Art/Literary - Religion / Commentary on Proverbs
English term or phrase: transactions
Pride is a common and dangerous iniquity, and our kind instructor (Solomon) multiplies his cautions against it. The danger of pride is plain from every history of the great ***transactions*** that have come to pass in heaven and in earth. The prophets describe the destructive consequences of this sin [...] The history of the evangelists shows us what amazing humiliation was necessary to expiate the guilt contracted by the pride of man. And the tendency of the preaching and writings of the apostles was to cast down every high imagination of men...

Creo que tiene este sentido:

Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary
transaction.
2 b : a communicative action or activity involving two parties or things that reciprocally affect or influence each other


En este mismo sentido, también aparece en este otro contexto:

God never condemns the righteous, but it is his peculiar glory to justify the ungodly, through the execution of the curse upon his righteous Son. In each of these divine ***transactions*** the injustice condemned in our text is discovered to be detestable to God, for righteousness shines with more awful splendor in the infliction of punishment upon our Surety, and in our absolution from guilt, than in the flames of the lake of fire and brimstone.

hechos/intervenciones


Explanation:
los hechos importantes/significativos/(o el adjetivo que te parezca más apropiado) que han ocurrido tanto en el cielo como en la tierra.

En la segunda parte: "hechos divinos /actos divinos"

Se me ocurre "Hechos", dado que hay un capítulo en la Biblia que se llama así: "Hechos de los Apóstoles".

El uso de "intervención" es también muy común en lenguaje bíblico.

¿Te sirve Ana?
