And [2532] I intreat [2065] thee [4571] also [2532], true [1103] yokefellow [4805], help [4815] those women [846] which [3748] laboured [4866] with me [3427] in [1722] the gospel [2098], with [3326] Clement [2815] also [2532], and [2532] with other [3062] my [3450] fellowlabourers [4904], whose [3739] names [3686] are in [1722] the book [976] of life [2222]. |

And--Greek, "Yea."
true yoke-fellow--yoked with me in the same Gospel yoke (Mat 11:29-30; compare Ti1 5:17-18). Either Timothy, Silas (Act 15:40; Act 16:19, at Philippi), or the chief bishop of Philippi. Or else the Greek, "Sunzugus," or "Synzygus," is a proper name: "Who art truly, as thy name means, a yoke-fellow." Certainly not Paul's wife, as Co1 9:5 implies he had none.
help those women--rather, as Greek, "help them," namely, Euodia and Syntyche. "Co-operate with them" [BIRKS]; or as ALFORD, "Help in the work of their reconciliation."
which laboured with me--"inasmuch as they labored with me." At Philippi, women were the first hearers of the Gospel, and Lydia the first convert. It is a coincidence which marks genuineness, that in this Epistle alone, special instructions are given to women who labored with Paul in the Gospel. In selecting the first teachers, those first converted would naturally be fixed on. Euodia and Syntyche were doubtless two of "the women who resorted to the riverside, where prayer was wont to be made" (Act 16:13), and being early converted, would naturally take an active part in teaching other women called at a later period; of course not in public preaching, but in a less prominent sphere (Ti1 2:11-12).
Clement--bishop of Rome shortly after the death of Peter and Paul. His Epistle from the Church of Rome to the Church of Corinth is extant. It makes no mention of the supremacy of the See of Peter. He was the most eminent of the apostolical fathers. ALFORD thinks that the Clement here was a Philippian, and not necessarily Clement, bishop of Rome. But ORIGEN [Commentary, Joh 1:29] identifies the Clement here with the bishop of Rome.
in the book of life--the register-book of those whose "citizenship is in heaven" (Luk 10:20; Phi 3:20). Anciently, free cities had a roll book containing the names of all those having the right of citizenship (compare Exo 32:32; Psa 69:28; Eze 13:9; Dan 12:1; Rev 20:12; Rev 21:27). |
Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
And I entreat thee also, true yoke-fellow - It is not known to whom the apostle refers here. No name is mentioned, and conjecture is useless. All that is known is, that it was someone whom Paul regarded as associated with himself in labor, and one who was so prominent at Philippi that it would be understood who was referred to, without more particularly mentioning him. The presumption, therefore. is, that it was one of the ministers, or "bishops" (see the notes at Phi 1:1) of Philippi, who had been particularly associated with Paul when he was there. The Epistle was addressed to the "church with the bishops and deacons" Phi 1:1; and the fact that this one had been particularly associated with Paul, would serve to designate him with sufficient particularity. Whether he was related to the women referred to, is wholly unknown. Doddridge supposes that he might be the husband of one of these women; but of that there is no evidence. The term "yoke-fellow" - συζυγος suzugos - some have understood as a proper name (Syzygus); but the proper import of the word is yoke-fellow, and there is no reason to believe that it is used here to denote a proper name. If it had been, it is probable that some other word than that used here and rendered "true" - γνήσιος gnēsios - would have been employed. The word "true" - γνήσιος gnēsios - means that he was sincere, faithful, worthy of confidence. Paul had had evidence of his sincerity and fidelity; and he was a proper person, therefore, to whom to entrust a delicate and important business.
Help those women - The common opinion is, tidal the women here referred to were Euodias and Syntyche, and that the office which the friend of Paul was asked to perform was, to secure a reconciliation between them. There is, however, no certain evidence of this The reference seems rather to be to influential females who had rendered important assistance to Paul when he was there. The kind of "help" which was to be imparted was probably by counsel, and friendly cooperation in the duties which they were called to perform, There is no evidence that it refers to pecuniary aid; and, had it referred to a reconciliation of those who were at variance, it is probable that some other word would have been used than that rendered here as "help" - συλλαμβάνου sullambanou.
