Verse 2
Reader! do mark the prominent features, which the Holy Ghost here gives, of your Redeemer: then turn to the original, as he appears in the Evangelists, and compare the striking likeness. How did Jesus appear when he was born in the streets of Bethlehem? Was there ever a more tender, a more exposed plan? And, do remark, that this growing up is said to have been before Jehovah. And as his obscure birth hath nothing attracting in it, so neither had his person: a root dry; a form of no comeliness. Precious Lord Jesus was this the state thou wert pleased to make choice of, in coming to seek and save thy people?
Be the first to react on this!
