1 Timothy2:4

Verſe 4. Who will have all men, &c.] God willeth, to wit, with a will whereby he inviteth, and putteth no bar, not with a will whereby he effecteth it, taking away all impediments.

That all men] Not diſtributively taken, but collectively, as thrice in one verſe, Col 1.28.

Should be ſaved] viz. If they do what he commandeth: God doth not tie himſelf to cauſe them to do what he commandeth, that they may be ſaved.

And to come to the knowledge] The only way to ſalvation. Pray therefore that their eyes may be opened, Act. 26.18.
