| Geneva Study Bible He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. Wesley's Notes 24:5 The blessing - Grace and glory, and all other good things. Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary 5. righteousness-the rewards which God bestows on His people, or the grace to secure those rewards as well as the result. Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary 24:1-6 We ourselves are not our own; our bodies, our souls, are not. Even those of the children of men are God's, who know him not, nor own their relation to him. A soul that knows and considers its own nature, and that it must live for ever, when it has viewed the earth and the fulness thereof, will sit down unsatisfied. It will think of ascending toward God, and will ask, What shall I do, that I may abide in that happy, holy place, where he makes his people holy and happy? We make nothing of religion, if we do not make heart-work of it. We can only be cleansed from our sins, and renewed unto holiness, by the blood of Christ and the washing of the Holy Ghost. Thus we become his people; thus we receive blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of our salvation. God's peculiar people shall be made truly and for ever happy. Where God gives righteousness, he designs salvation. Those that are made meet for heaven, shall be brought safe to heaven, and will find what they have been seeking. |
