| Psalms 131:8 | *Arise, O Lord, into thy resting place: thou and the ark, which thou hast sanctified. 2 Paralipomenon 6:41. | Sanctified. Hebrew, "ark of thy strength," which title proceeds from the sanctity of God, who resides there, 1 Kings 6:20. Our heart ought to be his resting place, Isaias 66:2. (Berthier) --- Leaving Silo, etc., come into thy temple, with the ark where thou sanctifiest thy people. He contemplates a higher mystery, the coming of the Messias, and his glorious resurrection. (Worthington) --- The same words were repeated, when the ark was removed in the desert, and by Solomon, as they might be also by the captives. (Calmet) |
