Wherefore do ye spend money All your time, and strength, and cost; for that which is not bread For those things which can never nourish or satisfy you, such as worldly goods or pleasures. Hearken diligently unto me Unto my doctrine and counsel; and eat ye that which is good And not such things as, though they be called and seem to be good, yet really are evil and most pernicious to men. And let your soul delight itself, &c. In this pleasant food of gospel enjoyments. Hear, and your soul shall live Hearken attentively and obediently to my counsels, and your immortal souls shall not only be saved from perishing eternally, but shall be eternally blessed and happy. And I will make an everlasting covenant with you That everlasting covenant of grace and peace which I made with Abraham and his seed. The sure mercies of David Even that covenant which was made first with Abraham, and then with David, concerning those glorious and sure blessings which I have promised to my people; one, and the chief, of which was the giving Christ to die for their sins. David here seems to be put for Christ the son of David.
