God’s Word is most definitely to be revered, and those of us who preach and teach should fear and tremble at the thought of being guilty of taking the Words of God Almighty out of context.

Read more...(7) Submit yourselves therefore to God. (But) resist the devil.--The hardest advice of all, to a man reliant on himself, is submission to any, more especially to the Unknown. But, as a correlative to this, the Apostle shows where pride may become a stimulant for good, viz., in contest with the Evil One.

He will flee.--Or, he shall flee. 'The Devil,' says the strange old book called The Shepherd of Hermas, 'can tight, but he cannot conquer; if, therefore, thou dost withstand him, he will flee from thee, beaten and ashamed.'

The text is another proof of the personality of Satan; no amount of figures of speech could otherwise interpret it.

Verses 7-10.- Exhortation based on the preceding, quite in the style of a prophet of the Old Testament. Verse 7. - Read, but resist, etc. (ἀντίστητεδέ), א, A, B, Coptic, Vulgate.
