Isaiah 53:4 — ought rather to have esteemed Him on account of them; for thereby "Himself took OUR infirmities" (bodily diseases). So :- quotes it. In the Hebrew for "borne," or took, there is probably the double notion, He took on Himself vicariously (so Isaiah 53:5; Isaiah 53:6; Isaiah 53:8; Isaiah 53:12), and so He took away; His perfect humanity whereby He was bodily afflicted for us, and in all our afflictions (Isaiah 63:9; Hebrews 4:15) was the ground on which He cured the sick; so that Matthew's quotation

Malachi 4:2 — shall be the advent of the gladdening Sun, not of condemnation, but "of righteousness"; not destroying, but "healing" (Jeremiah 23:6). you that fear my name—The same as those in Malachi 3:16, who confessed God amidst abounding blasphemy (Isaiah 66:5; Matthew 10:32).

Matthew 4:22 — mention being made of James, whose call, if it then took place, would not likely have been passed over by his own brother. Thus far nearly all are agreed.

First here, the four are called separately, in pairs: in Luke, all together. Next, in Luke, after a glorious miracle: here, the one pair are casting their

Galatians 3:19 — the transgressions of it (Romans 7:7-9); to make men more fully conscious of their "sins," by being perceived as transgressions of the law, and so to make them long for the promised Saviour. This accords with Galatians 3:23; Galatians 3:24; Romans 4:15.

Revelation 1:6 — saints' kingdom. They are kings because they are priests: the priesthood is the continuous ground and legitimization of their kingship; they are kings in relation to man, priests in relation to God, serving Him day and night in His temple (Revelation 7:15; Revelation 5:10). The priest-kings shall rule, not in an external mechanical manner, but simply in virtue of what they are, by the power of attraction and conviction overcoming the heart [AUBERLEN]. priests—who have pre-eminently the privilege of
