753. That 'seven days' means the onset of temptation has been shown above at verse 4. It also relates to what has gone before, namely that this temptation, which involved the things of his understanding, was the onset of temptation, or the initial temptation, and is accordingly a statement concluding the subject dealt with. And because this first temptation involved things of the understanding, verse 7 above speaks of 'waters of the flood', and verse 6 of 'the flood of waters', which properly means that kind of temptation, as shown in those places.
