2 Esdras 7:5 Context
3And I said, Speake on, my God. Then said he vnto me, The Sea is set in a wide place, that it might be deepe and great. 4But put the case the entrance were narrow, and like a riuer, 5Who then could goe into the Sea to looke vpon it, and to rule it? If hee went not through the narrow, how could he come into the broad? 6There is also another thing. A city is builded, and set vpon a broad field, and is full of all good things. 7The entrance thereof is narrow, and is set in a dangerous place to fall, like as if there were a fire on the right hand, and on the left a deepe water.
