Titus 1:15

15 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.

Ver. 15. Unto the pure all things, &c. ] This Piscator in Mar 14:3 holds a sufficient warrant for us to use, Ne forte, and other heathen expressions; like as the apostles used χρηματιζεσθαι χρηματισμος &c., abused by the Greeks to signify their wicked and devilish oracles. But Pasor is utterly against it. (Prefat. ad Lexic.)

Is nothing pure ] Their own table is a snare to them, yea, God’s table. The saints are kept at hard commons, but have their keeping of freecost: the wicked have larger cares, but pay sweetly.

Conscience is defiled ] To wit, with sins, and so can no more judge it than a man can discern colours in a foul and soiled glass.
