Exodus 19:3

Thus shalt thou say

It is exceedingly important to observe:

  • (1) that Jehovah reminded the people that hitherto they had been the objects of His free grace;
  • (2) that the law is not proposed as a means of life, but as a means by which Israel might become "a peculiar treasure" and a "kingdom of priests";
  • (3) that the law was not imposed until it had been proposed and voluntarily accepted. The principle is stated in Galatians 5:1-4.
