2 Kings 13:1-25 el general Ben-adad; al resistir las sucesivas invasiones de ellos el ejército israelita fué tristemente reducido y debilitado. En lo peor de su miseria, clamó Joacaz, y fué oído, no por causa de él mismo (Salmo 66:18; Proverbios 1:28; Proverbios 15:8), sino por causa del pacto antiguo con los patriarcas (v. 23).

2 Kings 15:1-38 medio de este tributo, en confederado, para la seguridad de su dominio usurpado; lo que el profeta Oseas, menos interesado en el hecho histórico que en la disposición manifestada en ello, bien podría censurar como una ida de Efraim a los asirios ( Oseas 5:13; Oseas 7:1; Oseas 8:9) y una concertación de un pacto con Assur (cap. 12:1). (Keil). mil talentos de plata—362.200 libras esterlinas. Este tributo que Manahem levantó por medio de un impuesto sobre los grandes de Israel, sobornó a Pul para que
2 Kings 3:1-27 EL REINADO MALO DE JORAM SOBRE ISRAEL.
1. Joram hijo de Achab comenzó a reinar en Samaria sobre Israel el año dieciocho de Josaphat—(cf. 1 Reyes 22:52). Concuerda lo dicho en estos dos pasajes, si suponemos que Ococías, habiendo reinado durante el año diecisiete y la mayor parte del dieciocho de Josafat, fué sucedido por su hermano Joram o Jehoram, a fines del año dieciocho; o que Ococías, habiendo
2 Chronicles 30:1-27 Dios había dado a sus antepasados por medio de Moisés. las reliquias que os han quedado de la mano de los reyes de Asiria—Esto da a entender que ya se habían hecho varias expediciones contra Israel de parte de los invasores asirios por Pul ( 2 Reyes 15:19), pero nadie había sido llevado cautivo; en un período posterior, parece que muchos de entre las tribus al este del Jordán ( 1 Crónicas 5:26), y más tarde de las tribus en el norte de Israel ( 2 Reyes 15:20), fueron llevados al exilio por Thiglath-pilneser.
Leviticus 13:47 47-59. The garment . . . that the .
. . leprosy is in—It is well known that infectious diseases,
such as scarlet fever, measles, the plague, are latently imbibed and
carried by the clothes. But the language of this passage clearly
indicates a disease to

Isaiah 20:1-6 CONTINUACION DEL ASUNTO DEL CAP. 19, PERO EN UNA FECHA POSTERIOR. CAUTIVIDAD DE EGIPTO Y ETIOPIA—Durante el reinado de Sargón (722-715 A. de C.), sucesor de Salmanasar, se efectuó una invasión de Egipto por los asirios. Aquí se predice el éxito de la misma; de ahí que se amoneste a cierto partido de entre los judíos, a causa de su loca “esperanza” de ayuda de parte de Egipto y Etiopía.
Isaiah 45:1-25 la acción; la desceñidura era indicio de debilidad ( Job 38:3; Job 12:21); “debilitar la fuerza del poderoso” (Margen de la Versión Inglesa), “aflojar el cinturón del fuerte”. “Desatáronse las ceñiduras de sus lomos”; esto es, de Belsasar ( Daniel 5:6). Esto sucedió durante el sitio puesto por Ciro, a la vista de la misteriosa escritura en las paredes del palacio. El que hubiese sido tomado de sorpresa, desapercibido, se predice aquí abrir.. puertas—Durante la francachela de Babilonia, la noche

thirtieth year—that is,
counting from the beginning of the reign of Nabopolassar, father of
Nebuchadnezzar, the era of the Babylonian empire, 625 B.C.,
which epoch coincides with the eighteenth year of Josiah, that in
which the book of the law was found, and the consequent reformation
began [SCALIGER]; or the
thirtieth year of Ezekiel's life. As the Lord was about to be a
"little sanctuary" (Esther
Ezekiel 38 overview aggregate buried in the hundred eighty
working days of the seven months would be three hundred sixty
millions of corpses! Then the pestilential vapors from such masses of
victims before they were all buried! What Israelite could live in
such an atmosphere? (5) The scene of the Lord's controversy here is
different from that in Isaiah 34:6,
Edom, which creates a discrepancy. (But probably a different judgment
is alluded to). (6) The gross carnality of the representation of
God's dealings with His adversaries
Matthew 13:56 56. And his sisters, are they not
all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things? An
exceedingly difficult question here arises—What were these
"brethren" and "sisters" to Jesus? Were they,
First, His full brothers and sisters? or, Secondly,
Were
Matthew 16:26 is a man profited, if
he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul—or forfeit
his own soul?
or what shall a man give in
exchange for his soul?—Instead of these weighty words, which we
find in Mark 8:36 also, it is
thus expressed in Luke 9:25: "If
he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away," or
better, "If he gain the whole world, and destroy or forfeit
himself." How awful is the stake as here set forth! If a man
makes the present world—in its various forms of riches, honors,
pleasures,

scattered in the manner here described—"among all the
nations," "unto the utmost parts of heaven" ( :-). When God recalled them from that bondage, all the
Israelites were not brought back. They were not multiplied above
their fathers (Deuteronomy 30:5), nor
were their hearts and those of their children circumcised to love the
Lord (Deuteronomy 30:6). It is not,
therefore, of the Babylonish captivity that Moses was speaking in
this passage; it must be of the dispersed state to which they have
been
John 10:35 35, 36. If he called them gods unto
whom the word of God came . . . Say ye of him whom the Father hath
sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest—The whole
force of this reasoning, which has been but in part seized by the
commentators, lies in
John 15:1-27 CONTINUACION DEL MISMO DISCURSO DE SOBREMESA.

IRENÆUS, according to
