This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Gen_42:14 And Joseph said unto them, That [is it] that I spake unto you, saying, Ye [are] spies:

Ver. 14. That is it that I spake unto you.] He lays it hard to them still: as who should say, The longer I hear you, the worse I like you; ere while ye said, ye were ten brethren of you: now you acknowledge two more: liars had need to have good memories, &c. {a} Be we as jealous of Satan, and as watchful against his wiles, when he comes to set out the nakedness of our souls; that where the hedge is lowest, this beast may leap over; watch him, I say, and "learn out his haunts," for we have heard and felt that he is very subtle; as Saul said of David, 1Sa_23:22.



{a} Mendacem oportet esse memorem.
