grander representative, the Son of God, and he sets us free, not by our honouring the law, but by his doing so. He came under the law by his birth, and being found as a man loaded with the guilt of all his people, he was visited with its penalty. The law lifts its bloody axe, and it smites our glorious Head that we may go free. It is the Son of God that keeps the law by dying, the just for the unjust. “The soul that sinneth, it shall die,”—there is death demanded, and in Christ death is presented.
