Verſe 18. That they do good] Not the richer the harder; as the Sun moveth ſloweſt, when it is at the higheſt in the Zodiack: or as the Moon, when it is fulleſt of light, gets furtheſt off from the Sun.
Rich in good works] This is to be rich in God, Luk. 12.21. When our works are good, Quoad fontem & quoad finem.
Ready to distribute]Diod. Sic.l. 1. A vertue much commended in the Kings of Egypt; practiſed by the Pythagoreans, Eſſenes; but eſpecially by thoſe primitive Chriſtians, Act. 4.
