7193 | RUT 4:1 | Then Boaz went up to the gate and sat down. Just then the near kinsman of whom Boaz had spoken came along. Boaz said, “Hello, So-and-so (calling him by name), come here and sit down.” So he stopped and sat down. |
12734 | EST 2:6 | (Kish had been carried away from Jerusalem with the exiles who were deported with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon took captive.) |
12743 | EST 2:15 | When it was the turn of Esther (the girl adopted by Mordecai, daughter of his uncle Abihail) to go in to the king, she only took with her those things that Hegai, the king’s eunuch in charge of the women, had advised her to take. Esther was liked by all who saw her. |
12758 | EST 3:7 | In the first month (the month of Nisan) in the twelfth year of the reign of King Ahasuerus, Haman had ‘pur’ (which means ‘lot’) cast before him to determine the best day and best month for his actions. The lot fell on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month – the month of Adar. |
12830 | EST 8:9 | On the twenty-third day of the third month (that is the month of Sivan), the king’s secretaries were summoned and as Mordecai instructed an edict was issued to the Jews, to the satraps and provincial governors and the rulers of each of the one hundred twenty-seven provinces from India to Ethiopia in their own script and their own language, and to the Jews in their own script and language. |
12833 | EST 8:12 | throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus on that thirteenth day of the twelfth month (which is called Adar). |
12839 | EST 9:1 | Now in the twelfth month (that is the month of Adar), on the thirteenth day, when the king’s command and his decree was about to put into execution, on the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to gain the mastery over them, then the tables were turned so that the Jews had the mastery over those who hated them. |
12856 | EST 9:18 | (But the Jews in Susa gathered on both the thirteenth and fourteenth day – and rested on the fifteenth day of the same month and made it a day of feasting and rejoicing.) |
14753 | PSA 52:9 | “Look” (they will say) “at the hero who did not make God his stronghold, but trusted in his great wealth and in the strength of his riches.” |
15955 | PSA 118:18 | Though the Lord has chastened me sore, he has not given me over to death. (The Procession arrives at the Temple) |
15956 | PSA 118:19 | “Open to me the gates of victory. I would enter therein and give thanks to the Lord.” (The Welcome) |
23001 | ZEC 4:10 | For who has despised the day of small things? They will rejoice, and will see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. (The seven lamps are the eyes of the Lord that search all around the world.) |
23141 | ZEC 14:4 | On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, (which is opposite Jerusalem, on the east). The Mount of Olives will be split into halves, from east to west, by an exceedingly great valley; and half of the mountain will slide northwards and half southwards. |
24041 | MAT 24:15 | As soon, then, as you see ‘the Foul Desecration,’ mentioned by the prophet Daniel, standing in the Holy place,” (the reader must consider what this means) |
24231 | MAT 27:33 | On reaching a place named Golgotha (a place named from its likeness to a skull), |
24373 | MRK 3:16 | So he appointed the Twelve – Peter (which was the name that Jesus gave to Simon), |
24374 | MRK 3:17 | James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John (to whom he gave the name of Boanerges, which means the Thunderers), |
24459 | MRK 5:26 | and undergone much at the hands of many doctors, (spending all she had without obtaining any relief, but, on the contrary, growing worse), |
24536 | MRK 7:4 | When they come from market, they will not eat without first sprinkling themselves; and there are many other customs which they have inherited and hold to, such as the ceremonial washing of cups, and jugs, and copper pans). |
24543 | MRK 7:11 | you say ‘If a person says to their father or mother “Whatever of mine might have been of service to you is Corban”’ (which means ‘Set apart for God’) – |
24800 | MRK 13:14 | “As soon, however, as you see ‘the Foul Desecration’ standing where it ought not” (the reader must consider what this means) “then those of you who are in Judea must take refuge in the mountains; |
25044 | LUK 2:2 | (This was the first census taken while Quirinius was Governor of Syria). |