Which laboured with me in the gospel - As Paul did not permit women to preach (see Ti1 2:12; compare the notes at Co1 10:5), he must have referred here to some other services which they had rendered. There were deaconesses in the primitive churches (see the Rom 16:1 note; Ti1 5:9., note), to whom was probably entrusted particularly the care of the female members of a church. In the custom which prevailed in the oriental world, of excluding females from the public gaze, and of confining them to their houses, it would not be practicable for the apostles to have access to them. The duties of instructing and exhorting them were then probably entrusted chiefly to pious females; and in this way important aid would be rendered in the gospel. Paul could regard such as "laboring with him," though they were not engaged in preaching.
With Clement also - That is, they were associated with Clement, and with the other fellow-laborers of Paul, in aiding him in the gospel. Clement as doubtless someone who was well known among them; and the apostle felt that, by associating them with him, as having been real helpers in the gospel, their claim to respectful attention would be better appreciated. Who Clement was, is unknown. Most of the ancients say it was Clement of Rome, one of the primitive fathers. But there is no evidence of this. The name Clement was common, and there is no improbability in supposing that there might have been a preacher of this name in the church at Philippi.
Whose names are in the book of life - see the notes at Isa 4:3. The phrase, "the book of life," which occurs here, and in Rev 3:5; Rev 13:8; Rev 20:12, Rev 20:15; Rev 21:27; Rev 22:19, is a Jewish phrase, and refers originally to a record or catalogue of names, as the roll of an army. It then means to be among the living, as the name of an individual would be erased from a catalog when he was deceased. The word "life" here refers to eternal life; and the whole phrase refers to those who were enrolled among the true friends of God, or who would certainly be saved. The use of this phrase here implies the belief of Paul that these persons were true Christians. Names that are written in the book of life will not be blotted out. If the hand of God records them there who can obliterate them? |
Vincent's Word Studies, by Marvin R. Vincent [1886] |
True yoke-fellow (γνήσιε σύνζυγε)
For true, see on naturally, Phi 2:20. It is supposed by some that the word rendered yoke-fellow is a proper name, Synzygus, and that true is to be explained as rightly so called. This explanation would be favored by the play upon the name Onesimus in the Epistle to Philemon, and is not improbably correct. The name has not been found in inscriptions, as is the case with many of the names in these epistles, as, for instance, Euodia and Syntyche. Some suppose that the chief of the bishops or superintendents at Philippi is thus addressed; but, in that case, the word would probably appear elsewhere in the New Testament. Clement of Alexandria, assuming that Paul was married, thinks that he addresses his wife. Others suppose that Lydia is addressed.
Help (συλλαμβάνου)
Lit., take hold with. Compare Luk 5:7. The verb is used of conception, Luk 1:24; arrest, Mat 26:55; Act 12:3; catching, as fish, Luk 5:9. Compare the compound συναντιλάμβανομαι help, Luk 10:40 (note); Rom 8:26.
Which labored with me (αἵτινες συνήθλησάν μοι)
The double relative explains and classifies: for they belonged to the number of those who labored. Rev., for they labored. Labored, lit., strove as athletes, as Phi 1:27. Compare Sophocles: "These girls preserve me, these my nurses, these who are men, not women, in laboring with me" ("Oedipus at Colonus," 1367-8).
Clement
Supposed by some to be Clement the Bishop of Rome. Origen identifies them, saying: "Clement to whom Paul bears Testimony in Phi 4:3." So also Eusebius, Epiphanius, and Jerome. Chrysostom speaks of Clement as the constant companion of Paul in all his travels. Irenaeus, on the contrary, who mentions him as the pupil of an apostle, says nothing of his connection with Paul, by name, and would not have been likely to pass over this identity in silence had he been aware of it. Clement was a member of the Roman church, and the name was a very common one. A Roman consul, Flavius Clemens, was sentenced to death by Domitian on account of atheism, which was the common pagan designation of Christianity. The Roman catacombs furnish evidence that Christianity had penetrated into the Flavian family, so that there may have been two prominent Christians in Rome of the same name. The identity of Clement of Rome with the Clement of this epistle has been very generally abandoned. The latter was probably a Philippian.
Other (τῶν λοιπῶν)
Rev., correctly, the rest.
