Rom. 9:4. "Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the Law, and the service of God, and the promises." The same glory is doubtless here meant, whose departure was lamented when the ark was taken, when it was said by the true friends of Israel, The glory is departed from Israel, meaning the ark and the cloud of glory in which God appeared above upon it, or rather Jesus Christ, with respect to these tokens of His friendly presence.

Rom. 9:22-23