25193 | LUK 5:17 | On one of those days, when Jesus was teaching, some Pharisees and Doctors of the Law were sitting near by. (They had come from all the villages in Galilee and Judea, and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was on Jesus, so that he could work cures.) |
25229 | LUK 6:14 | They were Simon (whom Jesus also named Peter), and his brother Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, |
25294 | LUK 7:30 | But the Pharisees and the students of the Law, having rejected John’s baptism, frustrated God’s purpose in regard to them.) |
25316 | LUK 8:2 | as well as some women who had been cured of wicked spirits and of infirmities. They were Mary, known as Mary of Magdala (from whom seven demons had been expelled), |
25317 | LUK 8:3 | and Joanna (the wife of Herod’s steward, Chuza), and Susannah, and many others – all of whom provided for Jesus and his apostles out of their own resources. |
25344 | LUK 8:30 | “What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he answered (for many demons had taken possession of him); |
25384 | LUK 9:14 | (For the men among them were about five thousand.) “Get them seated in companies,” was his reply, “about fifty in each.” |
26023 | LUK 23:19 | (Barabbas was a man who had been put in prison for a riot that had broken out in the city and for murder.) |
26055 | LUK 23:51 | (This man had not assented to the decision and action of the Council.) He belonged to Arimathea, a town in Judea, and lived in expectation of the kingdom of God. |
26127 | JHN 1:14 | And the Word became human, and lived among us, (We saw his glory – the glory of the Only Son sent from the Father), full of love and truth. |
26128 | JHN 1:15 | (John bears witness to him; he cried aloud – for it was he who spoke – “He who is coming after me is now before me, for he was ever first”); |
26151 | JHN 1:38 | But Jesus turned around, and saw them following. “What are you looking for?” he asked. “Rabbi,” they answered (or, as we should say, ‘Teacher’), “where are you staying?” |
26154 | JHN 1:41 | He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (a word which means ‘Christ,’ or ‘Consecrated’.) |
26155 | JHN 1:42 | Then he brought him to Jesus. Looking straight at him, Jesus said, “You are Simon, the son of John; you will be called Cephas” (which means ‘Peter,’ or ‘Rock’). |
26213 | JHN 3:24 | (For John had not yet been imprisoned). |
26227 | JHN 4:2 | (Though it was not Jesus himself, but his disciples, who baptized), |
26234 | JHN 4:9 | “How is it,” replied the Samaritan woman, “that you who are a Jew ask for water from a Samaritan woman like me?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans). |
26398 | JHN 7:1 | After this, Jesus went about in Galilee, for he would not do so in Judea, because the religious authorities (in Jerusalem) were eager to put him to death. |
26436 | JHN 7:39 | (By this he meant the Spirit, which those who had believed in him were to receive; for the Spirit had not yet come, because Jesus had not yet been exalted.) |
26516 | JHN 9:7 | “Go,” he said, “and wash your eyes in the Bath of Siloam” (a word which means ‘messenger’). So the man went and washed his eyes, and returned able to see. |
26759 | JHN 14:22 | “What has happened, Master,” said Judas (not Judas Iscariot), “that you are going to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?” |
26859 | JHN 18:5 | “Jesus of Nazareth,” was their answer. “I am he,” said Jesus. (Judas, the betrayer, was also standing with them.) |
26872 | JHN 18:18 | The servants and guards were standing around a charcoal fire (which they had made because it was cold), and were warming themselves. Peter, too, was with them, standing and warming himself. |
26925 | JHN 19:31 | It was the Preparation day, and so, to prevent the bodies from remaining on the crosses during the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a great day), the Jews asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies removed. |
26952 | JHN 20:16 | “Mary!” said Jesus. She turned around, and exclaimed in Hebrew, “Rabboni!” (or, as we should say, ‘teacher’). |
26974 | JHN 21:7 | The disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Master!” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Master, he fastened his coat around him (for he had taken it off), and threw himself into the sea. |
26975 | JHN 21:8 | But the rest of the disciples came in the boat (for they were only about a hundred yards from shore), dragging the net full of fish. |
27011 | ACT 1:19 | This became known to everyone living in Jerusalem, so that the field came to be called, in their language, ‘Akeldama,’ which means the ‘Field of Blood.’) |
