Genesis 44:33

Now therefore, please let your servant stay instead of the boy, a bondservant to my lord; and let the boy go up with his brothers.

Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin -- and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written."

For one will hardly die for a righteous man. Yet perhaps for a righteous person someone would even dare to die.

For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brothers' sake, my relatives according to the flesh,

By so much, Jesus has become the collateral of a better covenant.

By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
