Deuteronomy 3:27

Study

       

27 Climb to the top of Pisgah, and lift up your eyes to the west, the north, the south, and the east, and see it with your eyes; for you shall not cross this Jordan.

Commentarius in hunc versum  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 27. It is given, however, to the mind in that state to elevate itself by the intellect, and to perceive the states to which the soul will afterwards come, from its imperfect affections and its obscure perceptions of truth to a full and clear light, and a perfect state of love; this is perceived with the understanding, but the soul cannot at present enter into these more interior states.
