1 Kings 8:27
God <0430> [But will.]
sky .... highest heaven <08064> [the heaven.]
Job 25:5-6
man <0582> [How much less, etc.]
The original is degradingly expressive: "How much less {enosh,} miserable man, who is a worm; and the son of Adam, who is {tol‰„h,} a maggot."
Matthew 25:24
had received <2983> [he which.]
Our Lord placed the example of negligence in him to whom the least was committed, probably to "intimate" says Doddridge, "that we are accountable for the smallest advantage with which we are entrusted; but it cannot imply that they who have received much will ordinarily pass their account best; for it is too plain, in fact, that most of those whose dignity, wealth, and genius give them the greatest opportunities of service, seem to forget that they have any Master in heaven to serve, or any future reckoning to expect; and many render themselves much more criminal than this wicked and slothful servant who hid his talents in the earth."
Sir <2962> [Lord.]
I knew <1097> [I knew.]
