HOLY MEN A MORE SPECIAL OBJECT OF IT (Psalm 33:18; Psalm 37:23; text). III. HENCE WILL FOLLOW THAT THE SPIRITS OF GOOD MEN HAVE SUFFICIENT GROUNDS TO BEAR UP IN THEM INNOCENT SUFFERINGS AND STORMS IN THE WORLD (Hebrews 6:10). IV. HENCE FOLLOWS A CERTAIN SECURITY AGAINST A GOOD MAN'S WANT (Psalm 34:10; 1 Timothy 4:8). (S. Charnock, B. D.) Parallel Verses KJV: For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars. |
