Psalms65:4
Verſ. 4. Bleſſed is the man whom thou chooſeſt] Whom thou chooſeſt for thy love, and then loveſt him for thy choyſe.
And cauſeſt to approach unto thee] i. e. Effectually calleſt. Here Vocation is fetcht from the Fountain (as is alſo Juſtification in the former verſe) viz. Gods free election. See that golden chain, Rom. 8.30.
That he may dwell in thy Courts] viz. To hear thy Word, and partake of thine Ordinances. For our Saviour telleth the Jews, Hee that is of God, heareth Gods Words, yee therefore hear him not, becauſe yee are not of God, John 8.4. our Worſhip-ſcorners then have a black brand upon them.
We ſhall be ſatisfied] He maketh himſelf one of the number of Gods elect (as Paul alſo doth often) and there-hence concludeth to himſelf, and the reſt, a beatifical communion of all good things.
