- my brethren:
- "Then all¹ Israelª gathered²° themselves¹ to¹ Davidª unto Hebron,ª saying,ª° Behold,¹ we¹ [are] thy boneª and thy flesh.ª ... Therefore cameª° all¹ the eldersª of Israelª to¹ the kingª to Hebron;ª and Davidª madeª° a covenantª with them in Hebronª beforeª the LORD;ª and they anointedª°¹ Davidª kingª over¹ Israel,ª according to the wordª of the LORDª byª Samuel.ª" {1Ch 11:1-3} + "Thou shalt in any wise²° setª° [him] kingª over¹ thee, whom¹ the LORDª thy Godª shall choose:ª° [one] from amongª¹ thy brethrenª shalt thou setª° kingª over¹ thee: thou mayestª° not¹ setª° a strangerªª over¹ thee, which¹ [is] not¹ thy brother.ª" {Deu 17:15} + "That his heartª be not¹ lifted upª° above his brethren,ª¹ and that he turn not asideª°¹ from¹ the commandment,ª [to] the right hand,ª or [to] the left:ª to the end that¹ he may prolongª° [his] daysª in¹ his kingdom,ª he,¹ and his children,ª in the midstª of Israel.ª" {Deu 17:20} + "I will declareª° thy nameª unto my brethren:ª in the midstª of the congregationª will I praiseª° thee." {Psa 22:22} + "Forª bothª he that sanctifiethª° andª they who are sanctifiedª° [are] allª ofª one:ª forª whichª causeª he is²° notª ashamedª° to callª° themª brethren,ª ... Saying,ª° I will declareª° thyª nameª unto myª brethren,ª inª the midstª of the churchª will I sing praiseª° unto thee.ª" {Hbr 2:11-12}