Book of life
The phrase occurs seven times in Revelation. Compare Luk 10:20; Heb 12:23, and see on Rev 3:5. The figure is founded on the register of the covenant people. Isa 4:3; Eze 13:9; Exo 32:32; Psa 69:28; Dan 12:1. The phrase was also used by the Rabbins. Thus in the Targum on Eze 13:9 : "In the book of eternal life which has been written for the just of the house of Israel, they shall not be written." God is described as "the king, sitting upon the judgment-seat, with the books of the living and the books of the dead open before Him." |
Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible, by John Wesley [1754-65] |
And I entreat thee also, true yokefellow - St. Paul had many fellowlabourers, but not many yokefellows. In this number was Barnabas first, and then Silas, whom he probably addresses here; for Silas had been his yokefellow at the very place, Act 16:19. Help those women who laboured together with me - Literally, who wrestled. The Greek word doth not imply preaching, or anything of that kind; but danger and toil endured for the sake of the gospel, which was also endured at the same time, probably at Philippi, by Clement and my other fellowlabourers - This is a different word from the former, and does properly imply fellowpreachers. Whose names, although not set down here, are in the book of life - As are those of all believers. An allusion to the wrestlers in the Olympic games, whose names were all enrolled in a book. Reader, is thy name there? Then walk circumspectly, lest the Lord blot thee out of his book! |
Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
Help those women which labored with me - Both in the Grecian and Asiatic countries women were kept much secluded, and is was not likely that even the apostles had much opportunity of conversing with them; it was therefore necessary that they should have some experienced Christian women with them, who could have access to families, and preach Jesus to the female part of them. The apostle tells us that certain women labored with him in the Gospel, and were assistants to others also who had assisted him.
Some think the women here were Euodias and Syntyche; but I rather incline to the opinion that Syntyche was a male, and Euodias his wife. Euodias signifies a pleasant scent; Syntyche, fortunate. There have been a number of conjectures who these persons were, and who is meant by the true yokefellow; but as there is nothing certain known on the subject, it is useless to propagate conjecture.
With Clement also - Supposed to be the same who was afterwards bishop of Rome, and who wrote an epistle to the Corinthians, which is still extant.
Whose names are in the book of life - Who are genuine Christians; who are enlisted or enrolled in the armies of the Lord, and have received a title to eternal glory. The reader is requested to refer to the note on Exo 32:32-33 (note), and the concluding observations at the end of that chapter, (Exo 32:35 (note)) where the writing in and blotting out of the book of life are particularly considered, and the difficulties on the subject removed. See also on Luk 10:20 (note). |
27 And [2532] there shall [1525] in no wise [3364] enter [1525] into [1519] it [846] any thing [3956] that defileth [2840], neither [2532] whatsoever worketh [4160] abomination [946], or [2532] maketh a lie [5579]: but [1508] they which are written [1125] in [1722] the Lamb's [721] book [975] of life [2222].
12 And [2532] I saw [1492] the dead [3498], small [3398] and [2532] great [3173], stand [2476] before [1799] God [2316]; and [2532] the books [975] were opened [455]: and [2532] another [243] book [975] was opened [455], which [3739] is [2076] the book of life [2222]: and [2532] the dead [3498] were judged [2919] out of [1537] those things which were written [1125] in [1722] the books [975], according to [2596] their [846] works [2041].
1 And at that time [06256] shall Michael [04317] stand up [05975], the great [01419] prince [08269] which standeth [05975] for the children [01121] of thy people [05971]: and there shall be [01961] a time [06256] of trouble [06869], such as never was since there was a nation [01471] even to that same time [06256]: and at that time [06256] thy people [05971] shall be delivered [04422], every one that shall be found [04672] written [03789] in the book [05612].
9 And mine hand [03027] shall be upon the prophets [05030] that see [02374] vanity [07723], and that divine [07080] lies [03577]: they shall not be in the assembly [05475] of my people [05971], neither shall they be written [03789] in the writing [03791] of the house [01004] of Israel [03478], neither shall they enter [0935] into the land [0127] of Israel [03478]; and ye shall know [03045] that I am the Lord [0136] GOD [03069].
28 Let them be blotted [04229] out of the book [05612] of the living [02416], and not be written [03789] with the righteous [06662].
32 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive [05375] their sin [02403]--; and if not, blot [04229] me, I pray thee, out of thy book [05612] which thou hast written [03789].
