5 Munster carries it so; When the Righteousness of GOD, was by our SAVIOUR brought unto the Children of Men, the Miracles which accompanied the Dispensation were very wonderful. But there are Marvellous things which yet remain to be done.
8 Dr. Patricks Paraphrase is, The most barbarous People, who live in the most remote Parts of the Earth, behold with wonder the Heavenly Bodies, which God has appointed for Signs and Tokens. [Gen. I. 4.] In the Title Page of a Book about, The Gospel of the RAINBOW, I have seen the Text so translated, They who dwell in the uttermost Parts, have a Reverence for thy Tokens; Thou visitest the Earth & waterest it. Alsted would have the Outgoings of the Morning, refer to Man, and the Cattle, which then go out to work and feed; and the Outgoings of the Evening refer to Wild Beasts, which then go out for their Prey.
8 Arnobius here considers the God of Salvation, as Exhibited at the first Preaching of the Gospel. Then the Apostles appeared as Mountains, from whence there was Proclaimed the Gospel to every Creature. Then they who dwelt in the uttermost Parts, were struck with Reverence, at the Miracles wrought by our Lord. Both Morning & Evening; both Eastern and Western World, felt the joyful effect of these things, in Churches gathered every where. The Lord then visited the Earth, and Watered it with the Heavenly Influences of His Holy Spirit. From Jordan, the River of GOD, there particularly issued that which enriched it. GOD then prepared for His People the Food which endures to Everlasting Life.
