John Trapp on Romans 2:4

Verſe 4. [non-Latin text not transcribed]. The goodneſſe of God] Gr. His native goodneſſe, ready to be imploied to the behoof and benefit of the creature, Tit. 3.4. Now as the beam of the Sunne ſhining on fire, doth diſcourage the burning of that; ſo the ſhining of Gods mercies on us ſhould diſhearten and extinguiſh luſt in us. This is ſo equall, and needfull a duty, that Peter picks this flower out of Pauls garden, as one of the choiſeſt, and urgeth it upon thoſe to whom he writes, 2 Pet, 3.15.
