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.

Through
Hebrews 6:18
Thus by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be strongly encouraged.
leads to
- Numbers 23:19
  God is not a man, that He should lie, or a son of man, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and not act? Does He promise and not fulfill?
- Titus 1:2
  in the hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began.
- 1 Samuel 15:29
  Moreover, the Glory of Israel does not lie or change His mind, for He is not a man, that He should change His mind.”
- 2 Timothy 2:13
  if we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself.
- Romans 3:4
  Certainly not! Let God be true and every man a liar. As it is written: “So that You may be proved right when You speak and victorious when You judge.”
Through
Numbers 35:6
Six of the cities you give the Levites are to be appointed as cities of refuge, to which a manslayer may flee. In addition to these, give the Levites forty-two other cities.
leads to
- Joshua 21:13
  So to the descendants of Aaron the priest they gave these cities, together with their pasturelands: Hebron, a city of refuge for the manslayer, Libnah,
- Joshua 21:3
  So by the command of the LORD, the Israelites gave the Levites these cities and their pasturelands out of their own inheritance:
- Psalms 9:9
  The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.

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.

Deuteronomy 19:4Now this is the situation regarding the manslayer who flees to one of these cities to save his life, having killed his neighbor accidentally, without intending to harm him:Numbers 35:11designate cities to serve as your cities of refuge, so that a person who kills someone unintentionally may flee there.Deuteronomy 19:1–10When the LORD your God has cut off the nations whose land He is giving you, and when you have driven them out and settled in their cities and houses,Numbers 35:11–12designate cities to serve as your cities of refuge, so that a person who kills someone unintentionally may flee there.Hebrews 6:18Thus by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be strongly encouraged.Numbers 35:15–28These six cities will serve as a refuge for the Israelites and for the foreigner or stranger among them, so that anyone who kills a person unintentionally may flee there.Numbers 35:6Six of the cities you give the Levites are to be appointed as cities of refuge, to which a manslayer may flee. In addition to these, give the Levites forty-two other cities.
