i.e. Look upon thee with a cheerful and pleasant countenance, as one that is reconciled to thee, and well pleased with thee and thy offerings and services. See of this phrase Psa 4:6<\/span>; Pro 16:15<\/span>. To this is opposed the falling and the casting down of the countenance<\/I>, of which see Gen 4:5<\/span>,6<\/span>; Job 29:24<\/span>. Or, regard, protect, and help thee. Compare Psa 33:18<\/span>. <\/P> Peace with God, and with thy own conscience, and with all men, and all prosperity, which is comprehended under this word. <\/P> <\/p>\n And the Lord lift up his countenance upon thee<\/strong>,…. Show his face and favour, look cheerfully on his people, declare himself well pleased with them in Christ, and appear as smiling upon them through him, indulging them with visits of love, restoring to them the joys of his salvation, and upholding them with his free Spirit; and so causing them to walk pleasantly and comfortably in the ways of God, expecting eternal life and happiness, as God’s free gift through Christ:<\/p>\n and give thee peace<\/strong>; all outward needful prosperity, internal peace of mind, through the blood and righteousness of Christ, the peacemaker, and peace giver, and eternal peace in the world to come.<\/p>\n 26<\/strong>. <\/strong> Lift up his countenance <\/strong> Look at. This phrase is used by David to denote Jehovah’s deliverance of men out of their distresses. Psa 4:6<\/span>; Psa 21:6<\/span>; Psa 33:18<\/span>. <\/p>\n Give thee peace <\/strong> This is not a mere negative blessing, exemption from unrest and warfare; but, like the peace that Christ left as a legacy to believers, it includes all blessing of a positive kind, all well-being. See especially Joh 14:27<\/span>, note. The Targum adds, “peace in thy end.<\/p>\n And they shall bestow the benediction of my name upon the children of Israel, and I, by my word, will bless them.” The threefold structure of this benediction, copied by St. Paul in the so-called apostolic benediction, suggests that it was a designed adumbration of the Trinity so clearly revealed in the New Testament. The Fathers and early theologians urged this as a proof text of this profound Christian mystery, which rests upon abundant and undoubted scriptural proofs. As the threefold repetition expresses the thought as strongly as possible, so this triune blessing calls down the fulness of grace enfolded in that absolute Being, Jehovah, which in the Christian dispensation is unfolded through the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n “Eternal Sun of righteousness, <\/p>\n Display thy beams divine, <\/p>\n And cause the glories of thy face <\/p>\n Upon my heart to shine.<\/p>\n “<\/p>\n Lift up thy countenance serene,<\/p>\n And let thy happy child <\/p>\n Behold, without a cloud between, <\/p>\n The Godhead reconciled.” <\/em><\/strong> C. Wesley.<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n The LORD = Jehovah the Spirit, the witness of all blessing. Compare Heb 10:7, Heb 10:10, Heb 10:15. <\/p>\n countenance: same as “face” in Num 6:25, this is the token of Divine favour and delight. Compare Job 29:24. Psa 4:6, and the result Num 6:7. <\/p>\n peace = rest or security. <\/p>\n lift up: Psa 4:6, Psa 42:5, Psa 89:15, Act 2:28 <\/p>\n give thee: Psa 29:11, Isa 26:3, Isa 26:12, Isa 57:19, Mic 5:5, Luk 2:14, Joh 14:27, Joh 16:33, Joh 20:21, Joh 20:26, Act 10:36, Rom 5:1, Rom 15:13, Rom 15:33, Eph 2:14-17, Eph 6:23, Phi 4:7, 2Th 3:16 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: 1Sa 20:42 – Go in peace Job 33:26 – and he shall Psa 31:16 – Make Psa 80:3 – cause Psa 119:135 – Make Rom 2:10 – and peace<\/p>\n The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. i.e. Look upon thee with a cheerful and pleasant countenance, as one that is reconciled to thee, and well pleased with thee and thy offerings and services.
