<p> "The Lord is there." Such is the name of the church in consequence of the presence of her glorious husband. (See Ezekiel 48:35) The prophet is speaking by the Spirit of prophecy, and looking into the days of the gospel; so that here is a mark to know the church by now, and which will be the character of Christ's church for ever. Without the Lord's presence there is no church: unless he be in the midst of us, we may go lean all our days. Lord! write JEHOVAH [[Shammah]] in our churches, in our hearts, in our houses, in our families! </p> | <p> "The Lord is there."

<p> (Heb. Yehovah' Sham'mah, יְהוָֹה שָׁמָּה, Jehovah is there; Sept. Κύριος ἐκεῖ,Vulg. Dominus ibidem, Auth. Vers. "The Lord is there"), the symbolical title conferred by Ezekiel upon the spiritual representation of Jerusalam seen by him in his vision (Ezekiel 48:35); under a figure evidently of like import with the description of the new Jerusalem in the [[Apocalypse]] (Revelation 21:3; Revelation 22:3). In the Old Test. prophecy it appears to have been a type of the [[Gospel]] Church, (See [[Immanuel]]), probably through a primary reference to the restoration of the [[Jewish]] metropolis after the Exile, and perhaps of the recovery of the [[Jews]] to Christianity, whereas the N.T. seer carries forward the symbol to the heavenly abode of the saints (comp. Jeremiah 33:16). </p> | <p> (Heb. Yehovah' Sham'mah, יְהוָֹה שָׁמָּה, Jehovah is there; Sept. Κύριος ἐκεῖ,Vulg. Dominus ibidem, Auth. Vers.
