Bible Commentaries

Exodus 13:2 — Sanctify unto me all the firstborn, whatsoever openeth the womb among the children of Israel, [both] of man and of beast: it [is] mine. It is mine. — By right of redemption also. He that is saved is "not his own"; 1 Corinthians 6:19 but his that saved him. Servati sumus ut serviamus. Luke 1:74 God hath sworn we shall do so, Luke 1:73 or else never come to his kingdom. Psalms 95:11

1 Kings 6:29 — Y talló todas las paredes de la casa alrededor con figuras talladas de querubines y palmeras y flores abiertas, por dentro y por fuera. Ver. 29. Y talló todas las paredes. ] Ver 1 Reyes 6:25 . 1 Reyes 6:25 . De querubines y palmeras y flores abiertas. ] Para notar, dice uno, la protección de la Iglesia de Cristo por el ministerio de los ángeles - aunque exteriormente invisible - y el pacífico victorioso floreciendo bajo el mismo. Hebreos 1:14

1 Kings 9:11 — 1 Reyes 9:11 ([Ahora] Hiram, rey de Tiro, había provisto a Salomón de cedros y abetos, y de oro, conforme a todo lo que deseaba,) que entonces el rey Salomón le dio a Hiram veinte ciudades en la tierra de Galilea. Ver. 11. En la tierra de Galilea. ] Llamada Galilea de los gentiles, Isa 9: 1 porque habitaron por ellos, Jueces 1: 31-32 hasta que Salomón los despojó, y así dispuso de su país.

Psalms 119:138 — Thy testimonies [that] thou hast commanded [are] righteous and very faithful. Thy testimonies which thou hast commanded — i.e. The gospel, as Isaiah 8:20 . And the commandment thereof to hear Christ, Matthew 17:5 , and to believe in his name, 1 John 3:23 ; this is a faithful and true saying, 1 Timothy 1:15 , not avengelaion, as the Jews blasphemously call it, or fabula de Christo, a fable about Christ, as that blackmouthed pope.

Psalms 119:138 — Tus testimonios [que] has ordenado [son] justos y muy fieles. Ver. 138. Tus testimonios que has mandado ] ie El evangelio, como Isaías 8:20 . Y su mandamiento de escuchar a Cristo, Mateo 17:5 , y creer en su nombre, 1 Juan 3:23 ; este es un dicho fiel y verdadero, 1 Timoteo 1:15 , no avengelaion, como los judíos lo llaman blasfemamente, o fabula de Christo, una fábula sobre Cristo, como ese papa negruzco.

Psalms 78:60 — So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent [which] he placed among men; So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh — Whither it had been brought from Gilgal, and where it had rested a long while, but was forsaken of God when once idolized, 1 Samuel 4:3-5 The tent which he placed among men. — Which was a very great condescension, Isaiah 66:1 . Confer John 1:14 Proverbs 8:31 .

Psalms 78:60 — De modo que abandonó el tabernáculo de Silo, la tienda [que] puso entre los hombres; Ver. 60. De modo que abandonó el tabernáculo de Silo ] donde había sido traído de Gilgal, y donde había reposado por mucho tiempo, pero fue abandonado por Dios cuando una vez idolatrado, 1 Samuel 4:3,5 La tienda que puso entre los hombres. ] Lo cual fue una gran condescendencia, Isaías 66:1 . Conferir Juan 1:14 Proverbios 8:31 .

Leviticus 14:6 — As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird [that was] killed over the running water: That was killed over the running water. — Pointing at Christ, who "came not by water only, but by water and blood." 1 John 5:6 See Trapp on " 1 John 5:6 " See Trapp on " 1 Corinthians 6:11 "

Jeremiah 27:19 — For thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the residue of the vessels that remain in this city, Concerning the sea, and concerning the pillars, … — Of these, see 1 Kings 7:15 ; 1 Kings 7:23 ; 1 Kings 7:27 . And concerning the residue of the vessels. — All the goodly plate, whether sacred or profane, that the moderation of the conqueror had left in the city. Diod.

Ezekiel 44:9 — Thus saith the Lord GOD; No stranger, uncircumcised in heart, nor uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of any stranger that [is] among the children of Israel.

