I should not have noticed this word, but with a view to speak of God's highest and best gift. The sweetest feature in the gospel is, that Christ, the great Author of it, is a gift of God; yea, the greatest and most important of all gifts, and including every other. For where Jesus is, there all blessings abound. Where he is not, it matters not what else there is. Hence Paul exclaims, "Now thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift!" (2 Corinthians 9:15)
