2 Peter 3:17

2 Peter 3:17. Ye therefore, beloved,— Beza observes, that St. Peter does not say here, "Abstain from these obscure scriptures; choose out only certain chapters; leave the rest either to the more learned, or the more curious; expect new revelations, and suffer the tares in the mean time to grow;—for who art thou that judgest?"
