15 for Jehovah thy God is a jealous ùGod in thy midst; lest the anger of Jehovah thy God be kindled against thee, and he destroy thee from the face of the earth.

Ukuhlaziywa kwaleli vesi  

Ngu Alexander Payne

Verse 15. (For the Divine goodness and truth cannot exist within you in conjunction with evil and falsity), lest you shut out from yourself the influx of His goodness, and truth, and all that is of heaven within you perish from the interiors of your mind. [Note (verses 14-15).—The soul's conception of God forms the keystone of the religious character, and gives a colouring to all else, because it is the ideal after which the soul is itself consciously or unconsciously striving; hence the necessity of recognising the self-denying love, the desire to serve others at all costs, and the humility displayed in the Lord Jesus Christ as the most Divine characteristics; otherwise the soul will wander far from heaven by aiming at a wrong standard of perfection, and following after a Deity which is only a creature of its own imagination.]
