SCRIPTURE

"And I will set my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall not abhor you." — Leviticus 26:11 (ASV)

And I will set my tabernacle among you. —Better, And I will set my dwelling-place among you. (See Leviticus 15:31.) Not only will God bless them with these material blessings, but will permanently abide with them in the sanctuary erected in their midst.

My soul shall not abhor you. —That is, God has no aversion to them; does not regard it below His dignity to sojourn amongst them, and to show them His favour.