20 For [1063] our [2257] conversation [4175] is [5225] in [1722] heaven [3772]; from [1537] whence [3739] also [2532] we look for [553] the Saviour [4990], the Lord [2962] Jesus [2424] Christ [5547]:
20 Notwithstanding [4133] in [1722] this [5129] rejoice [5463] not [3361], that [3754] the spirits [4151] are subject [5293] unto you [5213]; but [1161] rather [3123] rejoice [5463], because [3754] your [5216] names [3686] are written [1125] in [1722] heaven [3772].
29 The next day [1887] John [2491] seeth [991] Jesus [2424] coming [2064] unto [4314] him [846], and [2532] saith [3004], Behold [2396] the Lamb [286] of God [2316], which [3588] taketh away [142] the sin [266] of the world [2889].
11 Let [3129] the woman [1135] learn [3129] in [1722] silence [2271] with [1722] all [3956] subjection [5292].
12 But [1161] I suffer [2010] not [3756] a woman [1135] to teach [1321], nor [3761] to usurp authority [831] over the man [435], but [235] to be [1511] in [1722] silence [2271].
13 And [5037] on the sabbath [4521] [2250] we went [1831] out of [1854] the city [4172] by [3844] a river side [4215], where [3757] prayer [4335] was wont [3543] to be made [1511]; and [2532] we sat down [2523], and spake [2980] unto the women [1135] which resorted [4905] thither.
5 Have we [2192] not [3378] power [1849] to lead about [4013] a sister [79], a wife [1135], as well as [5613] [2532] other [3062] apostles [652], and [2532] as the brethren [80] of the Lord [2962], and [2532] Cephas [2786]?
19 And [1161] when her [846] masters [2962] saw [1492] that [3754] the hope [1680] of their [846] gains [2039] was gone [1831], they caught [1949] Paul [3972] and [2532] Silas [4609], and drew [1670] them into [1519] the marketplace [58] unto [1909] the rulers [758],
40 And [1161] Paul [3972] chose [1951] Silas [4609], and departed [1831], being recommended [3860] by [5259] the brethren [80] unto the grace [5485] of God [2316].
17 Let [515] the elders [4245] that rule [4291] well [2573] be counted worthy [515] of double [1362] honour [5092], especially [3122] they who labour [2872] in [1722] the word [3056] and [2532] doctrine [1319].
18 For [1063] the scripture [1124] saith [3004], Thou shalt [5392] not [3756] muzzle [5392] the ox [1016] that treadeth out the corn [248]. And [2532], The labourer [2040] is worthy [514] of his [846] reward [3408].
29 Take [142] my [3450] yoke [2218] upon [1909] you [5209], and [2532] learn [3129] of [575] me [1700]; for [3754] I am [1510] meek [4235] and [2532] lowly [5011] in heart [2588]: and [2532] ye shall find [2147] rest [372] unto your [5216] souls [5590].
30 For [1063] my [3450] yoke [2218] is easy [5543], and [2532] my [3450] burden [5413] is [2076] light [1645].
19 And [2532] if [1437] any man [5100] shall take away [851] from [575] the words [3056] of the book [976] of this [5129] prophecy [4394], God [2316] shall take away [851] his [846] part [3313] out of [575] the book [976] of life [2222], and [2532] out of [1537] the holy [40] city [4172], and [2532] from the things which are written [1125] in [1722] this [5026] book [975].
27 And [2532] there shall [1525] in no wise [3364] enter [1525] into [1519] it [846] any thing [3956] that defileth [2840], neither [2532] whatsoever worketh [4160] abomination [946], or [2532] maketh a lie [5579]: but [1508] they which are written [1125] in [1722] the Lamb's [721] book [975] of life [2222].
15 And [2532] whosoever [1536] was [2147] not [3756] found [2147] written [1125] in [1722] the book [976] of life [2222] was cast [906] into [1519] the lake [3041] of fire [4442].
12 And [2532] I saw [1492] the dead [3498], small [3398] and [2532] great [3173], stand [2476] before [1799] God [2316]; and [2532] the books [975] were opened [455]: and [2532] another [243] book [975] was opened [455], which [3739] is [2076] the book of life [2222]: and [2532] the dead [3498] were judged [2919] out of [1537] those things which were written [1125] in [1722] the books [975], according to [2596] their [846] works [2041].
