1 Kings 19:21 — académicos por sus togas y gorras cuadradas . El palio era tan común entre los griegos como la toga entre los romanos . Cada uno de estos era tan peculiar a esas naciones, que Palliatus se usa para significar un griego , como Togatus significa un romano . 5. ¿Fue a partir de este acto de Elías, transmitiendo el oficio profético y su autoridad a Eliseo arrojándole su manto, que los papas de Roma tomaron prestada la ceremonia de cotejar a un arzobispo con las espiritualidades y temporalidades de su sede

1 Chronicles 4:43 — was at once both enlightened and pious. He had piety towards God, and therefore he trusted in him: he knew that he was the fountain of all good, and therefore he sought all necessaries both for body and soul from him. He prayed to the God of Israel.5. Both the matter and manner of his prayer were excellent.

1 Chronicles 4:43 — oración frecuente y ferviente. 4. Su oración era a la vez ilustrada y piadosa. Tenía piedad hacia Dios, y por eso confiaba en él; sabía que era la fuente de todo bien, y por eso le pedía todo lo necesario para el cuerpo y el alma. Oraba al Dios de Israel. 5.

Leviticus 26:15 — Verse Leviticus 26:15. If ye shall despise my statutes - abhor my judgments — As these words, and others of a similar import, which point out different properties of the revelation of God, are frequently occurring, I Judge it best to take a general view of them, once

Isaiah 5:1 — an enumeration of judgments as the necessary consequence. Captivity and famine appear with all their horrors, 13. Hades, or the grave, like a ravenous monster, opens wide its jaws, and swallows down its myriads, 14. Distress lays hold on all ranks, 15; and God is glorified in the execution of his judgments, 16; till the whole place is left desolate, a place for the flocks to range in, 17. The prophet then pauses; and again resumes his subject, reproving them for several other sins, and threatening

Joshua overview — possession of the promised land. On the change and meaning of the name, see the note on Numbers 13:16. By the Septuagint he is called Ιησους Ναυη, Jesus Naue, or Jesus son of Nave: and in the New Testament he is expressly called Ιησους, Jesus; see Acts 7:45; Hebrews 4:8. Joshua was denominated the servant of Moses, as he seems to have acted sometimes as his secretary, sometimes as his aid-du-camp, and sometimes as the general of the army. He was early appointed to be the successor of Moses, see Exodus

Hebrews 1:14 — made this subject his particular study. BRIEF REMARKS ON HEBREWS, chap. Hebrews 1:0, ver. Hebrews 1:8. 'ο θρονος σου, ο θεος, εις τουςε αιωνας. It hath ever been the opinion of the most sound divines, that these words, which are extracted from the 45th Psalm, are addressed by God the Father unto God the Son. Our translators have accordingly rendered the passage thus: "Thy throne, O God, is for ever." Those who deny the Divinity of Christ, being eager to get rid of such a testimony against themselves,

Hebrews 1:14 — de este tema su estudio particular. BREVE OBSERVACIONES SOBRE HEBREOS, cap. Hebreos 1 , ver. Hebreos 1:8 _ 'ο θρονος σου, ο θεος, εις τουςε αιωνας. Siempre ha sido la opinión de los más sanos teólogos, que estas palabras, que se extraen del Salmo 45, son dirigidas por Dios el Padre a Dios el Hijo. Nuestros traductores han traducido el pasaje así: "Tu trono, oh Dios, es eterno". Los que niegan la Divinidad de Cristo, estando ansiosos de deshacerse de tal testimonio contra ellos mismos, sostienen

El texto disputado, 1 Juan 5:7 , lo dejo por el momento fuera de la cuestión. En la introducción a esta epístola he presentado suficientes pruebas para hacer muy probable que San Pablo fuera el autor de esta epístola. En este sentimiento están de acuerdo los más eminentes eruditos

2 Samuel 7:25 — Verse 25. And do as thou hast said. — David well knew that all the promises made to himself and family were conditional; and therefore he prays that they may be fulfilled. His posterity did not walk with God, and therefore they were driven from the throne.
