Leviticus 11:5

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.

The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats, and so are the stony rocks for the conies.

The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their couches among the rocks.

Thus their soul perisheth in foolishness, and their life shall be condemned among the fornicators.

And whosoever heareth of me these sayings, and doeth them not the same, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

and knowest his will, and hast experience of good and bad, in that thou art informed by the law:

For many walk - of whom I have told you often, and now tell you weeping - that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ,

having a similitude of godly living, but have denied the power thereof. Such abhor.

They confess that they know God: but with the deeds they deny him and are abominable, and disobedient, and unto all good works discommendable.

The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their couches among the rocks.
