I, even I--the God against whom your sin is committed, and who alone can and will pardon. (Isa 44:22). for mine own sake-- (Isa 48:9, Isa 48:11). How abominable a thing sin is, since it is against such a God of grace! "Blotted out" is an image from an account-book, in which, when a debt is paid, the charge is cancelled or blotted out. not remember . . . sins-- (Jer 31:34).
