18 Älköön sinusta olko vaikeata päästää häntä luotasi vapaaksi: onhan hänestä kuutena vuotena ollut sinulle kahta vertaa suurempi hyöty kuin palkkalaisesta. Ja Herra, sinun Jumalasi, on siunaava sinua kaikessa, mitä teet.


Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 18. It shall not seem hard, however, to the internal man when these exterior principles are entirely removed from the soul; for they have performed their service for the spiritual man in conjoining to him interior things during the states of temptation-combat; and the Divine Love and Wisdom will be more closely united to the soul in its future progress. [Note (verses 12-18).—There is to be no waste in the kingdom of the Lord; nothing is to be despised because it is of less use than other things; but everything is to be judiciously used with care and prudence according to its usefulness.]
