17. Quoted from :- , with the freedom of one inspired, who gives variations sanctioned by the Holy Spirit. be ye separate —"be separated" ( Hosea 4:17 ). touch not the unclean thing —rather, " anything unclean" ( 2 Corinthians 7:1 ; Micah 2:10 ). Touching is more polluting, as implying participation, than seeing. receive you —The Greek implies, "to myself"; as persons heretofore out of doors, but now admitted within ( Micah 2:10- : ). With this accords the clause, "Come out from among them," namely, so as to be received to me. So Micah 2:10- : , "I will accept you"; and Micah 2:10- : , "gather her that was driven out." "The intercourse of believers with the world should resemble that of angels, who, when they have been sent a message from heaven, discharge their office with the utmost promptness, and joyfully fly back home to the presence of God" ( 1 Corinthians 7:31 ; 1 Corinthians 5:9 ; 1 Corinthians 5:10 ). return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-18" class="com-number"
