It would be easier for the heavens and the earth to disappear than for one stroke of a letter in the Law to be lost.

For I tell you, until the heavens and the earth disappear, not even the smallest letter, nor one stroke of a letter, shall disappear from the Law until all is done.

"Sir," he said, "my manservant is lying ill at my house with a stroke of paralysis, and is suffering terribly."

And in my vision I saw a grey horse. His rider's name was Death, and the Lord of the Place of Death rode behind him; and power was given them over the fourth part of the earth, so that they might 'destroy with sword and famine and death, and by means of the wild beasts of the earth.'

Did, then, a thing, which in itself was good, involve Death in my case? Heaven forbid! It was sin that involved Death; so that, by its use of what I regarded as good to bring about my Death, its true nature might appear; and in this way the Commandment showed how intensely sinful sin is.

Then Death and the Lord of the Place of Death were hurled into the lake of fire. This is the Second Death--the lake of fire;

'Death has been swallowed up in victory! Where, O Death, is thy victory? Where, O Death, is thy sting?'

Brother will betray brother to death, and the father his child; and children will turn against their parents, and cause them to be put to death;

He appeared among us as a man, and still further humbled himself by submitting even to death--to death on a cross!

In those days men 'will seek Death and will not find it'; They will long to die, but Death flees from them.

Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and through sin came death; so, also, death spread to all mankind, because all men had sinned.

For the death that he died was a death to sin, once and for all. But the Life that he now lives, he lives for God.

The sea gave up its dead, and Death and the Lord of the Place of Death gave up their dead; and they were judged, one by one, each according to his actions.

But God released him from the pangs of death and raised him to life, it being impossible for death to retain its hold upon him.

To the latter we are an odor which arises from death and tells of Death; to the former an odor which arises from life and tells of Life. But who is equal to such a task?

What our eyes do see is Jesus, who was made for a while lower than angels, now, because of his sufferings and death, crowned with glory and honour; so that his tasting the bitterness of death should, in God's loving-kindness, be on behalf of all mankind.

Therefore, since human nature is the common heritage of 'the Children,' Jesus also shared it, in order that by death he might render powerless him whose power lies in death--that is, the Devil--

It was now two days before the Festival of the Passover and the Unleavened bread. The Chief Priests and the Teachers of the Law were looking for an opportunity to arrest Jesus by stealth, and to put him to death;

"I am sad at heart," he said, "sad even to death; wait here, and watch."

"You heard his blasphemy? What is your verdict?" They all condemned him, declaring that he deserved death.

"Miserable wretches!" they exclaimed, "he will put them to a miserable death, and he will let out the vineyard to other tenants, who will pay him his share of the produce at the proper times."
