- shall bear:
- To counterbalance the high honour conferred on Aaron and his family, and to allay the fears and abate the envy of the people, it is here declared, that the priest must bear the blame of everything which was not properly conducted in the sanctuary. "Neither¹ must the childrenª of Israelª henceforthª come nighª°¹ the tabernacleª of the congregation,ª lest they bearª° sin,ª and die.ª°" {Num 18:22} + "After the numberª of the daysª in which¹ ye searchedª°¹ the land,ª [even] fortyª days,ª each day² for a year,ªª shall ye bearª°¹ your iniquities,ª [even] fortyª years,ª and ye shall knowª°¹ my breach of promise.ª" {Num 14:34} + "And it shall be¹ upon¹ Aaron'sª forehead,ª that Aaronª may bearª°¹ the iniquityª of the holy things,ª which¹ the childrenª of Israelª shall hallowª° in all¹ their holyª gifts;ª and it shall be¹ alwaysª upon¹ his forehead,ª that they may be acceptedª beforeª the LORD.ª" {Exd 28:38} + "They shall therefore keepª°¹ mine ordinance,ª lest¹ they bearª° sinª for¹ it, and dieª° therefore, if¹ they profaneª° it: I¹ the LORDª do sanctifyª° them." {Lev 22:9} + "All¹ we like sheepª have gone astray;ª° we have turnedª° every oneª to his own way;ª and the LORDª hath laidª° on him¹ the iniquityª of us all.¹" {Isa 53:6} + "He shall seeª° of the travailª¹ of his soul,ª [and] shall be satisfied:ª° by his knowledgeª shall my righteousª servantª justifyª° many;ª for he¹ shall bearª° their iniquities.ª" {Isa 53:11} + "When I sayª° unto the wicked,ª Thou shalt surely²° die;ª° and thou givest him not warning,ª°¹ nor¹ speakestª° to warnª° the wickedª from his wickedª way,ª¹ to save his life;ª° the same¹ wickedª [man] shall dieª° in his iniquity;ª but his bloodª will I requireª° at thine hand.ª¹ ... Yet if¹ thou¹ warnª° the wicked,ª and he turnª° not¹ from his wickedness,ª¹ nor from his wickedª way,ª¹ he¹ shall dieª° in his iniquity;ª but thou¹ hast deliveredª°¹ thy soul.ª" {Ezk 3:18-19} + "Whereforeª I take²° you² to recordª°¹ thisª² day,ª thatª Iª [am] pureª fromª the¹ bloodª of allª [men]. ... Forª I have²° notª² shunnedª° to¹ declareª° unto youª allª the¹ counselª of God.ª" {Act 20:26-27} + "Obeyª° them that have the rule²° over¹ you,ª andª submit¹ yourselves:²° forª theyª watchª° forª yourª souls,ª asª they that must giveª° account,ª thatª they may doª° itª withª joy,ª andª notª with grief:ª° forª thatª [is] unprofitableª for you.ª" {Hbr 13:17} + "Whoª his own self²¹ bareª° ourª sinsª inª his own²¹ bodyª onª the¹ tree,ª thatª we,²° being deadª° to sins,ª should liveª° unto righteousness:ª by² whose²¹ stripesª ye were healed.ª°" {1Pe 2:24}