Such as were the scribes and Pharisees, the Arian bishops, the Popish priests, the cleri (ut vocant) - dehonestamenta among us, till cast out.

Haggai 2:5 — it is a gracious promise that the whole Trinity will be with them. The particle eth seemeth put for gnayim; and the article he is emphatic, showing that by Word is meant the second person, often called the Word both in the Old Testament, 2 Samuel 7:21 cf. 1 Chronicles 17:19 , and in the New, Luke 1:1-80: 2 John 1:1 1 John 5:7 . The Chaldee seemeth to favour this interpretation, for he rendereth it, My word shall be your help. Jerome, Albertus, Nyssen, and Haymo dissent not. Haggai, and other prophets

Haggai 2:5 — Trinidad estará con ellos. La partícula eth parece estar puesta para gnayim; y el artículo que es contundente, mostrando que por la palabra que se quiere decir la segunda persona, a menudo llamada la Palabra tanto en el Antiguo Testamento, 2 Samuel 7:21 cf. 1 Crónicas 17:19 , y en el Nuevo, Lucas 1:1,80 : 2 Juan 1:1 1 Juan 5:7 .

Matthew 20:28 — Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many. And to give his life a ransom — A redemptory, a valuable rate, λυτρον , for it was the blood of God wherewith the Church was purchased, Acts 20:28 ; silver and gold could not do it, 1 Peter 1:18-19 ; nor anything else but that ransom given by Christ, αντιλυτρον , 1 Timothy 2:6 .

Acts 13:47 — For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying , I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth. I have set thee — This, spoken at first to Christ, is here applied to his messengers and ministers, who are labourers together with Christ, 1 Corinthians 3:9 , and are in Scripture called both lights and saviours, Matthew 5:14 ; Obadiah 1:21 1 Timothy 4:16 .

Acts 16:9 — And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us. Into Macedonia and help us — The ministers are those by whom God helpeth his perishing people, and pulleth them out of the devil’s danger. Hence they are called saviours, Obadiah 1:21 1 Timothy 4:16 ; redeemers, Job 33:24 ; Job 33:28 ; co-workers with Christ, 2 Corinthians 6:1 .

1 Corinthians 11:5 — Pero toda mujer que ora o profetiza con la cabeza descubierta, deshonra su cabeza, porque es una como si estuviera rapada. Ver. 5. Orar o profetizar ] Es decir, unirse al hombre que ora o profetiza, y acompañarlo en su corazón. Así, el rey y todo Israel con él ofrecieron sacrificios ante el Señor, 1 Reyes 8:62 . Y así los ignorantes dicen Amén, 1 Corintios 14:16 . Ver Trapp en " Rom 16: 1 "

Ephesians 5:6 — Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

Against these he here cautioneth.

1 Samuel 27:8 — And David and his men went up, and invaded the Geshurites, and the Gezrites, and the Amalekites: for those [nations were] of old the inhabitants of the land, as thou goest to Shur, even unto the land of Egypt. And the Gezrites. — Otherwise called Girgashites, as some hold. And the Amalekites. — Whom Saul should have utterly rooted out, 1 Samuel 15:3 ; 1 Samuel 15:7 ; 1 Samuel 15:9 but did not. Quod defertur, non aufertur.

1 Samuel 27:8 — Y David y sus hombres subieron e invadieron Gesuritas, Gezritas y Amalecitas; porque aquellas [naciones] eran desde la antigüedad los habitantes de la tierra, cuando vas a Shur, hasta la tierra de Egipto. Ver. 8. Y los Gezrites. ] También llamados gergeseos, como algunos sostienen. Y los amalecitas. ] A quien Saúl debería haber desarraigado por completo, 1 Samuel 15: 3 ; 1 Samuel 15:7 ; 1 de Samuel 15: 9 pero no lo hizo. Quod defertur, non aufertur.

1 Samuel 9:15 — Now the LORD had told Samuel in his ear a day before Saul came, saying, The Lord had told Samuel in his ear. — By the instinct of his Spirit: Samuel was his favourite, and had communication of his secrets. Every saint hath likewise "the mind of Christ" 1 Corinthians 2:16 "revealed unto him by his Spirit," 1 Corinthians 2:10 even such things as "eye hath not seen, nor ear heard." 1 Corinthians 2:9
