9. he standeth —after having bounded over the intervening space like a roe. He often stands near when our unbelief hides Him from us ( Genesis 28:16 ; Revelation 3:14-20 ). His usual way; long promised and expected; sudden at last: so, in visiting the second temple ( Malachi 3:1 ); so at Pentecost ( Acts 2:1 ; Acts 2:2 ); so in visiting an individual soul, Zaccheus ( Luke 19:5 ; Luke 19:6 ; John 3:8 ); and so, at the second coming ( Matthew 24:48 ; Matthew 24:50 ; 2 Peter 3:4 ; 2 Peter 3:10 ). So it shall be at His second coming ( 1 Thessalonians 5:2 ; 1 Thessalonians 5:3 ). wall —over the cope of which He is first seen; next, He looks through (not forth; for He is outside) at the windows, glancing suddenly and stealthily (not as English Version, "showing Himself") through the lattice. The prophecies, types, c., were lattice glimpses of Him to the Old Testament Church, in spite of the wall of separation which sin had raised ( 1 Thessalonians 5:3- : ) clearer glimpses were given by John Baptist, but not unclouded ( John 1:26 ). The legal wall of partition was not to be removed until His death ( Ephesians 2:14 ; Ephesians 2:15 ; Hebrews 10:20 ). Even now, He is only seen by faith, through the windows of His Word and the lattice of ordinances and sacraments ( Luke 24:35 ; John 14:21 ); not full vision ( John 14:21- : ); an incentive to our looking for His second coming ( Isaiah 33:17 ; Titus 2:13 ). return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-10" class="com-number"
