Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 31. In the next world such natural good as you have possessed will be destroyed, and you shall perceive it to be so, and that no part is appropriated to you: the understanding of truth which you hadst in your natural mind shall be completely separated from you (as your true interior character becomes developed), and you shall not be able to regain it; and the good affections which you hadst externally will be turned to evils, and there will be no principle in your soul to prevent it.
