20 καὶ ἔσται ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὃν ἐὰν ἐκλέξωμαι αὐτόν ἡ ῥάβδος αὐτοῦ ἐκβλαστήσει καὶ περιελῶ ἀπ' ἐμοῦ τὸν γογγυσμὸν τῶν υἱῶν ισραηλ ἃ αὐτοὶ γογγύζουσιν ἐφ' ὑμῖν


Commentary on this verse  

By Henry MacLagan

Verse 5. So that it is of the Divine Providence that truth conjoined with good is powerful to produce good works; and that he who is in this state is no longer in temptations, nor does he oppose Divine Truth from the love of power derived from selfish love.
