Malachi 3:2
_ _ (Malachi 4:1; Revelation 6:16, Revelation 6:17). The Messiah would come, not, as they expected, to flatter the theocratic nation’s prejudices, but to subject their principles to the fiery test of His heart-searching truth (Matthew 3:10-12), and to destroy Jerusalem and the theocracy after they had rejected Him. His mission is here regarded as a whole from the first to the second advent: the process of refining and separating the godly from the ungodly beginning during Christ’s stay on earth, going on ever since, and about to continue till the final separation (Matthew 25:31-46). The refining process, whereby a third of the Jews is refined as silver of its dross, while two-thirds perish, is described, Zechariah 13:8, Zechariah 13:9 (compare Isaiah 1:25). |
Malachi 3:2
Abide — Who shall be able to stand under the weight of those crosses which in that day, will fall on all sorts of men? The day — This day was from his preaching, 'till the utter destruction of Jerusalem, about seventy years after the birth of Christ. A refiner's fire — Some are like metals, which nothing but a fierce fire can purge, such fire shall the troubles of these days be. Fuller's soap — As boiling waters, into which, spotted cloaths are thrown, and as the rubbing of them with soap; so that day will prove to all, a day of great trial, to purge and refine. |
Malachi 3:2
But who (d) may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he [is] like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap:
(d) He shows that the hypocrites who wish so much for the Lord's coming will not remain when he draws near: for he will consume them, and purge his own and make them clean. |
