Esther 7:4 — condition for a queen, especially (which yet was Hecuba’s case and Zenobia’s), yet it would not be grievous to them to sacrifice their liberty to the service of their life: the Gibeonites were glad they might live upon any terms, Joshua 9:24-25 . Masters might slay their bondservants, but that was counted a cruelty, and when one did it at Rome, he was amerced by the censor; many times they were manumitted for their good service, and came to great estates. I had held my tongue — Silence
Esther 9:1 — given over, and to cause a strange turn of things, according to that of the psalmist: God shall send from heaven and save me (when it might seem to some that salvation itself could not save me), he shall send forth his mercy and his truth, Psalms 57:4 , and then what should hinder the Church’s happiness. That the Jews had rule over them that hated them — They domineered over their enemies as so many Sultans, éשׁìèå So true is that of the preacher, "Man
Esther 9:1 — comenzar donde nos hemos rendido y causar un extraño giro en las cosas, según el salmista: Dios enviará desde el cielo y me salvará (cuando a algunos les parezca que la salvación misma no puede salvarme), enviará su misericordia y su verdad, Salmo 57:4 , y luego lo que debería obstaculizar la felicidad de la Iglesia. Que los judíos se enseñorearon de los que los odiaban ] Dominaron a sus enemigos como tantos Sultanes, ישׁלטו Tan cierto es lo del predicador: "El hombre no conoce su tiempo, sino como
Job 1:3 — neighbours, not warring upon any: the horse is a warlike creature, prepared for the day of battle. But Beza noteth, that in that country they had little use of horses, as using camels to bear burdens, and asses to ride on. See Judges 5:10 ; Judges 10:4 . And a very great household — Great store of servants he had about him, and himself was the greatest, according to that of the Greek poet (wherewith Luther was so taken, that he translated it in certain rhythms), Eις εστι
Psalms 17:14 — them, and afterwards a king to vex them, a table to be a snare to them, … By the way observe, that wicked men have a right to earthly things (a man must needs have some right to his portion; what Ananias had was his own while he had it, Acts 5:4 ), and it is a rigour to say, they are usurpers. As when the king gives a traitor his life, he gives him meat and drink that may maintain his life; so it is here; neither shall wicked men be called to account at the last day tbr possessing what they
Proverbs 6:17 — en la oreja, pidiéndole que se fuera con una venganza, etc. f Para evitar todo descontento y malestar así ocasionado, sería de desear que los hombres tuvieran primero corazones humildes, - el apóstol hace de la humildad la mente la primera virtud, Ef 4: 2 como aquí una mirada orgullosa se convierte en el primer vicio, la raíz maestra, - y luego, que entrarían en un pacto, como lo hizo Job, al menos con sus propios ojos; Job 31: 1 un pacto como el que se hizo una vez en una reunión de los fronterizos
Song of Solomon 2:5 — exuberance of spiritual joy in God my Saviour, such as I can hardly stand under. Stay me therefore, saith she to the ministers, those pillars to "support the weak," Galatians 2:10 and to "comfort the feeble minded." 1 Thessalonians 5:14 "Stay me, or sustain me, with flagons, comfort me with apples." Solinus Poly. Hist., cap. 56. tells of some near the river Ganges that live odore pomorum sylvestrium, by the smell Smelling salts are applied to the nostrils of those who faint.
Song of Solomon 2:5 — una exuberancia de gozo espiritual en Dios mi Salvador, tal como difícilmente puedo soportar. Por lo tanto, detenganme, les dice a los ministros, esos pilares para "sostener al débil", Gal 2:10 y para "consolar al débil de mente". 1 Tesalonicenses 5:14 "Deténme o sostenme con jarras, consuélame con manzanas". Solinus a cuenta de algunos cerca del río Ganges que viven odore pomorum sylvestrium, por el olor b de las manzanas del bosque, que es algo extraño. Porque estoy harto del amor. ] Sorprendida
Song of Solomon 3:10 — Think the same of faith. The covering of it of purple. — I am of their mind that expound it of Christ’s blood, wherewith, as with a canopy, or a kind of heaven overhead, the Church is covered and cured. Revelation 5:9-10 ; Revelation 7:14; Romans 6:3-4 Purple was a rich and dear commodity among them. Proverbs 31:22 ; Proverbs 7:5 Mark 15:17 Luke 16:19 The precious blood of Christ is worthily preferred before gold and silver. 1 Peter 1:18-19 The midst thereof being paved with love. —
Song of Solomon 3:10 — la fe. La cubierta de la misma de púrpura. ] Estoy en la mente de ellos que lo exponen de la sangre de Cristo, con la cual, como con un dosel, o una especie de cielo en lo alto, la Iglesia es cubierta y curada. Apocalipsis 5:9,10 ; Apocalipsis 7:14; Rom 6: 3-4 La púrpura era un bien rico y caro entre ellos. Proverbios 31:22 ; Pro 7: 5 Marco 15:17 Lucas 16:19 La preciosa sangre de Cristo es dignamente preferida al oro y la plata. 1 Pedro 1: 18-19 En medio de ella está pavimentado con amor. ]
