Is there not, under this precept, concerning trespasses in general, somewhat couched, respecting the special and particular atonement made for offences universally by our nearest kinsman, the LORD JESUS? As the recompense here, was ordered to be made by the kinsmen, so there, it was the kinsman who made restitution for all our injustice and trespasses. It was JESUS that put his name in the bond debt, to answer for all his people. He, and he only, could say: then I restored that which I took not away. Psalms 69:4. Dearest JESUS! praised be thy mercy, that I am not in the situation of the man, spoken of in this scripture, that hath no kinsman to recompense the trespass for him, for thou art my kinsman Redeemer! And I hope that I can say, and with the same well grounded assurance of faith, as Job did, I know that my (GOD) Redeemer liveth. Job 19:25.
