1 Kings 20:39

Studie

       

39 And as the king passed by, he cried to the king: and he said, Thy servant went out into the midst of the battle; and behold, a man turned aside, and brought a man to me, and said, Keep this man: if by any means he shall be missing, then shall thy life be for his life, or else thou shalt pay a talent of silver.

Napsal(a) Henry MacLagan

Verse 39. And it is the dictate of the Word, in its power, to the selfish man of the corrupted church, that even from apparent truths, it is seen, that conflict between good and evil and truth and error must take place, during which it happens, from Divine Order, that the natural man is subdued, and must be held in check internally as well as externally; because, if he is not so restrained, either all spiritual life is destroyed, or the acknowledgment of the Lord under the influence of the genuine truth accompanied by repentance must follow.
