Judges 17:13 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Then said Micah, Now know I that the LORD will do me good, seeing I have a Levite to [my] priest.

Ver. 13. Now know I that the Lord.] In his blind devotion he promiseth himself prosperity: so do Papists in their priests' absolution, Pope's pardon. But it happened otherwise with Micah; Jdg 18:18-20 like as it did with the riflers of Semiramis' tomb, who expected rich treasure, but met with a deadly poison.

Fallitur augurio spes bona saepe suo.

Judges 17:13

13 Then said Micah, Now know I that the LORD will do me good, seeing I have a Levite to my priest.
