighty
        And strong men for the war’?
        ¹⁵Moab is plundered and gone up from her cities;
        Her chosen young men have gone down to the slaughter,” says the King,
        Whose name is the LORD of hosts.
        ¹⁶”The calamity of Moab is near at hand,
        And his affliction comes quickly.
        ¹⁷Bemoan him, all you who are around him;
        And all you who know his name,
        Say, “How the strong staff is broken,
        The beautiful rod!’
        ¹⁸”O daughter inhabiting Dibon,
        Come down from your glory,
        And sit in thirst;
        For the plunderer of Moab has come against you,
        He has destroyed your strongholds.
        ¹⁹O inhabitant of Aroer,
        Stand by the way and watch;
        Ask him who flees
        And her who escapes;
        Say, “What has happened?’
        ²⁰Moab is shamed, for he is broken down.
        Wail and cry!
        Tell it in Arnon, that Moab is plundered.
        ²¹”And judgment has come on the plain country:
        On Holon and Jahzah and Mephaath,
        ²²On Dibon and Nebo and Beth Diblathaim,
        ²³On Kirjathaim and Beth Gamul and Beth Meon,
        ²⁴On Kerioth and Bozrah,
        On all the cities of the land of Moab,
        Far or near.
        ²⁵The horn of Moab is cut off,
        And his arm is broken,” says the LORD.
        ²⁶”Make him drunk,
        Because he exalted himself against the LORD.
        Moab shall wallow in his vomit,
        And he shall also be in derision.
        ²⁷For was not Israel a derision to you?
        Was he found among thieves?
        For whenever you speak of him,
        You shake your head in scorn.
        ²⁸You who dwell in Moab,
        Leave the cities and dwell in the rock,
        And be like the dove which makes her nest
        In the sides of the cave’s mouth.
        ²⁹”We have heard the pride of Moab
        (He is exceedingly proud),
        Of his loftiness and arrogance and pride,
        And of the haughtiness of his heart.”
        ³⁰”I know his wrath,” says the LORD,
        “But it is not right;
        His lies have made nothing right.
        ³¹Therefore I will wail for Moab,
        And I will cry out for all Moab;
        I [Following Dead Sea Scrolls, Septuagint, and Vulgate; Masoretic Text reads He] will mourn for the men of Kir Heres.
        ³²O vine of Sibmah! I will weep for you with the weeping of Jazer.
        Your plants have gone over the sea,
        They reach to the sea of Jazer.
        The plunderer has fallen on your summer fruit and your vintage.
        ³³Joy and gladness are taken
        From the plentiful field
        And from the land of Moab;
        I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses;
        No one will tread with joyous shouting--
        Not joyous shouting!
        ³⁴”From the cry of Heshbon to Elealeh and to Jahaz
        They have uttered their voice,
        From Zoar to Horonaim,
        Like a three-year-old heifer; [Or The Third Eglath, an unknown city (compare Isaiah 15:5)]
        For the waters of Nimrim also shall be desolate.
        ³⁵”Moreover,” says the LORD,
        “I will cause to cease in Moab
        The one who offers sacrifices in the high places
        And burns incense to his gods.
        ³⁶Therefore My heart shall wail like flutes for Moab,
        And like flutes My heart shall wail
        For the men of Kir Heres.
        Therefore the riches they have acquired have perished.
        ³⁷”For every head shall be bald, and every beard clipped;
        On all the hands shall be cuts, and on the loins sackcloth--
        ³⁸A general lamentation
        On all the housetops of Moab,
        And in its streets;
        For I have broken Moab like a vessel in which is no pleasure,” says the LORD.
        ³⁹”They shall wail:
        “How she is broken down!
        How Moab has turned her back with shame!’
        So Moab shall be a derision
        And a dismay to all those about her.”
⁴⁰For thus says the LORD:
        “Behold, one shall fly like an eagle,
        And spread his wings over Moab.
        ⁴¹Kerioth is taken,
        And the strongholds are surprised;
        The mighty men’s hearts in Moab on that day shall be
        Like the heart of a woman in birth pangs.
        ⁴²And Moab shall be destroyed as a people,
        Because he exalted himself against the LORD.
        ⁴³Fear and the pit and the snare shall be upon you,
        O inhabitant of Moab,” says the LORD.
        ⁴⁴”He who flees from the fear shall fall into the pit,
        And he who gets out of the pit shall be caught in the snare.
        For upon Moab, upon it I will bring
        The year of their punishment,” says the LORD.
        ⁴⁵”Those who fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon
        Because of exhaustion.
        But a fire shall come out of Heshbon,
        A flame from the midst of Sihon,
        And shall devour the brow of Moab,
        The crown of the head of the sons of tumult.
        ⁴⁶Woe to you, O Moab!
        The people of Chemosh perish;
        For your sons have been taken captive,
        And your daughters captive.
        ⁴⁷”Yet I will bring back the captives of Moab
        In the latter days,” says the LORD.
Thus far is the judgment of Moab.

