Hebrews 4:12 Douay-Rheims

For the word of God is living and effectual, and more piercing than any two edged sword; and reaching unto the division of the soul and the spirit, of the joints also and the marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Francis Patrick Kenrick

1796–1863 Catholic

Penetrating the whole man — the inmost recesses of the heart. The revealed word, embraced with faith, sinks into the mind, and becomes the regulating principle of one's whole life. The parts of the body are referred to, with a view of expressing more fully its efficacy.
