acceptable A comparison with the passage quoted, Isaiah 61:1; Isaiah 61:2 affords an instance of the exquisite accuracy of Scripture. Jesus stopped at, "The acceptable year of the Lord," which is connected with the first advent and the dispensation of grace Genesis 3:15. (See Scofield "Genesis 3:15- :") , "the day of vengeance of our God" belongs to the second advent, Deuteronomy 30:3. See Scofield "Deuteronomy 30:3- :", and judgment.

Lord Jehovah. Isaiah 61:1; Isaiah 61:2.
