Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever. is the general glow of health resulting from the inter-related life of many members, each of whom occupies his appointed place in the spiritual order, and is possessed by the spirit of equity and truth. Peace is the spirit of communion, the genius of co-operation, the cohesion of many members into one pure and indissoluble whole. Now there can be no cohesion among the unclean. Dirt is always divisive. (J. H. Jowett, D. D.) Parallel Verses KJV: And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever. |
