Commentary on this verse  

By Henry MacLagan

Verse 16. Also there is further revelation from the Lord by Divine Truth giving perception to the man of the church, that, as a consequence of a state of temptation, holy truths grounded in good, acquired by him and adopted as governing principles, are arranged into order by the Lord under heavenly affections of love, charity, and obedience, and also in subordination to Divine Truth in general.
