door after him, And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so
wickedly. Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known
man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to
them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for
therefore came they under the shadow of my roof. And they said,
Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to
sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse
with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man,
even Lot, and came near to break the door. But the men put forth
their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to
the door. And they smote the men that were at the door of the
house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied
themselves to find the door. And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou
here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters,
and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this
place: For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is
waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent

Matthew 26:21-29, "And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I? And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me. The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born. Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said. And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom."

Habakkuk 1:6-8, "For, lo, I raise up the
Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march
through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwellingplaces
that are not theirs. They are terrible and dreadful: their
judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves. Their
horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce
than the evening wolves: and their horsemen shall spread
themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall
fly as the eagle that hasteth to eat."
Jeremiah 4:13, "Behold, he shall come up as
clouds, and his chariots shall be as a whirlwind: his horses are
swifter than eagles. Woe unto us! for we are spoiled."

the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought
you unto myself."

Jeremiah 6:2, "I have likened the daughter
of Zion to a comely and delicate woman."
Isaiah 51:16, "And I have put my words in thy
mouth, and I have covered thee in the shadow of mine hand, that I
may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and
say unto Zion, Thou art my people."
2 Corinthians 11:2, "For I am jealous over you with
godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I
may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ."
Ephesians 5:22-33, "Wives, submit yourselves unto
your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head
of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is
the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto
Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church,
and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it
with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it
to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any
such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. So
ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth
his wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh;
but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall
be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is
a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife
even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her
husband."

