What harmony has Christ with Belial?
2 Corinthians 6:15
Even though I’ve been looking for it, it was still a shock when I found it, and not at all what I was expecting. This seems to be the only occurrence of “harmony” (συμφώνησις symphōnēsis, in the Greek) in the New Testament [1].
“What harmony has Christ with Belial?” is a fearsome admonition. Who or what is Belial? If Belial means idolators (so says my Big Book of the Bible), then the next verse is the challenge and reminder:
And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God.
2 Corinthians 6:16
