If brothers are living together and one of them dies without a son, his widow must not marry outside the family. Her husband’s brother shall take her and marry her and fulfill the duty of a brother-in-law to her. The first son she bears shall carry on the name of the dead brother so that his name will not be blotted out from Israel. (Deuteronomy 25:5-6)
“I never make promises lightly, and there have been some I’ve broken, but I swear in the days still left, we will walk in fields of gold.” – (Sting – 1993 – Ten Summoner’s Tales album.)
“You’ll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You’ll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in fields of gold.” – (Sting – from his song lyrics in Fields of Gold)
“This was the only shame he felt. And this shame was so great in him that he wondered if all his life thereafter would be long enough to wash it out of his brain and blood and the last pollution of its loathsome taint. And yet, he would have it thought that he was bitter.” -(Thomas Wolfe – You Can’t Go Home Again)
“Burn the ships. Cut the ties. Send the flame into the night. Say a prayer. Turn the tide. Dry your tears and wave goodbye. Step into a new day. We can rise up from the dust and walk away. We can dance upon a heartache, yeah, So light a torch, leave the port, burn the ship and don’t look back.” (Joel Smallbone, Luke Smallbone, Matt Hales, Seth Mosley of THE KING AND COUNTRY)
