And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel; and he said, Because that this people hath transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened unto my voice; 21 I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations which Joshua left when he died: 22 That through them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep the way of the LORD to walk therein, as their fathers did keep it, or not. 23 Therefore the LORD left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua.
Book of Gad Seventeen
All the Philistines assembled themselves together to fight against Israel. There were so many multitudes of Philistines that they could not be numbered. 2 And David was greatly distressed because he was afraid of the Philistines. 3 And the LORD said to Gad: Go and tell David my servant: Do not be worried about these uncircumcised Philistines, because tomorrow I will give them, and those other oppressors with them, into your hand. 4 And David said to Gad: I AM not worthy of all the mercies that the LORD has shown to me, but blessed be the name of the LORD forever and ever. 5 That night, a fire-angel came from heaven with his drawn sword in his hand. 6 And he attacked the camp of the uncircumcised. It was such a great slaughter that none of them were left alive. 7 And it came to pass the next morning they came to David saying: Behold, all the Philistines have been killed by someone who rose up against them; not a single one of them was left alive. 8 And David raised his voice and said: Now I know that nothing can hinder the LORD. He can save us from many or few, and his salvation can be in a blink of an eye. 9 And he said: Blessed are you, O LORD, who has been taking revenge for us on our enemies. 10 And he set up a pillar and called it the Pillar of Revenge unto this day.
The Book of the Generation of Jesus Christ Eighteen
At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven? 2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, 3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. 4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven. 5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.
