Again, in Isaiah liii. 3. it is said, _We hid, as it were, our faces from him_, speaking of our Saviour; but in the margin, it is, _He hid, as it were, his face from us_; which implies, that, as he bore our grief, so he was charged with our guilt; and accordingly is represented, as having his face covered, as an emblem hereof; or else it denotes his concealing or veiling his glory, as he, who was really in the form of God, appeared in the form of a servant. Again, in Jer. xlii. 20. the prophet reproving the people, says, _Ye dissembled in your hearts, when ye sent me unto the Lord your God, saying, Pray for us_; but, in the margin, it is, _You have used deceit against your souls_; which contains a farther illustration of the sense of the words; as it not only denotes their hypocrisy, but the consequence thereof, to wit, their destruction; which agrees very well with the threatning denounced in verse 22. that they should _die by the sword, the famine, and by the pestilence_. And the same prophet in chap. x. 14. speaking of idolaters, says, _Every man is brutish in his knowlege_; but in the margin it is, _Every man is more brutish than to know_; in which their stupidity is rather assigned to their ignorance than their knowlege. Again, in Zechariah xii. 5. it is said in the text, _The governors of Judah shall say in their hearts, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the Lord of hosts their God_; but in the margin it is, _The governors of Judah shall say, There is strength to me, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, in the Lord of hosts_; and this reading seems more agreeable to what follows; which contains several promises of deliverance and salvation, which God would work for the inhabitants of Jerusalem; So that we are not to suppose them saying, _Jerusalem shall be our strength_; but, the _Lord of hosts_, who is a safe-guard to it, as well as to the governors of Judah. Again, in Acts xvii. 23. it is said in the text, _As I passed by, and beheld your devotions_; but, in the margin it is, _The gods whom you worship_, or, the things ye pay divine honour to; which is very agreeable to the context, and the design of the apostle therein. Again, in chap. xxii. 29. it is said in the text, _that they departed from him, which should have examined him_, meaning Paul, in the margin it is, _tortured him_; which is agreeable to the Roman custom of scourging, and thereby tormenting one that was under examination for supposed crimes. Again, in Gal. i. 14. the apostle says, _I profited in the Jews religion, above many my equals_; in the margin it is, _My equals in years_; which seems much more agreeable to the apostle’s design. Again, in Heb. ii. 7. it is said in the text, _Thou madest him_, viz. our Saviour, _a little lower than the angels_; in the margin it is, _A little while inferior to them_; as referring to his state of humiliation; which continued comparatively, but a little while.
