TESTIMONY

Back to Bible Dictionary

a witnessing, evidence, or proof, Acts xiv, 3. The whole
Scripture or word of God, which declares what is to be believed,
practised, and expected by us, is called God’s “testimony,” and
sometimes in the plural “testimonies,” Psalm xix, 7. The two tables of
stone on which the law or ten commandments were written, which were
witnesses of that covenant made between God and his people, and
testified what it was that God had required of them, have the same
title, Exod. xxv, 16, 21; xxxi, 18.
