Thematic Bible





The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit and he ceased to be wise and do good.

The tongue is like fire, the place of iniquity among our members. It defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of our life. It is set ablaze like the ever-burning fires in the Valley of Hinnom (Greek: Gehenna: symbolic of total destruction).


His speech was smoother than butter, but his heart was war! His words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.



You offspring of vipers. How can you who are evil speak good things? Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
