Fascinating, isn’t it, Nelson—how so many verses that so many of us have read for years (or most of our lives in some cases) and believed to be a part of the Scriptures were, apparently, later additions and not in the original texts? Regarding the phrase “without cause,” it’s only a guess, but maybe, rather than that it shouldn’t have been included in those Psalms, instead it was added to the verse in Matthew because it was in the verses in Psalms in the first place. And maybe the same thing applies to the phrase “under the earth” in those verses from Revelation—maybe it was later added to them due to its original presence in the Philippians verse or possibly some verses from the Old Testament. Just a thought.
Sincerely,
Randy

Nelson,

I don't know if there is a "spurious passages" list of OT verses, but I don't see why "without cause" shouldn't be in the psalms you listed. Jesus is not quoting those psalms in Matt. 5:22. 

Nelson Boils:
I've heard the argument-How can one be angry at a brother "without a cause?"

So I thought if that is the case,then I could apply the same arguments to those Psalms.On Psalms 35:7,I could also say how can "they have hidden a net" "without a cause?"There has to be a cause aint it?

Nothing big though,something I was just wondering!

Nelson Boils:
Is there a scripture that shows how Jesus prayed for his enemies?To those who were persecuting him?

Nathan:

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.
