Isaiah 55:10

Isa 55:10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:

Ver. 10. For as the rain cometh down. ] Simile omnium elegantissimum pariter et notissimum. Of the use and efficacy of fit similitudes: See Trapp on " Hos 12:10 "
