John Gill - Exposition

John Gill

He hath not dealt with us after our sins,....

Nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
