Mark 4:27 Cross References - Etheridge

²⁷ and shall sleep, and rise up by night and day, and the seed shall increase, and become long, while he knoweth not,

⁷ Wonder not that I have said to thee, that it behoves you to be born anew. ⁸ The wind bloweth where she willeth,* and her voice thou hearest; but thou knowest not whence she cometh, nor whither she goeth: so is every man who is born of the Spirit. [* Rucho signifies either the Spirit, or the wind; as, in like manner, does the corresponding Greek word wneuma and hence most of the versions of the latter have, "The Spirit bloweth where he willeth;" but in the Syriac text the verbs and the pronominal affix to the noun "voice" being in the feminine, the application of Rucho to the Holy Spirit seems not to have been contemplated. OLSHAUSEN on the Greek text has well said, "The comparison itself, and the expression, fwnhn autou, show, beyond doubt, that wneuma does not here mean the breath of the Divine Spirit, but the wind properly so called."]

³⁷ and that thing which thou sowest is not the body that is to be, but thou sowest naked grain, of wheat, or of barley, or of the rest of seeds; ³⁸ but Aloha giveth it a body as he willeth, and to each of the seeds a body of its own nature.

³ To give thanks we owe to Aloha at all time on behalf of you, my brethren, as it is proper; because your faith greatly increaseth, and the love of you all, of every man toward his neighbour, enlargeth;

¹⁸ But increase in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and our Saviour Jeshu Meshiha, and (of) Aloha the Father, Whose be glory both now, and in all time, and to the days eternal. Amen.
