- The flat-roofed eastern houses have stairs on the outside, by which a person may ascend and descend without coming into the house; and in walled cities they usually form continued terraces, from one end of the city to the other, terminating at the gates; so that one may pass along the tops of the houses and escape out of the city without coming down into the street. "And Satanª answeredª°¹ the LORD,ª and said,ª° Skin² for skin,ª¹ yea, all¹ that¹ a manª hath will he giveª° for¹ his life.ª" {Job 2:4} + "And seekestª° thou¹ great thingsª for thyself? seekª° [them] not:¹ for,¹ behold,¹ I will bringª° evilª upon¹ all¹ flesh,ª saithª° the LORD:ª but¹ thy lifeª will I giveª° unto thee for a preyª in¹ all¹ placesª whither¹¹ thou goest.²°¹" {Jer 45:5} + "Thereforeªª I sayª° unto you,ª Take no² thoughtª°¹ for yourª life,ª whatª ye shall eat,ª° orª whatª ye shall drink;ª° nor yet¹ for² yourª body,ª whatª ye shall put on.ª° Isª° notª the¹ lifeª more¹ than² meat,ª andª the¹ bodyª than raiment?ª" {Mtt 6:25} + "Forª whatª is a manª profited,ª° ifª he shall gainª° the¹ wholeª world,ª and²¹ loseª° his own²¹ soul?ª orª whatª shall a manª giveª° in exchangeª for his²¹ soul?ª" {Mtt 16:26} + "Let him¹ which is onª the¹ housetopª notª come downª° to takeª° any thingª out ofª his²¹ house:ª ...
