This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
7 Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?
Ver. 7. Ye did run well] Why do ye now stop or step back? Tutius recurrere quam male currere, was the Emperor Philip’s symbol. (Reusner Symb.) Better run back than run amiss; for in this case, "He that hasteth with his feet, sinneth," Pro_19:2. But to run well till a man sweats, and then to sit down and take cold, may cause a consumption.
Who did let you?] Gr. "Threw a block in your way," åãêïðôåéí , transversum aliquid struere.
