Bible Comments

The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.

Must be first (before all others) partaker. The right of first partaking of the fruits belongs to him who is not merely a farmer by profession, but one labouring: do not thou relax thy labours, as thou wouldest be foremost in the reward (Matthew 5:12).
