I ask a not so trivial Bible trivia question – What OT passage about God is most frequently quoted by OT persons?

Luke may have majored in math since he described the early church with words like full number, added, increased, and multiplied. Becoming and being church was a matter of doing the math.

“Oh, the B I B L E, that’s the book for me.”

I have been told to shut up a few times recently. More often I regret that I opened my mouth. But I refer to a colloquial exclamation of shock, surprise, or incredulity at some event in one’s life. On a deeper level, Scripture speaks of times when God’s prophets “shut their mouths” or tell their hearers to be silent. Let us inquire what they have to say to us.

While we traditionally call Abraham the “father of faith” it might be better to call him and his wife the father and mother of faith strugglers.
