Luke 4:9-13 And in their hands they shall bear you up, lest at any time you dash your foot against a stone.… As, seeing the water of distrust will not extinguish His faith, but that He would trust in God, he endeavoureth now by Scriptures (that magnify the providence of God, and the confidence we are to put in Him) to set Him as far gone in the other extreme, by presuming or trusting too much, that so the fire, which before he would have quenched, may now so flame out as not to keep itself within the chimney, but to set the whole house on fire. (Bishop Andrewes.) Parallel Verses KJV: And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.WEB: and, 'On their hands they will bear you up, lest perhaps you dash your foot against a stone.'" |