1 Kings 16:32
Then he set up an altar for Baal in the temple of Baal, which he had built in Samaria.

1 Kings 18:17-19

¹⁷Then it happened, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said to him, “Is that you, O troubler of Israel?”
¹⁸And he answered, “I have not troubled Israel, but you and your father’s house have, in that you have forsaken the commandments of the LORD and have followed the Baals. ¹⁹Now therefore, send and gather all Israel to me on Mount Carmel, the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal, and the four hundred prophets of Asherah, [A Canaanite goddess] who eat at Jezebel’s table.”

1 Kings 18:20-40

²⁰ So Ahab sent for all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together on Mount Carmel. ²¹And Elijah came to all the people, and said, “How long will you falter between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him.” But the people answered him not a word. ²²Then Elijah said to the people, “I alone am left a prophet of the LORD; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred and fifty men. ²³Therefore let them give us two bulls; and let them choose one bull for themselves, cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, but put no fire under it; and I will prepare the other bull, and lay it on the wood, but put no fire under it. ²⁴Then you call on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD; and the God who answers by fire, He is God.”
So all the people answered and said, “It is well spoken.”
²⁵Now Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, “Choose one bull for yourselves and prepare it first, for you are many; and call on the name of your god, but put no fire under it.”
²⁶So they took the bull which was given them, and they prepared it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even till noon, saying, “O Baal, hear us!” But there was no voice; no one answered. Then they leaped about the altar which they had made.
²⁷And so it was, at noon, that Elijah mocked them and said, “Cry aloud, for he is a god; either he is meditating, or he is busy, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he is sleeping and must be awakened.” ²⁸So they cried aloud, and cut themselves, as was their custom, with knives and lances, until the blood gushed out on them. ²⁹And when midday was past, they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice. But there was no voice; no one answered, no one paid attention.
³⁰Then Elijah said to all the people, “Come near to me.” So all the people came near to him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that was broken down. ³¹And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the LORD had come, saying, “Israel shall be your name.” [Genesis 32:28] ³²Then with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD; and he made a trench around the altar large enough to hold two seahs of seed. ³³And he put the wood in order, cut the bull in pieces, and laid it on the wood, and said, “Fill four waterpots with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice and on the wood.” ³⁴Then he said, “Do it a second time,” and they did it a second time; and he said, “Do it a third time,” and they did it a third time. ³⁵So the water ran all around the altar; and he also filled the trench with water.
³⁶And it came to pass, at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near and said, “LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, let it be known this day that You are God in Israel and I am Your servant, and that I have done all these things at Your word. ³⁷Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that You are the LORD God, and that You have turned their hearts back to You again.”
³⁸Then the fire of the LORD fell and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood and the stones and the dust, and it licked up the water that was in the trench. ³⁹Now when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces; and they said, “The LORD, He is God! The LORD, He is God!”
⁴⁰And Elijah said to them, “Seize the prophets of Baal! Do not let one of them escape!” So they seized them; and Elijah brought them down to the Brook Kishon and executed them there.

1 Kings 19:18
Yet I have reserved seven thousand in Israel, all whose knees have not bowed to Baal, and every mouth that has not kissed him.”

2 Kings 10:19
Now therefore, call to me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests. Let no one be missing, for I have a great sacrifice for Baal. Whoever is missing shall not live.” But Jehu acted deceptively, with the intent of destroying the worshipers of Baal.

2 Kings 10:28
Thus Jehu destroyed Baal from Israel.

2 Kings 17:16
So they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, made for themselves a molded image and two calves, made a wooden image and worshiped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.

