Famous quotes containing the words historical and/or jesus:

    “It is hard to believe that England is so near as from your letters it appears; and that this identical piece of paper has lately come all the way from there hither, begrimed with the English dust which made you hesitate to use it; from England, which is only historical fairyland to me, to America, which I have put my spade into, and about which there is no doubt.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Do not put the LORD your God to the test...”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 6:16.

    Scripture cited by Jesus when tempted in the wilderness.
