The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs 76
Zebulun 8
In the last days God sendeth His compassion on the earth and dwelleth in him who hath bowels of mercy.
1ave therefore yourselves also, my children, compassion towards every man with mercy, that the Lord also may have compassion upon you, and have mercy upon you; because also in the last days God sendeth His compassion on the earth, and wheresoever He findeth bowels of mercy, He dwelleth in him.
2 For how much compassion a man hath upon his neighbours, so much also hath the Lord upon him.
3 For when we went down into Egypt, Joseph bore no malice against us, and when he saw me he was filled with compassion.
4 And looking towards him, do ye also, my children, approve yourselves without malice, and love one another; and reckon not each one the evil of his brother, for this breaketh unity, and divideth all kindred, and troubleth the soul: for he who beareth malice hath not bowels of mercy.
Did You Know?
In the last days God sendeth His compassion on the earth and dwelleth in him who hath bowels of mercy.
The amount of compassion a man hath upon his neighbours equals the compassion the Lord hath upon him.
When they went down into Egypt, Joseph bore no malice and was filled with compassion when he saw the speaker.
Reckoning each one the evil of his brother breaketh unity, divideth all kindred, and troubleth the soul.
Children must approve themselves without malice and love one another, for he who beareth malice hath not bowels of mercy.
