Vers. 5. I will therefore put you in remembrance, for as much as ye once know this, how that the Lord after that he had deliuered the people out of Egypt, destroyed them afterward which beleeued not.]
The Apostle having propounded his principal exhortation to contend and fight for the faith, vers. 3. with the reason thereof, vers. 4. doth here begin to answer a secret objection which might be made against that reason, thus: These seducers profess Christ, and look for salvation by him; what danger then can redound if we should join our selves unto them? This objection is answered from this fifth verse unto the twentieth; in all which verses he disputeth at large that there is great danger herein, seeing their end shall be destruction: the sum of which disputation is contained in this reason: All such persons as give themselves liberty to sin▪ shall be destroyed: But these seducers give themselves liberty to sin; and therefore shall be destroyed. The former part of which reason is contained in the 5.6.7. verses; and the latter from the 8. unto the 20. The former proposition is not plainly set down in so many words, but the proof of it only by an induction and enumeration of examples of sinners, which have bin destroyed; and they be three in number: first of the Israelites, in the 5. verse: secondly of the Angels, in the 6. verse: thirdly, of Sodom and Gomorrah, in the 7. verse.
THe Apostle hauing propounded his principall exhortation to contend and fight for the faith, vers. 3. with the reason thereof, vers. 4. doth here begin to answere a secret obiection which might bee made against that reason, thus: These seducers professe Christ, and looke for saluation by him; what danger then can redound if we should ioyne our selues vnto them? This obiection is answered from this fifth verse vnto the twentith; in all which verses hee disputeth at large that there is great daunger herein, seeing their end shall be destruction: the summe of which disputation is contained in this reason: All such persons as giue themselues libertie to sinne shal be destroyed: But these seducers giue themselues libertie to sinne; and therefore shall be destroyed. The former part of which reason is contained in the 5.6.7. verses; and the latter from the 8. vnto the 20. The former proposition is not plainly set downe in so many words, but the proofe of it onely by an induction and enumeration of examples of sinners, which haue bin destroyed; and they be three in number: first of the Israelites, in the 5. verse: secondly of the Angels, in the 6. verse: thirdly, of Sodom and Gomorrha, in the 7. verse.
