Luke i. 17.TO HEAR, is often used for to Obey: Thou hast not heard my voice; who wouldst not obey me. Why hearest thou what they 1 Sam. xxiv. 10. Gen. xvi. 5.say against David? Why believest thou my enemies? The Lord shall hear between thee and me: he shall be witness to my innocence, and the injustice that thou doest me. To Hear is used likewise for to approve, and for to hearken, to learn, &c.
