Together With Unbelievers: (2 Corinthians 6:14) KJV
My memory banks opened on this scripture today, when I happened to meet our neighbours dogs, Sophie and Seven, being walked by their owner, as I was walking Cloe.
Seven, smiling at me
Sophia, ready to defend her territory
You see, Sophia is about twice the size of Seven, even though they came from the same litter. (Seven may have been the runt.) When they walk together, Sophia is in control: where she wants to go, they both go, since Seven doesn’t have the body to resist her sister.
And that makes it awkward for them both.
When St. Paul wrote these words, he was referring to the yoking together of two oxen (or at least the translators were).
Here’s the full verse:
2 Corinthians 6:14
“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?”
King James Version (KJV)
