Thematic Bible: Blessedness of keeping


Thematic Bible



and whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do the things that are pleasing in His sight.


Aleph.
How blessed are those whose way is blameless,
Who walk in the law of the Lord.

Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.


“Also the foreigners who join themselves to the Lord,
To minister to Him, and to love the name of the Lord,
To be His servants, every one who keeps from profaning the sabbath
And holds fast My covenant;

“How blessed is the man who does this,
And the son of man who takes hold of it;
Who keeps from profaning the sabbath,
And keeps his hand from doing any evil.”
