wisdome] Though all true wisdome be from God, yet here more particularly we are to understand that spirituall wisdome, whereby Christians may be enabled rightly to judge of the Authour, causes and fruits of afflictions; for want whereof many of Gods children have murmured against God and fainted under them. Job 3:1. Psalms 73:2. Jeremiah 12:1. & Jeremiah 20:8. Unto this Christians are directed, Heb. 12. 5,-12. let him ask of God] Matthew 7:7. & Matthew 21:22. Luke 11:9. liberally] The originall word in the first notation thereof signifieth simply, or singly, or sincerely; that is, without any mixture of by-respects, or without hypocrisie; so 2 Corinthians 1:12. & 2 Corinthians 11:3. Ephesians 6:5. Colossians 3:22. But because those who give with a single and sincere heart, give liberally according to their abilitie: hence consequently, or in a secondary sense, it signifieth liberally. So Romans 12:8. 2 Corinthians 8:2. & 2 Corinthians 9:11. 13. upbraideth] When he gives to those who aske; though he doth those who unthankfully abuse his blessings not walking worthy of them, Esa. 1. 2, &c. & 5. 1, &c. Jeremiah 2:4.
