4.As the lid of the eye protects and cares for the eye. ------------ Instantly

Deut.32: 10He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye.

3Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
