By Tho: Goodvvin. B.D.	Goodwin, Thomas, 1600-1680.	1636 (1636)	STC 12041.3; ESTC S117577	96,573	431

say_v and_o thus_o far_o it_o be_v true_a that_o sin_v thus_o between_o interrupt_v and_o hinder_v the_o obtain_v our_o petition_n that_o answerable_o as_o we_o do_v thus_o dash_v and_o betray_v and_o undo_v our_o prayer_n it_o the_o answer_n to_o it_o so_o in_o a_o proportion_n we_o find_v in_o the_o way_n to_o our_o obtain_v the_o thing_n we_o pray_v for_o so_o many_o rub_v and_o difficulty_n do_v arise_v for_o as_o we_o lie_v block_n in_o god_n way_n come_v towards_o we_o to_o do_v we_o good_a so_o he_o in_o we_o therefore_o often_o when_o a_o business_n go_v prosperous_o on_o and_o we_o think_v we_o shall_v carry_v it_o come_v some_o accident_n between_o the_o cup_n and_o the_o lip_n that_o cast_v all_o behind_o hand_n again_o because_o answerable_o we_o deal_v with_o god_n for_o when_o we_o have_v pray_v and_o be_v encourage_v and_o in_o good_a hope_n then_o by_o some_o sin_n or_o other_o we_o spoil_v all_o and_o bereave_v ourselves_o of_o our_o expectation_n but_o yet_o this_o you_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o as_o in_o the_o end_n pray_v use_v to_o overcome_v sin_n in_o god_n child_n so_o also_o god_n in_o the_o end_n overcome_v difficulty_n and_o bring_v the_o

etc._n etc._n the_o main_a thing_n intend_v to_o be_v insist_v upon_o out_o of_o these_o word_n be_v dispatch_v yet_o that_o i_o may_v not_o leave_v so_o fair_a and_o fruitful_a a_o crop_n still_o stand_v upon_o the_o ground_n unreaped_a i_o will_v go_v on_o more_o brief_o to_o have_v in_o the_o rest_n of_o that_o harvest_n the_o text_n afford_v this_o psalm_n as_o be_v say_v be_v pen_v as_o a_o prophecy_n of_o and_o prayer_n for_o the_o return_n of_o god_n people_n out_o of_o the_o captivity_n of_o babylon_n and_o the_o settle_n and_o establishment_n of_o that_o church_n and_o state_n

when_o this_o prophecy_n otherwise_o have_v but_o a_o poor_a and_o slender_a accomplishment_n in_o regard_n of_o much_o outward_a glory_n or_o peace_n that_o that_o church_n enjoy_v and_o therefore_o the_o peace_n here_o speak_v of_o and_o promise_v for_o the_o present_a be_v to_o be_v extend_v largely_a than_o to_o outward_a prosperity_n or_o a_o happy_a issue_n out_o of_o that_o calamity_n even_o to_o speak_v peace_n to_o droop_a and_o weather-beaten_a conscience_n and_o according_o we_o find_v this_o kind_n of_o peace_n to_o have_v be_v special_o promise_v by_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n to_o the_o people_n at_o their_o return_n out_o of_o the_o captivity_n both_o in_o isaiah_n 48._o from_o 20._o to_o the_o end_n and_o isaiah_n the_o 57_o from_o the_o 14._o to_o the_o end_n there_o be_v many_o break_a heart_n that_o have_v want_v the_o light_n of_o god_n countenance_n long_o have_v be_v during_o the_o captivity_n banish_v from_o the_o ordinance_n of_o the_o temple_n hang_v up_o their_o harp_n mourn_v who_o thought_n be_v as_o if_o god_n have_v mean_v to_o destroy_v they_o as_o appear_v jer._n 29._o 11._o who_o afterward_o be_v refresh_v with_o in_o ward_n peace_n at_o the_o

