Ezra 1:5 — Chaldeans, and be as the he-goats before the flocks." These nobles arose, being roused and raised by that noble spirit of God, Psalms 51:12 , that kingly spirit, the Chaldee rendereth it; such as was found in Araunah, that famous Jebusite, 2 Samuel 24:23 Zechariah 9:7 ; and is a quickening spirit in every good soul, causing them to make riddance, as Baruch did, Nehemiah 3:20 , and to take long strides toward heaven, as Jacob did toward Padanaram, Genesis 28:5 for, Nescit tarda molimina spiritus sancti
Ezra 1:6 — Proverbios 30:9 , Proverbios 30:9 , puesto a sus turnos. Pobre Agar, cuando el agua se gastó en la botella, arrojó al niño debajo de los arbustos, Génesis 21:15 . Con vasos de plata, con oro, con bienes y con bestias ] Véase la nota sobre Esdras 1:4 . Estas son cosas de las que los hombres no suelen separarse tan fácilmente de los demás hasta que deben hacerlo. Euclio en el comediante se sienta sobre sus montones y tesoros, y no se dejará llevar. ¿Tomará Nabal su pan y su carne y se los dará a
Esther 3:15 — valiant for the truth, and violent for the kingdom. And the decree was given in Shushan the palace — Pependit, saith the Vulgate, it hung up upon the posts to be read by all, the king not shaming to have his privities seen (as the phrase is, Ezra 4:14 ), to traduce himself (as it were) in a public theatre, for a foolish and oppressive prince; neither caring what might be the evil consequents thereof, so that he may satisfy his own lust, and gratity his minion. And the king and Haman sat down to
Ecclesiastes 12:1 — shalt say, I have no pleasure in them; Remember now thy Creator. — Heb., Creators - scil., Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, called by Elihu, Eloa Gnosia, "God my makers," Job 35:10 and by David, the "Makers of Israel." Psalms 149:2 So Isaiah 54:5 , "Thy makers is thine husbands." "Let us make man"; Genesis 1:26 and, Genesis 1:1 Dii creavit. Those three in one, and one in three, made all things; but man he made "fearfully and wonderfully"; Psalms
Ecclesiastes 12:1 — años, cuando digas: No me complazco en ellos; Ver. 1. Recuerda ahora a tu Creador. ] Heb., Creadores - scil., Padre, Hijo y Espíritu Santo, llamado por Eliú, Eloa Gnosia, "Dios mis hacedores", Job 35:10 y por David, los "Hacedores de Israel". Sal 149: 2 De modo que Isaías 54:5 , "Tus hacedores son tus maridos". "Hagamos al hombre"; Gen 1:26 y Gen 1: 1 Dii creavit. Esos tres en uno, y uno en tres, hicieron todas las cosas; pero al hombre lo hizo "de manera asombrosa y maravillosa"; Sal 139: 14
Hosea 1:4 — Y el SEÑOR le dijo: Llama su nombre Jezreel; por un poco [de tiempo], y vengaré la sangre de Jezreel sobre la casa de Jehú, y haré cesar el reino de la casa de Israel. Ver. 4. Llame su nombre Jezreel ] Porque el nombre honorable de Israel es demasiado bueno para este pueblo; llámalos, pues, Jezreel, pueblo dedicado a la dispersión, y a los que yo esparciré a los cuatro vientos del cielo, como el hombre de la semilla esparce
Hosea 2:7 — is the usual practice of the devil and his instruments to bring men into the briars, and there to leave them to shift as they can: thus the Pharisees dealt by Judas; "What is that to us?" say they; "see thou to that," Matthew 27:4: they left him when they had led him to his bane; like as familiars leave their witches, when they have once brought them into fetters. God dealeth not so with any of his, when he is most angry. But as in very faithfulness he afflicts them, that he
Hosea 4:4 — Sin embargo, nadie contienda, ni reprenda a otro, porque tu pueblo es como los que contienden con el sacerdote. Ver. 4. Sin embargo, que nadie se esfuerce ni reprenda a otro ] Que no pierda tanto buen trabajo, y derrame tantas dulces palabras sobre este pueblo; porque se han vuelto inconsejables, incurables, incorregibles. Han rechazado el consejo de Dios dentro o en
Joel 2:17 — pueblo, como lo hicieron Aarón, Samuel, Pablo, etc. Que sus oraciones (especialmente en los ayunos) sean bien regadas con lágrimas (aquellos oradores eficaces, que claman a Dios por misericordia, Salmo 39:12 , como la sangre Salmo 39:12 venganza, Gen 4:16), como las de ellos, Jueces 20:28 ; Jueces 2:5 1 Samuel 7:6 ; y como Ezra, x. 1, y Jeremías, ix. 1; xiii. 17; ¿y por qué? pero por corrupción, en magistrados, ministros, todo tipo; una deserción general, basada en una desolación general. Oh, que
Jonah 3:8 — valentía; dejen que las bestias rugen con fuerza y ​​rasguen las nubes, por así decirlo, con sus clamores; la falta de comida les obligará a hacerlo. Y como Dios puede hablar de tal manera que las bestias brutas lo entiendan, Joe 2:11 Amós 5:8 ; Amo 9: 4 Juan 2:10 ; así pueden ellos, después de una especie, hablar o gemir de tal manera que él pueda entenderlos, Joel 1:20 Os 2:21 Salmo 147:9 : oye a los cuervos jóvenes que claman a él, aunque con un tono ronco y áspero; de donde también tienen su nombre
