Paul states: “They were stoned, they were tried, they were sawn asunder, they died by slaughter with the sword, they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins, while they were in want, in tribulation, under ill - treatment. ”
פאולוס אומר שהם ” נסקלו, נוסו בעינויים, נוסרו במשׂור, הומתו בחרב, נעו ונדו עטופי עורות כבשים ועיזים, בסובלם מחסור, צרות והתעללות ” (‏ עב ’ י ” א: 37‏).
