Genesis 10:25 — And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one [was] Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother’s name [was] Joktan. Peleg, for in his days was the earth divided. — Eber, of whom came the Hebrews or Israelites, Exodus 1:15 that he might have before his eyes a perpetual monument of God’s just displeasure against the ambitious Babel builders, calls his son Peleg, or Division, because in his days was the earth divided. It is good to write the remembrance of God’s

Acts 22:3 — éåùá or the sitter the scholar was called îäáì÷ or one that lies along in the dust, a token of the scholar’s humility, subjecting himself even to the feet of his teacher, as here, and Luke 10:39 ; 2 Kings 2:5 .

1 Thessalonians 4:11 — noted or noticed, ut qui vivens moriensque fefellit, affecting rather quietness from the world than any great acquaintance with it.
