Genesis 11:4 — Verse Genesis 11:4. Let us build us a city and a tower — On this subject there have been various conjectures. Mr. Hutchinson supposed that the design of the builders was to erect a temple to the host of heaven-the sun, moon, planets, c. and, to support this interpretation,

Genesis 11:4 — Verso Génesis 11:4. Construyamos una ciudad y una torre…  Sobre este tema ha habido varias conjeturas. El Sr. Hutchinson supuso que el diseño de los constructores era erigir un templo a las huestes del cielo: el sol, la luna, los planetas, etc. y, para apoyar esta interpretación,

Genesis 42:1 — CHAPTER XLII Jacob sends his ten sons to Egypt to buy corn, 1-3; but refuses to permit Benjamin to go, 4. They arrive in Egypt, and bow themselves before Joseph, 5, 6.

Exodus 21:1 — wife to servitude with him, both should go out free on the seventh year, 3. If his master had given him a wife, and she bore him children, he might go out free an the seventh year, but his wife and children must remain, as the property of the master, 4. If, through love to his master, wife, and children, he did not choose to avail himself of the privilege granted by the law, of going out free on the seventh year, his ear was to be bored to the door post with an awl, as an emblem of his being attached

Exodus 3:2 — Verso Éxodo 3:2.

1 Kings 6:38 — templo; es de suponer que la descripción que nos da del templo de Jerusalén es la misma que la del templo de Salomón. "El terreno sobre el que se construyó el templo era un cuadrado de seiscientos codos, o sea, veinticinco mil pies reales;  Ezequiel 45:1. Este espacio estaba rodeado por un muro de seis codos de altura y de la misma anchura. Más allá de este muro estaba el atrio de los gentiles, de cincuenta codos de ancho. Después de éste se veía un gran muro que abarcaba todo el atrio de los hijos

Se queja amargamente y lo agrava. 1. Que Dios se había olvidado de él: "¿Me olvidarás?" 2. Que escondió su rostro de él: "¿Esconderás tu rostro?" 3.

Psalms 32:11 — it we have instruction, especially on these three points, which divide the Psalm:-I. The happy state of a justified person, Psalms 32:1-2.II. The unhappy condition of that man who is not assured that he is justified and reconciled to God, Psalms 32:3-4. And the way is prescribed how to gain this assurance, Psalms 32:5.III. A lesson given for obedience after a man is brought into that state, Psalms 32:8-9.I. The prophet first instructs us in what justification consists: -I. It is a free remission,

Psalms 46:11 — Versículo Salmo 46:11 . El Señor de los ejércitos está con nosotros. Habiendo oído estas declaraciones de Dios, el pueblo clama con júbilo y alegría: El Señor de los ejércitos, el Dios de los ejércitos, está con nosotros; no temeremos lo que el hombre pueda hacernos. El

Psalms 5:12 — por la atención; muestra que quiso ser serio y ferviente en ella; y elige una variedad de palabras para expresar lo mismo, que se elevan por grados en la descripción:  1° Se eleva de la meditación;  2° A las palabras;  3° De las palabras a la voz;  4° De la voz al grito.  Entonces desea a Dios: A. Que considere. B. Que le escuche. C. Que escuche.  1- Considera, quien sopesa la justicia de la causa.  2- Presta oído, quien quiere entender lo que el suplicante quiere decir.  3- Atiende y escucha, que

Numbers 5:4 — Verse Numbers 5:4. And the children of Israel - put them out — This is the earliest account we have of such separations; and probably this ordinance gave the first idea of a hospital, where all those who are afflicted with contagious disorders are put into particular

Acts 26:32 — may be concluded from Acts 28:30, that he dwelt two whole years in his own hired place; and to the same cause it seems to have been owing that Julius, who had the care of Paul as a prisoner in the ship, treated him courteously; see Acts 27:3; Acts 27:43. And the same may be gathered from Acts 28:14; Acts 28:16. So that this defence of the apostle before Agrippa, Bernice, Festus, c., was ultimately serviceable to his important cause.1. THE conversion of Saul was a wonderful work of the Spirit of God

Por la improbabilidad de que un ciudadano romano, como lo era Pablo, fuera condenado a tal castigo, cuando en otros casos, alegando su privilegio, se le eximía de ser azotado. 5. Del testimonio positivo de Tertuliano y Crisóstomo, que niegan la interpretación
