Bible Note: "He loves the church, which often goes by the name of the Zion; and therefore He has chosen and founded it, and took up His rest and residence in it; and He loves her gates, or public ordinances, and them that attend them; the work done by them, their prayers and praises, and exercise of graces, and every act of religious worship: and though He loves the dwellings of Jacob, the private habitations of His people, having fixed the bounds of them from eternity, and delighted in these habitable parts before they dwelt in them; though He loves the persons that dwell there, and what is done in them, their closet and family devotion yet He prefers public worship and ordinances to them, where He is more openly worshiped, and by more; and which makes for His manifestative glory: hence follow the words, Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God." --John Gill (1697-1771) |
