15 And count *See ver. 9the patience of our Lord as salvation, just as *[Acts 15:25] our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you *1 Cor. 3:10according to the wisdom given him, 16 as he does in all his letters when he speaks in them of these matters. *[Heb. 5:11] There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, *[Isa. 28:13]as they do the other Scriptures.
