Psalms 106:24
They despised the pleasant land; they did not believe His promise.
BSB
ASV
Yea, they despised the pleasant land, They believed not his word,
KJV
Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:
The heavenly Canaan is a pleasant land. A promise is left us of entering into it; but there are many that despise it, that neglect and refuse the offer of it, that prefer the wealth and pleasure of this world before it, and grudge the pains and hazards of this life to obtain that.
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 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.
