Hebrews 10:37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. As the herbs and flowers which sleep all winter in their roots underground, when the time of spring approacheth presently start forth of their beds, where they had lain so long unperceived, thus will the promise in its season do. He delays who passeth the time appointed; but he only stays that waits for the appointed time and then comes. Every promise is dated, but with a mysterious character; and for want of skill in God's chronology we are prone to think that God forgets us, when indeed we forget ourselves in being so bold to set God a time of our own, and in being angry that He comes not just then to us. (W. Gurnall.) Parallel Verses KJV: For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.WEB: "In a very little while, he who comes will come, and will not wait. |
