Psalms 80:13
80:13 The wild boars of the forest ruin it;
the insects of the field feed on it.
Ezekiel 13:4-16
13:4 Your prophets have become like jackals among the ruins, O Israel.
13:5 You have not gone up in the breaks in the wall, nor repaired a wall for the house of Israel that it would stand strong in the battle on the day of the
Lord.
13:6 They see delusion and their omens are a lie.
They say, “the
Lord declares,” though the
Lord has not sent them;
yet they expect their word to be confirmed.
13:7 Have you not seen a false vision and announced a lying omen when you say, “the
Lord declares,” although I myself never spoke?
13:8 “‘Therefore, this is what the sovereign Lord says: Because you have spoken false words and forecast delusion, look, I am against you, declares the sovereign Lord.
13:9 My hand will be against the prophets who see delusion and announce lying omens. They will not be included in the council of my people, nor be written in the registry of the house of Israel, nor enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the sovereign Lord.
13:10 “‘This is because they have led my people astray saying, “All is well,” when things are not well. When anyone builds a wall without mortar, they coat it with whitewash.
13:11 Tell the ones who coat it with whitewash that it will fall. When there is a deluge of rain, hailstones will fall and a violent wind will break out.
13:12 When the wall has collapsed, people will ask you, “Where is the whitewash you coated it with?”
13:13 “‘Therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says: In my rage I will make a violent wind break out. In my anger there will be a deluge of rain and hailstones in destructive fury.
13:14 I will break down the wall you coated with whitewash and knock it to the ground so that its foundation is exposed. When it falls you will be destroyed beneath it, and you will know that I am the Lord.
13:15 I will vent my rage against the wall, and against those who coated it with whitewash. Then I will say to you, “The wall is no more and those who whitewashed it are no more –
13:16 those prophets of Israel who would prophesy about Jerusalem and would see visions of peace for it, when there was no peace,” declares the sovereign Lord.’
Luke 13:32
13:32 But
he said to them, “Go
and tell that fox,
‘Look, I am casting out demons and performing healings today and tomorrow, and on the third day
I will complete my work.
Luke 13:2

answered them, “Do you think these Galileans were worse sinners
than all the other Galileans, because they suffered these things?
Luke 2:1-3
The Census and the Birth of Jesus
2:1 Now in those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus to register all the empire for taxes.

Revelation 2:2
2:2 ‘I know your works as well as your
labor and steadfast endurance, and that you cannot tolerate
evil. You have even put to the test
those who refer to themselves as apostles (but are not), and have discovered that they are false.
