Isaiah 1:25

turn . . . hand—not in wrath, but in grace (Zechariah 13:7), "upon thee," as Isaiah 1:26-27 show; contrasted with the enemies, of whom He will avenge Himself (Isaiah 1:24).

purely—literally, "as alkali purifies."

thy dross—not thy sins, but the sinful persons (Jeremiah 6:29); "enemies" (Isaiah 1:24); degenerate princes (see on Isaiah 1:22), intermingled with the elect "remnant" of grace.

tin—Hebrew, bedil, here the alloy of lead, tin, etc., separated by smelting from the silver. The pious Bishop Bedell took his motto from this.