8 And [2532] all [3956] that dwell [2730] upon [1909] the earth [1093] shall worship [4352] him [846], whose [3739] names [3686] are [1125] not [3756] written [1125] in [1722] the book [976] of life [2222] of the Lamb [721] slain [4969] from [575] the foundation [2602] of the world [2889].
5 He that overcometh [3528], the same [3778] shall be clothed [4016] in [1722] white [3022] raiment [2440]; and [2532] I will [1813] not [3364] blot out [1813] his [846] name [3686] out of [1537] the book [976] of life [2222], but [2532] I will confess [1843] his [846] name [3686] before [1799] my [3450] Father [3962], and [2532] before [1799] his [846] angels [32].
3 And it shall come to pass, that he that is left [07604] in Zion [06726], and he that remaineth [03498] in Jerusalem [03389], shall be called [0559] holy [06918], even every one that is written [03789] among the living [02416] in Jerusalem [03389]:
9 Let [2639] not [3361] a widow [5503] be taken into the number [2639] under [1640] threescore [1835] years old [2094], having been [1096] the wife [1135] of one [1520] man [435],
1 [1161] I commend [4921] unto you [5213] Phebe [5402] our [2257] sister [79], which is [5607] a servant [1249] of the church [1577] which [3588] is at [1722] Cenchrea [2747]:
5 But [235] with [1722] many [4119] of them [846] God [2316] was [2106] not [3756] well pleased [2106]: for [1063] they were overthrown [2693] in [1722] the wilderness [2048].
12 But [1161] I suffer [2010] not [3756] a woman [1135] to teach [1321], nor [3761] to usurp authority [831] over the man [435], but [235] to be [1511] in [1722] silence [2271].

9 And mine hand [03027] shall be upon the prophets [05030] that see [02374] vanity [07723], and that divine [07080] lies [03577]: they shall not be in the assembly [05475] of my people [05971], neither shall they be written [03789] in the writing [03791] of the house [01004] of Israel [03478], neither shall they enter [0935] into the land [0127] of Israel [03478]; and ye shall know [03045] that I am the Lord [0136] GOD [03069].
1 And at that time [06256] shall Michael [04317] stand up [05975], the great [01419] prince [08269] which standeth [05975] for the children [01121] of thy people [05971]: and there shall be [01961] a time [06256] of trouble [06869], such as never was since there was a nation [01471] even to that same time [06256]: and at that time [06256] thy people [05971] shall be delivered [04422], every one that shall be found [04672] written [03789] in the book [05612].
28 Let them be blotted [04229] out of the book [05612] of the living [02416], and not be written [03789] with the righteous [06662].
32 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive [05375] their sin [02403]--; and if not, blot [04229] me, I pray thee, out of thy book [05612] which thou hast written [03789].
9 And mine hand [03027] shall be upon the prophets [05030] that see [02374] vanity [07723], and that divine [07080] lies [03577]: they shall not be in the assembly [05475] of my people [05971], neither shall they be written [03789] in the writing [03791] of the house [01004] of Israel [03478], neither shall they enter [0935] into the land [0127] of Israel [03478]; and ye shall know [03045] that I am the Lord [0136] GOD [03069].
3 And it shall come to pass, that he that is left [07604] in Zion [06726], and he that remaineth [03498] in Jerusalem [03389], shall be called [0559] holy [06918], even every one that is written [03789] among the living [02416] in Jerusalem [03389]:
5 He that overcometh [3528], the same [3778] shall be clothed [4016] in [1722] white [3022] raiment [2440]; and [2532] I will [1813] not [3364] blot out [1813] his [846] name [3686] out of [1537] the book [976] of life [2222], but [2532] I will confess [1843] his [846] name [3686] before [1799] my [3450] Father [3962], and [2532] before [1799] his [846] angels [32].
23 To the general assembly [3831] and [2532] church [1577] of the firstborn [4416], which are written [583] in [1722] heaven [3772], and [2532] to God [2316] the Judge [2923] of all [3956], and [2532] to the spirits [4151] of just men [1342] made perfect [5048],
20 Notwithstanding [4133] in [1722] this [5129] rejoice [5463] not [3361], that [3754] the spirits [4151] are subject [5293] unto you [5213]; but [1161] rather [3123] rejoice [5463], because [3754] your [5216] names [3686] are written [1125] in [1722] heaven [3772].
