Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Exodus 19:6

A kingdom of priests; so they are called in regard, 1. Of their exemption and separation from all the people of the world, as priests are taken out of the multitude of men. 2. Of their consecration to the worship and service of God, every subject of this kingdom being in some sort a priest to offer some kind of sacrifices to God, 3. Of their privileges, because God conferred upon them singular honour, safety, and immunity, and liberty of coming near to him, as priests among all nations have... read more

Scofield's Reference Notes - Exodus 19:5

if ye will obey (Cf) 1 Peter 2:9; Revelation 1:6; Revelation 5:10. What, under law, was condition, is under grace, freely given to every believer. The "if" of Exodus 19:5 is the essence of law as a method of divine dealing, and the fundamental reason why "the law made nothing perfect" ; Romans 8:3; Hebrews 7:18; Hebrews 7:19. The Abrahamic: (See Scofield "Hebrews 7:19- :") and New (See Scofield "Hebrews 7:19- :") covenants minister salvation and assurance because they impose but one condition,... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Exodus 19:1-25

Now in the third month, when the children of Israel were gone forth out of the land of Egypt, in the same day they came into the wilderness of Sinai. For they were departed from Rephidim, and they were come to the desert of Sinai and they had pitched in the wilderness; and there Israel encamped before the mount. And Moses went up unto God, and the Lord called unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel; You have see what I did... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Exodus 19:1-25

Exodus 19:1. The third month. On the fourteenth day at night the paschal lamb was slain. The two months contain sixty days, and on the fourth day of the third month the law was given, or the sixty fourth day of the Hebrew ecclesiastical year. From these we deduct the fourteen days before the passover, which leave exactly fifty days, the last of which was the day of Pentecost, a festival when the first fruits were offered, which lasted but one day. Thus a perfect type was given of the Lord’s... read more
