Matthew Poole and continuators on 1 Timothy 6:10

10 For the love of mony is the root of all evil : which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith , and pierced themselves through with many sorrows .

Mony it self is not evil, but the immoderate love of it whether discerned in an over eager desire after it, or an excessive delight in it is the cause of much evil both of sin, and punishment.

Which Mony while some too greedily thirsted after (for though the article be feminine and cannot Grammatically agree with [non-Latin text not transcribed], which is [illegible: 1 letter]euter, yet that doth agree with it as to the sense being understood in [non-Latin text not transcribed], with which the subjunctive article Grammatically agreeth) they have erred, or been seduced from the Faith, that is the doctrine of the Gospel or profession of Christianity.

And exposed themselves to a great many sorrows, which have pierced their very Souls, such as cares, troubles for the loss of their Estates, &c.
