Psalm 119:162 (a) The wonderful Word of GOD is full of rich treasures for the heart, the soul and the mind. The Psalmist felt like he was being greatly enriched as he found these precious jewels in the Scriptures. The Bible is not just a text book, but rather it is a storehouse of food, of jewels, or rich treasures of every kind, and as these are found by the reader, they bring joy to the soul and heart.

Song of Solomon 2:15 (a) The picture presented here represents those little sins, habits and conditions which are called "foxes," and which hinder the Christian from growing in grace and from bearing fruit for GOD.
Matthew 12:29 (a) Our Lord gives in this parable the story of salvation or conversion. The strong man's house is the Devil's house, or the Devil's territory. The "goods" are the people who are ensnared and enslaved by Satan. The one who enters the house is the Lord JESUS CHRIST who alone is able to bind and to conquer Satan. He then takes those who have belonged to Satan and delivers them from Satan's power and sets them free. This operation is represented as the spoiling of his (Satan's). house. (See Mark 3:27).
Colossians 2:8 (a) The thought presented by this type is that of ruining; the testimony and the godly life of a believer through the teaching of false doctrines, or of evil practices.