2 Kings 21:3

2 Kings 23:4
And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, the priests of the second order, and the doorkeepers, to bring out of the temple of the LORD all the articles that were made for Baal, for Asherah, [A Canaanite goddess] and for all the host of heaven; [The gods of the Assyrians] and he burned them outside Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried their ashes to Bethel.

¹⁷Then certain of the elders of the land rose up and spoke to all the assembly of the people, saying: ¹⁸”Micah of Moresheth prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and spoke to all the people of Judah, saying, “Thus says the LORD of hosts:
        “Zion shall be plowed like a field,
        Jerusalem shall become heaps of ruins,
        And the mountain of the temple [Literally house]
        Like the bare hills of the forest.”‘
19Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah ever put him to death? Did he not fear the LORD and seek the LORD’s favor? And the LORD relented concerning the doom which He had pronounced against them. But we are doing great evil against ourselves.”

Lamentations 2:9

Matthew 19:3-5

³The Pharisees also came to Him, testing Him, and saying to Him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for just any reason?”
⁴And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who made [NU-Text reads created] them at the beginning “made them male and female,’ [Genesis 1:27; 5:2] ⁵and said, “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’?

Matthew 24:37-39

³⁷But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. ³⁸For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, ³⁹and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

Luke 17:26-28

²⁶And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: ²⁷They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. ²⁸Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;

Genesis 6:8-10

⁸But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
⁹ This is the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God. ¹⁰And Noah begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

Genesis 7:11
In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

Genesis 9:16-18

¹⁶The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.” ¹⁷And God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth.”
¹⁸ Now the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And Ham was the father of Canaan.

Genesis 9:19
These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populated.

Genesis 9:29
So all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.

Genesis 10:1-2

John 8:31-59

³¹ Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. ³²And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
³³They answered Him, “We are Abraham’s descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can You say, “You will be made free’?”
³⁴Jesus answered them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin. ³⁵And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abides forever. ³⁶Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

³⁷ “I know that you are Abraham’s descendants, but you seek to kill Me, because My word has no place in you. ³⁸I speak what I have seen with My Father, and you do what you have seen with [NU-Text reads heard from] your father.”
³⁹They answered and said to Him, “Abraham is our father.”
Jesus said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children, you would do the works of Abraham. ⁴⁰But now you seek to kill Me, a Man who has told you the truth which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this. ⁴¹You do the deeds of your father.”
Then they said to Him, “We were not born of fornication; we have one Father--God.”
⁴²Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God; nor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me. ⁴³Why do you not understand My speech? Because you are not able to listen to My word. ⁴⁴You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. ⁴⁵But because I tell the truth, you do not believe Me. ⁴⁶Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I tell the truth, why do you not believe Me? ⁴⁷He who is of God hears God’s words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God.”

⁴⁸ Then the Jews answered and said to Him, “Do we not say rightly that You are a Samaritan and have a demon?”
⁴⁹Jesus answered, “I do not have a demon; but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me. ⁵⁰And I do not seek My own glory; there is One who seeks and judges. ⁵¹Most assuredly, I say to you, if anyone keeps My word he shall never see death.”
⁵²Then the Jews said to Him, “Now we know that You have a demon! Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and You say, “If anyone keeps My word he shall never taste death.’ ⁵³Are You greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? And the prophets are dead. Who do You make Yourself out to be?”
⁵⁴Jesus answered, “If I honor Myself, My honor is nothing. It is My Father who honors Me, of whom you say that He is your [NU-Text and M-Text read our] God. ⁵⁵Yet you have not known Him, but I know Him. And if I say, “I do not know Him,’ I shall be a liar like you; but I do know Him and keep His word. ⁵⁶Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.”
⁵⁷Then the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?”
⁵⁸Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”
⁵⁹Then they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple, [NU-Text omits the rest of this verse] going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

John 8:56
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.”

¹⁴And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, “I AM has sent me to you.”‘ ¹⁵Moreover God said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel: “The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My name forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.’ ¹⁶Go and gather the elders of Israel together, and say to them, “The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared to me, saying, “I have surely visited you and seen what is done to you in Egypt;

that you may love the LORD your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.”

