Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
| A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882] |
| cast . . . silver in . . . streets--just retribution; they had abused their silver and gold by converting them into idols, "the stumbling-block of their iniquity" (Eze 14:3-4, that is, an occasion of sinning); so these silver and gold idols, so far from "being able to deliver them in the day of the Lord's wrath" (see Pro 11:4), shall, in despair, be cast by them into the streets as a prey to the foe, by whom they shall be "removed" (GROTIUS translates as the Margin, "shall be despised as an unclean thing"); or rather, as suits the parallelism, "shall be put away from them" by the Jews [CALVIN]. "They (the silver and gold) shall not satisfy their souls," that is, their cravings of appetite and other needs. |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
Shall be removed - literally, "shall be an unclean thing" Lev 20:21; their gold shall be unclean and abominable in their eyes.
The stumblingblock of their iniquity - See Eze 3:20. Their gold and silver used in making images was the occasion of their sin. |
| Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible, by John Wesley [1754-65] |
| Cast - That they may be the lighter to fly. Removed - Carried away into Babylon. Not satisfy - They shall afford them no comfort. Stumbling - block - This silver and gold they coveted immeasurably, and abused to pride, luxury, idolatry and oppression; this that they stumbled at and fell into sin, now they stumble at and fall into the deepest misery. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
They shall cast their silver in the streets - Their riches can be of no use; as in a time of famine there is no necessary of life to be purchased, and gold and silver cannot fill their bowels.
It is the stumbling-block of their iniquity - They loved riches, and placed in the possession of them their supreme happiness. Now they find a pound of gold not worth an ounce of bread. |
4 Riches [01952] profit [03276] not in the day [03117] of wrath [05678]: but righteousness [06666] delivereth [05337] from death [04194].
