VERSE (4) -
Ge 1:31 De 32:4

SEV Biblia, Chapter 4:4

Porque todo lo que Dios cre es bueno, y nada hay que desechar, tomndose con accin de gracias;

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Timothy 4:4

Verse 4. For every creature of
God is good] That is: Every creature which God has made for man's nourishment is good for that purpose, and to be thankfully received whenever necessary for the support of human life; and nothing of that sort is at any time to be refused, ouden apoblhton, rejected or despised. We find a saying very similar to this in Lucian's Timon: outoi apoblhta eisi dwra ta para diov. The gifts which are from Jove ought not to be DESPISED. This appears to have been a proverbial saying among the heathens.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 4. For every creature of
God is good , etc.] For food; and should be taken and used for that purpose, at all times, without distinction; even every creature which is made for food, and which is easy to be discerned by men: and nothing to be refused ; or rejected as common and unclean, or to be abstained from at certain times: if it be received with thanksgiving : if not, persons are very ungrateful, and very unworthy of such favours; and it would be just in God to withhold them from them; and this they may expect at his hands, who reject them with contempt, or receive them with unthankfulness, or abstain front them in a religious way he never enjoined.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-5 - The
Holy Spirit, both in the Old and the New Testament, spoke of general turning from the faith of Christ, and the pure worship of God This should come during the Christian dispensation, for those ar called the latter days. False teachers forbid as evil what God ha allowed, and command as a duty what he has left indifferent. We fin exercise for watchfulness and self-denial, in attending to the requirements of God's law, without being tasked to imaginary duties which reject what he has allowed. But nothing justifies an intemperat or improper use of things; and nothing will be good to us, unless we seek by prayer for the Lord's blessing upon it.
