Romans9:33
33. As it is written , Behold I lay in Sion a stumbling stone , and rock of offence, and whosoever believeth on him, shall not be ashamed .
viz. in Isa. 8.14. and 28.16. to which Prophecy also, the Apostle Peter refers, in 1 Pet. 2.6, 7, 8.
Iesus Christ is properly a Corner Stone, Elect and Precious; but accidentally and eventually a Stumbling Stone, Luk. 2.34.
Or Confounded. Isaiah saith, He that believeth; the Apostle, Whosoever believeth; which is much the same: An indefinite Proposition is equivalent to an Universal: The Prophet saith, He that believeth shall not make hast; the Apostle, He shall not be ashamed. He that is Rash and Hasty will at last be ashamed and confounded.
Marginal references: Mat. 21.42.; Chap. 10.11.; Or, confoundded.
