5. Let Him therefore stand in your midst,
that the heavens, which declare the glory of God, Ps. xix.
[xviii.] 1. may be opened to you, that you may do
His will, and work His works. He who sees Jesus, to him are the
heavens opened as they were opened to Stephen, when he said:
“Behold I see the heavens opened and Jesus standing at the right
hand of God.” Acts vii. 56. Jesus was
standing as his advocate, He was standing as though anxious, that He
might help His athlete Stephen in his conflict, He was standing as
though ready to crown His martyr.