Luke 17:28-32
²⁸Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; ²⁹but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. ³⁰Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

²⁶But his wife looked back behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

But even Moses showed in the burning bush passage that the dead are raised, when he called the Lord “the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ [Exodus 3:6, 15]

John 5:45-47

⁴⁵Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one who accuses you--Moses, in whom you trust. ⁴⁶For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me. ⁴⁷But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”

Exodus 3:2

⁵Then He said, “Do not draw near this place. Take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground.” ⁶Moreover He said, “I am the God of your father--the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look upon God.
⁷And the LORD said: “I have surely seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.

Exodus 3:14-16

1 Samuel 21:2-6
²So David said to Ahimelech the priest, “The king has ordered me on some business, and said to me, “Do not let anyone know anything about the business on which I send you, or what I have commanded you.’ And I have directed my young men to such and such a place. ³Now therefore, what have you on hand? Give me five loaves of bread in my hand, or whatever can be found.” ⁴And the priest answered David and said, “There is no common bread on hand; but there is holy bread, if the young men have at least kept themselves from women.”
⁵Then David answered the priest, and said to him, “Truly, women have been kept from us about three days since I came out. And the vessels of the young men are holy, and the bread is in effect common, even though it was consecrated in the vessel this day.”
⁶So the priest gave him holy bread; for there was no bread there but the showbread which had been taken from before the LORD, in order to put hot bread in its place on the day when it was taken away.

¹ The word of the LORD came to me again, saying, ²”Son of man, say to the prince of Tyre, “Thus says the Lord GOD:
        “Because your heart is lifted up,
        And you say, “I am a god,
        I sit in the seat of gods,
        In the midst of the seas,’
        Yet you are a man, and not a god,
        Though you set your heart as the heart of a god
        ³(Behold, you are wiser than Daniel!
        There is no secret that can be hidden from you!
        ⁴With your wisdom and your understanding
        You have gained riches for yourself,
        And gathered gold and silver into your treasuries;
        ⁵By your great wisdom in trade you have increased your riches,
        And your heart is lifted up because of your riches),”

⁶”Therefore thus says the Lord GOD:
        “Because you have set your heart as the heart of a god,
        ⁷Behold, therefore, I will bring strangers against you,
        The most terrible of the nations;

        ¹⁰You shall die the death of the uncircumcised
        By the hand of aliens;
        For I have spoken,” says the Lord GOD.”‘

¹¹ Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying, ¹²”Son of man, take up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, and say to him, “Thus says the Lord GOD:
        “You were the seal of perfection,
        Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
        ¹³You were in Eden, the garden of God;
        Every precious stone was your covering:
        The sardius, topaz, and diamond,
        Beryl, onyx, and jasper,
        Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold.
        The workmanship of your timbrels and pipes
        Was prepared for you on the day you were created.

        I established you;
        You were on the holy mountain of God;
        You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones.
        ¹⁵You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created,
        Till iniquity was found in you.

        ¹⁶”By the abundance of your trading
        You became filled with violence within,
        And you sinned;
        Therefore I cast you as a profane thing
        Out of the mountain of God;
        And I destroyed you, O covering cherub,
        From the midst of the fiery stones.

        ¹⁷”Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty;
        You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor;
        I cast you to the ground,
        I laid you before kings,
        That they might gaze at you.

        ¹⁸”You defiled your sanctuaries
        By the multitude of your iniquities,
        By the iniquity of your trading;
        Therefore I brought fire from your midst;
        It devoured you,
        And I turned you to ashes upon the earth
        In the sight of all who saw you.
        ¹⁹All who knew you among the peoples are astonished at you;
        You have become a horror,
        And shall be no more forever.”“‘

²⁰ Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, ²¹”Son of man, set your face toward Sidon, and prophesy against her, ²²and say, “Thus says the Lord GOD:
        “Behold, I am against you, O Sidon;
        I will be glorified in your midst;
        And they shall know that I am the LORD,
        When I execute judgments in her and am hallowed in her.
        ²³For I will send pestilence upon her,
        And blood in her streets;
        The wounded shall be judged in her midst
        By the sword against her on every side;
        Then they shall know that I am the LORD.

²⁴”And there shall no longer be a pricking brier or a painful thorn for the house of Israel from among all who are around them, who despise them. Then they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.”

