SEV Biblia, Chapter 6:12
Y entendí que Dios no lo había enviado, sino que hablaba aquella profecía contra mí, porque Tobías y Sanbalat le habían alquilado por salario.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 12. And, lo, I perceived that God had not sent him , etc.] Because he advised to that which was against the cause of God and true religion: but that he pronounced the prophecy against me ; for by fleeing, as he advised, it would seem that he was guilty of the crimes of rebellion and treason he was charged with; and leaving the people, as they would in course break up, he himself could not be long in safety, no, not in the temple: for Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him ; this he found out afterwards, on purpose to intimidate him, and take such measures as that thereby he would lose his character and his influence.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 10-14 - The greatest mischief our enemies can do us, is, to frighten us from our duty, and to lead us to do what is sinful. Let us never decline good work, never do a bad one. We ought to try all advice, and to reject what is contrary to the word of God. Every man should study to be consistent. Should I, a professed Christian, called to be a saint, child of God, a member of Christ, a temple of the Holy Ghost, should be covetous, sensual, proud, or envious? Should I yield to impatience discontent, or anger? Should I be slothful, unbelieving, or unmerciful What effects will such conduct have upon others? All that God has don for us, or by us, or given to us, should lead us to watchfulness self-denial, and diligence. Next to the sinfulness of sin, we shoul dread the scandal.
