John Trapp on Proverbs 1:29

Verſ. 29. For that they hated knowledge] Theſe are the worſt ſort of ſinners, verſ. 22. that not onely ſlight knowledge, but hate it, as theeves do a torch in the night;Herodot. curſe it, as Ethiopians do the ſcorching Sun; flie againſt it, as Batts do againſt the light. This is the condemnation, this is Hell afore-hand, John 3.20.

And did not chuſe] [non-Latin text not transcribed]. Refuſe the evil, Iſa. 7. and chuſe the good: chuſe the things that pleaſe God, Iſa. 56.4. that wherein hee delights, Iſa. 65.12. Such a choiſe made Moſes, Heb. 11.25. and Joſhuah, ch. 24.15. and Mary, Luk. 10.42.
