Commentary on this verse  

By Henry MacLagan

Verse 20. But this state (being one of transition) is liable to recede from good, and therefore although it follows the Lord, it also looks back to former states of life as to affection and thought, thus to evils and falsities, the desire to obey the Lord predominating, and hence there is fluctuation preceding conjunction.
