Psalm 49:7

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:

For what shall a man be profited, though, the whole world, he gain, and, his life, he forfeit? Or what shall a man give, in exchange for his life?

Just as, the Son of Man, came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom instead of many.

Who gave himself a ransom in behalf of all, - the testimony, in its own fit times:

Knowing that, Not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, have ye been redeemed from your unmeaning behaviour paternally handed down,

If I made gold my stay, and, to precious metal, said, My confidence!

The substance of a rich man, is his strong city, and like a high wall, in his imagination.

For what can a man, give, in exchange for his life?
