Acts7:53
53 Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it.
Or Ministery of Angels: The commandments were published from them Ministerially, or the Son of God, (called an Angel ver. 35.) accompanied with the Militia of Heaven, (for 'tis a Military Metaphor) did in the midst of that glorious retinue give the Law, Deut. 33.2. Psalm 68.8. Gal. 3.13, 19.
They transgressed the Law, tho so gloriously delivered by Angels, and therefore it was no wonder if they despised the Gospel, that was published by so mean and contemptible Ministers.
Marginal references: Exod. 20.1.
