And therefore it was imputed to him for
righteousness.
] Not because his faith was strong, and he had a full assurance
of it, but because it was right, resting on the promise of God,
and relying upon his power and faithfulness to perform it; for
though the righteousness of faith is not imputed to any sort of
believers, not to mere nominal ones, yet to all such as have true
faith, though it may be but weak; for faith, as to nature, kind,
and object, though not as to degree, is the same in all true
believers, and the same righteousness is imputed to one as to
another.
