36 Hoor Gij dan in den hemel, en vergeef de zonde van Uw knechten en van Uw volk Israel, als Gij hun zult geleerd hebben den goeden weg in denwelken zij wandelen zullen; en geef regen op Uw land, dat Gij Uw volk tot een erfenis gegeven hebt.

Explanation of 1 Kings 8:36

Napsal(a) Henry MacLagan

Verse 36. Then is that influx again received; remission follows both as to evil and error; the literal sense of the Word, which teaches charity, is received and obeyed; its interior truths are also received and conjoined with good; and man becomes an inheritor of angelic life, no longer acting from external truths and motives only.

The Lord created us to be separate from Himself, so that He could love us. He thus allows us to act contrary to His will -- to want what is evil and to believe what is false. When we accept the Lord, though -- by learning what's true and determining to live according to it -- we can let Him place inside us a love for what is good. That is our "inheritance.