 

Luke 4:24-27

²⁴Then He said, “Assuredly, I say to you, no prophet is accepted in his own country. ²⁵But I tell you truly, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, and there was a great famine throughout all the land; ²⁶but to none of them was Elijah sent except to Zarephath, [Greek Sarepta] in the region of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow. ²⁷And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian.”

1 Kings 17:8-10

⁸ Then the word of the LORD came to him, saying, ⁹”Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there. See, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you.” ¹⁰So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, indeed a widow was there gathering sticks. And he called to her and said, “Please bring me a little water in a cup, that I may drink.”

Matthew 12:39-41
³⁹But He answered and said to them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. ⁴⁰For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. ⁴¹The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.

Matthew 16:4
A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign shall be given to it except the sign of the prophet [NU-Text omits the prophet] Jonah.” And He left them and departed.

Luke 11:29-32

²⁹ And while the crowds were thickly gathered together, He began to say, “This is an evil generation. It seeks a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah the prophet. [NU-Text omits the prophet] ³⁰For as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the Son of Man will be to this generation. ³¹The queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a greater than Solomon is here. ³²The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.

2 Kings 14:25
He restored the territory of Israel from the entrance of Hamath to the Sea of the Arabah, according to the word of the LORD God of Israel, which He had spoken through His servant Jonah the son of Amittai, the prophet who was from Gath Hepher.

Jonah 1:1-2

¹ Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, ²”Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it; for their wickedness has come up before Me.”

Jonah 1:17
Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.

Matthew 24:15
“Therefore when you see the “abomination of desolation,’ [Daniel 11:31; 12:11] spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand),

Mark 13:14
“So when you see the “abomination of desolation,’ [Daniel 11:31; 12:11] spoken of by Daniel the prophet, [NU-Text omits spoken of by Daniel the prophet] standing where it ought not” (let the reader understand), “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

Daniel 11:31
And forces [Literally arms] shall be mustered by him, and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation.

Daniel 12:11
“And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.

Matthew 11:10
For this is he of whom it is written: “Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.’ [Malachi 3:1]

Mark 1:2
As it is written in the Prophets:[NU-Text reads Isaiah the prophet] “Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.”

Luke 7:27
This is he of whom it is written: “Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.’ [Malachi 3:1]

Malachi 3:1
“Behold, I send My messenger, And he will prepare the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, Will suddenly come to His temple, Even the Messenger of the covenant, In whom you delight. Behold, He is coming,” Says the LORD of hosts.

Matthew 15:8
“These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And [NU-Text omits draw near to Me with their mouth, And] honor Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me.

Mark 7:6
He answered and said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written: “This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me.

Isaiah 29:13
Therefore the Lord said: “Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths And honor Me with their lips, But have removed their hearts far from Me, And their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men,

Luke 4:27
And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian.”

2 Kings 2:15
Now when the sons of the prophets who were from Jericho saw him, they said, “The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha.” And they came to meet him, and bowed to the ground before him.

2 Kings 3:11
But Jehoshaphat said, “Is there no prophet of the LORD here, that we may inquire of the LORD by him?” So one of the servants of the king of Israel answered and said, “Elisha the son of Shaphat is here, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.”

Acts 7:1-60
¹ Then the high priest said, “Are these things so?”
²And he said, “Brethren and fathers, listen: The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran, ³and said to him, “Get out of your country and from your relatives, and come to a land that I will show you.’ [Genesis 12:1-3] ⁴Then he came out of the land of the Chaldeans and dwelt in Haran. And from there, when his father was dead, He moved him to this land in which you now dwell. ⁵And God gave him no inheritance in it, not even enough to set his foot on. But even when Abraham had no child, He promised to give it to him for a possession, and to his descendants after him. ⁶But God spoke in this way: that his descendants would dwell in a foreign land, and that they would bring them into bondage and oppress them four hundred years. ⁷”And the nation to whom they will be in bondage I will judge,’ [Genesis 15:14] said God, “and after that they shall come out and serve Me in this place.’ [Exodus 3:12]

⁸Then He gave him the covenant of circumcision; and so Abraham begot Isaac and circumcised him on the eighth day; and Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot the twelve patriarchs.