3 And [2532] I intreat [2065] thee [4571] also [2532], true [1103] yokefellow [4805], help [4815] those women [846] which [3748] laboured [4866] with me [3427] in [1722] the gospel [2098], with [3326] Clement [2815] also [2532], and [2532] with other [3062] my [3450] fellowlabourers [4904], whose [3739] names [3686] are in [1722] the book [976] of life [2222].
27 Only [3440] let your conversation be [4176] as it becometh [516] the gospel [2098] of Christ [5547]: that [2443] whether [1535] I come [2064] and [2532] see [1492] you [5209], or [1535] else be absent [548], I may hear [191] of your [5216] affairs [4012], that [3754] ye stand fast [4739] in [1722] one [1520] spirit [4151], with one [3391] mind [5590] striving together [4866] for the faith [4102] of the gospel [2098];
26 [1161] Likewise [5615] the Spirit [4151] also [2532] helpeth [4878] our [2257] infirmities [769]: for [1063] we know [1492] not [3756] what [5101] we should pray for [4336] as [2526] we ought [1163]: but [235] the Spirit [4151] itself [846] maketh intercession [5241] for [5228] us [2257] with groanings [4726] which cannot be uttered [215].
40 But [1161] Martha [3136] was cumbered [4049] about [4012] much [4183] serving [1248], and [1161] came to him [2186], and said [2036], Lord [2962], dost [3199] thou [4671] not [3756] care [3199] that [3754] my [3450] sister [79] hath left [2641] me [3165] to serve [1247] alone [3441]? bid [2036] her [846] therefore [3767] that [2443] she help [4878] me [3427].
9 For [1063] he [846] was astonished [4023] [2285], and [2532] all [3956] that were [4862] with him [846], at [1909] the draught [61] of the fishes [2486] which [3739] they had taken [4815]:
3 And [2532] because he saw [1492] it [3754] pleased [2076] [701] the Jews [2453], he proceeded further [4369] to take [4815] Peter [4074] also [2532]. (Then [1161] were [2258] the days [2250] of unleavened bread [106].)
55 In [1722] that same [1565] hour [5610] said [2036] Jesus [2424] to the multitudes [3793], Are ye come out [1831] as [5613] against [1909] a thief [3027] with [3326] swords [3162] and [2532] staves [3586] for to take [4815] me [3165]? I sat [2516] daily [2250] [2596] with [4314] you [5209] teaching [1321] in [1722] the temple [2411], and [2532] ye laid [2902] no [3756] hold [2902] on me [3165].
24 And [1161] after [3326] those [5025] days [2250] his [846] wife [1135] Elisabeth [1665] conceived [4815], and [2532] hid [4032] herself [1438] five [4002] months [3376], saying [3004],
7 And [2532] they beckoned [2656] unto their partners [3353], which [3588] were in [1722] the other [2087] ship [4143], that they should come [2064] and help [4815] them [846]. And [2532] they came [2064], and [2532] filled [4130] both [297] the ships [4143], so [5620] that they [846] began to sink [1036].
20 For [1063] I have [2192] no man [3762] likeminded [2473], who [3748] will naturally [1104] care [3309] for your [5216] state [4012].
19 And [1161] when her [846] masters [2962] saw [1492] that [3754] the hope [1680] of their [846] gains [2039] was gone [1831], they caught [1949] Paul [3972] and [2532] Silas [4609], and drew [1670] them into [1519] the marketplace [58] unto [1909] the rulers [758],
20 Notwithstanding [4133] in [1722] this [5129] rejoice [5463] not [3361], that [3754] the spirits [4151] are subject [5293] unto you [5213]; but [1161] rather [3123] rejoice [5463], because [3754] your [5216] names [3686] are written [1125] in [1722] heaven [3772].
35 And the LORD [03068] plagued [05062] the people [05971], because [0834] they made [06213] the calf [05695], which [0834] Aaron [0175] made [06213].
32 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive [05375] their sin [02403]--; and if not, blot [04229] me, I pray thee, out of thy book [05612] which thou hast written [03789].
33 And the LORD [03068] said [0559] unto Moses [04872], Whosoever [0834] hath sinned [02398] against me, him will I blot out [04229] of my book [05612].
