if thou		Num 14:19; Dan 9:18,19; Amo 7:2; Luk 23:34
blot me		Allusion may be made to the registry of births, in which those born of a particular tribe were entered in the list of their respective families under that tribe. This was the book of life; and when any died, his name might be considered as blotted out of this list. But as Moses addressed the LORD, he undoubtedly referred, by faith, to the book of God's remembrance.
