The mercy likewise that ensued in giving them water from the Rock, is most frequently celebrated, Deut. 8.15. Psal. 78.15, 16. Psal. 105.41. Neh. 9.15. Now all this was done, to bring them to attend and enquire diligently into the kernel, the pearl of this mercy, whose outward shell was so undeservedly free, and so deservedly precious. For in this Rock of Horeb lay hid a spiritual Rock, as our Apostle tells us, 1 Cor. 10.4. even Christ the Son of God, who being smitten with the Rod of Moses, or the stroke and curse of the Law, administered by him, gave out waters of life freely unto all that thirst and come unto him.
