Matthew 23:21

American King James Version (1999)

And whoever shall swear by the temple, swears by it, and by him that dwells therein.

See the chapter Copy

LORD, I have loved the habitation of your house, and the place where your honor dwells.

I have surely built you an house to dwell in, a settled place for you to abide in for ever.

But I have built an house of habitation for you, and a place for your dwelling for ever.

For in him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.

In whom you also are built together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

And the priests could not enter into the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD had filled the LORD's house.

But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain you; how much less this house that I have built?

Whoever therefore shall swear by the altar, swears by it, and by all things thereon.
