the highest strain

English to Spanish Other Religion ancient book
God is eternal, therefore he lives for ever to reward the godly. [...] The saints shall bathe themselves in the rivers of divine pleasure; and these rivers can never be dried up. Psa 16: 2: 'At thy right hand are pleasures for evermore.’ This is the Elah, ***the highest strain*** in the apostle's rhetoric. I Thess 4: I7. 'Ever with the Lord.' There is peace without trouble, ease without pain, glory without end, 'ever with the Lord.’ Let this comfort the saints in all their troubles; their sufferings are but short, but their reward is eternal.

"Esto es el Elah , *** lo que más resuena*** en la retórica del apóstol" ... No special reason, I just think is more poetic....
