Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sermons and Other Practical Works of the Late Reverend Ralph Erskine, A. M., Dunfermline, Vol. 5: Consisting of Above One Hundred and Fifty Sermons, Besides Poetical Pieces; Also, Fourteen Sermons on Prayer The Pharisees had asked Christ several questions concerning the law, and the greater precept of the law and now it was fit that Christ should ask them a question concerning the great promise of the gospel they were so taken up with the law, they had no thought of the gospel; they thought so much of Moses, that they had no thought of Christ; therefore, says he, What think ye of Christ? Many are so full of the law that they forget him, who is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. Here is a question to check the pride of the legalists, What think ye of Christ? There is a depth in every place of scripture, which, though it seems to be very plain to the carnal eye, yet the Spiritual depth thereof cannot be founded without the help of the Spirit of God there is also a great depth in this question; angels cannot sound the depth thereof, they pry into it, and cannot think enough of Christ; they can never think too much of him and what shall men say in answer to it, What think ye of Christ? To divide this text too critically, would, I suppose, he the way to confuse it, but I think every word hath an emphasis therein.
