Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| Also stolen, and dissembled also - The anger of God and the heinousness of Israel's sin are marked by the accumulation of clause upon clause. As a climax they had even appropriated to their own use the consecrated property purloined from God. |
| The Scofield Bible Commentary, by Cyrus Ingerson Scofield, [1917] |
Israel
The sin of Achan and its results teach the great truth of the oneness of the people of God, (Jos 7:11). "Israel hath sinned." See in illustration; (Co1 5:1-7); (Co1 12:12-14); (Co1 12:26). The whole cause of Christ is injured by the sin, neglect, or unspirituality of one believer. |
| Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible, by John Wesley [1754-65] |
| Israel - Some or one of them. Transgressed my covenant - That is, broken the conditions of my covenant which they have promised to perform, whereof this was one, not to meddle with the accursed thing. Stolen - That is, taken my portion which I had reserved, Jos 6:19. Dissembled - Covered the fact with deep dissimulation. Possibly Achan might be suspected, and being accused, had denied it. Among their own stuff - Converted it to their own use, and added obstinacy to the crime. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
| Israel hath sinned - It is impossible that God should turn against his people, if they had not turned away from him. They have taken of the accursed thing, notwithstanding my severe prohibition. They have also stolen, supposing, if not seen by their brethren, I should either not see or not regard it. They have dissembled - pretended to have kept strictly the command I gave them; and have put it among their own stuff - considered it now as a part of their own property. |
26 And [2532] whether [1535] one [1520] member [3196] suffer [3958], all [3956] the members [3196] suffer with it [4841]; or [1535] one [1520] member [3196] be honoured [1392], all [3956] the members [3196] rejoice with it [4796].
12 For [1063] as [2509] the body [4983] is [2076] one [1520], and [2532] hath [2192] many [4183] members [3196], and [1161] all [3956] the members [3196] of that one [1520] body [4983], being [5607] many [4183], are [2076] one [1520] body [4983]: so [3779] also [2532] is Christ [5547].
13 For [1063] [2532] by [1722] one [1520] Spirit [4151] are [907] we [2249] all [3956] baptized [907] into [1519] one [1520] body [4983], whether [1535] we be Jews [2453] or [1535] Gentiles [1672], whether [1535] we be bond [1401] or [1535] free [1658]; and [2532] have been [4222] all [3956] made to drink [4222] into [1519] one [1520] Spirit [4151].
14 [2532] For [1063] the body [4983] is [2076] not [3756] one [1520] member [3196], but [235] many [4183].
1 It is reported [191] commonly [3654] that there is fornication [4202] among [1722] you [5213], and [2532] such [5108] fornication [4202] as [3748] is [3687] not so much [3761] as named [3687] among [1722] the Gentiles [1484], that [5620] one [5100] should have [2192] his father's [3962] wife [1135].
2 And [2532] ye [5210] are [2075] puffed up [5448], and [2532] have [3996] not [3780] rather [3123] mourned [3996], that [2443] he that hath done [4160] this [5124] deed [2041] might be taken away [1808] from [1537] among [3319] you [5216].
3 For [1063] I [1473] verily [3303], as [5613] absent [548] in body [4983], but [1161] present [3918] in spirit [4151], have judged [2919] already [2235], as [5613] though I were present [3918], concerning him that hath [2716] so [3779] done [2716] this deed [5124],
4 In [1722] the name [3686] of our [2257] Lord [2962] Jesus [2424] Christ [5547], when ye [5216] are gathered together [4863], and [2532] my [1699] spirit [4151], with [4862] the power [1411] of our [2257] Lord [2962] Jesus [2424] Christ [5547],
5 To deliver [3860] such an one [5108] unto Satan [4567] for [1519] the destruction [3639] of the flesh [4561], that [2443] the spirit [4151] may be saved [4982] in [1722] the day [2250] of the Lord [2962] Jesus [2424].
6 Your [5216] glorying [2745] is not [3756] good [2570]. Know ye [1492] not [3756] that [3754] a little [3398] leaven [2219] leaveneth [2220] the whole [3650] lump [5445]?
7 Purge out [1571] therefore [3767] the old [3820] leaven [2219], that [2443] ye may be [5600] a new [3501] lump [5445], as [2531] ye are [2075] unleavened [106]. For [1063] even [2532] Christ [5547] our [2257] passover [3957] is sacrificed [2380] for [5228] us [2257]:
11 Israel [03478] hath sinned [02398], and they have also transgressed [05674] my covenant [01285] which I commanded [06680] them: for they have even taken [03947] of the accursed thing [02764], and have also stolen [01589], and dissembled [03584] also, and they have put [07760] it even among their own stuff [03627].
19 But all the silver [03701], and gold [02091], and vessels [03627] of brass [05178] and iron [01270], are consecrated [06944] unto the LORD [03068]: they shall come [0935] into the treasury [0214] of the LORD [03068].
