This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
22. ἢ παραζηλοῦμεν τὸν κύριον; i.e. as the Jews had done to their cost. See note on last verse. Cf. also Numbers 14; Deu 32:21; Psa 95:8; Heb 3:16. The same word is found, with the same translation, in Rom 10:19; Rom 11:11, and in 1Co 10:14 of that chapter it is translated provoke to emulation.

μὴ ἰσχυρότεροι αὐτοῦ ἐσμέν; Surely we are not stronger than He? After having thus hinted at a wrath to come, St Paul turns abruptly aside, after his manner, to introduce a new argument.
