Re: Hosea 4:6
It is also said of knowledge [among other things]: Woe to you, lawyers! for you have taken away the key of knowledge: you entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in you hindered.Luke 11:52 ?
But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. Matthew 23:13
There is not all but one life, when the soul is diverted by man's energy, if one so chooses to live a life of accommodation.
They hid the key, but not the knowledge itself.
