Questions

  • v. 51: How does v. 50 help explain this verse? What is of value? What is free? What is of no worth?
  • v. 52: What is the relation of this verse to the two that immediately precede it?
  • v. 52: "pray unto him continually by day, and give thanks unto his holy name by night. Do you think that the day or night reference is task specific? Meaning, that we should be more "pray-oriented" ("ask-oriented?") in the day and then be more "thankful-oriented" at night?


  • v. 53: In what sense is this a repetition of everything that has been said in the last several chapters? Does thinking in terms of types and shadows throw any light on this verse? Is Jacob drawing a parallel between covenants and condescensions? If so, what does that parallel teach us?
