Thomas Boston, Works, 1:312-313:

This is ground of humility and admiration to the elect of God, and shows them to what they owe the difference that is between them and others, even to free grace. Those who are passed by were as eligible as those that were chosen. Though God hath dignified them, and raised them to be heirs of glory, yet they were heirs of wrath, and no better than others by nature, Eph. 2:3. Well may they say with David in another case, “Lord, what am I, or what is my father’s house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?” All were in the same corrupt mass, and nothing but free grace made the difference between the elected and the non elected.
