Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

Christ's sacrifice being accepted, the saints shall feast upon the sacrifice, as, under the law, upon the peace-offerings, and so partake of the altar: The meek shall eat and be satisfied, eat of the bread of life, feed with an appetite upon the doctrine of Christ's mediation, which is meat and drink to the soul that knows its own nature and case.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Satisfied - This is doubtless to be understood, of those spiritual blessings, that grace and peace, and comfort, which all believing souls have in the sense of God's love, the pardon of their sins, and the influences of God's spirit.

John Wesley (NT Notes)· Explanatory Notes upon the Bible, 1765evangelical
