Dear Bertall, I think you might be looking for Psalm 90:10. However, read the whole chapter that Moses was not affirming the life expectancy is 70 years, but... "...sings of the frailty of man, and the shortness of life, contrasting therewith the eternity of God, and founding thereon earnest appeals for compassion....... Moses himself lived longer than this, but his was the exception not the rule: in his day life had come to be very much the same in duration as it is with us. This is brevity itself compared with the men of the elder time; it is nothing when contrasted with eternity. Yet is life long enough for virtue and piety, and all too long for vice and blasphemy." -- Charles Spurgeon Shalom Azure |
