How doth, or how ought, the reading of this verse make a truly awakened soul long for the everlasting sabbath of heaven; yea, even for Jesus, the very sabbath of the soul. Observe, Reader! the door of a house is the place of the porter, a menial servant; and there it was Jesus had his ear digged, as it may be read, Psalms 40:6, alluding to the custom of a servant in the house of Israel, that had his ears bored at the door of the house, when, out of love of his master, he would not go out free. Exodus 21:5-6. Oh! thou supreme Pattern of everything that is lovely and gracious; thou precious Jesus! didst thou take upon thee the form of a servant, that we might be free forever? John 8:36; Lord, may I love the doors of thine house, and there dwell forever!

10 For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
