Passage 2: Ezekiel 19

(Eze 19:1) Thou also, take vp a lamentation for the princes of Israel,

(Notes Reference) Moreover take thou up a lamentation for the (a) princes of Israel,

(a) That is, Jehoahaz and Jehoiakim, Josiah's sons, who for their pride and cruelty are compared to lions.

(Eze 19:2) And say, Wherefore lay thy mother as a lyonesse among the lyons? she nourished her yong ones among the lyons whelps,

(Notes Reference) And say, What [is] thy (b) mother? A lioness: she lay down among lions, she nourished her whelps among young lions.

(b) That is Jehoahaz's mother, or Jerusalem.

(Eze 19:3) And she brought vp one of her whelps, and it became a lyon, and it learned to catch the praye, and it deuoured men.

(Eze 19:4) The nations also heard of him, and he was taken in their nets, and they brought him in chaines vnto the land of Egypt.

(Notes Reference) The (c) nations also heard of him; he was taken in their pit, and they brought him with chains to the land of Egypt.

(Eze 19:5) Nowe when she sawe, that she had waited and her hope was lost, she tooke another of her whelps, and made him a lyon.

(Notes Reference) Now when she saw that she had waited, [and] her hope was lost, then she took another of her (d) whelps, [and] made him a young lion.

(d) Which was Jehoiakim.

(Eze 19:6) Which went among the lyons, and became a lyon, and learned to catch the praye, and he deuoured men.

(Notes Reference) And he went up and down among the lions, he became a young lion, and learned to catch the prey, [and] devoured (e) men.

(e) He slew the prophets and them that feared God and ravished their wives.

(Eze 19:7) And he knew their widowes, and he destroyed their cities, and the land was wasted, and all that was therein by the noyse of his roaring.

(Eze 19:8) Then the nations set against him on euery side of the countreys, and laide their nets for him: so he was taken in their pit.

(Notes Reference) Then the (f) nations set against him on every side from the provinces, and spread their net over him: he was taken in their pit.

(f) Nebuchadnezzar with his great army which was gathered from various nations.

(Eze 19:9) And they put him in prison and in chaines, and brought him to the King of Babel, and they put him in holdes, that his voyce should no more be heard vpon the mountaines of Israel.

(Eze 19:10) Thy mother is like a vine in thy blood, planted by the waters: she brought foorth fruite and branches by the abundant waters,

(Notes Reference) Thy (g) mother [is] like a vine in thy blood, planted by the waters: she was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.

(g) He speaks this in the reproach of this wicked king, in whose blood, that is in the race of his predecessors, Jerusalem would have been blessed according to God's promise and flourished as a fruitful vine.

(Eze 19:11) And she had strong rods for the scepters of them that beare rule, and her stature was exalted among the branches, and she appeared in her height with the multitude of her branches.

(Eze 19:12) But she was plucked vp in wrath: she was cast downe to the ground, and the East winde dried vp her fruite: her branches were broken, and withered: as for the rod of her strength, the fire consumed it.

(Notes Reference) But she was plucked up in fury, she was cast down to the ground, and the (h) east wind dried up her fruit: her strong rods were broken and withered; the fire consumed them.

(h) Meaning, that the Chaldeans would destroy them as the east wind does the fruit of the vine.

(Eze 19:13) And now she is planted in the wildernes in a drie and thirstie ground.

Passage 3: Luke 16

(Luk 16:1) And he sayde also vnto his disciples, There was a certaine riche man, which had a stewarde, and he was accused vnto him, that he wasted his goods.

(Notes Reference) And he said also unto his disciples, (1) There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.

(1) Seeing that men often purchase friendship for themselves at the expense of others, we are to be ashamed if we do not please the Lord or procure the good will of our neighbours with the goods which the Lord has bestowed on us freely and liberally, making sure that by this means riches, which are often occasions of sin, are used for another end and purpose.

(Luk 16:2) And hee called him, and saide vnto him, Howe is it that I heare this of thee? Giue an accounts of thy stewardship: for thou maiest be no longer steward.

(Luk 16:3) Then the stewarde saide within himselfe, What shall I doe? for my master taketh away from me the stewardship. I cannot digge, and to begge I am ashamed.

(Luk 16:4) I knowe what I will doe, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receiue mee into their houses.

(Luk 16:5) Then called he vnto him euery one of his masters detters, and said vnto the first, Howe much owest thou vnto my master?

(Luk 16:6) And he said, An hudreth measures of oyle. And he saide to him, Take thy writing, and sitte downe quickely, and write fiftie.

(Luk 16:7) Then said he to another, How much owest thou? And hee sayde, An hundreth measures of wheate. Then he saide to him, Take thy writing, and write foure score.

(Luk 16:8) And the Lord commended the vniust stewarde, because he had done wisely. Wherefore the children of this worlde are in their generation wiser then the children of light.

(Notes Reference) And the lord commended (a) the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the (b) children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.

(a) This parable does not approve the steward's evil dealing, for it was definitely theft: but parables are set forth to show a thing in a secret way, and as it were, to present the truth by means of an allegory, even though it may not be exact: so that by this parable Christ means to teach us that worldly men are more clever in the affairs of this world than the children of God are diligent for everlasting life.

