Bible: Hebrew Genesis

Famous quotes containing the words hebrew and/or genesis:

    Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord.
    —Bible: Hebrew Proverbs, 18:22.

    Power is, in nature, the essential measure of right. Nature suffers nothing to remain in her kingdoms which cannot help itself. The genesis and maturation of a planet, its poise and orbit, the bended tree recovering itself from the strong wind, the vital resources of every animal and vegetable, are demonstrations of the self-sufficing and therefore self-relying soul.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
