Ecclesiastes7:18

18 It is good that thou shouldest take hold of this , yea also from this withdraw not thine hand : for he that feareth God , shall come forth of them all .

Embrace and practise.

This Counsel last given, v. 17.

From that foregoing Advice, v. 16. It is good to avoid both those extreams.

From the practice of it.

Who ordereth his actions so as to please God, and keep his Commands, and walk by the rule of his Word.

Shall be delivered from both these, and from all other extreams, and from all the evil consequences of them. The word all is somtimes put for both, as being used of two only, as Eccles. 2. 14.
