A Commentary on the Book of Psalms #229424

But first, like the bride who loveth to look upon the face 0 the bride groom, and to hear of all his excellence, that she may with the more glad ness give herself into his bosom, and rejoice in his embrace; the church doth well love and much delight to hear it sard of him by Jehovah, I will declare the decree, Thou art mine only Son; this day have I begot ten thee. Thou wast set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was from everlasting to everlasting thou art God, the same who did appoint the foundation of the earth, establish the clouds above, and strengthen the fountains of the deep; of old thou hast laid the foundations of t e earth, and the heavens are the work of thy hand. And how her glory rejoiceth to hear, that for the love of her that he might wash her in his blood, and present her without a tor wrinkle in the pres ence of his Father, he became a partaker of cab and blood, and was formed in fashion as a man, yea, took upon him the form of a servant.
