'Hearers' in the Bible
Why are you questioning me? put questions to my hearers about what I have said to them: they have knowledge of what I said.
For it is not the hearers of the law who will be judged as having righteousness before God, but only the doers:
Put these things before them, giving them orders in the name of the Lord to keep themselves from fighting about words, which is of no profit, only causing error in their hearers.
And, truly, the good news came to us, even as it did to them; but the hearing of the word did them no good, because they were not united in faith with the true hearers.
So that as it is clear that some have to go in, and that the first hearers of the good news were not able to go in because they went against God's orders,
And to the sound of a horn, and the voice of words, the hearers of which made request that not a word more might be said to them:
But be doers of the word, and not only hearers of it, blinding yourselves with false ideas.
