Vers. 15. I am the Lord, your holy one, the Creator of Israel, your King.
This verse contains in it only a description of him that speaks: first, showing §1how great his power & majesty is: secondly, §2with what affection he entertains his elect, and all to the end the promises before mentioned might have the greater weight.1 I call this verse therefore a seal to the former sentence, as if the people should have said, We hear much spoken of God, and of his promises; but I pray you what is this God? The Prophet answers, Even he that is your holy one, §1the creator of Israel, and your king.
