So I Was Reading The Bible Today...

[Norseman82]

Isaiah 47:1:

[b]"Come down, sit in the dust, O virgin daughter, Babylon"[/b]











Hey, I can leaf through and put my finger on random bible verses without looking at them too!

[b]Jos 7:6[/b] And Joshua rent his clothes, and fell to the earth upon his face before the ark of the LORD until the eventide, [b]he and the elders of Israel, and put dUSt upon their heads[/b].

That would have been interesting to watch.

Proof that piggy-back rides have early roots in ancient Hebrew customs.

[b]2Sa 16:13[/b] And as David and his men went by the way, Shimei went along on the hill's side over against him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones at him,[b] and threw dUSt[/b].

Ouch!

He's a big guy. He can handle it.

[Laudate_Dominum]

true Micah.. It seems like a common thing back then:

[b]Lam 2:10[/b] The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, [and] keep silence: [b]they have cast up dUSt upon their heads[/b].


hmm.. what about this one?

[b]Psa 30:9 [/b] What profit [is there] in my blood, when I go down to the pit? [b]Shall dUSt praise thee?[/b]

I wonder if dUSt's wife knows about this one:

[b]Isa 34:7[/b] And the unicorns shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls; and their land shall be soaked with blood, [b]and their dUSt made fat with fatness[/b].

And I truly hope I'm misinterpretting this verse, has the Church said anything about it?:

[b]Isa 65:25 [/b] The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: [b]and dUSt shall be the serpent's meat[/b]

And my fave:

[b]Act 22:23 And as they cried out, and cast off their clothes, and threw dUSt into the air. [/b]

I just wonder if we're supposed to be imitating the apostles or something.. For all I know they're already doing stuff like that at the concerts dUSt goes to.

I guess that proves that you yourself are unbiblical!!



However.....


In the NAB 1970 translation, the word "budge" is in Matthew 23:4:

"Their words are bold but their deeds are few. They bind up heavy loads, hard to carry, to lay on other men's shoulders, while they themselves will not lift a finer to [b]budge[/b] them'.

So, if you are in the Catholic Bible but not the Protestant one, maybe that is telling you something....

(You can always come home, Budge).

[Resurrexi]

The NAB is not the Catholic Bible, it is an heretical bible posing to be Catholic. The real Catholic Bible is the Douay-Rheims if you like poetical language, and the Reviesed Standard Version Catholic Version if you like modern language.
