1747. Verse 23 That not a thread, nor even the latchet of a shoe, nor anything that is yours will I take, lest you say, I have made Abram rich. 'That not a thread, nor even the latchet of a shoe' means all things, natural and bodily, that were unclean. 'Nor anything that is yours will I take' means that nothing of that nature exists with celestial love. 'Lest you say, I have made Abram rich' means that the Lord acquired no strength whatever from such a source.
