A.D. 435 – 1871 4 witnesses
“When we have made the Lord's yoke heavy and hard to us, we at once complain in a blasphemous spirit of the hardness and roughness of the yoke itself or of Christ who lays it on us.”
“When a righteous man turneth away from his righteousness,.... This is repeated for the further confirmation of it, and to raise their attention to it; to make it more plain and manifest to them, and to fix it upon their minds: and committeth iniquity, and dieth in them: or, "he shall die for them" (m); both for his turning away from his righteousness, and for his committing iniquity: for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die; in both respects. This is repeated to denote the certainty of it. (m) "propter illa", Pagninus, Piscator, Grotius, Cocceius; so some in Vatsbins.”
“Not right, in thus punishing or rewarding for the last act; (Theodoret) or rather, God shews that those who complain are guilty.”
“Their plea for saying, "The way of the Lord is not equal," was that God treated different classes in a different way. But it was really their way that was unequal, since living in sin they expected to be dealt with as if they were righteous. God's way was invariably to deal with different men according to their deserts.”
The in-app commentary runs from the Fathers to the early-modern record, then stops — that's where the public-domain sources end, not where the reading does. For the modern reading, follow the sources directly.
