geneva@Genesis:24:33 @ And there was set [meat] before him to eat: but he said, I (note:)The faithfulness that servants owe to their masters, causes them to prefer their masters business before their own needs.(:note) will not eat, until I have told mine errand. And he said, Speak on.

geneva@Genesis:27:33 @ And Isaac (note:)In perceiving his error, by appointing his heir against God's sentence pronounced before.(:note) trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where [is] he that hath taken venison, and brought [it] me, and I have eaten of all before thou camest, and have blessed him? yea, [and] he shall be blessed.

geneva@Genesis:32:4 @ And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall ye speak unto my (note:)He reverenced his brother in worldly things, because he mainly looked to be preferred to the spiritual promise.(:note) lord Esau; Thy servant Jacob saith thus, I have sojourned with Laban, and stayed there until now:

geneva@Genesis:35:5 @ And they journeyed: and the (note:)Thus, despite the inconvenience that came before, God delivered Jacob.(:note) terror of God was upon the cities that [were] round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.

geneva@Genesis:43:34 @ And he took [and sent] messes unto them from before him: but Benjamin's mess was five times so much as any of theirs.

geneva@Exodus:36:27 @ And for the sides of the tabernacle (note:)Or, toward the Mediterranean Sea, west of Jerusalem,(:note) westward he made six boards.

geneva@Leviticus:1:1 @ And the (note:)By this Moses declares that he taught nothing to the people but that which he received from God.(:note) LORD called unto Moses, and spake unto him out of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying, The Argument - As God daily by most singular benefits declared himself mindful of his Church: he did not want them to have opportunity to trust either in themselves, or to depend on others, either for lack of physical things, or anything that belonged to his divine service and religion. Therefore he ordained various kinds of duties and sacrifices, to assure them of forgiveness for their offences (if they offered them in true faith and obedience.) Also he appointed the priests and levites, their apparel, offices, conversation and portion; he showed what feasts they should observe, and when. Moreover, he declares by these sacrifices and ceremonies that the reward of sin is death, and that without the blood of Christ the innocent Lamb, there can be no forgiveness of sins. Because they should not give priority to their own inventions (which God detested, as appears by the terrible example of Nadab and Abihu) he prescribed even to the least things, what they should do, what beasts they should offer and eat, what diseases were contagious and to be avoided, how they should purge all types of filthiness and pollution, whose company they should flee, what marriages were lawful, and what customs were profitable. After declaring these things, he promised favour and blessing to those who keep his laws, and threatened his curse to those who transgressed them.

geneva@Leviticus:5:18 @ And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering, unto the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his (note:)Else if his sin against God come of malice, he must die; (Num_15:30).(:note) ignorance wherein he erred and wist [it] not, and it shall be forgiven him.

geneva@Leviticus:10:6 @ And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons, (note:)As though you lamented for them, preferring your carnal affection to God's just judgment; (Lev_19:18; Deu_14:1).(:note) Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the LORD hath In destroying Nadab and Abihu the chief, and menacing the rest, unless they repent. kindled.

geneva@Leviticus:21:12 @ Neither shall he go out of the (note:)To go to the dead.(:note) sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the For by his anointing he was preferred above the other priests and therefore could not lament the dead, least he should have polluted his holy anointing. crown of the anointing oil of his God [is] upon him: I [am] the LORD.

geneva@Leviticus:22:16 @ Or suffer them to bear the iniquity of (note:)For if they did not offer sacrifice for their error, the people by their example might commit the same offence.(:note) trespass, when they eat their holy things: for I the LORD do sanctify them.

geneva@Numbers:1:1 @ And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of (note:)In the place in the wilderness that was near mount Sinai.(:note) Sinai, in the tabernacle of the congregation, on the first [day] of the Which is part of April and part of May. second month, in the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying, The Argument - In that as God has appointed that his Church in this world shall be under the cross, both so they could learn not to put their trust in worldly things, and also feel his comfort, when all other help fails: he did not immediately bring his people, after their departure out of Egypt, into the land which he had promised them: but led them to and fro for the space of forty years, and kept them in continual exercises before they enjoyed it, to try their faith, teach them to forget the world, and to depend on him. Which trial greatly profited, to discern the wicked and the hypocrites from the faithful and true servants of God, who served him with pure heart, while the other, preferring their earthly lusts to God's glory, and making religion to serve their purpose, complained when they lacked enough to satisfy their lusts, and despised those who God had appointed as rulers over them. By reason of which they provoked God's terrible judgments against them, and are set forth as a notable example for all ages, to beware how they abuse God's word, prefer their own lusts to his will, or despise his ministers. Nonetheless, God is always true to his promise, and governs his by his Holy Spirit, that either they fall not to such inconveniences, or else return to him quickly in true repentance: and therefore he continues his graces toward them, he gives them ordinances and instructions, as well for religion, as outward policy: he preserves them against all deceit and conspiracy, and gives them many victories against their enemies. To avoid all controversies that might arise, he takes away the occasions, by dividing among all the tribes, both the land which they had won, and that also which he had promised, as seemed best to his godly wisdom.

geneva@Numbers:12:1 @ And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married (note:)Zipporah, Moses' wife, was a Midianite, and because Midian bordered on Ethiopia, it is sometimes referred to in the scriptures by this name.(:note) an Ethiopian woman.

geneva@Numbers:16:3 @ And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, (note:)Or let it suffice you: meaning, to have abused them this long.(:note) [Ye take] too much upon you, seeing all the congregation [are] holy, All are equally holy: therefore no one should be preferred above other: thus the wicked reason against God's ordinance. every one of them, and the LORD [is] among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?

geneva@Numbers:16:13 @ [Is it] a small thing that thou hast brought us up (note:)Thus they spoke contemptuously, preferring Egypt to Canaan.(:note) out of a land that floweth with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except thou make thyself altogether a prince over us?

He confirms the same doctrine, that the two former do: chiefly he reproves the priests for their covetousness, and because they served God after their own fantasies, and not according to the direction of his word. He also notes certain distinct sins, which were then among them, such as the marrying of idolatrous and many wives, murmurings against God, impatience, and things such as these. Nonetheless, for the comfort of the godly he declares that God would not forget his promise made to their fathers, but would send Christ his messenger, in whom the covenant would be accomplished, whose coming would be terrible to the wicked, and bring all consolation and joy to the godly.
