    I think you told me in another thread that I would not believe you if you showed me. So my response is I think you would not believe me if I told you.

    Then if someone chooses to observe it, that is their business. I don't know of anyone who observes every event in the Bible. Not once in my life have I observed Passover or the Year of Jubilee.

    I looked at that verse, and was at first mystified. It says:
    And the LORD had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they granted them what they requested. Thus they plundered the Egyptians.




    That's from the NKJV. Then I looked at the verse in the AV (KJV), and I realised that you meant that the word "lent" occurs in the AV translation of that verse.
