26. And--another quotation from
Ho 1:10.
it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them,
Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children--"called
sons"
of the living God--The expression, "in the place where . . . there,"
seems designed only to give greater emphasis to the gracious change here
announced, from divine exclusion to divine admission to the privileges
of the people of God.
