He hath also stablished them for ever and ever, etc.] The angels are made immortal, and shall never die; and they are confirmed in their state of happiness by Christ, and shall always continue in it; the hosts of heaven being created by him, consist in him, and will remain as long as the world does; hence the duration and never-failing state of other things, even of good men and their felicity, are expressed by them; (see <197205>Psalm 72:5,7 89:36,37); he hath made a decree which shall not pass; concerning those creatures and their duration, which shall never pass away, or be frustrated or made void; but shall always continue and have its sure and certain effect; (see <243135> Jeremiah 31:35,36 33:25); and is true of every decree of God, which is eternal and not frustrable, and is always fulfilled, (<231427>Isaiah 14:27 25:1 46:10).