Zechariah 1:1 — them to set forward the work, Ezra 5:1 , contributing their utmost help thereunto, Zechariah 1:2 . They were also a singular help the one to the other, in the execution of their office. For "two are better than one"; and why, see Ecclesiastes 4:9 . See Trapp on " Ecclesiastes 4:9 " For which cause also Christ sent out first the twelve, and then the seventy, by two and two, Mark 6:7 Luke 10:1 . So Paul and Barnabas were sent abroad; the two faithful witnesses, Revelation 11:8 . Sυν
Zechariah 1:1 — a seguir adelante con la obra, Esdras 5:1 , contribuyendo con su mayor ayuda para ello, Zacarías 1:2 . También fueron una ayuda singular el uno para el otro, en el desempeño de su cargo. Porque "mejor son dos que uno"; y por qué, ver Eclesiastés 4:9 . Ver Trapp en " Ec. 4: 9 " Por lo cual también Cristo envió primero a los doce, y luego a los setenta, de dos en dos, Mar 6: 7 Lucas 10:1 . Entonces Pablo y Bernabé fueron enviados al extranjero; los dos testigos fieles, Apocalipsis 11:8 . Sυν
Malachi 1:10 — and they which wait at the altar" (though but to kindle a fire upon it) "are partakers with the altar? Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live by the gospel," 1 Corinthians 9:18 ; 1 Corinthians 9:14 ; should have, if not tithes, as they had, yet honorary stipends, double honour, 1 Timothy 5:17 , duplex, id est, multiplex (Calvin), as Isaiah 40:1-2 Jeremiah 17:18 . Or, double, comparatively, to that of widows indeed, 1 Timothy 5:3 , which yet was
Malachi 1:4 — these earthen pots will be dashing themselves against the rocks, against those mountains of brass (so God’s immutable decrees are called, Zechariah 6:1 ). Thus Lamech will have the odds of God seventy to seven (so Junius interprets it), Genesis 4:24 . Thus, when God had threatened to root out Ahab and his posterity, he would try that; and to prevent it, took more wives, and so followed the work of generation, that he left seventy sons behind him, 2 Kings 10:1 . Thus Pharaoh (that sturdy rebel)
Malachi 3:5 — witness. Judge and witness both; which in men’s courts cannot be; but God, being infinitely both wise and holy, may be and will be both witness and judge against the workers of iniquity; and when they are (as Adonijah’s guests were, 1 Kings 1:41 ) at the height of their joys and hopes, he confounds all their devices, and lays them open to the scorn of the world, to the anguish of their own guilty hearts and the dint of his own unsupportable displeasure which is such as none can avert or avoid. “
Matthew 4:4 — that advice of Dr Bristow to his agents, to labour still to get heretics out of their weak and false castle of Holy Scriptures into the plain fields of councils and fathers. The Scriptures are our armoury (far beyond that of Solomon, Song of Solomon 4:4 ), whither we must resort and furnish ourselves. One savoury sentence thereof shall do us more service than all the pretty, witty sayings and sentences of fathers and philosophers, or constitutions of councils. Man liveth not by bread alone —
Matthew 5:11 — Διωκειν est more venatorum persequi proedam. Aretius.) The word betokeneth a keen and eager pursuit of any other, whether by law or by the sword, whether by word or deed. For scoffers also are persecutors, as Ishmael, Galatians 4:29 , and for such shall be arraigned, Judges 1:15 . And cruel mockings and scourgings are set together by the author to the Hebrews, as much of a kind, Hebrews 11:36 ; especially when (as it follows in the text) they "shall say all manner of evil
Matthew 5:11 — more venatorum persequi proedam. Aretius.) La palabra denota una persecución entusiasta y entusiasta de cualquier otro, ya sea por ley o por espada, ya sea de palabra o de hecho. Porque los burladores también son perseguidores, como Ismael, Gálatas 4:29 , y por ellos será procesado, Jueces 1:15 . Y el autor pone juntas crueles burlas y azotes a los hebreos, en su mayor parte, Hebreos 11:36 ; especialmente cuando (como sigue en el texto) ellos "dirán toda clase de mal en contra de ustedes", los
Matthew 6:23 — gain from his quarter," Isaiah 56:10-11 . Avidus a non videndo dicitur; et Midas secundum Etymologiam Graecam caecus est. Of this sort were those covetous Pharisees, that devoured widows’ houses; therefore blind, because covetous, Luke 16:14 ; Luke 20:47 , the property of which sin is to besot and infatuate, as it did Judas, who, though he wanted for nothing in our Saviour’s retinue, but was sufficiently provided for, yet for filthy lucre basely sold his Master, and that for thirty
Revelation 6:4 — Y salió otro caballo que era rojo: y el poder se le dio al que estaba sentado al respecto a quitar la paz de la tierra, y que se matasen unos a otros; y se le dio una gran espada. Ver. 4. Eso fue rojo ] Presagiando problemas y tragedias, guerras sangrientas y terribles persecuciones. Los diez primeros fueron tan crueles, que San Jerónimo escribe en una de sus epístolas que por cada día del año se asesinaban 5000, excepto el primero