27127 | ACT 4:36 | A Levite of Cyprian birth, named Joseph, (who had received from the apostles the additional name of ‘Barnabas’ – which means ‘The Consoler,’) |
27145 | ACT 5:17 | At this the high priest was roused to action, and he and all his supporters (who formed the party of the Sadducees), moved by jealousy, |
27179 | ACT 6:9 | But some members of the Synagogue of the Freed Slaves (as it was called), Cyrenians, Alexandrians, and Visitors from Cilicia and Roman Asia, were roused to action and began disputing with Stephen; |
27230 | ACT 7:45 | This tent, which was handed down to them, was brought into this country by our ancestors who accompanied Joshua (at the conquest of the nations that God drove out before their advance), and remained here until the time of David. |
27261 | ACT 8:16 | (As yet the Spirit had not descended on any of them; they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus). |
27271 | ACT 8:26 | Meanwhile an angel of the Lord had said to Philip, “Set out on a journey southwards, along the road that runs down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” (It is now deserted). |
27409 | ACT 12:3 | and, when he saw that the Jews were pleased with this, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. (This was during the Festival of the unleavened bread.) |
27439 | ACT 13:8 | But Elymas, the astrologer (for that is the meaning of the word), opposed them, eager to divert the Governor’s attention from the faith. |
27440 | ACT 13:9 | However, Saul (who is the same as Paul), full of the Holy Spirit, fixed his eyes on him and said, |
27533 | ACT 15:22 | It was then decided by the apostles and the elders, with the assent of the whole church, to choose some of their number, and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. Those chosen were Judas (called Barsabas) and Silas, who were leaders among the community. |
27610 | ACT 17:18 | Among others, some Epicurean and Stoic Philosophers joined issue with him. Some asked “What is this prater wanting to make out?”, while others said “He seems to be a preacher of foreign Deities.” (This was because he was telling the good news about Jesus and the resurrection). |
27613 | ACT 17:21 | (All Athenians and the foreigners staying in the city found no time for anything else but telling, or listening to, the last new thing.) |
27658 | ACT 19:4 | “John’s baptism was a baptism on repentance,” rejoined Paul, “and John told the people (speaking of the ‘one coming’ after him) that they should believe in him – that is in Jesus.” |
27761 | ACT 21:29 | (For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian in Paul’s company in the city, and were under the belief that Paul had taken him into the Temple.) |
27810 | ACT 23:8 | (For Sadducees say there is no such thing as a resurrection, and that there is neither angel nor spirit, while Pharisees believe in both.) |
28064 | ROM 3:5 | But what if our wrongdoing makes God’s righteousness all the clearer? Will God be wrong in inflicting punishment? (I can but speak as a person.) Heaven forbid! |
28107 | ROM 4:17 | as scripture says – ‘I have made you the father of many nations.’) And this they do in the sight of that God in whom Abraham had faith, and who gives life to the dead, and speaks of what does not yet exist as if it did. |
28149 | ROM 6:13 | Do not offer any part of your bodies to sin, in the cause of unrighteousness, but once for all offer yourselves to God (as those who, though once dead, now have life), and devote every part of your bodies to the cause of righteousness. |
28160 | ROM 7:1 | Surely, friends, you know (for I am speaking to people who know what Law means) that Law has power over a person only as long as they lives. |
28262 | ROM 10:6 | But the righteousness which results from faith finds expression in these words: ‘Do not say to yourself “Who will go up into heaven?”’ (which means to bring Christ down) |
28263 | ROM 10:7 | ‘or “Who will go down into the depths below?”’ (which means to bring Christ up from the dead). |
28264 | ROM 10:8 | No, but what does it say? ‘The message is near you, on your lips and in your heart’ (which means ‘The message of faith’ which we proclaim). |
28551 | 1CO 6:16 | Or don’t you know that a man who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body (for ‘the two,’ it is said, ‘will become one’); |
28566 | 1CO 7:11 | (If she has done so, she should remain as she is, or else be reconciled to her husband) and also that a man is not to divorce his wife. |
28601 | 1CO 8:6 | Yet for us there is only one God, the Father, from whom all things come (and for him we live), and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things come (and through him we live). |
