Appendixes To The Companion Bible

 
"Thy Salvation". Genesis 49:18.
This Is Appendix 36 From The Companion Bible.

   "I have waited for Thy salvation, O Jehovah."

   These words are repeated three times (and in three different ways) by every pious Jew, morning and evening.

   In the note on Genesis 49:18 it is pointed out that by the Figure of Speech Metonymy (of Effect), see Appendix 6, "salvation" is put for Him Who brings it. The meaning is beautifully put, thus, in the Jerusalem Targum :-

   "Not to the salvation wrought by Gideon, the son of Joash, does my soul look, for it is temporal. Not to the salvation wrought by Samson, the son of Manoah, is my longing directed, for it is transient: but to the salvation, the completion of which Thou hast promised, by Thy everlasting Word, to bring to Thy people the descendants of Israel."

   "To Thy salvation, O Jehovah, to the salvation of Messiah the son of David, Who will one day redeem Israel and bring her back from the dispersion, to that salvation my soul looks forward; for Thy salvation is an everlasting salvation"

Watchman News hosts several archives of Bible studies such as these by the Watchmen Bible Study Group. Although we are not affiliated with this or numerous others using the term Watchman in their names, we believe it important keep the full content intact for research and analysis for Bible students of future generations. We keep it available as good members of the body of Christ, for Christian unity. We do so on a non-profit basis. As the original owner's site went offline years ago, no one has paid to keep it online but us. We pray and hope such ministries are more careful about having successors to carry on their works in the future. Although we do not agree on every point of doctrine, we still believe it very important to not edit any of the original contents. Our own statements of beliefs are found at www.CelticOrthodoxy.com, and for example in the book "7th Day Sabbath in the Orthodox Church" etc.
