Then they said, Come and let us devise schemes against Jeremiah. For the Law shall not perish from the priest, nor wisdom from the wise, nor the Word from the prophet. Come and let us strike him with the tongue, and let us not pay attention to any of his words.

Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. Behold, how large a forest a little fire kindles.

For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be as God, knowing good and evil.

who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is honored, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, declaring of himself that he is God.
