Ver. 7. And trimmed their lamps] The foolish also made a fair flourish, and held themselves, haply, in case good enough for heaven; deceiving their own hearts, or rather deceived by them, while they use fallacious and specious sophisms, James 1:26, to make themselves believe their penny to be good silver, when as it is nothing better than a slip.
