In accordance with it, in propor tion to it. Here again there is a tacit admission of the greatness of his guilt, as requiring infinite mercy to forgive it. Abundance, increase, multitude. See above, on Ps. V.' 8 Compassions, tender mercies, a term expressive of the warmest and tenderest affections. See above, on Ps. Xviii. 2 Blot out, erase, from thy remembrance. The allusion is probably to a record or regis ter of crimes, or to the cancelling of accounts, although the former seems to agree better with ancient and oriental usage. Compare N um. V. 23. Transgressions, or with closer adherence to the primary etymological import of the term, revolts, apostasies. See above, on Ps. Xix. 14 xxxii. 1.
