AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ezekiel 20:5 and say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "On the day when I chose Israel and lifted up My hand and swore to the descendants of the house of Jacob and made Myself known to them in the land of Egypt, when I swore to them, saying, I am the LORD your God, |
Subject: I chose Israel and lifted up My hand? |
Bible Note: Hi Searcher, Thank you for the Scriptures. Is this a complete list for Strong's #3027, "lifting up the hand"? Exodus 6:8 Nehemiah 9:15 Psalm 106:26 Ezekiel 36:7 Ezekiel 44:12 Ezekiel 20:5,5,6,15,23,28,42 All of those I would translate "lifted up My hand" rather than swore or sworn. Numbers 14:30 is one that I wonder about. The NASB marginal note says [raised My hand] but the NKJ marginal note says [solemnly promised]. Thanks again. From the heart,Ray P.S. What do you mean by "His lifting His hands is a picture of what man did." |
