13. Quoted from :- , Septuagint, "Make straight paths for thy feet." straight —that is, leading by a straight road to joy and grace ( Hebrews 12:1 ; Hebrews 12:2 ; Hebrews 12:15 ). Cease to "halt" between Judaism and Christianity [BENGEL]. paths —literally, "wheel tracks." Let your walk be so firm and so unanimous in the right direction that a plain track and "highway" may be thereby established for those who accompany and follow you, to perceive and walk in ( Isaiah 35:8 ) [ALFORD]. that which is lame —those "weak in the faith" ( Isaiah 35:8- : ), having still Judaizing prejudices. be turned out of the way — ( Proverbs 4:27 ); and, so missing the way, lose the prize of "the race" ( Proverbs 4:27- : ). rather he healed —Proper exercise of itself contributes to health; the habit of walking straight onward in the right way tends to healing. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-14" class="com-number"
