2 Peter 2:22
_ _ But — You need not wonder at the event; for dogs and swine they were before, and dogs and swine they will continue. They “scarcely” (2 Peter 2:18) have escaped from their filthy folly, when they again are entangled in it. Then they seduce others who have in like manner “for a little time escaped from them that live in error” (2 Peter 2:18). Peter often quoted Proverbs in his First Epistle (1 Peter 1:7; 1 Peter 2:17; 1 Peter 4:8, 1 Peter 4:18); another proof that both Epistles come from the same writer. |
2 Peter 2:22
The dog, the sow — Such are all men in the sight of God before they receive his grace, and after they have made shipwreck of the faith. Proverbs 26:11. |
- The dog:
Proverbs 26:11 As a dog returneth to his vomit, [so] a fool returneth to his folly.