(b) Men that are given to this present life, contrary to whom are the children of light: Paul calls the former carnal and the latter spiritual.

(Luk 16:9) And I say vnto you, Make you friends with the riches of iniquitie, that when ye shall want, they may receiue you into euerlasting habitations.

(Notes Reference) And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon (c) of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting (d) habitations.

(c) This is not spoken of goods that are gotten wrongly, for God will have our bountifulness to the poor proceed and come from a good fountain: but he calls those things riches of iniquity which men use wickedly.

(d) That is, the poor Christians: for they are the inheritors of these habitations; Theophylact.

(Luk 16:10) He that is faithfull in the least, hee is also faithful in much: and he that is vniust in the least, is vniust also in much.

(Notes Reference) (2) He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

(2) We ought to take heed that we do not abuse our earthly work and duty and so be deprived of heavenly gifts: for how can they properly use spiritual gifts who abuse worldly things?

(Luk 16:11) If then ye haue not ben faithful in the wicked riches, who wil trust you in the true treasure?

(Notes Reference) If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the (c) true [riches]?

(Luk 16:12) And if ye haue not bene faithfull in another mans goods, who shall giue you that which is yours?

(Notes Reference) And if ye have not been faithful in that which is (f) another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?

(f) In worldly goods, which are called other men's because they are not ours, but rather entrusted to our care.

(Luk 16:13) No seruaunt can serue two masters: for either he shall hate the one, and loue the other: or els he shall leane to the one, and despise the other. Yee can not serue God and riches.

(Notes Reference) (3) No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

(3) No man can love God and riches simultaneously.

(Luk 16:14) All these thinges heard the Pharises also which were couetous, and they scoffed at him.

(Luk 16:15) Then he sayde vnto them, Yee are they, which iustifie your selues before men: but God knoweth your heartes: for that which is highly esteemed among men, is abomination in the sight of God.

(Notes Reference) (4) And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

(4) Our sins are not hidden to God, although they may be hidden to men, yea although they may be hidden to those who committed them.

(Luk 16:16) The Lawe and the Prophets endured vntill Iohn: and since that time the kingdome of God is preached, and euery man preasseth into it.

(Notes Reference) (5) The law and the prophets [were] until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.

(5) The Pharisees despised the excellency of the new covenant with respect to the old, being ignorant of the perfect righteousness of the law; and Christ declares by the seventh commandment how they were false expounders of the law.

(Luk 16:17) Nowe it is more easie that heauen and earth shoulde passe away, then that one title of the Lawe should fall.

(Luk 16:18) Whosoeuer putteth away his wife, and marieth another, committeth adulterie: and whosoeuer marieth her that is put away from her husband, committeth adulterie.

(Notes Reference) Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her (g) that is put away from [her] husband committeth adultery.

(g) They that gather by this passage that a man cannot be married again after he has divorced his wife for adultery, while she lives, reason incorrectly: for Christ speaks of those divorces which the Jews had which were not because of adultery, for adulterers were put to death by the law.

(Luk 16:19) There was a certaine riche man, which was clothed in purple and fine linnen, and fared well and delicately euery day.

(Notes Reference) (6) There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in (h) purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:

(6) The end of the poverty and misery of the godly will be everlasting joy, as the end of riotous living and the cruel pride of the rich will be everlasting misery, without any hope of mercy.

(h) Very gorgeously and sumptuously, for purple garments were costly, and this fine linen, which was a kind of linen that came out of Achaia, was as precious as gold.

(Luk 16:20) Also there was a certaine begger named Lazarus, which was laide at his gate full of sores,

(Luk 16:21) And desired to bee refreshed with the crommes that fell from the riche mans table: yea, and the dogges came and licked his sores.

(Luk 16:22) And it was so that the begger died, and was caried by the Angels into Abrahams bosome. The rich man also died, and was buried.

(Luk 16:23) And being in hell in torments, he lift vp his eyes, and sawe Abraham a farre off, and Lazarus in his bosome.

(Notes Reference) And in hell (i) he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

(i) Heavenly and spiritual things are expressed and set forth using language fit for our senses.

(Luk 16:24) Then he cried, and saide, Father Abraham, haue mercie on mee, and sende Lazarus that hee may dippe the tip of his finger in water, and coole my tongue: for I am tormented in this flame.

(Luk 16:25) But Abraham saide, Sonne, remember that thou in thy life time receiuedst thy pleasures, and likewise Lazarus paines: now therefore is he comforted, and thou art tormented.

(Luk 16:26) Besides all this, betweene you and vs there is a great gulfe set, so that they which would goe from hence to you, can not: neither can they come from thence to vs.

(Luk 16:27) Then he said, I pray thee therfore, father, that thou wouldest sende him to my fathers house,

(Notes Reference) (7) Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:

(7) Seeing that we have a most sure rule to live by, laid forth for us in the word of God, men seek rashly and vainly for other revelations.

(Luk 16:28) (For I haue fiue brethren) that he may testifie vnto them, least they also come into this place of torment.

(Luk 16:29) Abraham said vnto him, They haue Moses and the Prophets: let them heare them.

(Luk 16:30) And he sayde, Nay, father Abraham: but if one came vnto them from the dead, they will amend their liues.

(Luk 16:31) Then he saide vnto him, If they heare not Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rise from the dead againe.
