Members phkrause Posted August 29, 2008 Members Posted August 29, 2008 Its the Harper Study Bible. Revised Standard Version. My NIV bible says: 65"So Solomon observed the festival at that time, and all Israel with him-a vast assembly, people from Lebo Hamath to the Wadi if Egypt. They celebrated it before the Lord our God for seven days and seven days more, fourteen in all. 66 On the following day he sent the people away." The New Living Translation puts it this way: verses 65&66 "Then Solomon and all Israel celebrated the Festival of Shelters in the presence of the Lord our God. A large congregation had gathered from as far away as Lebo-hamath in the north and Brook of Egypt in the south. The celebration went on for fourteen days in all-seven days for the dedication of the altar and seven days for the Festival of Shelters. After the festival was over, Solomon sent the people home. They blessed the king and went to their homes joyful and glad because the Lord had been good to his servant David and to his people Israel." pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.

Neil D Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 he Calling of the First Disciples Matthew 4:18As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. 19"Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men." 20At once they left their nets and followed him. 21Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus called them, 22and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him. I would say that James and John were partners with Peter and Andrew.... Quote Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve. Â George Bernard Shaw Â
