Grace

THE NEW TESTAMENT SAYS WE LIVE BY GRACE:

CHESED (Hebrew for Grace - "undue favor") appears 251 times in the Tanak
Eleos (Greek for Grace) appears only 50 times in the New Testament.

...you have also found grace in my sight.... ...for you have found grace in my sight... (Ex. 33:12, 17)

...and now I have found grace in your sight... (Judges 6:17)

The people... found grace in the wilderness... (Jer. 31:2)

For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his grace (CHESED) toward those who fear him. (Psalm 103:11)

Oh let those who fear YHWH say, "His grace (CHESED) is everlasting. (Psalm 118:4)

By grace (CHESED) and truth iniquity is atoned for, and by the fear of YHWH one keeps away from evil. (Proverbs 16:6)
