10. For every beast of the forest is mine. How
could they imagine that the Most High God, possessor of heaven and earth, had
need of beasts, when all the countless hordes that find shelter in a thousand
forests and wildernesses belong to him? And the cattle upon a thousandhills. Not only the wild beasts, but the tamer creatures are all his own.
What a slight is here put even upon sacrifices of divine appointment when
wrongly viewed as in themselves pleasing to God! How much more is this clear
under the Gospel, when it is so much more plainly revealed that “God is a Spirit, and they that worship him must worship him in spirit
and in truth”?
