17 και ου πληθυνει εαυτω γυναικας ουδε μεταστησεται αυτου η καρδια και αργυριον και χρυσιον ου πληθυνει εαυτω σφοδρα


Commentarius in hunc versum  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 17. Neither is the ruling principle of action of the soul to be conjoined with delights proceeding from the loves of evil and falsity that flatter self, lest the inmost will be drawn away from the Lord: nor shall the soul trust to the multiplication of mere doctrinals and knowledges acquired by self-intelligence.
