selves, when we expend his goods for the
benefit of others).
If men would be intrusted with true riches,
they must shew themselves faithful in
what is already committed to their care.
If not faithful in another man's, who, &c.
'No servant can serve two masters,' &c.
The Pharisees being covetous, deride Jesus.
Actions are differently viewed by God & man
The law and prophets witnessed until John.
The gospel requires a stricter obedience than
even that demanded by the law, exempli-
fied in the case of divorce.

Jesus questioned regarding the law of divorce 19.3.
He refers them to Moses .
Who, they think, favours this licence

*This parable also is to be understood by way of contrast; thus, our Judge is not unjust, but the Lord our righteousness. Our judge is he who feared God, and regarded man, so as to lay down his life for us, according to the Father's commandment. The church is not a poor widow, but his own chosen bride. Her prayers do not weary him; he is waiting to be gracious at the voice of her cry. This contrast is implied in ver. 7; Rev. 6. 10.
