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.

Matthew 11:28Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.Matthew 11:30For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”Matthew 23:4They tie up heavy, burdensome loads and lay them on men’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.Galatians 5:1It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not be encumbered once more by a yoke of slavery.Galatians 4:9But now that you know God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you are turning back to those weak and worthless principles? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again?Hebrews 9:9It is an illustration for the present time, because the gifts and sacrifices being offered were unable to cleanse the conscience of the worshiper.Galatians 4:3So also, when we were children, we were enslaved under the basic principles of the world.Isaiah 7:12But Ahaz replied, “I will not ask; I will not test the LORD.”Matthew 11:28–30Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.Matthew 4:7Jesus replied, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”Exodus 17:2So the people contended with Moses, “Give us water to drink.” “Why do you contend with me?” Moses replied. “Why do you test the LORD?”Hebrews 3:9where your fathers tested and tried Me, and for forty years saw My works.Acts 5:9“How could you agree to test the Spirit of the Lord?” Peter replied. “Look, the feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”1 Timothy 6:1All who are under the yoke of slavery should regard their masters as fully worthy of honor, so that God’s name and our teaching will not be discredited.Galatians 4:1–5What I am saying is that as long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, although he is the owner of everything.1 Corinthians 8:1Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.Acts 15:31When the people read it, they rejoiced at its encouraging message.Lamentations 5:5We are closely pursued; we are weary and find no rest.
