9. But —(it has happened) as it is written. Eye hath not seen, c.—ALFORD translates, "The things which eye saw not . . . the things which God prepared . . . to us God revealed through His Spirit." Thus, however, the "but" of :- is ignored. Rather construe, as ESTIUS, "('We speak,' supplied from :- ), things which eye saw not (heretofore), . . . things which God prepared . . . But God revealed them to us," &c. The quotation is not a verbatim one, but an inspired exposition of the "wisdom" ( 1 Corinthians 2:6 , from Isaiah 64:4 ).

" entered —literally, "come up into the heart." A Hebraism (compare, 1 Corinthians 2:10- : , Margin ). In 1 Corinthians 2:10- : it is "Prepared (literally, 'will do') for him that waiteth for Him" here, "for them that love Him."
