We must be doing good; the good which the Lord our God requires, and which will turn to a good account. 3. We must do it well, in a right manner, and for a right end. 4. We must learn to do well, we must take pains to get the knowledge of our duty, be inquisitive concerning it, in care about it; and accustom ourselves to it, that we may readily turn our hands to our work, and become masters of this holy art of doing well ( M. Henry.) Parallel Verses KJV: Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil; |
