Jehovah's
rest in His fore-ordained counsels in spite of Israel's
unbelief
After all this unbelief of
the people, when God had declared that the earth should
be filled with His glory, by the cutting off of the
rebellious congregation, and when one might have supposed
they had forfeited the land for ever, it is perfectly
beautiful, in chapter 15, to see the Lord returning into
the perfect rest of His fore-ordained counsels, and of
His immutable being, and giving instructions relative to
the time when the people shall have entered the land He
has given them. It speaks of the offerings of
righteousness they are invited to bring to Him of their
free-will, and of the wine of joy which was to accompany
these offerings; and as this is grace, the love of God
reaches out beyond Israel, and, bringing the stranger
near to His people, He makes one law for both. The
firstfruits belong to Him. The sins of ignorance are
forgiven by means of the sacrifice required by the
perfectness of the ways of God. The sin committed
presumptuously alone brings destruction. God orders them
to put upon the fringe of the borders of their garments a
riband of blue, that they may remember His commandments,
and be kept from that which would render them profane.
The heavenly principle must enter into the minutest
details of life, even into those that are nearest to the
earth, if we wish to escape the serious evils which bring
down the judgment of God. The introduction of the
stranger in this chapter is of the highest interest, as a
testimony to grace. But we have not, as yet, seen the
final apostasy which brings down the judgment at the very
moment when it is accomplished.
