Further, that God dwelt even in their bodies in
spiritual wise διὰ τοῦ
νοῦ., the Apostle
tells us, saying, Know ye not that your bodies are the temples of
the Holy Spirit dwelling in you? 1 Cor. iii. 16., and The
Lord is that Spirit 2 Cor. iii. 17., and If any
one destroy the temple of God, him will God destroy 1 Cor. iii. 17.. Surely, then, we must ascribe
honour to the living temples of God, the living tabernacles of
God. These while they lived stood with confidence before
God.
