Matthew 23:22

God's Word

And to swear an oath by heaven is to swear by God’s throne and the one who sits on it.

See the chapter Copy

The Lord is in his holy temple. The Lord’s throne is in heaven. His eyes see. They examine Adam’s descendants.

This is what the Lord says: Heaven is my throne. The earth is my footstool. Where can you build a house or resting place for me?

But I tell you don’t swear an oath at all. Don’t swear an oath by heaven, which is God’s throne,

‘The Lord says, “Heaven is my throne. The earth is my footstool. What kind of house are you going to build for me? Where will I rest?
