Exodus 32:9 — Verso Éxodo 32:9. Un pueblo de dura cerviz. Probablemente una alusión al buey de dura cerviz, el objeto de su adoración.

Exodus 7:10 — Verse Exodus 7:10. It became a serpent. — תנין tannin. What kind of a serpent is here intended, learned men are not agreed. From the manner in which the original word is used in Psalms 74:13; Isaiah 27:1; Isaiah 51:9; Job 7:12; some very large creature, either aquatic or amphibious, is probably meant; some have thought that the crocodile, a well-known Egyptian animal, is here intended. In Exodus 4:3 it is said that this rod was changed into a serpent, but the original

Job 9:34 — Verse Job 9:34. Let him take his rod away — In the Masoretic Bibles, the word שבטו shibto, his rod, is written with a large ט teth, as above; and as the letter in numerals stands for 9, the Masora says the word was thus written to show the nine calamities

Isaiah 17:9 — Verse Isaiah 17:9. As a forsaken bough, and an uppermost branch - "the Hivites and the Amorites"] החרש והאמיר hachoresh vehaamir. No one has ever yet been able to make any tolerable sense of these words. The translation of the Septuagint has happily preserved what seems

Isaiah 17:9 — Versículo Isaías 17:9 . Como una rama abandonada, y una rama superior - "los heveos y los amorreos". החרש והאמיר hachoresh vehaamir . Nadie ha sido capaz de dar un sentido tolerable a estas palabras. La traducción de la Septuaginta ha preservado felizmente lo que parece

Isaiah 5:9 — Verse Isaiah 5:9. In mine ears. - "To mine ear"] The sentence in the Hebrew text seems to be imperfect in this place; as likewise in Isaiah 22:14, where the very same sense seems to be required as here. See the note there; and compare 1 Samuel 9:15. In this place the

Isaiah 59:16 — Verse Isaiah 59:16. And wondered that there was no intercessor — This and the following verses some of the most eminent rabbins understand as spoken of the Messiah. Kimchi says that Rabbi Joshua ben Levi proposes this objection: "It is written, 'Behold, he will

Zechariah 9:14 — Verse Zechariah 9:14. The Lord shall be seen over them — Shadowing and refreshing them, as the cloud did the camp in the wilderness.His arrow shall go forth as the lightning — They shall be conquered in a way that will show that God fights for his followers.

Zechariah 9:14 — Versículo Zacarías 9:14 . El Señor será visto sobre ellos. Dándoles sombra y refrescándolos, como la nube hizo el campamento en el desierto. Su flecha saldrá como el relámpago. Serán conquistados de una manera que demostrará que Dios lucha por sus seguidores. La descripción

Zechariah 9:9 — Verse Zechariah 9:9. Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion — See this prophecy explained on Matthew 21:5.Behold, thy King cometh — Not Zerubbabel, for he was never king; nor have they had a king, except Jesus the Christ, from the days of Zedekiah to the present

Matthew 9:1 — CHAPTER IX. Christ heals a paralytic person at Capernaum, 1-8. Calls Matthew, 9-10. Eats with publicans and sinners, at which the Pharisees are offended, and he vindicates his conduct, 11, 12. The disciples of John come to him and inquire about fasting, 14-17. A ruler requests him to heal his daughter, 18, 19. On his road to the

John 13:5 — but this is not likely: the verb αρχεσθαι in the sacred writings, signifies, not only to commence, but to finish an act, Acts 1:1; and in the Septuagint, Genesis 2:3. There is every reason to believe that he washed the feet of all the twelve. John 13:9; John 13:9.

John 14:6 — directs in the way: - the LIFE that animates all those who seek and serve him, and which is to be enjoyed eternally at the end of the way. Christ is the WAY: 1. By his doctrine, John 6:68. 2. By his example, 1 Peter 2:21. 3. By his sacrifice, Hebrews 9:8-9. 4. By his Spirit, John 16:13. He is the TRUTH: 1. In opposition to all false religions. 2. To the Mosaic law, which was only the shadow, not the truth or substance, of the good things which were to come. And 3. In respect to all the promises

John 21:14 — Verso Juan 21:14. Esta es la tercera vez... Es decir, esta fue la tercera vez que apareció a los apóstoles, cuando todos o la mayoría estaban juntos. Se apareció a diez de ellos, Juan 20:19; de nuevo a once de ellos, Juan 20:26; y en este momento a siete de ellos, Juan 21:2. Pero, cuando se cotejan los otros evangelistas, encontraremos que esta era la septima vez en el que se había manifestado después de resucitar de entre los muertos. 1°.

Acts 2:2 — rarefaction of the atmosphere in that place, through the sudden passage of the electrical fluid; and the wind would follow the direction of the fire. There is a good deal of similarity between this account and that of the appearance of God to Elijah, 1 Kings 19:11-12, where the strong wind, the earthquake, and the fire, were harbingers of the Almighty's presence, and prepared the heart of Elijah to hear the small still voice; so, this sound, and the mighty rushing wind, prepared the apostles to receive the

Acts 9:10 — Verse Acts 9:10. A certain disciple - named Ananias — A general opinion has prevailed in the Greek Church that this Ananias was one of the seventy-two disciples, and that he was martyred; and they celebrate his martyrdom on the first of October. It has been

Romans 15:3 — Verse Romans 15:3. For even Christ pleased not himself — Christ never acted as one who sought his own ease or profit; he not only bore with the weakness, but with the insults, of his creatures; as it is written in Psalms 69:9: The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me-I not only bore their insults, but bore the punishment due to them for their vicious and abominable conduct. That this Psalm refers to the Messiah and his sufferings for mankind is evident, not

1 Corinthians 9:9 — Verse 1 Corinthians 9:9. Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox — See this largely explained in Clarke's note on "Deuteronomy 25:4".Doth God take care for oxen? — This question is to be understood thus: Is it likely that God should be solicitous for the comfort