⁹ “And the patriarchs, becoming envious, sold Joseph into Egypt. But God was with him ¹⁰and delivered him out of all his troubles, and gave him favor and wisdom in the presence of Pharaoh, king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house. ¹¹Now a famine and great trouble came over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and our fathers found no sustenance. ¹²But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first. ¹³And the second time Joseph was made known to his brothers, and Joseph’s family became known to the Pharaoh. ¹⁴Then Joseph sent and called his father Jacob and all his relatives to him, seventy-five [Or seventy (compare Exodus 1:5)] people. ¹⁵So Jacob went down to Egypt; and he died, he and our fathers. ¹⁶And they were carried back to Shechem and laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a sum of money from the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem.

¹⁷ “But when the time of the promise drew near which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt ¹⁸till another king arose who did not know Joseph. ¹⁹This man dealt treacherously with our people, and oppressed our forefathers, making them expose their babies, so that they might not live. ²⁰At this time Moses was born, and was well pleasing to God; and he was brought up in his father’s house for three months. ²¹But when he was set out, Pharaoh’s daughter took him away and brought him up as her own son. ²²And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and deeds.
²³”Now when he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren, the children of Israel. ²⁴And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended and avenged him who was oppressed, and struck down the Egyptian. ²⁵For he supposed that his brethren would have understood that God would deliver them by his hand, but they did not understand. ²⁶And the next day he appeared to two of them as they were fighting, and tried to reconcile them, saying, “Men, you are brethren; why do you wrong one another?’ ²⁷But he who did his neighbor wrong pushed him away, saying, “Who made you a ruler and a judge over us? ²⁸Do you want to kill me as you did the Egyptian yesterday?’ [Exodus 2:14] ²⁹Then, at this saying, Moses fled and became a dweller in the land of Midian, where he had two sons.
³⁰”And when forty years had passed, an Angel of the Lord [NU-Text omits of the Lord] appeared to him in a flame of fire in a bush, in the wilderness of Mount Sinai. ³¹When Moses saw it, he marveled at the sight; and as he drew near to observe, the voice of the Lord came to him, ³²saying, “I am the God of your fathers--the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ [Exodus 3:6, 15] And Moses trembled and dared not look. ³³”Then the LORD said to him, “Take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground. ³⁴I have surely seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt; I have heard their groaning and have come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send you to Egypt.”‘ [Exodus 3:5, 7, 8, 10]
³⁵”This Moses whom they rejected, saying, “Who made you a ruler and a judge?’ [Exodus 2:14] is the one God sent to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the Angel who appeared to him in the bush. ³⁶He brought them out, after he had shown wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
 
³⁷ “This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel, [Deuteronomy 18:15] “The LORD your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your brethren. Him you shall hear.’ [NU-Text and M-Text omit Him you shall hear]

³⁸”This is he who was in the congregation in the wilderness with the Angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, the one who received the living oracles to give to us, ³⁹whom our fathers would not obey, but rejected. And in their hearts they turned back to Egypt, ⁴⁰saying to Aaron, “Make us gods to go before us; as for this Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.’ [Exodus 32:1, 23] ⁴¹And they made a calf in those days, offered sacrifices to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands. ⁴²Then God turned and gave them up to worship the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the Prophets:

        “Did you offer Me slaughtered animals and sacrifices during forty years in the wilderness,
        O house of Israel?
        ⁴³You also took up the tabernacle of Moloch,
        And the star of your god Remphan,
        Images which you made to worship;
        And I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’ [Amos 5:25-27]

⁴⁴ “Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as He appointed, instructing Moses to make it according to the pattern that he had seen, ⁴⁵which our fathers, having received it in turn, also brought with Joshua into the land possessed by the Gentiles, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers until the days of David, ⁴⁶who found favor before God and asked to find a dwelling for the God of Jacob. ⁴⁷But Solomon built Him a house.
⁴⁸”However, the Most High does not dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says:
        ⁴⁹”Heaven is My throne,
        And earth is My footstool.
        What house will you build for Me? says the LORD,
        Or what is the place of My rest?
        ⁵⁰Has My hand not made all these things?’ [Isaiah 66:1, 2]
 
⁵¹ “You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you. ⁵²Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who foretold the coming of the Just One, of whom you now have become the betrayers and murderers, ⁵³who have received the law by the direction of angels and have not kept it.”

