What does Jeremiah 33:22 mean?
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand
of
the sea measured
As the stars of heaven are innumerable, and the sand of the sea
immeasurable: so will I multiply the seed of David my
servant;
the Messiah; the son and antitype of David; and who is often
called by his name; and as the son of David is the servant of the
Lord, his spiritual seed are meant, which shall endure for ever;
and in Gospel times, especially in the latter part of them, shall
be very numerous; see ( Psalms 89:29
Psalms
89:36 ) ; and the Levites that minister unto
me;
meaning the same as before; not ministers of the Gospel, for they
never were, or will be, so numerous as here expressed; but true
believers in Christ, who are all priests unto God, and minister
in holy things, offering up the spiritual sacrifices of prayer
and praise through Christ: these Levites are the same with the
seed of David, or Christ, in whom the kingdom and the priesthood
are united.
