For every nature, both of beasts and of fowls, both of creeping things and things of the sea, is subdued, and hath been subdued, by the human nature,

from the same mouth come both blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be this way.

A spring cannot pour both fresh and brackish water from the same opening, can it?

Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries: or a vine bear figs? So can no fountain give both salt water and fresh also.

There is only one Lawgiver and Judge--he who has the power both to save and to destroy. But who are you that pass judgment on your neighbor?

For you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will both live, and do this or that."
