Psalm 116:16 (c) These bonds are a description of the habits, customs, and traditions that bind the Christian before the truth of GOD sets him free to serve in GOD's way. The same picture is seen in the case of Lazarus. The grave clothes of death held him as the old habits and ways of people hold them. CHRIST sets free.

Jeremiah 5:5 (b) The bonds in this passage are the legitimate and rightful laws of GOD in His path, but the leaders had thrown away these restraining influences of the work of the Lord.

Luke 13:16 (b) The sickness which this woman suffered is described as a bond because it hindered her from living a normal life.

Acts 8:23 (b) This man, because of avarice and desire to buy spiritual power, was said to be bound by the bond of iniquity - an unholy desire.

Colossians 3:14 (b) Love is described as a bond which holds us in the right relationship to GOD and to others and makes us what we should be.
