The Blessing Of Redemption

This chapter is rightly understood when viewed through the eyes of the church, of which Rebekah is a figure. She compels and directs the needy Sinner to Christ by whom they freely obtain the blessing of redemption from the Father. Christ came as the substitute of his people, and we enter into the presence of God, and are accepted of him, when we come in Christ our substitute. These gospel truths are what is revealed in this chapter.
