Nehemiah 8:9 — Nehemías, que es el Tirshatha - Por lo tanto, Nehemías se ha llamado a sí mismo פחה pechâh Nehemías 5:14, Nehemías 5:18, que es la palabra común para" gobernador ". Ahora, por primera vez, se le llama "Tirshatha" (ver nota Esdras 2:63). La gente lloró ... - Porque la Ley trajo vívidamente ante ellos sus pecados de omisión y comisión. En Nehemías 8:1 no se les prohibió a los judíos lamentar sus pecados, pero solo se les prohibió estropear una ocasión festiva con la expresión de su dolor.
Job 9:5 — exhibitions of his power and greatness. The “removal of the mountains” here denotes the changes which occur in earthquakes and other violent convulsions of nature. This illustration of the power of God is often referred to in the Scriptures; compare Jdg 5:5; 1 Kings 19:11; Psalms 65:6; Psalms 114:4; Psalms 144:5; Isaiah 40:12; Jeremiah 4:24.And they know not - This is evidently a Hebraism, meaning suddenly, or unexpectedly. He does it, as it were, before they are aware of it. A similar expression occurs
Job 9:5 — exhibiciones de su poder y grandeza. La "eliminación de las montañas" aquí denota los cambios que ocurren en los terremotos y otras convulsiones violentas de la naturaleza. Esta ilustración del poder de Dios a menudo se menciona en las Escrituras; compare Jue 5: 5 ; 1 Reyes 19:11; Salmo 65:6; Salmo 114:4; Salmo 144:5; Isaías 40:12; Jeremias 4:24. Y ellos no saben - Esto es evidentemente un hebraísmo, lo que significa repentina o inesperadamente. Lo hace, por así decirlo, antes de que se den cuenta. Una
Psalms 109:14 — iniquity of his fathers - Of his ancestors.Be remembered with the Lord - Or, by the Lord. The doctrine of the Bible is, that God “visits the iniquities of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate” him Exodus 20:5; the matter of fact is that children and children’s children often suffer from the errors, the crimes, and the follies of their parents, as in the case of intemperance, murder, and treason (compare the notes at Romans 5:12 ff); and the prayer here is,
Psalms 147:17 — Lanza su hielo como bocados - La palabra traducida bocados significa propiamente un poco, una migaja, como pan, Génesis 18:5; Jueces 19:5. La alusión aquí parece ser granizar, que Dios envía a la tierra tan fácilmente como uno esparce migajas de pan de la mano. ¿Quién puede soportar su resfriado? - O, granizo. La palabra es la misma, excepto señalando, ya que la palabra
Psalms 16:8 — have endeavored always to feel that, his eye was upon me. This, too, is one of the certain characteristics of piety, that we always feel that we are in the presence of God, and that we always act as if his eye were upon us. Compare the notes at Acts 2:25.Because he is at my right hand - The right hand was regarded as the post of honor and dignity, but it is also mentioned as a position of defense or protection. To have one at our right hand is to have one near us who can defend us. Thus, in Psalms 109:31,
Isaiah 1:20 — personas perseveran en rebelarse contra Dios, serán destruidas. La palabra devorar se aplica a la espada, como si fuera insaciable por la destrucción. Cualquier cosa que destruya se puede decir figurativamente que devora; ver las notas en Isaías 34:5; compare Isaías 5:24; Lamentaciones 2:3; Ezequiel 15:4; Joel 2:3; Apocalipsis 11:5 - donde se dice que el fuego devora. La boca del Señor - Yahweh mismo. Esto había sido dicho por la boca del Señor, y registrado, Levítico 26:33: Y te esparciré
Isaiah 45:16 — They shall be ashamed and confounded - That is, they shall find all their hopes fail, and shall be suffused with shame that they were ever so senseless as to trust in blocks of wood and stone (see the notes at Isaiah 1:29; Isaiah 20:5; Isaiah 30:5; Isaiah 43:17).They shall go to confusion - They shall all retire in shame and disgrace. That is, when they have gone to supplicate their idols, they shall find them unable to render them any aid, and they shall retire with shame.
Isaiah 5:22 — Wo unto them that are mighty ... - This is the sixth specification of crime. He had already denounced the intemperate in Isaiah 5:11. But probably this was a prevailing sin. Perhaps there was no evidence of reform; and it was needful to “repeat” the admonition, in order that people might be brought to regard it. The prophet repeats a similar denunciation in Isaiah 56:12.Mighty
Ezekiel 41:1 — El Templo - Correctamente el lugar santo (a), a diferencia del pórtico (G) y el lugar santísimo (B) 1 Reyes 6:17; 1 Reyes 7:5. Los postes - El muro exterior del templo tenía seis codos de grosor Ezequiel 41:5. Los postes orientales de este muro que formaban parte del frente del templo estaban adornados con pilares, seis codos a cada lado. Midió el ancho - Este ancho fue de veinte codos Ezequiel 41:2. Omita "lo que fue". "Tabernáculo" es aquí el interior (la parte cubierta) del templo.
