VERS. 4.
I drew them with cords of a man, with bonds of love.
This Verse is a great Verse, and it will be very hard to pass over this in an Expository way only.
THis Verse is a great Verse, and it will be very hard to pass over this in an Expository way only.
I drew them with cords of a man, with bonds of love.
Here's a fourth or fifth expression of Gods love,; for there was two in the former Verse, Taught them to go, and healed them. Now here's the fifth, I drew them with cords of a man, with bonds of love. God still aggravates his mercy that they might see their sin. As there's no such way to be kindly humbled for sin, as to see it against much mercy. I drew them with cords of a man.
