Isaiah 23:8 Who has taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes… I. MANY MERCHANTS ARE MUCH TRIED WITH LIMITED CAPITAL. II. MANY MERCHANTS ARE TEMPTED TO OVERCARE AND ANXIETY. III. MERCHANTS ARE TEMPTED SOMETIMES TO NEGLECT THEIR HOME DUTIES. IV. MANY MERCHANTS ARE TEMPTED TO MAKE FINANCIAL GAIN OF MORE IMPORTANCE THAN THE SOUL. (T. De Witt Talmage, D. D.) Parallel Verses KJV: Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honourable of the earth? |
