1. Wicked servants prosecute the quarrel of wicked masters against the Church.

2. Persecuting enemies, if in their power, would not spare a little water to the saints.

3. The wicked double their strife to destroy the life of the saints.

4. Saints give way to the malice of adversaries, but leave a brand of their hateful carriages (ver. 21) in what they yield to them. Sitnah.

5. All the envy and malice of the wicked will stand up as a monument against them, when God shall call them to account (ver. 21).

(G. Hughes, B. D.)
