Verse 13. He that despiseth the word, he shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandments, he shall be rewarded.
Verse 13. He that despiseth the vvord, he shall be destroied: but he that feareth the commandements, he shall be rewarded.
HE that despiseth the word, &c) that is, every one is in a dangerous case, and at least certain to perish in the end, who contemptuously rejecteth the holy Scriptures, which because the Lord doth as it were, speak in them, & declare his will by them, are called his word, and that, for the perfect agreement and consent of all the parts, is set down in the singular number, as if it were but one. Neither is this punishment threatened only to the contemners of the books, and sentences, and Texts of the Scriptures, but likewise to the despisers of the ministry thereof. But he that feareth the commandment, which reverenceth, and loveth, and maketh conscience of the whole doctrine of God he shall be rewarded with peace, and blessings of this life, and glory and blessedness in that which is to come.
