Exodus 4:14 — Verso Éxodo 4:14. Y la ira del Señor se encendió contra Moisés...  Seguramente este no habría sido el caso si hubiera tenido modestia , y desde un profundo sentido de su propia incapacidad, deseaba que el Mesías fuera preferido antes que él. Pero toda la conexión

2 Chronicles 4:3 — Verse 2 Chronicles 4:3. Under it was the similitude of oxen — In 1 Kings 7:24, instead of oxen, בקרים bekarim, we have knops, פקעים pekaim; and this last is supposed by able critics to be the reading which ought to be received here. What we call knops may signify

Psalms 68:18 — elevado. Llevado cautivo. Los reyes y generales conquistados solían ir atados detrás del carro del conquistador, unidos a él, y caminaban tras él, para honrar el triunfo del vencedor. Recibiste regalos para los hombres. "Y diste regalos a los hombres";  Efesios 4:8 . En tales ocasiones el vencedor arrojaba dinero entre la multitud.

Ezekiel 13:17 — necessarily imply true ones, whom they endeavoured to imitate.That there were true prophetesses among the Jews is evident enough from such being mentioned in the sacred writings. Miriam, the sister of Moses Exodus 15:20; Numbers 12:2; Deborah, Judges 4:4; Huldah, 2 Kings 22:14; Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, Luke 2:36; the four daughters of Philip the deacon, Acts 21:9.Calmet observes that there was scarcely a heresy in the primitive Church that was not supported and fomented by seducing women.

Ezekiel 5:1 — CHAPTER V In this chapter the prophet shows, under the type of hair, the judgments which God was about to execute on the inhabitants of Jerusalem by famine, sword, and dispersion, 14.

Jonah 4:4 — Versículo Jonás 4:4 . ¿Haces bien en enojarte?  ההיטב הרה לך haheitib harah lac , "¿Te hace bien la ira?" No, la ira no es buena para ningún hombre; pero un predicador, ministro, obispo o profeta enojado es un hombre abominable. El que, al denunciar la palabra de Dios

Luke 1:17 — 1:17. He shall go before him — Jesus Christ, in the spirit and power of Elijah; he shall resemble Elijah in his retired and austere manner of life, and in his zeal for the truth, reproving even princes for their crimes; compare 1 Kings 21:17-24, with Matthew 14:4.

Fue por estos relatos que el profeta Malaquías, Malaquías 4:6, comparó a Juan con este profeta. Consulte también Isaías 40:3; y Malaquías 4:5. Para convertir los corazones de los padres...  La ignorancia grave había tenido lugar en los corazones

Luke 17:11 — journey; and then through Samaria, of which mention is made, Luke 9:51-52. All who went from Galilee to Jerusalem must have necessarily passed through Samaria, unless they had gone to the westward, a very great way about. Therefore John tells us, John 4:4, that when Jesus left Judea to go into Galilee, it was necessary for him to pass through Samaria; for this plain reason, because it was the only proper road. "It is likely that our Lord set out from Capernaum, traversed the remaining villages of Galilee

Luke 8:18 — apariencia; por lo tanto, por un lado no hay ganancia, y por el otro no hay pérdida. Sobre esta base, el texto no dice nada. 2.

John 19:12 — Verse John 19:12.

Joshua 1:3 — Canaanitish nations, and as far as the Euphrates on the east; for this was certainly the utmost of the grant now made to them; and all that was included in what is termed the promised land, the boundaries of which have already been defined. See Deuteronomy 34:1-4, and see Joshua 1:4 below.

Yo soy el Alfa y la Omega.  Apocalipsis 1:8 . La fuente del agua de vida.  Ver  Juan 4:10 ; Juan 4:14 ; Juan 7:37. Los rabinos consideran la fuente del mundo venidero como una de las bendiciones particulares de un estado futuro. En Sanhedrim, Aboth R. Nathan. 31, se dice: "Él les mostrará la excelencia de la fuente del mundo futuro
