John Trapp on 2 Corinthians 9:6

Verſe 6. [non-Latin text not transcribed] Which ſoweth bountifully] Gr. That ſoweth in bleſſings; alluding to Ezek. 34.26. Eccleſ. 11.1. Cast thy bread upon the water, that is, upon fat and fertile places, loca irrigua. A Metaphor from ſeedſmen, who eat not all, ſell not all, but ſow ſome: ſo ſhould we ſow that we have upon the backs and bellies of the poor, ſow more of this ſeed in Gods bleſſed boſome, the fruit whereof we are ſure to reap in our greateſt need.
