Understanding the word "BOWELS OF MERCIES"

 

The word ‘Bowl’ means a round deep dish or container used to hold food or fruits or any liquid. As in verbs, ‘bowl’ can be used to mean throwing a ball in a correct manner in a cricket match or as in noun, it can be used in a sentence like, ‘The bowl was perfect and clean’.

The Phrase, “Bowels of mercies…….” In Colossians 3:12 was mistakenly interpreted as “Bowls of mercies…….”

“Bowl” and “Bowel”- are the two different words which look alike with a slight or minimal difference in sound and spelling but with quite two  different meanings. I was mistaken with the word ‘Bowel’ which I took for ‘Bowl’.

I have come across some phrases or idioms such as, ‘a fresh cup of Grace and a bowl of Mercy’, ‘Bowl for Mercy’, ‘Mercy Bowl’ etc. “Mercy Bowl’ is a name of an event organized to strike up a new awareness and raise charitable funds to support St. Louis Mercy Home and girls. But the interesting fact is that the phrase as ‘Bowls of Mercies…..’ cannot be found in any modern Dictionary nor in the internet.   Continue here

If there’s one thing that will set fashion Twitter ablaze, it’s a new Telfar drop. The label’s perpetually sold-out vegan-leather tote bags have become a status symbol as recognizable as a Dior saddle bag or a Fendi baguette but at a more accessible price point.