28779 | 1CO 14:33 | for God is not a God of disorder, but of peace.) This custom prevails in all the churches of Christ’s people. |
28789 | 1CO 15:3 | For at the very beginning of my teaching I gave you the account which I had myself received – that Christ died for our sins (as the scriptures had foretold), |
28790 | 1CO 15:4 | that he was buried, that on the third day he was raised (as the scriptures had foretold), |
28813 | 1CO 15:27 | for God has placed all things under Christ’s feet. (But, when it is said that all things have been placed under Christ, it is plain that God is excepted who placed everything under him.) |
28902 | 2CO 2:10 | Anyone you forgive, I forgive them, too. Indeed, for my part, whatever I have forgiven (if I have had to forgive anything), I have forgiven for your sakes, in the presence of Christ, |
28932 | 2CO 4:5 | (For it is not ourselves that we proclaim, but Christ Jesus, as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.) |
29034 | 2CO 9:10 | And he who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for eating, will supply you with seed, and cause it to increase, and will multiply the fruits of your righteousness). |
29092 | 2CO 12:2 | I know a man in union with Christ, who, fourteen years ago – whether in the body or out of the body I do not know; God knows – was caught up (this man of whom I am speaking) to the third heaven. |
29144 | GAL 1:20 | (As to what I am now writing to you, I call God to witness that I am speaking the truth). |
29301 | EPH 2:5 | even though we were dead because of our offenses, gave life to us in giving life to the Christ. (By God’s loving kindness you have been saved.) |
29376 | EPH 5:5 | For of this you may be sure – that no one who is unchaste or impure or greedy of gain (for to be greedy of gain is idolatry) has any place awaiting him in the kingdom of the Christ and God. |
29552 | COL 1:20 | and through him to reconcile all things to himself (making peace by the shedding of Christ’s blood offered on the cross) – whether on earth or in heaven. |
29619 | COL 4:10 | My fellow prisoner, Aristarchus, sends you his greeting, and Barnabas’s cousin, Mark, sends his. (You have received directions about him. If he comes to you, make him welcome.) |
29726 | 2TH 1:10 | when he comes to be honored in his people, and to be revered in all who have learned to believe in him (for you also believed our testimony) – as he will be on that day. |
29790 | 1TI 2:7 | and it was for this that I was myself appointed a herald and an apostle (I am telling the simple truth and no lie) – a teacher of the Gentiles in the faith and truth. |
30150 | HEB 7:19 | (for the Law never brought anything to perfection); and, on the other hand, we have the introduction of a better hope, which enables us to draw near to God. |
30164 | HEB 8:5 | (These priests, it is true, are engaged in a service which is only a copy and shadow of the heavenly realities, as is shown by the directions given to Moses when he was about to construct the tent. ‘Look to it,’ are the words, ‘that you make every part in accordance with the pattern shown you on the mountain.’) |
30185 | HEB 9:13 | For, if the blood of goats and bulls, and the sprinkling of the ashes of a heifer, purify those who have been defiled (as far as ceremonial purification goes), |
30199 | HEB 9:27 | And, as it is ordained for people to die but once (death being followed by judgment), |
30207 | HEB 10:7 | So I said, “See, I have come” (as is written of me in the pages of the book), “To do your will, God.”’ |
30208 | HEB 10:8 | First come the words – ‘You do not desire, nor do you take pleasure in, sacrifices, offerings, burnt offerings, and sacrifices for sin’ (offerings regularly made under the Law), |
30220 | HEB 10:20 | by the way which he inaugurated for us – a new and living way, a way through the sanctuary curtain (that is, his human nature); |
30250 | HEB 11:11 | Again, it was faith that enabled Sarah to conceive (though she was past the age for childbearing), because she felt sure that he who had given her the promise would not fail her. |
30447 | 1PE 1:6 | At the thought of this you are full of exultation, though (if it has been necessary) you have suffered for the moment somewhat from various trials; |
30544 | 1PE 5:12 | I have been writing to you briefly by the hand of Silas, our true-hearted friend (for so I regard him), to encourage you, and to bear my testimony that in what I have written is to be found the true love of God. On that take your stand. |
