On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

A good man will deny himself that liberty which he will not deny another, contrary to the practice of the Pharisees, Matt. xxiii. There was not the same reason why Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre, should quit their right, that there was why Abram should. They did not make the profession that he made, nor were they, as he was, under the obligation of a vow.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Rich countries are a desirable prey, and idle luxurious countries are an easy prey, to growing greatness. The Sodomites were the posterity of Canaan whom Noah had pronounced a servant to Shem, from whom Elam descended; thus soon did that prophecy begin to e fulfilled.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

In all our prayers we must praise God, and join hallelujahs with all our hosannas. These are the spiritual sacrifices we must offer up daily, and upon particular occasions. God as the most high God must have the glory of all our victories.
