Geerhardus Vos tells us in a sermon on the beatitude about hungering and thirsting for righteousness:
The law in the hands of Jesus becomes alive with God's own personality. Majestic and authoritative, he is present in every commandment, so absolute in his demands, so observant of our conduct, so intent upon the outcome, that the thought of giving to him less than heart and soul and mind and strength in the product of our moral life ceases to be tolerable to ourselves (Grace and Glory, p. 33).
