Forgiveness in Scripture is called a lifting off of sin, Job 7. Lord, why dost thou not lift off my sin? so the Hebrew word carries it; it is a Metaphor taken from a weary man that goes under a burden, he is ready to sink under it, now another man comes and lifts off this burden; even so doth the great God, when the burden of sin is ready to sink the Conscience. God lifts off the burden of sin from the Conscience, and lays it on Christs shoulder, and he carries it; now he that hath his burden thus carried, it is well with him howsoever things go.
