18 φρέαρ ὤρυξαν αὐτὸ ἄρχοντες ἐξελατόμησαν αὐτὸ βασιλεῖς ἐθνῶν ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ κυριεῦσαι αὐτῶν καὶ ἀπὸ φρέατος εἰς μανθαναιν


Commentary on this verse  

By Henry MacLagan

Verse 18. For, as from himself, by primary truths, he is enabled to search the Word; and as from himself, from good affections to penetrate its mysteries; while the Lord Himself operates inwardly, and man co-operates outwardly; and thus for obscurity he receives enlightenment from the Lord.
