Thirdly, It appears from the 44th verse, that even they who sold their goods retained some kind of right in them; for all did not come to the common bank, and take what they pleased; but they who sold their possessions parted the price to all men, allotting to every one a proportion as he had need. It was not share and share like, every man was not his own carver out of the public stock, but distribution was made, as necessity required. God doth to this day keep the eighth commandment in full force and strength, as a Fence or hedge about the worldly estates of men, and he that goes about to break this Hedge, a Serpent shall bite him, as Solomon speaks (Eccl. 10.8.) Hedges are Land-marks; And both are, not only arguments, but securers of propriety.
