Bible Commentary for Exodus 19:6

Wesley's Notes for Exodus 19:6


19:6 A kingdom of priests, a holy nation - All the Israelites, if compared with other people, were priests unto God, so near were they to him, so much employed in his immediate service, and such intimate communion they had with him. The tendency of the laws given them was to distinguish them from others, and engage them for God as a holy nation. Thus all believers are, through Christ, made to our God kings and priests, #Rev 1:6|, a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, #1Pet 2:9|.
