2 Kings 16:15

Étudier

       

15 King Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying, "On the great altar burn the morning burnt offering, and the evening meal offering, and the king's burnt offering, and his meal offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their meal offering, and their drink offerings; and sprinkle on it all the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice; but the bronze altar shall be for me to inquire by."


L'explication  

Par Henry MacLagan

Verse 15. And self-love, influencing the falsity governing in the corrupted church, or man, determines that worship shall be merely external and ritualistic, as to states of affection in its brightness, and similar states in its obscurity; also as to states of the intellect bright and obscure; and as to the affections and intellect of the sensual man; also that purification by Divine Truth shall be merely external; and yet that there shall be all the appearance of genuine worship by the acknowledgment of the Lord.