Scriptural facts:
Ezekiel 23:2-21, "Son of man, there were two
women, the daughters of one mother: And they committed whoredoms
in Egypt; they committed whoredoms in their youth: there were
their breasts pressed, and there they bruised the teats of their
virginity. And the names of them were Aholah the elder, and
Aholibah her sister: and they were mine, and they bare sons and
daughters. Thus were their names; Samaria is Aholah, and
Jerusalem Aholibah. And Aholah played the harlot when she was
mine; and she doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians her
neighbours, Which were clothed with blue, captains and rulers,
all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding upon horses.
Thus she committed her whoredoms with them, with all them that
were the chosen men of Assyria, and with all on whom she doted:
with all their idols she defiled herself. Neither left she her
whoredoms brought from Egypt: for in her youth they lay with her,
and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured their
whoredom upon her. Wherefore I have delivered her into the hand
of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians, upon whom she
doted. These discovered her nakedness: they took her sons and her
daughters, and slew her with the sword: and she became famous
among women; for they had executed judgment upon her. And when
her sister Aholibah saw this, she was more corrupt in her
inordinate love than she, and in her whoredoms more than her
sister in her whoredoms. She doted upon the Assyrians her
neighbours, captains and rulers clothed most gorgeously, horsemen
riding upon horses, all of them desirable young men. Then I saw
that she was defiled, that they took both one way, And that she
increased her whoredoms: for when she saw men pourtrayed upon the
wall, the images of the Chaldeans pourtrayed with vermilion,
Girded with girdles upon their loins, exceeding in dyed attire
upon their heads, all of them princes to look to, after the
manner of the Babylonians of Chaldea, the land of their nativity:
And as soon as she saw them with her eyes, she doted upon them,
and sent messengers unto them into Chaldea. And the Babylonians
came to her into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their
whoredom, and she was polluted with them, and her mind was
alienated from them. So she discovered her whoredoms, and
discovered her nakedness: then my mind was alienated from her,
like as my mind was alienated from her sister. Yet she multiplied
her whoredoms, in calling to remembrance the days of her youth,
wherein she had played the harlot in the land of Egypt. For she
doted upon their paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of asses,
and whose issue is like the issue of horses. Thus thou calledst
to remembrance the lewdness of thy youth, in bruising thy teats
by the Egyptians for the paps of thy youth."
Revelation 14:4, "These are they which were
not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they
which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed
from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the
Lamb."
Hosea 2:5, "For their mother hath played
the harlot: she that conceived them hath done shamefully: for she
said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my
water, my wool and my flax, mine oil and my drink."
Hosea 3:1, "Then said the LORD unto me,
Go yet, love a woman beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress,
according to the love of the LORD toward the children of Israel,
who look to other gods, and love flagons of wine."
Ezekiel 16:15-58, "But thou didst trust in thine
own beauty, and playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and
pouredst out thy fornications on every one that passed by; his it
was. And of thy garments thou didst take, and deckedst thy high
places with divers colours, and playedst the harlot thereupon:
the like things shall not come, neither shall it be so. Thou hast
also taken thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I
had given thee, and madest to thyself images of men, and didst
commit whoredom with them, And tookest thy broidered garments,
and coveredst them: and thou hast set mine oil and mine incense
before them. My meat also which I gave thee, fine flour, and oil,
and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou hast even set it before
them for a sweet savour: and thus it was, saith the Lord GOD.
Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou
hast borne unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to
be devoured. Is this of thy whoredoms a small matter, That thou
hast slain my children, and delivered them to cause them to pass
through the fire for them? And in all thine abominations and thy
whoredoms thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when
thou wast naked and bare, and wast polluted in thy blood. And it
came to pass after all thy wickedness, (woe, woe unto thee! saith
the Lord GOD;) That thou hast also built unto thee an eminent
place, and hast made thee an high place in every street. Thou
hast built thy high place at every head of the way, and hast made
thy beauty to be abhorred, and hast opened thy feet to every one
that passed by, and multiplied thy whoredoms. Thou hast also
committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, great of
flesh; and hast increased thy whoredoms, to provoke me to anger.
Behold, therefore I have stretched out my hand over thee, and
have diminished thine ordinary food, and delivered thee unto the
will of them that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines,
which are ashamed of thy lewd way. Thou hast played the whore
also with the Assyrians, because thou wast unsatiable; yea, thou
hast played the harlot with them, and yet couldest not be
satisfied. Thou hast moreover multiplied thy fornication in the
land of Canaan unto Chaldea; and yet thou wast not satisfied
herewith. How weak is thine heart, saith the Lord GOD, seeing
thou doest all these things, the work of an imperious whorish
woman; In that thou buildest thine eminent place in the head of
every way, and makest thine high place in every street; and hast
not been as an harlot, in that thou scornest hire; But as a wife
that committeth adultery, which taketh strangers instead of her
husband! They give gifts to all whores: but thou givest thy gifts
to all thy lovers, and hirest them, that they may come unto thee
on every side for thy whoredom. And the contrary is in thee from
other women in thy whoredoms, whereas none followeth thee to
commit whoredoms: and in that thou givest a reward, and no reward
is given unto thee, therefore thou art contrary. Wherefore, O
harlot, hear the word of the LORD: Thus saith the Lord GOD;
Because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness
discovered through thy whoredoms with thy lovers, and with all
the idols of thy abominations, and by the blood of thy children,
which thou didst give unto them; Behold, therefore I will gather
all thy lovers, with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all them
that thou hast loved, with all them that thou hast hated; I will
even gather them round about against thee, and will discover thy
nakedness unto them, that they may see all thy nakedness. And I
will judge thee, as women that break wedlock and shed blood are
judged; and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy. And I
will also give thee into their hand, and they shall throw down
thine eminent place, and shall break down thy high places: they
shall strip thee also of thy clothes, and shall take thy fair
jewels, and leave thee naked and bare. They shall also bring up a
company against thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and
thrust thee through with their swords. And they shall burn thine
houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in the sight of
many women: and I will cause thee to cease from playing the
harlot, and thou also shalt give no hire any more. So will I make
my fury toward thee to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from
thee, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry. Because
thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast fretted
me in all these things; behold, therefore I also will recompense
thy way upon thine head, saith the Lord GOD: and thou shalt not
commit this lewdness above all thine abominations. Behold, every
one that useth proverbs shall use this proverb against thee,
saying, As is the mother, so is her daughter. Thou art thy
mother's daughter, that lotheth her husband and her children; and
thou art the sister of thy sisters, which lothed their husbands
and their children: your mother was an Hittite, and your father
an Amorite. And thine elder sister is Samaria, she and her
daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister,
that dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom and her daughters. Yet
hast thou not walked after their ways, nor done after their
abominations: but, as if that were a very little thing, thou wast
corrupted more than they in all thy ways. As I live, saith the
Lord GOD, Sodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters,
as thou hast done, thou and thy daughters. Behold, this was the
iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and
abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither
did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. And they were
haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took
them away as I saw good. Neither hath Samaria committed half of
thy sins; but thou hast multiplied thine abominations more than
they, and hast justified thy sisters in all thine abominations
which thou hast done. Thou also, which hast judged thy sisters,
bear thine own shame for thy sins that thou hast committed more
abominable than they: they are more righteous than thou: yea, be
thou confounded also, and bear thy shame, in that thou hast
justified thy sisters. When I shall bring again their captivity,
the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of
Samaria and her daughters, then will I bring again the captivity
of thy captives in the midst of them: That thou mayest bear thine
own shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done,
in that thou art a comfort unto them. When thy sisters, Sodom and
her daughters, shall return to their former estate, and Samaria
and her daughters shall return to their former estate, then thou
and thy daughters shall return to your former estate. For thy
sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy
pride, Before thy wickedness was discovered, as at the time of
thy reproach of the daughters of Syria, and all that are round
about her, the daughters of the Philistines, which despise thee
round about. Thou hast borne thy lewdness and thine abominations,
saith the LORD."
