Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.

Where the connections lead

Follow this verse’s cross-references two steps out. Each card is a verse this one points to, and beneath it the verses that one points to in turn. Where several different paths arrive at the same place, that place is listed first: the text keeps returning to it. Every stop shows its own words, and every stop is a page.

The gold bar shows how strongly the cross-reference sources tie the two verses together: a long bar means many compiled references make the connection, a short one means few.

When we were in the field, we were not harassed, and nothing of ours went missing the whole time we lived among them.Romans 12:21Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.Ephesians 4:31Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, outcry and slander, along with every form of malice.Ephesians 4:26“Be angry, yet do not sin.” Do not let the sun set upon your anger,1 Samuel 25:7Now I hear that it is time for shearing.
