New Cyclopedia of Illustrations Hebrews 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more… There was an ancient custom of putting an hour-glass into the coffin of the dead, to signify that their time had run out — a useless notification to them. Better put the hour-glass into the hand of every living man, and show them the grains gliding steadily out. Soon all will be gone. (New Cyclopedia of Illustrations.) Parallel Verses KJV: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. |
