Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

144. 'I do not put upon you another burden' signifies only so that they may be on their guard against them. This is because they confirm their untruths by reasonings derived from the natural man, and by some things out of the Word which they falsify, for by means of these they are able to seduce. They are like snakes in the grass that bite passers-by, or like concealed poisons that kill the unwary.
