This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
He sets the difference in view, of living according to the common genius, will, or inclination of the world, (which is lust), and according to the Divine will, that he who unites himself in his will and desire with the former, which vanishes, (objects and appetite altogether), must (which is implied) perish therewith; but he that unites himself with the supreme eternal good, by a will that is guided by and conformed to the Divine will,
abideth for ever, partakes a felicity coeternal with the object and rule upon which his heart was set, and which it was guided by.
