11. Who knoweth thine anger? Moses
saw people dying all around him: he lived among funerals, and was overwhelmed
at the terrible results of the divine displeasure. He felt that none could
measure the might of the Lord’s wrath. Even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath. Good people dread that wrath beyond conception, but they never
ascribe too much terror to it: bad people are dreadfully convulsed when they awake
to a sense of it, for it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of an angry
God. Who is able to stand against this justly angry God? Be it ours to submit
ourselves as dying sinners to this eternal God, who can, even at this moment,
command us to the dust, and thence to hell.
