not the high priest, nor the civil magistrate, but the Prince Messiah: or rather "to the prince in Israel" ^F4; what the people shall do in this way, they shall do it as to the Lord, freely and cordially, and for his honour and glory; and he will take it as done to himself; see ( Matthew 10:41 Matthew 10:42 ) .
