Spurgeon PS045

EXPOSITION.

Provided that the rebels had obeyed the voice of the last verse, they would now be crying,–“What shall we do to be saved?” And in the present verse, they are pointed to the _sacrifice_, and exhorted to _trust in the Lord_. When the Jew offered sacrifice righteously, that is, in a spiritual manner, he thereby set forth the Redeemer, the great sin-atoning Lamb; there is, therefore, the full gospel in this exhortation of the Psalmist. O sinners, flee ye to the sacrifices of Calvary, and there put your whole confidence and _trust_, for he who died for men is the LORD JEHOVAH.

HINTS TO PREACHERS.

Verse 5.–The nature of those sacrifices of righteousness which the Lord’s people are expected to offer.–^William Ford Vance, 1827.
