'Laying' in the Bible

Laying these things before the brethren, thou wilt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished with the words of the faith and of the good teaching which thou hast fully followed up.

Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.

Be laying hands quickly on no one, nor be having fellowship with sins of others; be keeping thyself pure;

be striving the good strife of the faith, be laying hold on the life age-during, to which also thou wast called, and didst profess the right profession before many witnesses.

Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
