Rest unto Your Souls

By Arthur L. Manous

CHRIST says: "Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls." Matt. 11:29. See also Jer. 6:16.
What are we to understand by the term "souls" in this verse? Perhaps this question may best be answered by another translation of the verse thus:
"Take My yoke on you, and be taught by Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and your lives will find a resting-place."—Emphatic Diaglott.
"Those who take Christ at His word, and surrender their souls to His keeping, their lives to His ordering, will find peace and quietude."—"Desire of Ages," chapter 34.
