‘Cursed is he who moves his neighbor’s boundary stone.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’
BSB
ASV
Cursed be he that removeth his neighbor’s landmark. And all the people shall say, Amen.
KJV
Cursed be he that removeth his neighbour’s landmark. And all the people shall say, Amen.
Cursed be he that removeth his neighbour's landmark,.... Removes it backward, and steals ground, as Jarchi explains it; this is commonly done secretly; see Deu 19:14, and all the people shall say Amen; See Gill on Deu 27:15; See Gill on Deu 27:16.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
The walk5
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.
