1 Corinthians 15:41 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Job 38:31, whose work is to bring the spring, and which, like seven sisters or lovers (as the word signifies), are joined together in one fair constellation. Or "loose the bands of Orion?" the star that brings winter, and binds the earth with frost and cold. "Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth," the southern constellations? "Or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons," that is, the northern stars, those storehouses of God's good treasure, which he openeth to our profit? Deuteronomy 28:12 .
