27 And the word of Jehovah continued to occur to me, saying: ² “And as for you, O son of man, raise up concerning Tyre a dirge,

³ and you must say to Tyre,

Promises and/or sacred secrets

Gal 3:16

Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He does not say, "And to seeds," as referring to many, but rather to one, "And to your seed," that is, Christ.

GEB -> Study Notes on 3:16

2 Pet. 3:9.

Jehovah has offered us something that no one else can offer. It is something immensely appealing and precious, yet it can be neither purchased nor earned. What he offers is the gift of everlasting life. (John 3:16) Jehovah looks forward to the time when he will establish Paradise on earth. After all, he is a lover of righteousness and justice. (Ps. 33:5) It gives him no pleasure to gaze upon a world indifferent or hostile to his righteous principles, a world that spurns his authority and abuses his people. Yet, there are good reasons why he has not yet acted to remove Satan’s wicked system of things. Those reasons have to do with moral issues involving his sovereignty. In settling these issues, Jehovah displays a particularly appealing quality, a quality that many today lack—patience. w 2/1/06 1, 2
