Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
Ver. 2. Shall judge the world] That is, the wicked, called the inhabitants of the earth, and of the sea, Revelation 12:12, in opposition to the burgesses of the New Jerusalem,Philippians 3:20. And let this comfort us under the perverse censures of worldly men, mad and beside themselves in point of salvation. The Lord seeth that their day is coming, Psalms 37:13 .
