Is near - So the scripture often speaks of things which are at a great distance, as if they were present or at hand, #Hab 2:3 James 5:8|,9 Rev 22:20. My righteousness - The same thing which he called salvation.
Thus saith the Lord, Keepe yee iudgement, and doe iustice: for my saluation is neere to come, and my righteousnesse to bee reuealed.
