The New Testament Benediction

The benediction is placed at the end of this chapter on the Nazarite vow. It's only verses 22 through 27, but it happens to be one of those old testament sections that has probably exerted more of an influence on the worship of the church than hardly any other old testament selection. The way that it's structured is it's almost like a little, it's almost poetry. Of course, the most obvious element of the structure is the threefold repetition of the divine name.
