Gen_22:14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it is said [to] this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen.
Ver. 14. In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen.] God will be found of his in fit time and place. "To him belong the issues of death". {Psa_68:20} None can take us out of his hands. He knows how to deliver his, and when; as Peter spake feelingly. {2Pe_2:9 Act_12:11}
And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh.] To perpetuate the memory of God’s mercy; not of his own obedience, which yet was notable, and not to be matched again. If we honour God, we shall have honour: that is a bargain of God’s own making. {1Sa_2:31}
