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.

Psalms 55:13But it is you, a man like myself, my companion and close friend.Psalms 41:9Even my close friend whom I trusted, the one who shared my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.2 Samuel 15:31Now someone told David: “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” So David pleaded, “O LORD, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness!”Joshua 15:51Goshen, Holon, and Giloh—eleven cities, along with their villages.2 Samuel 16:23Now in those days the advice of Ahithophel was like the consultation of the word of God. Such was the regard that both David and Absalom had for Ahithophel’s advice.Psalms 55:12–14For it is not an enemy who insults me; that I could endure. It is not a foe who rises against me; from him I could hide.Titus 1:16They profess to know God, but by their actions they deny Him. They are detestable, disobedient, and unfit for any good deed.2 Samuel 17:23When Ahithophel saw that his advice had not been followed, he saddled his donkey and set out for his house in his hometown. He put his affairs in order and hanged himself. So he died and was buried in his father’s tomb.2 Samuel 17:14Then Absalom and all the men of Israel said, “The advice of Hushai the Archite is better than that of Ahithophel.” For the LORD had purposed to thwart the good counsel of Ahithophel in order to bring disaster on Absalom.1 Kings 21:12They proclaimed a fast and gave Naboth a seat of honor among the people.Proverbs 21:27The sacrifice of the wicked is detestable—how much more so when brought with ill intent!2 Samuel 23:34Eliphelet son of Ahasbai the Maacathite, Eliam son of Ahithophel the Gilonite,Psalms 4:5Offer the sacrifices of the righteous and trust in the LORD.Numbers 23:30So Balak did as Balaam had instructed, and he offered a bull and a ram on each altar.Psalms 3:1–2O LORD, how my foes have increased! How many rise up against me!Psalms 50:16–21To the wicked, however, God says, “What right have you to recite My statutes and to bear My covenant on your lips?1 Kings 21:9In the letters she wrote: “Proclaim a fast and give Naboth a seat of honor among the people.John 13:18I am not speaking about all of you; I know whom I have chosen. But this is to fulfill the Scripture: ‘The one who shares My bread has lifted up his heel against Me.’
