Genesis 38:16 — Y volviéndose hacia ella en el camino, le dijo: Te ruego que vengas, déjame entrar a ti; (porque no sabía que era su nuera.) Y ella dijo: ¿Qué me darás para que entres a mí? Ver. 16. Déjame entrar a ti. ] Esto está registrado, (1.) Para cortar el peine de esos judíos orgullosos, que se enorgullecen tanto de su pedigrí y del nombre de Judá. ¿Cómo podían decir: "No nacemos de la fornicación"? Jn 8:41 (2.) Recordarnos que no hay

1 Kings 7:38 — Then made he ten lavers of brass: one laver contained forty baths: [and] every laver was four cubits: [and] upon every one of the ten bases one laver. Then made he ten lavers of brass. — And all to show the filthiness of sin, and the necessity of Christ’s blood, 1 John 1:7 Zechariah 13:1 wherewith the holy priesthood of his chosen must be washed and sanctified in action and affection, before their service can be accepted. Ephesians 5:26

2 Chronicles 16:1 — En el año treinta y seis del reinado de Asa, Baasa rey de Israel subió contra Judá y edificó Ramá, con la intención de que no dejara salir ni entrar a nadie a Asa rey de Judá. Ver. 1. En el sexagésimo trigésimo año. ] Ver 2 Crónicas 15:19 . Del reinado de Asa. ] O, en el reinado de Asa. Baasa rey de Israel. ] De los cuales, véase 1 Reyes 15:27 . Subió contra Judá. ] Ver 1 Reyes 15:17 , & c.

Esther 9:20 — before hinted. And sent letters unto all the Jews … both nigh and far — Propinquis et longinquis, near and far, that they might all agree together about the time and manner of praising God; and so sing the great Hallelujah. See 2 Corinthians 1:11 2 Chronicles 20:26-28 Psalms 124:1-2 ; Psalms 126:1 Psalms 136:1-26 , penned for a recorded public form, to praise God among the multitude, Psalms 109:30 , and in the great congregation, Psalms 22:22 ; Psalms 22:25 . David would go into the presses

Proverbs 12:22 — Lying lips [are] abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly [are] his delight. Lying lips are abomination to the Lord. — Who hath therefore threatened to "cut them off," Psalms 12:3 and to broil them on "coals of juniper," Psalms 120:4 which burn sweetly, fiercely, lastingly; and to make them eat their false words, as Master Lewes of Manchester made the summoner that came to cite his wife eat the citation, by setting

Jeremiah 15:1 — Entonces el SEÑOR me dijo: Aunque Moisés y Samuel estuvieran delante de mí, mi mente no podría estar hacia este pueblo; échalos fuera de mi vista, y déjelos salir. Ver. 1. Entonces me dijo el Señor. ] En respuesta a mi oración, respondió: Bien has orado, sed stat sententia, estoy listo, soy inexorable. Aunque Moisés. ] El canciller de los cielos, como se le llama; quien no sólo "gobernó con Dios", sino que también lo

Ezekiel 41:1 — Después me llevó al templo y midió los postes, de seis codos de ancho por un lado y seis codos de ancho por el otro lado, que era la anchura del tabernáculo. Ver. 1. Después. ] Este capítulo no es menos oscuro y difícil que el anterior, lo que hizo que Jerome estuviera listo para desistir y dejar de comentar, pero que pensó que era mejor decir algo que nada, y se le hizo saber y decir que la mayor parte de esos

Ezekiel 41:22 — the length thereof, and the walls thereof, [were] of wood: and he said unto me, This [is] the table that [is] before the LORD. The altar, — scil., That for incense, whereof see Exodus 30:6-7 , but here of a much larger size. See on Ezekiel 40:1 . This altar of wood and square was a type of Christ (not of the cross, as Vilalpandus doateth), in whom our prayers come before God as incense, and he is the propitiation for our sins. 1 John 2:2 Exodus 30:1 Psalms 141:1-10 : 2 Kings 5:8 The size of

Zechariah 5:11 — And he said unto me, To build it an house in the land of Shinar: and it shall be established, and set there upon her own base. To build it an house in the land of Shinar — That is, of Babylon, Genesis 10:10 ; Genesis 11:2 , where various of the Jews still remained in wilful exile, as loth to leave their houses and gardens, which they had builded and planted there, Jeremiah 29:5 , preferring captivity before liberty, see 1 Chronicles 4:22-23 . Hence,

Zechariah 5:11 — Y me dijo: Para edificarle una casa en la tierra de Sinar; y será establecida y asentada allí sobre su propio fundamento. Ver. 11. Para construirle una casa en la tierra de Sinar ] Es decir, de Babilonia, Génesis 10:10 ; Génesis 11:2 , donde varios de los judíos aún permanecían en el exilio deliberado, como reacios a dejar sus casas y jardines, que habían construido y plantado

