3 And I will make thee swear by the LORD, the God of heaven, and the God of the earth, that thou shalt not take a wife unto my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell:

20 And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.
