Ver. 12 Thou shall seek them, and shalt not find them They not existing, or being fled into holes and corners, to rocks and mountains, to hide themselves from the wrath of the Lamb, ( Revelation 6:15-17 ) : even them that contended with thee; or, "the men of thy contention" {p}; who contended with them, not by words and arguments, but by severe persecutions, striving thereby to hinder the progress of the Gospel, and to root Christianity out of the world: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought: or, "the men of thy war" F17; that proclaimed and carried on war against the Christians, in order to destroy them utterly; yet they, and all their efforts, came to nothing, the Gospel prevailed, and Paganism was utterly abolished; which came to pass in Constantine's time, at the opening of the sixth seal, ( Revelation 6:12-14 ) which is a proper comment on this text. FOOTNOTES:
10
No temas, que yo estoy contigo; no desmayes, que yo soy tu Dios, que te esfuerzo; siempre te ayudaré, siempre te sustentaré con la diestra de mi justicia
11
He aquí que todos los que se enojan contra ti, se avergonzarán y serán confusos; serán como nada; perecerán, los que contienden contigo
12
Mirarás por ellos, y no los hallarás. Los que tienen contienda contigo, serán como nada; y los que contigo tienen pendencia, como cosa que no es
13
Porque yo, el SEÑOR, soy tu Dios, que te sostiene de tu mano derecha, y te dice: No temas, yo te ayudaré
14
No temas, gusano de Jacob, muertos de Israel; yo te socorreré, dice el SEÑOR, y tu Redentor el Santo de Israel
