Psalm 51:2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. I. THE EVILS FROM WHICH A TRUE PENITENT IMPLORES DELIVERANCE. Sin is imputed, it is communicated, and it is committed. II. THE NATURE OF THE DELIVERANCE WHICH THE PENITENT IMPLORES. The blessing of purification from the love and power of sin always accompanies deliverance from its guilt; and as these blessings are never separated, the one from the other, in a communication of grace, so are desires after them always united in the experience and prayers of penitent sinners. Is it not wisdom to submit to the means which are necessary for restoration to health, though those means may be, for a time, painful and distressing? (T. Biddulph, M. A.)
