Famous quotes containing the words holy and/or sanctuary:
“Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for he has looked favorably on his people and redeemed them.

as he spoke through the mouth of his holy prophets from of old...”

“He took the props down used for propping open,
And set them up again for propping shut,
The widespread double doors two stories high.
The advantage-disadvantage of these doors
Was that tramp taking sanctuary there
Must leave them unlocked to betray his presence.”
