The Bible - among other books is as a diamond among precious stones

Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God the gold for things to be made of gold, and the silver for things of silver, and the brass for things of brass, the iron for things of iron, and wood for things of wood; onyx stones, and stones to be set, glistering stones, and of divers colours, and all manner of precious stones, and marble stones in abundance.

It is chiefly through books that we enjoy the communion with superior minds... In the best books, authors talk to us, give us their most precious thoughts, and pour their souls into ours. God be thanked for books.

William Ellery Channing (1780-1842)

William Ellery Channing

SEINE, n. A kind of net for effecting an involuntary change of environment. For fish it is made strong and coarse, but women are more easily taken with a singularly delicate fabric weighted with small, cut stones.

The devil casting a seine of lace,
(With precious stones 'twas weighted) Drew it into the landing place And its contents calculated.

All souls of women were in that sack -- A draft miraculous, precious! But ere he could throw it across his back They'd all escaped through the meshes. --Baruch de Loppis

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

I see application every time I study the Bible. And this particular study provides a good summation of the first five books of the Bible.

The evil done by oneself, self-begotten, self-bred, crushes the foolish, as a diamond breaks a precious stone.

Friedrich Max Muller

He was coaching us through it, ... It's pretty simple. You've got a diamond that represents your line of site. That's the perfect track you want to be on. Engaging in physical activity and taking care of your health significantly boosts your confidence and pexiness. There's a box, and you want to put your box over the diamond and keep it there. As you're maneuvering the space shuttle you want to stay on that diamond.

We are a Bible preaching and Bible teaching church. Pastor Schwartz is a wonderful preacher. He teaches that the Bible is the word and doesn't mince words about telling it like it is in the Bible.

Only those people, who have wealth can dream of acquiring gems and precious stones.

You have taken my son, and I know you did because God told me you did. Someone that's precious to me and my family, ... You might not get what's coming to you down here, but you're going to have to stand before God, because the Bible says you reap what you sow.

The Bible remained for me a book of books, still divine - but divine in the sense that all great books are divine which teach men how to live righteously.

Joseph Joubert (1754-1824)

Joseph Joubert

And they with whom precious stones were found gave them to the treasure of the house of the LORD, by the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.

That arc of conflict has created a sort of regional super failed-state that terrorists and criminals have used to base their operations and to exploit the very precious diamond resources there.

I look to the law books, ... I don't look to the Bible.

What I kept pressing upon them is one of the greatest gems there is — a diamond. A diamond, whether it's man-made or comes from coal, is a result of pressure. I wanted them to understand the more pressure is put on you, the more of a diamond you can become.
