23:16 “Woe to you, blind guides, who say, ‘Whoever swears by the temple is bound by nothing. 1 But whoever swears by the gold of the temple is bound by the oath.’ 23:17 Blind fools! Which is greater, the gold or the temple that makes the gold sacred? 23:18 And, ‘Whoever swears by the altar is bound by nothing. 2 But if anyone swears by the gift on it he is bound by the oath.’ 23:19 You are blind! For which is greater, the gift or the altar that makes the gift sacred? 23:20 So whoever swears by the altar swears by it and by everything on it. 23:21 And whoever swears by the temple swears by it and the one who dwells in it. 23:22 And whoever swears by heaven swears by the throne of God and the one who sits on it.
57:15 For this is what the high and exalted one says,
the one who rules 3 forever, whose name is holy:
“I dwell in an exalted and holy place,
but also with the discouraged and humiliated, 4
in order to cheer up the humiliated
and to encourage the discouraged. 5
66:1 This is what the Lord says:
“The heavens are my throne
and the earth is my footstool.
Where then is the house you will build for me?
Where is the place where I will rest?
