He begins with his appeal to God, whom he knew to be a just Judge and therefore desires to be dealt with according to law: "Judge me; examine me; prove me; try me; even my reins and my heart."II. Then he assigns

Leviticus 16:2 — la más profunda reverencia y la debida preparación. Para que parezca que el gran tema de este capítulo, la ordenanza del chivo expiatorio, tipificaba la muerte y resurrección de Cristo, y la expiación así realizada, me permito referirme a  Hebreos 9:7 y Hebreos 9:24, que transcribiré aquí, porque es una clave para todo este capítulo. "En el segundo [tabernáculo] entraba el sumo sacerdote solo una vez cada año, no sin sangre, que ofrecía por sí mismo y por los errores del pueblo. El Espíritu Santo

Ecclesiastes overview — appear principally in the books of Ezra and Daniel.Calovius has on the other hand, not with so much success as he imagined, argued against Grotius for the purity of the language.Mr. G. Zirkel of Wurtzburgh published an examination of this book in 1792, in which he endeavors to prove: -1. That the style of Ecclesiastes is that of the later Hebrew writers, as appears by the Chaldaisms, Syriasms, and Hellenisms that occur in it.2. That it may have been written between the years 380 and 130 before Jesus

Isaiah 2:13 — and the neighbouring countries. The learned seem now to be perfectly well agreed that Tarshish is Tartessus, a city of Spain, at the mouth of the river Baetis, whence the Phoenicians, who first opened this trade, brought silver and gold, (Jeremiah 10:9; Ezekiel 27:12,) in which that country then abounded; and, pursuing their voyage still farther to the Cassiterides, (Bogart, Canaan, i. c. 39; Huet, Hist. de Commerce, p. 194,) the islands of Scilly and Cornwall, they brought from thence lead and tin.Tarshish

Isaiah 61:1 — CHAPTER LXI The subject of the preceding chapter is continued in this; and to give it the greater solemnity, the Messiah is introduced describing his character and office, and confirming the large promises made before, 1-9. In consequence of this the Jewish Church is introduced, praising God for the honour done her by her restoration to favour, and by to accession of the Gentiles, which is beautifully described by allusions to the rich pontifical dress of the high priest;

Isaiah 61:1 — CAPÍTULO LXI El tema del capítulo precedente continúa en éste; y para darle mayor solemnidad, se introduce al Mesías describiendo su carácter y oficio, y confirmando las grandes promesas hechas anteriormente, 1-9. En consecuencia, se presenta la Iglesia judía, alabando a Dios por el honor que se le ha hecho por su restauración a de los gentiles, lo que se describe bellamente con alusiones a la rica vestimenta pontifical del sumo sacerdote. Una feliz similitud

Jeremiah 18:6 — reject and destroy them; and act as this potter, make a new vessel out of that which at first did not succeed in his hands?It is generally supposed that St. Paul has made a very different use of this similitude from that mentioned above. See Romans 9:20, c. His words are, "Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?" To this every sensible and pious man will answer, Undoubtedly he has. But would any potter make an exceedingly

1 Corinthians 16:4 — que anuncian el Evangelio vivan del Evangelio, pero yo no he usado nada de esto; ni he escrito estas cosas para que se me haga así; porque más me valdría morir, que alguien anulara mi gloria, es decir, mis profesiones de desinterés'. ( 1 Corintios 9:14 ; 1 Corintios 9:15 ).

Joshua 4:9 — Verse Joshua 4:9. And Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of Jordan — It seems from this chapter that there were two sets of stones erected as a memorial of this great event; twelve at Gilgal, Joshua 4:20 and twelve in the bed of Jordan, Joshua 4:9. The twelve

Joshua 4:9 — Versículo Josué 4:9 . Y Josué erigió doce piedras en medio del Jordán.  Parece de este capítulo que se erigieron dos juegos de piedras como memorial de este gran evento; doce en Gilgal, Josué 4:20 y doce en el lecho del Jordán, Josué 4:9 . Las doce piedras en el lecho

Hebrews 9:23 — of the souls of those who have found redemption in his blood.2. Others think the body of Christ is intended, which is the tabernacle in which his Divinity dwelt and that this might be said to be purified by its own sacrifice, as he is said, John 17:19, to sanctify himself; that is, to consecrate himself unto God as a sin-offering for the redemption of man. 3. Others suppose the Church is intended, which he is to present to the Father without spot or wrinkle or any such thing. 4. As the entrance to

Hebrews 9:23 — que han encontrado la redención en su sangre. 2. Otros piensan que se refiere al cuerpo de Cristo, que es el tabernáculo en el que habitó su Divinidad, y que puede decirse que está purificado por su propio sacrificio, como se dice de él,  Juan 17:19 , que se santifica a sí mismo; es decir, que se consagra a Dios como ofrenda por el pecado para la redención del hombre. 3. Otros suponen que se trata de la Iglesia, que él ha de presentar al Padre sin mancha ni arruga ni nada parecido. 4. Como la entrada

Revelation 20:2 — Verse Revelation 20:2. The dragon — Revelation 12:9; Revelation 12:9.That old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan — He who is called the old serpent is the DEVIL-the calumniator, and SATAN-the opposer. He who supposes that the term old serpent here plainly proves that the creature that tempted