Daniel 5:16 — And I have heard of thee ... - Daniel 5:11.Canst make interpretations - Margin, “interpret.” Chaldee, “interpret interpretations.” The meaning is, that he was skilled in interpreting or explaining dreams, omens, etc.And dissolve doubts - See the notes at Daniel 5:12.Now, if thou canst read
Zechariah 1:9 — para ver qué hablará en mí". Es el título característico de un ángel asistente, que fue el expositor de Dios de las visiones de Zacarías ( Zacarías 1:13, Zacarías 1:19, ( Zacarías 2:2 hebreo) Zacarías 2:3; (7) Zacarías 4:1, Zacarías 4:4; Zacarías 5:5, Zacarías 5:1; Zacarías 6:4). Dionisio: "Por su ministerio, Dios me mostró las cosas por venir, en el sentido de que ese ángel se formó en el espíritu y el poder imaginativo de los fantasmas de Zacarías o las imágenes de las cosas que le fueron
Zechariah 2:13 — Silencio - Literalmente, "silencia toda carne, delante del Señor" (ver en Habacuc 2:2, p. 207); hombre en su debilidad Génesis 6:3; 2 Crónicas 32:8; Job 10:4; Salmo 56:4; Salmo 78:39; Isaías 31:3; Jeremias 17:5, "carne y sangre" en el lenguaje del Nuevo Testamento Mateo 16:17; 1 Corintios 15:5; Gálatas 1:16, ante Dios su Hacedor. "Toda carne", toda la raza humana Génesis 6:12; Salmo 65:3; Salmo 145:21; Isaías
Matthew 24:11 — And many false prophets - Many men pretending to be prophets or foretellers of future events. This refers not to the false “Messiahs” of which he had spoken Matthew 24:5, but to prophets who should appear during the siege of the city. Of them Josephus says: “The tyrannical zealots who ruled the city suborned “many false prophets” to declare that aid would be given to the people from heaven. This was done to prevent
Matthew 24:11 — Y muchos falsos profetas - Muchos hombres que fingen ser profetas o predictores de eventos futuros. Esto no se refiere a los falsos "Mesías" de los que había hablado Mateo 24:5, sino a los profetas que deberían aparecer durante el asedio de la ciudad. De ellos Josefo dice: "Los fanáticos tiránicos que gobernaron la ciudad sobornaron a" muchos falsos profetas "para declarar que se brindaría ayuda a la gente del cielo. Esto
Mark 16:18 — sea necesario para establecer una religión, manejarán reptiles venenosos sin lesiones, lo que demuestra que Dios estaba con ellos para mantenerlos ellos de daño. Esto se cumplió literalmente cuando Paul le quitó la víbora de la mano. Ver Hechos 28:5. Cualquier cosa mortal - Cualquier veneno que generalmente causa la muerte. No los lastimará - Hay una promesa similar en Isaías 43:2. Pondrán las manos sobre los enfermos ... - Vea ejemplos de esto en los Hechos de los Apóstoles, Hechos 3:6;
Joshua 7:1 — Committed a trespass - (compare Leviticus 5:15 note), “acted treacherously and committed a breach of faith.” This suitably describes the sin of Achan, who had purloined and hidden away that which had been dedicated to God by the ban Joshua 6:19.The “trespass” was the act of one man, yet is imputed
1 Timothy 5:3 — widows - The particular attention and respect which are enjoined here, seem to refer to the class of widows who were supported by the church, and who were entrusted with the performance of certain duties toward the other female members, see 1 Timothy 5:9. It is to be remembered that the contact of the sexes was much more circumscribed in Oriental countries than it is among us; that access to the female members of the church would be much less free than it is now, and that consequently there might
Revelation 7:12 — assent to it. It may be uttered, as expressing this, either in the beginning or end of a sentence. Thus, wills are commonly commenced, “In the name of God, Amen.”Blessing, and glory, ... - Substantially the same ascription of praise occurs in Revelation 5:12. See the notes on that verse. The general idea is, that the highest kind of praise is to be ascribed to God; everything excellent in character is to be attributed to him; every blessing which is received is to be traced to him. The order of the words
Revelation 7:12 — como expresando esto, ya sea al principio o al final de una oración. Por lo tanto, las voluntades se comienzan comúnmente, "En el nombre de Dios, Amén". Bendición y gloria, ... - Sustancialmente la misma atribución de alabanza ocurre en Apocalipsis 5:12. Ver las notas en ese verso. La idea general es que el mayor tipo de alabanza es atribuirle a Dios; todo lo excelente en carácter debe ser atribuido a él; cada bendición que se recibe debe ser rastreada hasta él. El orden de las palabras cambia,
