No Others Professed to Keep Commandments—The ancient Jewish church were the highly favored people of God, brought out of Egypt and acknowledged as His own peculiar treasure. The many and exceeding great and precious promises to them as a people, were the hope and confidence of the Jewish church. Herein they trusted, and believed their salvation sure. No other people professed to be governed by the commandments of God (Redemption: or the First Advent of Christ, 35).{1BC 1105.6}

Ingen andre bekender sig til at holde budene. - Den gamle jødiske menighed var Guds højt foretrukne folk, kom ud af Ægypten og anerkendt som Hans egen særlige rigdom. De mange overmådelig store og dyrebare løfter til dem som et folk, var den jødiske menigheds håb og tillid. Heri stolede og troede de på at deres frelse var sikker. Ingen andre bekendende folk bekendte at blive styret af Guds bud (Genløsningen, eller Kristi første komme, s. 35).
