For in that he died, &c.— Dr. Doddridge translates and paraphrases the passage thus: "For whereas he died, he died once for all, as a sacrifice for sin, to atone the injured justice of God, and repair the honours of his violated law: and as he liveth he liveth to God for ever; his immortal life is entirely appropriated and devoted to his service; wherein we ought to make it our constant care to imitate his example." See chap. Romans 8:17. Galatians 2:20. 1 Peter 2:21; 1 Peter 4:1.
