Luke 1:76-79
_ _ Here are the dying echoes of this song; and very beautiful are these closing notes — like the setting sun, shorn indeed of its noontide radiance, but skirting the horizon with a wavy and quivering light — as of molten gold — on which the eye delights to gaze, till it disappears from the view. The song passes not here from Christ to John, but only from Christ direct to Christ as heralded by His forerunner.
_ _ thou child — not “my son” — this child’s relation to himself being lost in his relation to a Greater than either.
_ _ prophet of the Highest; for thou shalt go before him — that is, “the Highest.” As “the Most High” is an epithet in Scripture only of the supreme God, it is inconceivable that inspiration should apply this term, as here undeniably, to Christ, unless He were “God over all blessed for ever” (Romans 9:5).
Luke 1:77
_ _ to give knowledge of salvation — To sound the note of a needed and provided “salvation” was the noble office of John, above all that preceded him; as it is that of all subsequent ministers of Christ; but infinitely loftier was it to be the “Salvation” itself (Luke 1:69 and Luke 2:30).
_ _ by the remission of ... sins — This stamps at once the spiritual nature of the salvation here intended, and explains Luke 1:71, Luke 1:74. |
Luke 1:77
To give knowledge of salvation by the remission of sins — The knowledge of the remission of our sins being the grand instrument of present and eternal salvation, Hebrews 8:11-12. But the immediate sense of the words seems to be, to preach to them the Gospel doctrine of salvation by the remission of their sins. |
Luke 1:77
To (n) give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the (o) remission of their sins,
(n) Open the way.
(o) Forgiveness of sins is the means by which God saves us; (Romans 4:7). |
