Appears 14 times in Scripture
“Just as you who formerly disobeyed God have now received mercy through their disobedience,”
“who disobeyed long ago when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built. In the ark a few people, only eight souls, were saved through water.”
“so they too have now disobeyed, in order that they too may now receive mercy through the mercy shown to you.”
“But when some of them stubbornly refused to believe and publicly maligned the Way, Paul took his disciples and left the synagogue to conduct daily discussions in the lecture hall of Tyrannus.”
“And to whom did He swear that they would never enter His rest? Was it not to those who disobeyed?”
“Pray that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service in Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints there,”
“But as for Israel he says: “All day long I have held out My hands to a disobedient and obstinate people.””
“Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life. Whoever rejects the Son will not see life. Instead, the wrath of God remains on him.””
“and, “A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense.” They stumble because they disobey the word—and to this they were appointed.”
“But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow wickedness, there will be wrath and anger.”
