1Pe 5:7. Πᾶσον τὴν μέριμναν, all your anxiety) If the world depresses you, or if many things are wanting to you.-ἐπιῤῥίψαντες, casting) boldly. [Exemption from anxieties is pre-eminently accordant with humility.-V. g.] Psa 55:22, Septuagint, ἐπίῤῥιψον ἐπὶ Κύριον τὴν μέριμνάν σου, καὶ αὐτός σε διαθρέψει, Cast thine anxiety upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee. Casting, watch. There is a close agreement between these two duties, Luk 12:22; Luk 12:37; and Peter adds to each its own because. God provides: therefore do not be anxious. The devil seeks: therefore watch.-μέλει, there is a care) Not so strong a word as μέριμνα, anxiety.
