1 Timothy 6:8 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

If therefore God gives us any thing more than is necessary for us, let us take it thankfully, and use it for God's glory; but if we have no more than is just necessary for us, let us not repine, or murmur, but be content, without murmuring against God, or using any undue means, out of an inordinate desire to get more.

1 Timothy 6:8

8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