John 1:2 — Lo mismo sucedió al principio con Dios. Ver. 2. Lo mismo fue al principio ] En el instante de la creación, como Génesis 1:1 , por lo tanto también antes de la creación, por lo tanto desde la eternidad, Efesios 1: 4; 1 Pedro 1:10 ; Proverbios 8:22,23 . a "El Señor me poseyó" (dice Cristo, allí la Sabiduría esencial de Dios) "al principio de su camino". Arrio corrompió

John 3:13 — And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. And no man hath ascended, … — Objection. Therefore all but Christ are shut out of heaven. Solution. The Church and Jesus make but one Christ, caput et corpus unus Christus, 1 Corinthians 12:12 . He counts not himself full without his members, who are called the "fulness of him that filleth all,"Ephesians 1:23; Ephesians 1:23 .

Romans 15:29 — And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ. In the fulness of the blessing — Christ may use one of less grace to do more good than one of more (for there are diversities of operations, as well as of gifts, 1 Corinthians 12:6 ), but usually he delights to honour those of most sincerity, with most success,1 Corinthians 15:10; 1 Corinthians 15:10 .

Ephesians 1:7 — In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; In whom we have redemption — As captives ransomed at a price. What this price was, see1 Peter 1:19; 1 Peter 1:19 . Should not Christ therefore reap the travails of his soul? Isaiah 53:11-12 The forgiveness of our sins — This David counted his crown, and prized it above his imperial diadem,Psalms 103:3-4; Psalms 103:3-4 .

1 Thessalonians 4:1 — ye would abound more and more. How ye ought to walk — Every good man is a great peripatetic, walks much. Christ also walks; so doth the devil, apostates, heretics, worldlings; but with this difference: Christ walketh in the middle, Revelation 1:13 ; Revelation 2:1 ; the devil to and fro, up and down, Job 1:7 , his motion is circular, and therefore fraudulent, 1 Peter 5:8 . Apostates run retrograde, they stumble at the cross, and fall backward, Heretics run out on the right hand, worldlings

1 Thessalonians 4:17 — shall we ever be with the Lord. Then we which are alive — He speaketh thus of himself as alive at Christ’s coming, because we should daily expect it, and even hasten to it. Shall be caught up together — This is that mystery mentioned 1 Corinthians 15:51 , and not till now made known to the world. See Trapp On " 1 Corinthians 15:51 " In the clouds — As Christ also ascended, Acts 1:9 . These be the wagons and chariots that Christ will send for us, as Joseph sent his

1 Timothy 2:8 — I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting. Pray everywhere — Any place now (be it but a chimney) may make a goodly oratory, John 4:21 . Lifting up holy hands — Better washed than Pilate’s were, rinsed in that blessed fountain of Christ’s blood,Zechariah 13:1; Zechariah 13:1 . Else, God utterly abhors them, Isaiah 1:15-16 . The priests had their laver to wash in,

1 John 3:1 — Mirad cuál amor nos ha dado el Padre, para que seamos llamados hijos de Dios; por tanto, el mundo no nos conoce, porque no le conoció a él. Ver. 1. He aquí de qué manera ] Qualem et quantum, como 2 Pedro 3:11 . Ver Trapp en " Juan 1:12 " Si Jacob tuvo tales dolores y paciencia para convertirse en yerno de Labán, si David consideraba un gran asunto ser yerno del rey, ¿qué es entonces para ser

1 Samuel 14:48 — Y reunió un ejército, derrotó a los amalecitas y libró a Israel de manos de los que los despojaban. Ver. 48. Y reunió una multitud, ] Ver 1 Samuel 14:47 . 1 Samuel 14:47 . Y libró a Israel de las manos. ] Dios puede hacer uso de hombres malvados como instrumentos para defender a su pueblo: "la tierra ayudó a la mujer"; Apocalipsis 12:16 sin embargo, las copas de la ira de Dios se derramaron "sobre la tierra". Apocalipsis 16: 1

2 Samuel 5:16 — And Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphalet. And Elishama. — See 2 Samuel 5:15 . And Eliada. — Called also Beeliada. 1 Chronicles 14:7 And Eliphalet. — My God heareth, my God knoweth, my God delivereth. "My God" was much in David’s mind and mouth when he named these three sons in this sort. The wicked, on the other side, have God neither in their heads, Psalms 10:4 nor hearts, Psalms 14:1 nor words, Psalms 12:4 nor ways. Titus 1:16
