Exodus 25:1-9 — had redeemed the Israelites from bondage. He had made a covenant with them and had given them laws. He had promised, on condition of their obedience, to accept them as His own “peculiar treasure,” as “a kingdom of priests and an holy nation” Exodus 19:5-6. And now He was ready visibly to testify that He made his abode with them. He claimed to have a dwelling for Himself, which was to be in external form a tent of goats’ hair Exodus 19:4, to take its place among their own tents, and formed out of

Psalms 16 overview — evidencia del verdadero apego a Dios. Expresa la profunda convicción de que el que ama a Dios no se quedará en la tumba, y no se le dejará ver "corrupción" permanente, ni perecer en la tumba, para siempre.

(2) Una declaración de su apego a Dios, Salmo 16:2, fundada en parte en su conciencia de tal apego Salmo 16:2, y en parte en el hecho de que realmente amaba a

Hosea 1:10 — disgusto está la dispersión de los dolores y el cierre prometido de la oscuridad". Lo que Dios quita, lo reemplaza con usura; cosas del tiempo por cosas eternas; bienes externos y regalos y privilegios internos; Un reino terrenal por el cielo. Tanto Pedro 1 Pedro 2:1 como Pablo Romanos 9:25 nos dicen que esta profecía ya se cumple, en Cristo, en los de Israel, que eran el verdadero Israel, o de los gentiles, a quienes la promesa se hizo Génesis 22:18, "En tu Semilla serán bendecidas todas las naciones",

Amos 2:9 — Estos, como una de las tribus cananeas más poderosas, están en Moisés para todos. Moisés, al ensayarles la bondad de Dios y su reincidencia, les recuerda cómo había dicho: "Han venido al monte de los amorreos, que el Señor su Dios les da" Deuteronomio 1:2; y que ellos, usando esta misma palabra, dijeron: "Debido a que el Señor nos odia, nos sacó de la tierra de Egipto para entregarnos en manos de los amorreos para destruirnos" Deuteronomio 1:27. El anciano Joshua, al ensayar las grandes obras de Dios

Luke 8:4-15 — See the parable of the sower explained in the notes at Matthew 13:1-23.

Romans 9:33 — As it is written - see Isaiah 8:14; Isaiah 28:16. The quotation here is made up of both these passages, and contains the substance of both; compare also Psa 118:22; 1 Peter 2:6.Behold I lay in Sion - Mount Sion was the hill or eminence in Jerusalem, over-against Mount Moriah, on which

Romans 9:33 — Como está escrito - vea Isaías 8:14; Isaías 28:16. La cita aquí se compone de ambos pasajes y contiene la sustancia de ambos; compare también Psa 118: 22 ; 1 Pedro 2:6. He aquí que me acosté en Sion - El Monte Sion era la colina o la eminencia en Jerusalén, sobre el Monte Moriah,

1 Corinthians 5:9 — considerable diversity of opinion in regard to this expression. A large number of commentators as Chrysostom, Theodoret, Oecumenius, most of the Latin commentators, and nearly all the Dutch commentators suppose that this refers to the same Epistle (our 1 Corinthians), and that the apostle means to say that in the former part of this Epistle 1 Corinthians 5:2 he had given them this direction. And in support of this interpretation they say that τῇ tē here is used for ταυτῇ tautē, and appeal to the

Colossians 1:12 — Giving thanks to the Father - This is another mode by which we may “walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing” Colossians 1:10; to wit, by rendering appropriate thanks to God for his mercy. The particular point which the apostle here says demanded thanksgiving was, that they had been called from the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of light. This had been done by the special

1 Timothy 4:1 — means to say that this was a revelation “then” made to him, or whether it was a well-understood thing as taught by the Holy Spirit. He himself elsewhere refers to this same prophecy, and John also more than once mentions it; compare 2 Thessalonians 2:0; 1 John 2:18; Revelation 20:1-15. From 2 Thessalonians 2:5, it would seem that this was a truth which had before been communicated to the apostle Paul, and that he had dwelt on it when he preached the gospel in Thessalonica. There is no improbability,

1 Peter 1:22 — Seeing ye have purified your souls - Greek, “Having purified your souls.” The apostles were never afraid of referring to human agency as having an important part in saving the soul Compare 1 Corinthians 4:15. No one is made pure without personal intention or effort - any more than one becomes accomplished or learned without personal exertion. One of the leading effects of the agency of the Holy Spirit is to excite us to make efforts for

Revelation 19:15 — Y de su boca sale una espada afilada - Vea las notas en Apocalipsis 1:16. En ese lugar, la espada parece ser un emblema de sus palabras o doctrinas, como penetrando los corazones de las personas; aquí es el emblema de una obra de destrucción realizada en sus enemigos. Que con él debería golpear a las naciones - Las

Revelation 6:3 — Y cuando abrió el segundo sello - Para revelar otra porción del volumen. Vea las notas en Apocalipsis 5:1. Escuché a la segunda bestia decir - La segunda bestia era como un ternero o un buey. Vea las notas en Apocalipsis 4:7. No se puede suponer que haya un significado especial en el hecho de que la segunda bestia se dirigió al vidente al abrir el segundo
