Genesis 1:30 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein [there is] life, [I have given] every green herb for meat: and it was so.

Ver. 30. And it was so.] Both man and beast were well paid of God's appointment, as good cause they had; for he is no penny father, but openeth his hand, and filleth with his blessing every thing living. Psa 145:16 "And it was so"; an undoubted argument surely of God's infinite goodness, thus to have provided for so divers natures and appetites, divers food, remedies, and armour; Psa 104:1-35 for men, especially, "filling their hearts with food and gladness" Act 14:17