⁵⁴ When they heard these things they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth. ⁵⁵But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God, ⁵⁶and said, “Look! I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”
⁵⁷Then they cried out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and ran at him with one accord; ⁵⁸and they cast him out of the city and stoned him. And the witnesses laid down their clothes at the feet of a young man named Saul. ⁵⁹And they stoned Stephen as he was calling on God and saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” ⁶⁰Then he knelt down and cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not charge them with this sin.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

Genesis 12:1-3

¹ Now the LORD had said to Abram:
        “Get out of your country,
        From your family
        And from your father’s house,
        To a land that I will show you.
        ²I will make you a great nation;
        I will bless you
        And make your name great;
        And you shall be a blessing.
        ³I will bless those who bless you,
        And I will curse him who curses you;
        And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

Genesis 15
¹⁴And also the nation whom they serve I will judge; afterward they shall come out with great possessions.

Exodus 3
¹²So He said, “I will certainly be with you. And this shall be a sign to you that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain.”

Exodus 1
⁵All those who were descendants [Literally who came from the loins of ] of Jacob were seventy [Dead Sea Scrolls and Septuagint read seventy-five (compare Acts 7:14)] persons (for Joseph was in Egypt already).

Exodus 2
¹⁴Then he said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?”
So Moses feared and said, “Surely this thing is known!”

Exodus 3:6-15
⁶Moreover He said, “I am the God of your father--the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look upon God.
⁷And the LORD said: “I have surely seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows. ⁸So I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites. ⁹Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come to Me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them. ¹⁰Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.”
¹¹But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?”
¹²So He said, “I will certainly be with you. And this shall be a sign to you that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain.”
¹³Then Moses said to God, “Indeed, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, “The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, “What is His name?’ what shall I say to them?”
¹⁴And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, “I AM has sent me to you.”‘ ¹⁵Moreover God said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel: “The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My name forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.’

Deuteronomy 18
¹⁵ “The LORD your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your midst, from your brethren. Him you shall hear,

Exodus 32
¹ Now when the people saw that Moses delayed coming down from the mountain, the people gathered together to Aaron, and said to him, “Come, make us gods that shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.”
²And Aaron said to them, “Break off the golden earrings which are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me.” ³So all the people broke off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron. ⁴And he received the gold from their hand, and he fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made a molded calf.
Then they said, “This is your god, O Israel, that brought you out of the land of Egypt!”
⁵So when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it. And Aaron made a proclamation and said, “Tomorrow is a feast to the LORD.” ⁶Then they rose early on the next day, offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
⁷And the LORD said to Moses, “Go, get down! For your people whom you brought out of the land of Egypt have corrupted themselves. ⁸They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them. They have made themselves a molded calf, and worshiped it and sacrificed to it, and said, “This is your god, O Israel, that brought you out of the land of Egypt!”‘ ⁹And the LORD said to Moses, “I have seen this people, and indeed it is a stiff-necked people! ¹⁰Now therefore, let Me alone, that My wrath may burn hot against them and I may consume them. And I will make of you a great nation.”
¹¹Then Moses pleaded with the LORD his God, and said: “LORD, why does Your wrath burn hot against Your people whom You have brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand? ¹²Why should the Egyptians speak, and say, “He brought them out to harm them, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth’? Turn from Your fierce wrath, and relent from this harm to Your people. ¹³Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, Your servants, to whom You swore by Your own self, and said to them, “I will multiply your descendants as the stars of heaven; and all this land that I have spoken of I give to your descendants, and they shall inherit it forever.”‘ [Genesis 13:15 and 22:17]  ¹⁴So the LORD relented from the harm which He said He would do to His people.
¹⁵And Moses turned and went down from the mountain, and the two tablets of the Testimony were in his hand. The tablets were written on both sides; on the one side and on the other they were written. ¹⁶Now the tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God engraved on the tablets.
¹⁷And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, “There is a noise of war in the camp.”
¹⁸But he said:
        “It is not the noise of the shout of victory,
        Nor the noise of the cry of defeat,
        But the sound of singing I hear.”

¹⁹So it was, as soon as he came near the camp, that he saw the calf and the dancing. So Moses’ anger became hot, and he cast the tablets out of his hands and broke them at the foot of the mountain. ²⁰Then he took the calf which they had made, burned it in the fire, and ground it to powder; and he scattered it on the water and made the children of Israel drink it. ²¹And Moses said to Aaron, “What did this people do to you that you have brought so great a sin upon them?”
²²So Aaron said, “Do not let the anger of my lord become hot. You know the people, that they are set on evil. ²³For they said to me, “Make us gods that shall go before us; as for this Moses, the man who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.’

