Deuteronomy 15:1,2

I call upon the Reader in a very particular manner in the opening of this chapter, to remember the motto which I have so often endeavored to bring to his recollection, that Moses wrote of CHRIST; for here JESUS is evidently preached; and if the HOLY GHOST shall be mercifully pleased to reveal him to the Reader's view, he may and will discover, so much of the LORD CHRIST in this chapter, as will prove to him, that the law is our schoolmaster unto CHRIST. Let the Reader observe, in the account of this year of release, that it is called the LORD'S release. And what is the release of poor insolvent debtors to the laws of GOD, when by sin they are rendered totally incapable of paying what they owe both to the law and justice of GOD, and they are through the infinite mercy of GOD'S covenant love in JESUS, justified from all things, and though bond sinners, are set at happy liberty in CHRIST JESUS; what is such a deliverance and freedom, but the LORD'S release - GOD'S acceptable year of salvation? Oh! thou dear and precious Redeemer! who doth not, or who will not see thee in thy gracious character, when thou didst declare that the year of thy redeemed was come, when thou camest to set at liberty them that were bruised, and to let the oppressed go free? Luke 4:18.
