"Scholiasts by their copious exposition of places pour out a vain overflow of
learning on passages plain and easy."
Locke.

"The obscurity has in many other places been occasioned by excessive brevity;
and this, which so perpetually occurs in St. Paul's Epistles, may, I think, be best
attributed to the Apostle's limited power of expression, his thoughts being crampt
by a foreign and difficult language. In such a case, no mere translation can do
justice to the sense."
Bloomfield's Crit. Digest.