Amos 5
²⁵”Did you offer Me sacrifices and offerings
        In the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?
        ²⁶You also carried Sikkuth [A pagan deity] your king [Septuagint and Vulgate read tabernacle of Moloch]
        And Chiun, [A pagan deity] your idols,
        The star of your gods,
        Which you made for yourselves.
        ²⁷Therefore I will send you into captivity beyond Damascus,”
        Says the LORD, whose name is the God of hosts.

Isaiah 66
¹ Thus says the LORD:
        “Heaven is My throne,
        And earth is My footstool.
        Where is the house that you will build Me?
        And where is the place of My rest?
        ²For all those things My hand has made,
        And all those things exist,”
        Says the LORD.
        “But on this one will I look:
        On him who is poor and of a contrite spirit,
        And who trembles at My word.

Romans 11:1-3

¹ I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not! For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. ²God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel, saying, ³”LORD, they have killed Your prophets and torn down Your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life”?

1 Thessalonians 2:14-16

¹⁴For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus. For you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, just as they did from the Judeans, ¹⁵who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they do not please God and are contrary to all men, ¹⁶forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved, so as always to fill up the measure of their sins; but wrath has come upon them to the uttermost.

1 Kings 19:10-14

¹⁰So he said, “I have been very zealous for the LORD God of hosts; for the children of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I alone am left; and they seek to take my life.”
¹¹ Then He said, “Go out, and stand on the mountain before the LORD.” And behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rocks in pieces before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake; ¹²and after the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice.
¹³So it was, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle and went out and stood in the entrance of the cave. Suddenly a voice came to him, and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
¹⁴And he said, “I have been very zealous for the LORD God of hosts; because the children of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I alone am left; and they seek to take my life.”

Hebrews 11:4-6
⁴ By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and through it he being dead still speaks.
⁵By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, “and was not found, because God had taken him”; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God. ⁶But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

Genesis 5:24
And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.

1 Corinthians 11
²³ For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; ²⁴and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat; [NU-Text omits Take, eat] this is My body which is broken [NU-Text omits broken] for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” ²⁵In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”
²⁶For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes.

Matthew 26:26-29

²⁶ And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed [M-Text reads gave thanks for] and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.”
²⁷Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. ²⁸For this is My blood of the new [NU-Text omits new] covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. ²⁹But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father’s kingdom.”

Mark 14:22-25
²² And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them and said, “Take, eat; [NU-Text omits eat]. this is My body.”
²³Then He took the cup, and when He had given thanks He gave it to them, and they all drank from it. ²⁴And He said to them, “This is My blood of the new [NU-Text omits new] covenant, which is shed for many. ²⁵Assuredly, I say to you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.”

Luke 22:14-20
¹⁴ When the hour had come, He sat down, and the twelve [NU-Text omits twelve] apostles with Him. ¹⁵Then He said to them, “With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer; ¹⁶for I say to you, I will no longer eat of it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”
¹⁷Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves; ¹⁸for I say to you, [NU-Text adds from now on] I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”
¹⁹And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”
²⁰Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you.

1 Corinthians 7:10-11

¹⁰ Now to the married I command, yet not I but the Lord: A wife is not to depart from her husband. ¹¹But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to divorce his wife.

Commentary by J.P. Holding: http://www.tektonics.org/af/divorce2.html

Matthew 5:32
But I say to you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality [Or fornication] causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery.

Matthew 19:9
And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, [Or fornication] and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery.”

Mark 10:10-12

¹⁰In the house His disciples also asked Him again about the same matter. ¹¹So He said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. ¹²And if a woman divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery.”

Luke 16:18
“Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced from her husband commits adultery.

Acts 13:23-25
²³From this man’s seed, according to the promise, God raised up for Israel a Savior—Jesus—[M-Text reads for Israel salvation. ]  ²⁴after John had first preached, before His coming, the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. ²⁵And as John was finishing his course, he said, “Who do you think I am? I am not He. But behold, there comes One after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to loose.’

And the dead in Christ will rise first. ¹⁷Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. ¹⁸Therefore comfort one another with these words.
