he is convinced of all Rather, he is convinced by all, i.e. the prophets whose discourses he hears. The word signifies (1) to prove by argument, and comes therefore to be used (2) of the convictionproduced by argument. Cf. St John 16:8, where the word however is rendered reprove. For an instance of the word - of" in the sense of - by" see Shakspeare, Much Ado about Nothing, Act i. Scene 1, -I am loved ofall, only you excepted."

he is judged of all Rather, he is examined by all. The exhortations of the preacher place him, as it were, upon his trial. For the word here used see ch. 1Co 2:14-15, 1 Corinthians 4:3-4; 1 Corinthians 9:3 1 Corinthians 10:25; 1 Corinthians 10:27, and notes.
