"For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
For let not that man think,.... Imagine, conclude, or please himself with such thoughts, that he shall receive anything from the Lord; wisdom, or anything else, he is seeking after;
for wanting faith, he has nothing to receive with; faith is the grace, which receives the Lord Jesus Christ himself, and all grace from him; which receives a justifying righteousness, pardon of sin, adoption of children, and even the everlasting inheritance, at least, the right unto it; wherefore those who have not faith, as the wavering man, cannot receive any thing.
