Ellen White & Bible Cross-Reference
Psalms 7:15
"He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made."
"The monarch, not loath to bring into contrast the power and acuteness of the opposing champions, and glad of an opportunity of humbling the pride of these haughty monks, bade the Romanists defend their cause by the Bible. This weapon, they well knew, would avail them little; imprisonment, torture, and the stake were arms which they better understood how to wield. Now the tables were turned, and they saw themselves about to fall into the pit into which they had hoped to plunge Berquin. In amazement they looked about them for some way of escape. GC 217.1"
The EGW passage describes the Romanists falling into a trap they set for Berquin. This directly parallels the imagery in Psalm 7:15 of someone digging a pit and falling into it themselves. The connection is clear and meaningful.
