Matthew Henry
They that die by famine die by inches.
Matthew Henry
ThanksGiving is good but ThanksLiving is better.
Matthew Henry
In all God's providences, it is good to compare His word and His works together for we shall find a beautiful harmony between them, and that they mutually illustrate each other.
Matthew Henry
It is not enough for us to be where God is worshipped, if we do not ourselves worship him.

Matthew Henry