Isaiah 1:1 — por eso se le llama profeta evangélico. d En el Nuevo Testamento es citado por Cristo y sus apóstoles al menos sesenta veces diferentes; y por los paganos más devotos fue respetado no poco, como parece en la historia de ese eunuco etíope. Hechos 8: 26-40 La visión. ] Es decir, las diversas visiones o doctrinas que Dios le reveló con tanta certeza y claridad, como si las hubiera visto con sus ojos corporales. Ver Isa 2: 1 Nahúm 1:1 . Porque no deben ser escuchados los que sostienen que estos videntes,
Hosea 11:8 — one blow; Fiat iustitia, pereat mundus. Oh! I cannot find in my heart to do it. For my Repentings are kindled together — Simul aestuant viscera mea poenitentia. So Tremellius; My bowels are altogether on a light fire with repentings, as Genesis 43:30 1 Kings 3:26 . Now repentings are as improperly attributed to God as bowels. There were a sort of ignorant monks in Egypt, who started this foolish and ridiculous question (which yet bred no small stirs there, A.D. 403), An Deus corporeus sit? Whether
Hosea 3:3 — aún no han sido completamente humillados. Si estuvieran maduros, él está listo; cuando la ayuda es oportuna, le pican los dedos (dice uno) por estar haciendo, como le duele el pecho a la madre cuando llega el momento de que el niño succione, Éxodo 12:40,41 . A la medianoche fueron asesinados los primogénitos e Israel expulsado, porque entonces exactamente se cumplieron los 400 o 430 años de su cautiverio en Egipto. Así que Daniel 5:30 , "En esa noche fue asesinado Belsasar"; porque entonces exactamente
Hosea 8:7 — Proverbs 22:8 . But our prophet here saith more. He that soweth the wind of iniquity shall reap the terrible tempest of inconceivable misery. By the "blast of God he shall perish, and by the breath of his nostrils he shall be consumed," Job 4:8-9 . As the beginnings of idolatry, hypocrisy, vain glory, carnal policy, …, are empty and unhappy (it is but the sowing of blasted grain, as the Septuagint here hath it, seed corrupted by the wind, ανεμοφθορα
Jonah 4:1 — what is best to be done. Cease, therefore, from rash anger, and stint strife betime. "The beginning of it," saith Solomon, "is as when one letteth out water; therefore leave off contention before it be meddled with," Proverbs 17:14 . Storms rise out of little gusts, and the highest winds are at first but a small vapour. Had Jonah stopped or stepped back when he felt himself first stirred, he had not so shamefully overshot himself, nor heaped up so many sins, as he did in the following
Jonah 4:1 — mismos y a lo que es mejor. para acabar. Deja, pues, de la ira impetuosa, y limita la contienda antes de tiempo. "El principio", dice Salomón, "es como cuando se arroja agua; por tanto, deja la contención antes de que se entrometa", Proverbios 17:14 . Las tormentas surgen de pequeñas ráfagas, y los vientos más fuertes al principio no son más que un pequeño vapor. Si Jonás se hubiera detenido o dado un paso atrás cuando se sintió conmovido por primera vez, no se había sobrepasado tan vergonzosamente
Zechariah 1:16 — Therefore thus saith the LORD; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the LORD of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem. Therefore thus saith the Lord — Thus, one deep calleth another, Psalms 42:7 ; the lower deep of our misery, the higher deep of God’s mercy. As Croesus’ dumb son burst out into, Kill not King Croesus; so, when enemies are ready to devour the Church, God’s bowels work; he can hold no longer, but cries, Save
Zechariah 1:16 — tanto, así ha dicho Jehová: He vuelto a Jerusalén con misericordia; en ella se edificará mi casa, dice Jehová de los ejércitos, y se extenderá cordel sobre Jerusalén. Ver. 16. Por tanto, así dice el Señor ] Así, uno de los abismos llama a otro, Salmo 42:7 ; el abismo más bajo de nuestra miseria, el abismo más alto de la misericordia de Dios. Cuando el hijo tonto de Creso estalló en: No mates al rey Creso; así, cuando los enemigos están listos para devorar la Iglesia, las entrañas de Dios trabajan;
Matthew 7:20 — examination and discretion go before both rejection of errors and receiving of truths. "Try all things; hold fast that which is good," 1 Thessalonians 5:21 . As the mouth tasteth meat, so the ear must try and taste words,Job 12:11; Job 12:11 ; Job 34:3 . He is a fool that believeth everything, nay, anything that tends to the cherishing of corruption and carnal liberty, or the advancing of corrupt nature, which is nothing else but a piece of proud flesh, and must be abased to the utmost. Sub laudibus
Matthew 7:20 — examen y la discreción van antes que el rechazo de los errores y la recepción de las verdades. . "Probad todo; retened lo bueno", 1 Tesalonicenses 5:21 . Como la boca prueba la carne, así el oído debe probar y saborear las palabras, Job 12:11 ; Job 34:3 . Es un necio que cree todo, es más, todo lo que tiende a apreciar la corrupción y la libertad carnal, o el avance de la naturaleza corrupta, que no es más que un pedazo de carne orgullosa, y debe ser humillado al máximo. a Los cristianos deben abundar