this_o time_n handle_v the_o word_n in_o the_o word_n you_o have_v a_o discovery_n of_o god_n proceed_n in_o treat_v of_o peace_n or_o proclaim_v war_n with_o his_o people_n and_o subject_n obser_n 1_o 1._o you_o see_v that_o sometime_o god_n do_v not_o seake_a peace_n to_o his_o own_o child_n this_o be_v their_o state_n for_o the_o present_a when_o this_o psalm_n be_v pen_v he_o will_v speak_v peace_n therefore_o at_o present_a he_o do_v not_o yea_o it_o may_v incline_v we_o to_o think_v that_o god_n at_o present_a speak_v the_o contrary_a for_o the_o prophet_n speak_v this_o by_o faith_n as_o contrary_a to_o sense_n and_o present_a experience_n he_o believe_v god_n intend_v to_o come_v again_o to_o a_o treaty_n of_o peace_n though_o now_o he_o seem_v to_o have_v nothing_o but_o anger_n and_o blood_n and_o war_n in_o his_o look_n speech_n and_o action_n and_o to_o threaten_v and_o proclaim_v war_n and_o take_v up_o arm_n against_o they_o and_o thus_o god_n often_o deal_v with_o his_o own_o child_n whether_o a_o people_n or_o a_o particular_a man_n so_o with_o a_o nation_n esay_n 63._o 10._o they_o rebel_v and_o he_o fight_v against_o they_o so_o with_o a_o particular_a man_n god_n frown_v upon_o and_o rate_v his_o child_n ephraim_n and_o speak_v bitter_a thing_n against_o he_o it_o be_v the_o phrase_n use_v jer._n 31._o 20._o though_o yet_o ephraim_n be_v my_o pleasant_a child_n say_v he_o david_n have_v not_o a_o good_a word_n from_o he_o a_o long_a time_n psal_n 51._o 8._o make_v i_o to_o hear_v again_o of_o joy_n and_o gladness_n and_o psal_n 50_o 7._o hear_v oh_o my_o people_n and_o i_o will_v speak_v but_o not_o against_o they_o they_o may_v hope_v because_o he_o own_v they_o for_o his_o people_n hear_v oh_o israel_n and_o i_o will_v testify_v against_o thou_o and_o yet_o it_o follow_v i_o be_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n job_n say_v he_o do_v not_o speak_v only_o against_o he_o but_o also_o write_v bitter_a thing_n he_o write_v as_o

obser_n 2_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v some_o great_a reason_n for_o this_o they_o be_v his_o people_n which_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n that_o be_v intimate_v and_o may_v be_v observe_v out_o of_o these_o word_n namely_o the_o reason_n or_o move_a cause_n provoke_v god_n thus_o to_o interrupt_v the_o peace_n of_o his_o people_n they_o have_v fall_v into_o some_o gross_a folly_n or_o other_o some_o sinful_a inordinate_a disposition_n have_v be_v indulge_v unto_o and_o nourish_v in_o they_o which_o be_v usual_o though_o not_o always_o the_o cause_n of_o this_o his_o deal_n this_o be_v evident_a by_o this_o that_o the_o conclusion_n of_o their_o peace_n when_o it_o be_v make_v up_o again_o have_v this_o clause_n as_o the_o only_a article_n of_o reconciliation_n between_o they_o that_o they_o return_v no_o more_o to_o folly_n imply_v they_o have_v former_o run_v out_o into_o some_o inordinacy_n which_o to_o reduce_v they_o from_o god_n have_v take_v up_o arm_n against_o they_o and_o thereby_o teach_v they_o wisdom_n to_o take_v heed_n of_o lose_v and_o then_o buy_v peace_n at_o so_o dear_a a_o rate_n again_o and_o indeed_o all_o the_o quarrel_n that_o god_n have_v against_o a_o nation_n a_o particular_a place_n or_o person_n that_o belong_v to_o he_o do_v begin_v there_o they_o rebel_v and_o he_o fight_v against_o they_o esay_n 63._o 8._o for_o the_o iniquity_n
