'Babes' in the Bible

At that time Jesus said, “I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to infants.

and said to Him, “Do You hear what these children are saying?” And Jesus *said to them, “Yes; have you never read, ‘Out of the mouth of infants and nursing babies You have prepared praise for Yourself’?”

But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!

But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!

At that very time He rejoiced greatly in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I praise You, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to infants. Yes, Father, for this way was well-pleasing in Your sight.

Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days; for there will be great distress upon the land and wrath to this people;

And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to infants in Christ.

Brethren, do not be children in your thinking; yet in evil be infants, but in your thinking be mature.

like newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may grow in respect to salvation,
