Genesis 11:7 "Para que no seamos esparcidos", dicen ellos: "Dispersémoslos por el mundo", dice. Así Dios lo dice con ellos y refuta su insensatez de un punto a otro.
Así se pone en orden de batalla contra los orgullosos, como dice Santiago , αντιτασσεται , Stg 4: 7 y los derriba en el campo llano. Trató con más severidad a David por contar al pueblo que por el asunto de Urías. Convirtió a Nabucodonosor que pastaba entre las bestias, por podar y enorgullecerse de esta Babel. "¿No es esta la gran Babel que yo
Genesis 16:5 sobre ti; he entregado a mi sierva en tu seno; y cuando vio que había concebido, fui despreciado ante sus ojos: el SEÑOR juzgue entre tú y yo.
Ver. 5. Mi mal sea contigo. ] Los mayores malhechores suelen ser los que más se quejan; como Éxodo 2: 13-14, la culpa es siempre exaltada y clamorosa. He aquí verba stomachantis atque imprecantis . O, como algunos piensan más bien, verba implorantis vindictam divinam seque consolantis spe defensionis divinae . Tómalo de la manera que quieras, como persona
Genesis 2:22 lo ordenó; Dios el Hijo lo honró con Su primer milagro; Dios el Espíritu Santo hizo lo mismo, eclipsando a la Virgen desposada. Los papistas y otros que lo deshonran aparecen aquí más como demonios que como teólogos, si se puede juzgar a Pablo; 1Ti 4: 2-3 o Ignacio, quien dice: Si alguno llama al matrimonio contaminación, tiene al diablo habitando en él y hablando por él. C
a Diabolus per costam tanquam per scalam, ad cor Adami ascendit. - Mor , lib. iii. mi. 5. Sic Phoroneus, apud Bruson, l. vii.
Genesis 20:8 disgusto de Dios. Sal 90:11 Cavebis si pavebis . Rom 11:21 Pero los que no tiemblan de oír, serán aplastados de sentimiento, dijo el mártir. d Esta fue una señal de que los israelitas temían a Dios, cuando le creyeron a Dios ya su siervo Moisés. Éxodo 4:31 La mejor forma de prevención es temblar ante los juicios de Dios, mientras ellos penden de las amenazas.
Pero Frecuentes, el comienzo de una calamidad es la seguridad , dice Palmer. Es sólo seguridad, entonces, que nunca es seguro, pero siempre temeroso
Genesis 3:8 sino solo en vasos rotos.
Cristo no vino a curar el sonido, sino a los enfermos del pecado: el Espíritu Santo se derrama solo sobre las almas sedientas que están quemadas y resecas por el sentimiento del pecado y el temor a la ira. Isaías 35:7 ; Isa 44: 3 Así como el camino a Sion era por el Sinaí, así, a menos que deseemos estar seguros carnalmente que consolados profundamente, debemos pasar de Baca a Berajá, al ver nuestro pecado y miseria, a un sentido de la gracia de Dios. y piedad.

Genesis 32:4 Y les mandó, diciendo: Así hablaréis a mi señor Esaú; Tu siervo Jacob dice así: Yo he residido con Labán y me he quedado allí hasta ahora:
Ver. 4. A mi señor Esaú; Tu siervo Jacob, etc. ] Esto no fue bajeza de espíritu, mucho menos una renuncia a su primogenitura y bendición; pero una sumisión necesaria por un tiempo, como la de David a Saúl, 1 Samuel 24: 7 ; 1 de Samuel 24: 9 hasta que se cumpliera
Genesis 4:14 He aquí, me has echado hoy de la faz de la tierra; y de tu rostro me esconderé; y seré un fugitivo y un vagabundo en la tierra; y sucederá que todo el que me hallare me matará.
Ver. 14. De la faz de la tierra. ] Es decir, de esta tierra, este país, la familia de mi padre; que en las siguientes palabras llama el rostro de Dios, el lugar de su culto público, del cual Caín fue justamente excomulgado aquí. Y seguramente la aflicción de
Ezra 1:7 (tomados por Tito y recuperados de Gensericus) en el tesoro público, sino que los restauró.
Que había sacado Nabucodonosor ] Con manos profanas y sacrílegas algunos de estos vasos y utensilios sagrados del Templo los había cortado en pedazos, 2 Reyes 24:13 , y otros se los llevó, 2 Crónicas 36:7 , enteros y enteros.
Esto lo hizo por codicia (que auri sacra fames ) y por desprecio de toda religión (más que por odio a la superstición judía, o para vengar la disputa del pacto de Dios), como por la misma
Haggai 2:8 second temple should be more glorious than the first, since they wanted that wealth wherewith Solomon abounded; God answereth in like sort, as once he did Moses, alleging the slowness of his speech, "Who hath made man’s mouth?" Exodus 4:10-11 , so here, whose is the silver and the gold? Am not I the true proprietor and chief Lord of all? cannot I furnish you out of my great purse, the earth, and the fulness thereof? Psalms 24:1 ( Terra est marsupium Domini ). What is silver and gold
Zechariah 1:2 former, even such a fervour and fierceness of God’s wrath as maketh him ready to kill and cut off, see 2 Kings 6:6 , and note the affinity of that word with this like as he had much ado to forbear killing of Moses, when he met him in the inn, Exodus 4:24 , and as Nebuchadnezzar was not only angry, but very furious, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon, Daniel 2:12 . Now if the wrath of a king be as many messengers of death, Proverbs 16:14 , what shall we think of the foaming and frothing
Zechariah 3:2 arrows of the mighty," that pierce deep, wound deadly; "with coals of juniper," that shall burn fierce in respect of thyself, and sweet in regard of others; for men are wondrous well pleased when such ill members are punished, Psalms 120:3-4 .
