Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

"Wherefore should I be afraid like them?" The days of old age and death are the days of evil, Eccl. xii. In the day of judgment the iniquity of our heels (or of our steps, our past sins) will compass us about, will be set in order before us.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan
