Bible: Hebrew Numbers 6:3.

Famous quotes containing the words hebrew and/or numbers:

    By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept: when we remembered Zion.
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalms, 137:1.

    Out of the darkness where Philomela sat,
    Her fairy numbers issued. What then ailed me?
    My ears are called capacious but they failed me,
    Her classics registered a little flat!
    I rose, and venomously spat.
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
