What does Ezekiel 20:41 mean?
I will accept you with your sweet savour
Their sins being expiated by the sacrifice of Christ, which is
unto God for a sweet smelling savour; and their persons being,
clothed with the robe of his righteousness, and the garments of
his salvation, all whose garments smell of myrrh, aloes, and
cassia; the Gospel being the savour of life unto life unto them;
and the savour of the knowledge of Christ being communicated to
them by it; and also the savour of his good ointments, the graces
of the Spirit, being imparted to them: when I bring you out
of the people, and gather you out of the countries
wherein ye have been scattered;
which will not only be locally and literally true of them, when
the Jews are converted, that they shall be collected together out
of all nations where they now are dispersed, and return to their
land; but spiritually also, they being effectually called out
from among the, men of the world, and to leave their former
company, customs, and lusts: and I will be sanctified in
you before the Heathen;
the Gentiles, Christian men; who will take notice of the power,
and grace, and goodness of God, in the conversion and restoration
of them, and praise and glorify him on account of it; and when he
will be visibly feared, served, and worshipped, in the midst of
them.
