Description

BEHOLD the story of our LORD in this amazing Gospel!!!

The word BEHOLD is such a powerful word. It screams to me HEY!!! Look you fool and listen, pay attention, this is important. It is used 1,068 times in the ESV Holy Bible with 131 uses in the book of Jeremiah alone. However, I want to start with the Gospel of Matthew because we devote ourselves to the Apostles teachings (Acts 2:42). BEHOLD is used 40 times in this Gospel. I will be making more BEHOLD!!! verse sets later on down the road. I hope you enjoy them!

*I encourage you to memorize these verses alongside your Bible, so that you can read the full context in which every BEHOLD is used.*

They aren't all "winner" verses to memorize but every BEHOLD is significant when you think about the context and the series of events that transpired to create that "BEHOLD" moment.
