Thematic Bible: The people of God


Thematic Bible



If I forget you, O Jerusalem, may my right hand be crippled!


when the Lord rebuilds Zion, and reveals his splendor,

You said, "The Lord our God has shown us his great glory and we have heard him speak from the middle of the fire. It is now clear to us that God can speak to human beings and they can keep on living.


For the Lord's allotment is his people, Jacob is his special possession.

I commission you as my spokesman; I cover you with the palm of my hand, to establish the sky and to found the earth, to say to Zion, 'You are my people.'"

You made Israel your very own people for all time. You, O Lord, became their God.
