الصفحة 223 - For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices, which they offered year by year continually, make the comers thereunto perfect.
الصفحة 226 - And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying ; Blessing and honour and glory and power be unto him that sitteth upon the throne and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
الصفحة 170 - Moral precepts are precepts, the reasons of which we see: positive precepts are precepts, the reasons of which we do not see.* Moral duties arise out of the nature of the case itself, prior to external command. Positive duties do not arise out of the nature of the case, but from external command ; nor would they be duties at all, were it not for such command, received from him whose creatures and subjects we are.
الصفحة 287 - It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant To raise up the tribes of Jacob, And to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, That thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.
الصفحة 48 - Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
الصفحة 228 - How and in what particular way it had this efficacy, there are not wanting persons who have endeavoured to explain : but I do not find that the Scripture has explained it.
