Note.—All worship is properly with burnt-offerings—death comes in but it is a sweet savor, "He by the grace of God tasted death for everything." Sin-offerings come in for need by the bye.
It is almost equally wonderful that Man is gone up on high into the presence of God, and that God came down into the misery, sorrow, sin, and death of man. But both these marvelous things are the truth. What a place man, seen in this light, holds in the counsels of God.
God's promises are precepts to Himself—binding on Him, and as His to us, showing us what He is in Himself.
