Look down from heaven— In this excellent and pious prayer of the first-fruits of the converted Jews, they intreat God for his grace and mercy, to look down with an eye of compassion upon them. "Where is thy love and concern for thy people, they add, and the power thou usedst to exert for their deliverance? Where are thy tender mercies which thou formerly shewedst towards them?" The arguments here are used, and to be understood, humano more (after the manner of men). See Vitringa.
