Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 15. Notwithstanding, you may select, prepare, and appropriate any good thing from the memory and the natural mind, and adjoin it to your character, even whatever is agreeable to the natural desires, according to the abundant stores of natural good which the Divine Love and Wisdom have given you; both the faculties of the mind which are given to the soul by regeneration, and those which are simply natural may appropriate good from this source, according to the natural affection of truth and good.