Even the Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem — He chose her for his loves; and now loves her for his choice. He loveth her and washeth her with his blood, that he may present her to himself holy and without blemish, Ephesians 5:26-27 . The Persian
Zechariah 8:19 intent, yet of an evil event; for you have made too much ado about them, with neglect of the one thing necessary. And now learn and labour to receive the love of the truth, that ye may be saved, 2 Thessalonians 2:10 , to speak the truth in love, Ephesians 4:15 , to do the truth, 1 John 1:6 ne dicta factis deficientibus ernbescant, lest your lives give your lips the lie. So will God say, "Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he will be your Saviour," Isaiah 63:8 . So shall
Matthew 17:5 solenmity. Non loquendum de Deo sine lumine, was a saying of Pythagoras; God may not be mentioned without a light.
This is my beloved Son, in whom — Here God maketh use of three different passages and places of his own Book, Psalms 2:7 ; Isaiah 42:1 ; Deuteronomy 18:18 , to teach us when we speak, to speak as the oracles of God, inure ourselves to Scriptural language, 1 Peter 4:11 . The voice also which Christ heard from heaven at his baptism, in his first inauguration, is here repeated totidem
Matthew 2:11 laid aside his own glory, wherewith he was glorified with the Father before the world began, and voluntarily abased himself to the shape and state of a poor, feeble, helpless infant, that we might come to the fulness of the age in Christ. Ephesians 4:13 .
With Mary his mother — Without any other assistance or attendance. Joseph haply was at work, or otherwise absent, lest the wise men should mistake him for the true father of the child.
And when they had opened their treasure, they presented
Matthew 2:19 the prayers of Alexander, the good Bishop of Constantinople, and his death was precationis opus, non morbi, work of pray not of death. (Socrat.) So, likely, was Herod’s.
Behold, an angel — Glad of an office to serve the saints, Hebrews 1:14 . They rejoice more in their names of office than of honour: to be called angels, watchmen, Daniel 4:23 …, than principalities; powers, … It was long ere Joseph heard from heaven, but God’s time he knew was the best. And although
Matthew 4:21 asunder the very veins and sinews of the mystical body of Christ, as the apostle intimateth, 1 Corinthians 1:10 ; ( κατηρτισμενοι ), to hinder all true growth in godliness, Ephesians 4:16 , and inward comfort, Philippians 2:1 , to drive away God, who appeared not to Abraham till the difference was made up, Genesis 13:14 , …, and to outdo ourselves ( Praesente Loto, et vigente contentione, Deus non apparuit. Par. in loc.): as
Matthew 4:23 in the earth, the creature by food. Nos non eloquimur magna, sed vivimus, said the ancient Christians. And holy Bradford accounted that hour lost wherein he had not done some good with tongue, pen, or hand. God hath set us our time and our task, Job 14:5-6 . David is said to serve out his time; and John Baptist, to finish his course,Acts 13:25; Acts 13:25 . Up, therefore, and be doing, that ye be not taken with your task undone. Fruitless trees shall be cut down: short shooting loseth many a game.
Matthew 5:41 patience he possessed his own soul, Luke 21:19 ; he became master of himself, which is the only true manhood. So patience had her perfect work in Joseph; therefore he became, as St James hath it, "perfect and entire, wanting nothing," James 1:4 . Julius Caesar, beholding the picture of Alexander in Hercules’ temple at Gades, lamented that he had done no worthy exploit at those years, wherein Alexander had conquered the whole world. Joseph at thirty showed more true virtue, valour, piety,
Matthew 6:28 consider the operation of his hands, Isaiah 5:12 , that is, the wise disposing of his creatures, for our behoof and benefit. A godly ancient being asked by a profane philosopher, Anton. Erem. apud August. de doct. Christ. lib. 1, et Nicop. lib. 8, c. 40. how he could contemplate high things, since he had no books? wisely answered, that he had the whole world for his book, ready open at all times and in all places, and that therein he could read things divine and heavenly. A bee can suck honey out
2 Samuel 12:1 apresuradamente de un sueño profundo y dulce tienden a enfermarse y a pelear con sus mejores amigos, el sabio Nathan, non aperte, sed per ambages, comienza su reprensión, no en términos sencillos, sino con buscando una forma de hablar, como ella dice, 2 Samuel 14:20 ; mediante una alegoría o un apología, primero le saca a David cuál era la ley, y luego lo obliga a pronunciar sentencia de muerte contra sí mismo. a David era un profeta, pero necesitaba que se le enviara un profeta; como un médico a otro; pero
