'"There are two scriptures in the Old Testament that I seem to show plainly that God is propitiated by the sacrifice of Christ.
In i Chron. 21:16-27, when David had made his offering at Oman's threshing-floor, " the Lord commanded the angel (whose sword was stretched out over Jerusalem), and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof."
And in Gen. 8:20 :" Noah builded an altar unto the Lord, and offered burnt offerings on the altar; and the Lord smelled a sweet savor; and the Lord said in His heart, 'I will not again curse the ground.'"
All Scripture agrees with this, but these two scenes are impressively pointed. E.S.L.
