Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
Ver. 15. I come as a thief] Who gives no warning. See Trapp on " Mat 24:44 " I come suddenly, secretly, yea, and also violently and terribly. See Revelation 3:3; Luk 12:34; 1 Thessalonians 5:2 .
Blessed is he that watcheth] The prophecy is here interrupted as Gen 49:18 to forewarn and forearm the saints; Luke 12:37,38; Luke 12:43, they are three times said to be blessed that watch.
And keepeth his garments] Keepeth himself unspotted of the world, undefiled in the way.
Lest he walk naked, &c.] SeeRevelation 3:18 .
