Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Our Lord´s Ministry: The Second Year But, on the other hand, St. Chrysostom, Cyril, and most others, suppose it to be the Pentecost. And there is the same difference of opinion among later writers: Ludolphus and Maldonatus take it for Pentecost; Bishop Taylor for the Passover. In either case it serves to mark the coming in of the Second Year. As Christ, who kept the Law for our sakes, went up to Jerusalem for the feasts, at which they who were under the law were required to appear before God, so must these festivals be fulfilled in us, not only by the observations of place and season, but more generally, in some extensive and spiritual sense, without the limits of time or place; as it is said, "from one new moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship;" the Passover, which is the passing out of Egypt, by our affections passing from this world to the land of promise, and so being with Christ in His resurrection; the Pentecost, which commemorated the giving out of the Law, must be kept by us by universal obedience to the law of God as written in our hearts by the Spirit descending at Pentecost; and the Feast of Tabernacles, by our living "as strangers and pilgrims upon earth," as they who are abiding in tents under the overshadowing boughs and palm-branches of the Gospel, having, as St. Paul says of himself, "no certain dwelling-place," but looking for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
