This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Gen_29:8 And they said, We cannot, until all the flocks be gathered together, and [till] they roll the stone from the well’s mouth; then we water the sheep.
Ver. 8. We cannot, until all the flocks.] As we are not, by the example of these shepherds, to enterprise things above our strength, {Psa_131:1} so neither to be discouraged by every difficulty; but to lend, and borrow help one of another; each man "pleasing his neighbour for his good, and serving him in love, to edification". {Rom_14:1-2}
“ Divisae his operae, sed mens fuit unica, pavit
Ore Lutherus oves, flore Melancthon apes .”
