Genesis 26:
There was famine in the land where Isaac was living in, so they went to Abimelech, the king of Gerar. Because the Lord had told them not to go into Egypt. While they were in Gerar, Isaac told people that Rebekah was his sister. However King Abimelech saw him caressing Rebekah. He met and discussed the issue with Isaac, and announced that anyone who molests Isaac or Rebekah would be put to death. They lived in peace. However, Isaac's possessions became too big that the men in the land envied him. They filled up all the wells dugged by Abraham. King Abimelech asked them to leave becasue Isaac had became too powerful. When they left. They dug wells elsewhere. However everytime they dug a well, the men from Gerar would come and claim that it was theirs. So Isaac left. When they moved for the third time, they dug a well and no one fought against them. Therefore, they settled there. Then Isaac went to Beersheba, where God spoke to him and told him that he would be blessed. Isaac built and altar there and settled again. Then Abimalech came to Isaac and made a treaty with him that Isaac would never do harm to his people, for when he was in Gerar, King Abimelch had treated him nicely, and had him go in peace. When Esau was forty, he took two hittie women to be wives, and Isaac and Rebekah were dissapointed.
Matthew 25:
(all in red)
The coming of the Christ will be like the coming of the bridegroom. When five of the foolish virgins go to buy oil for their lamp that is going out, the other five wise bvirgins who brought oil themselves will meet the groom, and go to the weeding banquate with him, for they are prepared. The foolish ones will come after the door has closed and beg in, but the doorkeeper will reply I don't know you.
A maaster gave talents to his sevans before he goes onto his trip. 5 to one, 2 to another, 1 to one more, according to their talents. When the master comes back, the one with 5 and 2 have doubled their talents, but the one with 1 gave back what he received, for he hid the talent and did not go out. The master threw him out, and gave the talents to the one with 10. He said that whoever who has more and use it will receive more, and whoever recives less but doesn't use it, even the little will be taken away.
During judgement day, Jesus will sit on his throne an judge people one by one, his sheep on the right, and goats onthe left. He will tell the sheep that they have blessed Jesus so they could come with him, and those on the left that they didnt help him when he was in need, so they cannot come with him. Both sides would ask when and why, and Jesus will say that whoever bless his people has blessed him, and whoever doesn't bless him people doesn't bless him and therefore, they cannot follow him.
