[1] passion: as used here, an emotion outside of one’s own voluntary control. As God is immutable and brings all things to pass, He is also impassible—not subject to external forces, pain, suffering or involuntary emotions. Far from being cold or unemotional, His most holy and genuine emotions are perfectly governed by His infinite wisdom, knowledge, holiness, perfection and steadfast, unchanging character. Since God is eternally all-knowing, our sin offends Him eternally and Christ’s perfect obedience pleases Him eternally. Scriptural references to God’s “repentance” are anthropomorphic descriptions by which God condescends to speak to our level of understanding. Such anthropomorphic usages are common in Scripture.
[2] long-suffering: in this context, patiently enduring continual sin against Him
[3] iniquity: gross injustice, wickedness
[4] transgression: disobedience of law, command, or duty
[5] Sin refers to an offense against God by disobeying Him, even deep in one’s heart. Any harm to man is secondary in seriousness.
[6] Any created thing, not limited to an animal or human.
[7] Various versions have fountain or foundation. The Latin translation (Schaff, Creeds of Christendom) has fons, meaning source, fountain or principal cause. As the use of fountain in the sense of source is uncommon today, the editor translates source. Note: The WCF original was in English; the Latin translation was made in 1656.
[8] contingent: depending upon something uncertain or unknown
[9] Godhead: divine nature or essence of God
[10] The Trinity is an unfathomable mystery that defies earthly analogies; persons refers to different, distinct, divine modes of being, against whom the concept of the individual human person is a very limited analogy.
