“He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their chains in pieces.
Oh that men would praise the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men!
For He has broken the gates of brass and cut the bars of iron in two.” Psalm 107:14-16.
"The deliverance here intended is one which is brought to us by redemption—and comes by the way of the great Sacrifice on Calvary. We are redeemed with the precious blood of Him who surrendered His own liberty for our sakes and consented to be bound and crucified that He might set us free. My grateful heart seems to hear Him saying again, as He did in the Garden of Gethsemane, “If you seek Me, let these go their way.” His consenting to be bound brought freedom to all those who put their trust in Him." - C.H. Spurgeon
