A review.
Let us stop now for a moment and think before we proceed to the special subject of this chapter.

He came to save mankind—to teach them to know God and His commands, and to show them, further, how to keep the commands. And the wonderful thing about the mission of Jesus is that He was willing to suffer as no other man has ever suffered and finally to lay down His life in order to bring about the purpose of God.
