ledge of the holy is understanding.

And when he had called the people unto him, with his Disciples

also: he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let

him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me.

Young men likewise exhort to be sober-minded.

The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the

righteousness.
