1 | Is The Quote In The Bible? Where? | Deut 23:18 | Gill Fisher | 231995 | ||
I have been a Pastor for over 40 years. Yesterday, an older lady in my church asked if the quote, "Beware the man with the price of a dog in his pocket" is in the Bible. I told her that I didn't think so, and that I didn't remember ever seeing it. I have searched many translations without finding it, but a "Google Search" turned up the exact quote in a response letter to something someone had written in Field and Stream Magazine. The writer say, "You people need to know that the Bible says, 'Beware the man with the price of a dog in his pocket." The closest thing I can find is a verse in Deuteronomy that says not to bring the price of a dog into the house of God. Is that where it comes from? Can anyone shed any light at all on this? Where does the idea that the quote, "Beware the man with the price of a dog in his pocket" is in the Bible come from? Thanks |

The person who attributed this quotation to the Bible was simply wrong, just like those who think "Cleanliness is next to godliness" is from the Bible. It's ignorance of the Bible. It may be an adage based on a misinterpretation. | ||||||
