  8. 1Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?” 2And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; 3but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die.’” 4Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate.

Am I my brother’s keeper?” 10 And He said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the ground. 11 So now you are cursed from the earth, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand. 12 When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield its strength to you.

Behold, I will certainly bring calamity on this people— the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not heeded My words nor My law, but rejected it. 20 For what purpose to Me comes frankincense from Sheba, and sweet cane from a far country? Your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices sweet to Me.” • Amos 5:21 • 21 “ I hate, I despise your feast days, and I do not savor your sacred assemblies. 22 hough you offer Me burnt offerings and your grain offerings, I will not accept them, nor will I regard your fattened peace offerings.

God’s Displeasure with Animal Sacrifices • Hebrews 10:5-9 • 5 Therefore, when He came into the world, He said: “ Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but a body You have prepared for Me. 6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You had no pleasure. 7 Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come— in the volume of the book it is written of Me— to do Your will, O God.’” • 8 Previously saying, “Sacrifice and offering, burnt offerings, and offerings for sin You did not desire, nor had pleasure in them ” (which are offered according to the law), 9 then He said, “Behold, I have come to do Your will, O God.” He takes away the first that He may establish the second. 10 By that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. The Berean Approach

  36. Isaiah 53:1-5 1 Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed? 2For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground. He has no form or comeliness; and when we see Him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him. 3He is despised and rejected by men, a Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. 4 Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. 5 But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.

Kings shall shut their mouths at Him; for what had not been told them they shall see, and what they had not heard they shall consider. #8074= devastated #4758= appearance #4893= disfigurement #8389= physical figure The Berean Approach

His appearance will be so disfigured that he won’t look like any other man. His looks will be so disfigured that he will hardly look like a human. 15He will cleanse many nations with his blood. Kings will shut their mouths because of him. They will see things that they had never been told. They will understand things that they had never heard. The Berean Approach

  40. Isaiah 52:13-15 Contemporary English Version 13The LORD says: My servant will succeed! He will be given great praise and the highest honors. 14Many were horrified at what happened to him.

And the writing was: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS. The Berean Approach

  43. John 19:17-22 20 Then many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin. 21 Therefore the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but, ‘He said, “I am the King of the Jews.”’” 22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.” The Berean Approach

Anyone who can say anything in His favor, let him come forward and plead on His behalf.’ But since nothing was brought forward in His favor He was hanged on the eve of Passover!” - The Babylonian Talmud, Sanhedrin, Chapter Six, Folios 42B-49A The Babylonian Talmud, Sanhedrin, Chapter Six, Folios 42B-49A The Berean Approach
