Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke
Verse 11. (They presented unto Him gifts). The people of the east never approach the presence of kings and great personages, without a present in their hands. The custom is often noticed in the Old Testament, and still prevails in the east, and in some of the newly discovered South Sea Islands.
Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke
Woe to that man who runs when God has not sent him and woe to him who refuses to run, or who ceases to run, when God has sent him.
Adam Clarke
