Jacob 4:4, 14

Jacob 4:4

For, for this intent have we written these things,

that they may know that we knew of Christ,

and we had a hope of his glory many hundred years before his coming;

and not only we ourselves had a hope of his glory,

but also all the holy prophets which were before us.

Jacob 4:14

But behold, the Jews were a stiffnecked people;

and they despised the words of plainness, and killed the prophets,

and sought for things that they could not understand.

Wherefore, because of their blindness,

which blindness came by looking beyond the mark,

they must needs fall;

for God hath taken away his plainness from them,

and delivered unto them many things which they cannot understand,

because they desired it.

And because they desired it

God hath done it, that they may stumble.
