Context in the wider sense is needed: And Jehovah said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job? for there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and turneth away from evil. (Job 1:8)
An excerpt from a book:
Throughout recorded time, and probably since the end of the Neolithic Age,
there have been three kinds of people in the world, the High, the Middle,
and the Low. They have been subdivided in many ways, they have borne
countless different names, and their relative...
The passage mentions waylaying refugees when it is read in context. Naturally the quote I gave was of the two verses that struck me - I explained that in the first post. The full passages reads thus:Vision of Obadiah: about Edom. I have received a message from Jehovah, a herald has been sent...
There you go again wagging a metaphorical finger :nono:

Now that we're agreed that God said such and such about Passover in the old covenant scriptures and that in Jesus' days on Earth such and such happened on the annual Passover days and that during the last week of the Lord Jesus Christ's life the passover of that year marked the time of the...
Canadians are Americans and Canada takes in many refugees. The USA is a little less generous despite being approximately ten times the population and more than ten times the economic size of Canada. People from the USA are also Americans as are Brazilians and Mexicans.
