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.

Numbers 14:42Do not go up, lest you be struck down by your enemies, because the LORD is not among you.Psalms 60:10Have You not rejected us, O God? Will You no longer march out, O God, with our armies?Numbers 14:41–43But Moses said, “Why are you transgressing the commandment of the LORD? This will not succeed!Joshua 7:8–13O Lord, what can I say, now that Israel has turned its back and run from its enemies?Isaiah 59:1–2Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor His ear too dull to hear.1 Samuel 4:2The Philistines arrayed themselves against Israel, and as the battle spread, Israel was defeated by the Philistines, who struck down about four thousand men on the battlefield.Leviticus 26:17And I will set My face against you, so that you will be defeated by your enemies. Those who hate you will rule over you, and you will flee when no one pursues you.Hosea 9:12Even if they raise their children, I will bereave them of each one. Yes, woe be to them when I turn away from them!Isaiah 30:17A thousand will flee at the threat of one; at the threat of five you will all flee, until you are left alone like a pole on a mountaintop, like a banner on a hill.1 Samuel 4:10So the Philistines fought, and Israel was defeated, and each man fled to his tent. The slaughter was very great—thirty thousand foot soldiers of Israel fell.
