All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
Ver. 37. All that the Father giveth me] Gr. παντα, all things, that is, the whole community of Christians, all the elect, of which number you plainly show yourselves to be none by your want of the faith of God's elect, that distinctive character. Wisdom is justified of all her children.
I will in no wise cast out] Gr. ου μη εκβαλω εξω, I will not not, cast out out. A powerful speech, and a most comfortable consideration. Who would not come to Jesus Christ upon such sweetest encouragement? Surely as all that were in debt and distress came to David, and he became their captain; so should all afflicted spirits come to the Son of David, the Captain of our salvation. Non autem pedibus itur ad Christum, sed affectibus, &c., Moreover he should not come to Christ but with affection, where this life giving carcase is, thither let the eagles resort.
