SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:21

para hacer heredar a mis amigos el ser, y que yo llene sus tesoros.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 21. That I may cause those that
love me to inherit substance , etc.] Substantial blessings, blessings indeed, as all spiritual ones are; and substantial grace, as every grace is; and substantial communion with God and Christ, which is a real thing, and had in the way of righteousness; also substantial happiness hereafter, as eternal life is; which being expressed by “substance”, or “that which is” f224 , as the word used signifies, denotes the reality of it; it being not only actually promised, prepared, and laid up for the saints, but is what is known by them now, and of which they have the earnest and pledge; as also the solidity of it, being opposed to the vain and shadowy things of this life; as well as the riches, valuableness, and continuance of it; it is enduring substance, which cannot be wasted nor taken away; which is in its own nature incorruptible, and the saints will always continue to enjoy it. God himself may be meant, who is most eminently çy , that which is, a self-existent Being, and the Being of beings, essence itself, and of whom the saints are heirs, and who will be their portion now and for ever, ( Romans 8:17 Psalm 73:26); and such that shall enjoy this inheritance are those that “love” Christ; to them it is promised, for them it is prepared, and to them it will be given, ( James 1:12) ( 1 Corinthians 2:9 2 Timothy 4:8), not that their love to Christ is the meritorious cause of so valuable a blessing; but this describes the persons that shall have it, and points out a proper disposition for it, without which none would be fit to enjoy it; and besides there is a connection between grace and glory; to which may be added, that this shows that Christ does not love in word only, saying, “I love them that love me”, ( Proverbs 8:17); but in deed also; and how much he esteems the love of his people; and it is designed to encourage the faith and hope of weak believers, who, though they do not so strongly believe in Christ, yet truly love him. And be it further observed, that this substance is enjoyed by way of inheritance; it is not purchased, nor acquired, but bequeathed and given to the children of God by their heavenly Father, and comes to them through the death of Christ the testator, and is for ever, as inheritances are; and so Aben Ezra observes, that it signifies an eternal possession; and I will fill their treasures ; the treasures of their hearts, ( Matthew 12:35); Christ now fills their understandings with spiritual knowledge, their souls with grace, their minds with peace and joy, and their hearts with food and gladness; and hereafter he will fill them to full satisfaction with knowledge, holiness, and joy, and will be all in all to them.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 12-21 -
Wisdom, here is Christ, in whom are all the treasures of wisdom an knowledge; it is Christ in the word, and Christ in the heart; not onl Christ revealed to us, but Christ revealed in us. All prudence an skill are from the Lord. Through the redemption of Christ's preciou blood, the riches of his grace abound in all wisdom and prudence. Ma found out many inventions for ruin; God found one for our recovery. He hates pride and arrogance, evil ways and froward conversation; thes render men unwilling to hear his humbling, awakening, holy instructions. True religion gives men the best counsel in all difficul cases, and helps to make their way plain. His wisdom makes all trul happy who receive it in the love of Christ Jesus. Seek him early, see him earnestly, seek him before any thing else. Christ never said, See in vain. Those who love Christ, are such as have seen his loveliness and have had his love shed abroad in their hearts; therefore they ar happy. They shall be happy in this world, or in that which is beyon compare better. Wealth gotten by vanity will soon be diminished, but that which is well got, will wear well; and that which is well spen upon works of piety and charity, will be lasting. If they have no riches and honour in this world, they shall have that which i infinitely better. They shall be happy in the grace of God. Christ, by his Spirit, guides believers into all truth, and so leads them in the way of righteousness; and they walk after the Spirit. Also, they shal be happy in the glory of God hereafter. In Wisdom's promises, believer have goods laid up, not for days and years, but for eternity; her frui therefore is better than gold.
