3:3. The watchmen—Of nominal Zion; the clergy.
That go about the city—Christendom, Babylon.
Found me—Drew me under their influence.
To whom I said—Having become deeply interested in the subject of the Lord's promised Return.
Saw ye Him—Have you discerned the fact of the Bridegroom's Presence?
Whom my soul loveth—There was no reply, for the reason that “His watchmen are blind; they are all ignorant: they are all dumb dogs; they cannot bark.”
3:4. It was but a little—“He is not far from us.”
That I passed from them—Became unbound, unfettered.
But I found Him—Was made acquainted with the proofs of the Parousia.
Whom my soul loveth—We ought to live for Him who died for us.
