lol, hey close can count for some things! whats interesting is light on day 1 and then the sun, moon and stars on day 4 has meaning to itl it's part of the design, days 1, 2, 3 are the creation of realms in ancienty near eastern hebrew and days 4, 5, and 6 are the population of those realms... some very smart Hebrew and Christian scholars do some cool work on this

Fear not.

I like your signature. It reminded me of the thought that had recently occurred to me; that I would've never ventured to even look into other languages if it weren't for the Bible.

Exodus 34:6 God's character traits are one of the most quoted by the rest of the bible itself (over twenty times).
6b “The LORD, the LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth"
my first thought was to answer, "the LORD" but feared I'd be read in a characteristic that is common to me :cautious:
But that "the LORD" is repeated here does seem to indicate a necessity, by merit of being God's Word, rather than a redundancy. It implores us that we should pay double attention, imo. And indeed, we can compare characterizations of the LORD against this verse to determine whether He is known amongst them who proclaim it, as this is within the context of God proclaiming His Name.

I am shocked a bit...
I would thought it was "Abraham believed God and it was credited to him as righteousness." That one is quoted a lot too.

Next question, where is the first appearance of the word sin in the Hebrew bible?

Let me be sure to be clear, Exo 34:6 is one of the most quoted, doesn't mean other's are also not quoted a lot, hope that helps :) To another point, repetition does seem to indicate importance for a lot of biblical studies :)

(I thought) The parameters of the question were limited to those repetitions within scripture, and thus was I guessed, "fear not." However, I recognize the reasoning of achieving a condition of fearing not is in correlation to God's Name and His character.

The bible is the source :) and lots of other smart people and word study tools (like logos.com help to), it's intriguing to look and explore around and discover the bible and some of these ways, at least I think so :)

Now I wonder how many times 'Abraham believed God...' does appear, I might have to add that to the list to check out! lol

I would have never guessed Exo 34:6 either, though, not without looking it up. I like to learn new things, especially relating to the Bible.

Hmm, “In the beginning God…” or John 3:16?
