[8829] Perhaps there may be an allusion to Phil. iv. 6, 7.
[8830] See chap. vii. above, and compare Matt. vi. 14, 15.
[8831] “Ab initio” probably refers to the book of Genesis, the initium, or beginning of Scripture, to which he is about to refer. But see likewise Eph. 4.31; Matt. 5.21-22; Gen. 4.6-77
[8832] Gen. xlv. 24: so the LXX.

[8839] John xvii. 14; Rom. xiv. 17.

Compare, too,Ex. xvii. 11, 12. But probably he is speaking only of the Israel of his own day. [Evidently.]
