“Sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high” (v. 3). Unspeakably blessed is this. The One who descended into such unfathomable depths of shame, who humbled Himself and became “obedient unto death, even the death of the cross,” has been highly exalted above all principality and power, and dominion, and every name which is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come. All-important is it, too, to mark carefully the connection between these two wondrous statements: “when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.” We cannot rightly think of the God-man as where He now is, without realizing that the very circumstance of His being there, shows, in itself, that “our sins” are put away for ever. The present possession of glory by the Mediator is the conclusive evidence that my sins are put away. What blessed connection is there, then between our peace of soul, and His glory! (Arthur W.
