their_o natural_a impiety_n by_o the_o which_o they_o have_v deserve_v everlasting_a punishment_n if_o god_n for_o christ_n sake_n have_v not_o forgive_v the_o same_o furthermore_o that_o they_o may_v be_v stir_v to_o the_o more_o ardency_n of_o prayer_n and_o faith_n so_o ionas_n also_o although_o he_o be_v so_o excellent_a a_o prophet_n that_o by_o his_o preach_n he_o restore_v the_o decay_a kingdom_n of_o israel_n as_o it_o be_v write_v in_o the_o fourteen_o chapter_n of_o the_o four_o book_n of_o king_n 14._o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o be_v now_o compass_v about_o with_o so_o great_a fear_n of_o death_n that_o in_o die_v he_o be_v more_o cowardly_a and_o effeminate_a than_o any_o common_a or_o rascal_n soldier_n but_o god_n will_v exercise_v he_o in_o this_o fear_n that_o he_o may_v know_v his_o own_o estate_n and_o so_o be_v stir_v the_o more_o earnest_o to_o pray_v wherefore_o let_v we_o not_o fear_v our_o salvation_n in_o the_o peril_n of_o death_n but_o rather_o let_v we_o have_v a_o sure_a trust_n have_v respect_n unto_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o have_v suffer_v the_o fear_n of_o death_n have_v deliver_v we_o from_o the_o malediction_n of_o this_o fear_n that_o although_o we_o be_v wrap_v and_o tangle_v in_o the_o same_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o be_v save_v for_o christ_n sake_n three_o ionas_n be_v not_o only_o vex_v with_o grievous_a fear_n of_o death_n but_o also_o despair_v of_o his_o corporal_a life_n i_o be_o cast_v say_v he_o out_o of_o thy_o sight_n that_o be_v thou_o have_v no_o more_o respect_n unto_o i_o to_o preserve_v i_o in_o this_o life_n neither_o shall_v i_o see_v any_o more_o thy_o holy_a temple_n that_o be_v i_o be_o constrain_v in_o this_o whale_n to_o die_v that_o i_o may_v go_v no_o more_o to_o the_o flock_n of_o thy_o church_n in_o thy_o temple_n what_o be_v the_o cause_n therefore_o that_o the_o prophet_n despair_v of_o his_o life_n where_o be_v his_o faith_n can_v he_o believe_v that_o god_o will_v save_v his_o soul_n and_o not_o believe_v also_o that_o he_o will_v preserve_v and_o save_v his_o body_n can_v not_o god_n raise_v up_o man_n from_o death_n to_o life_n how_o can_v he_o not_o than_o preserve_v those_o in_o life_n which_o be_v yet_o live_v do_v he_o not_o save_v the_o israelite_n in_o the_o red_a sea_n how_o than_o can_v he_o not_o save_v ionas_n in_o the_o whale_n belly_n these_o and_o such_o like_a may_v be_v object_v to_o the_o prophet_n despair_v of_o his_o corporal_a life_n in_o the_o whale_n belly_n but_o the_o prophet_n by_o this_o desperation_n show_v forth_o no_o part_n of_o wicked_a incredulity_n or_o distrust_n no_o more_o than_o paul_n do_v when_o he_o say_v we_o be_v grieve_v out_o of_o measure_n pass_v strength_n 1._o so_o great_o that_o we_o despair_v even_o of_o life_n also_o we_o receive_v a_o answer_n of_o death_n in_o ourselves_o for_o there_o be_v two_o manner_n of_o deliverance_n or_o salvation_n from_o death_n the_o one_o be_v corporal_a the_o other_o be_v spiritual_a and_o every_o one_o true_o which_o believe_v in_o christ_n have_v the_o certain_a promise_n of_o the_o spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a salvation_n and_o deliverance_n from_o death_n for_o christ_n have_v overcome_v death_n and_o say_v every_o one_o which_o béeleve_v in_o i_o 6_o shall_v not_o die_v for_o ever_o wherefore_o we_o must_v in_o no_o wise_a doubt_n or_o despair_v of_o this_o deliverance_n and_o salvation_n for_o whosoever_o despair_v of_o the_o same_o shall_v die_v for_o ever_o the_o other_o be_v the_o corporal_a life_n the_o which_o although_o it_o have_v be_v promise_v and_o be_v perform_v by_o god_n towards_o many_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o have_v not_o a_o general_a promise_n at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n that_o every_o one_o which_o believe_v in_o christ_n shall_v always_o corporal_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o peril_n of_o death_n wherefore_o see_v this_o extern_a and_o corporal_a deliverance_n have_v not_o a_o certain_a promise_n it_o can_v not_o certain_o be_v look_v for_o but_o we_o must_v commit_v our_o will_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n whereupon_o we_o may_v gather_v that_o our_o prophet_n ionas_n despair_v not_o of_o the_o true_a and_o eternal_a salvation_n and_o deliverance_n which_o have_v a_o certain_a promise_n in_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n and_o in_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n which_o be_v christ_n as_o touch_v the_o corporal_a salvation_n and_o deliverance_n see_v it_o have_v not_o a_o certain_a and_o express_v promise_n it_o can_v conceive_v a_o certain_a and_o undoubted_a trust_n but_o it_o must_v call_v upon_o god_n and_o repose_v and_o commit_v the_o certainty_n of_o the_o deliverance_n to_o his_o will._n for_o so_o christ_n teach_v we_o by_o his_o prayer_n that_o we_o be_v compass_v about_o with_o extern_a and_o corporal_a peril_n from_o the_o which_o to_o be_v deliver_v we_o have_v no_o certain_a promise_n shall_v pray_v unto_o god_n that_o he_o will_v vouchsafe_v corporal_o to_o defend_v and_o deliver_v we_o let_v this_o cup_n pass_v say_v our_o saviour_n christ_n from_o i_o 26._o yet_o not_o as_o i_o will_v but_o as_o thou_o will_v this_o if_o we_o do_v with_o heart_n and_o mind_n then_o shall_v we_o oftentimes_o have_v a_o deliverance_n out_o of_o peril_n unlooked_a for_o when_o all_o hope_n be_v go_v even_o as_o it_o happen_v to_o ionas_n to_o the_o three_o young_a man_n in_o the_o fiery_a oven_n in_o babylon_n 3._o to_o daniel_n david_n and_o such_o like_a yea_o in_o all_o our_o trouble_n god_n will_v make_v a_o way_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o same_o whereby_o we_o may_v escape_v but_o if_o this_o deliverance_n happen_v not_o unto_o we_o yet_o nevertheless_o our_o celestial_a deliverance_n be_v most_o sure_a

of_o corruption_n when_o my_o soul_n faint_v within_o i_o i_o think_v upon_o the_o lord_n and_o my_o prayer_n come_v in_o unto_o thou_o even_o into_o thy_o holy_a temple_n they_o that_o hold_v of_o

&_o affliction_n yea_o the_o flame_n of_o hell_n fire_n with_o the_o which_o he_o be_v torment_v in_o the_o whale_n belly_n now_o follow_v the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o canticle_n or_o psalm_n in_o the_o which_o the_o prophet_n show_v what_o he_o do_v to_o obtain_v deliverance_n from_o such_o narrow_a strayt_n and_o to_o slake_v the_o torment_a heat_n and_o rage_n of_o hell_n fire_n although_o say_v he_o i_o go_v down_o to_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o hill_n and_o be_v bar_v in_o with_o earth_n yet_o notwithstanding_o thou_o oh_o lord_n god_n have_v bring_v my_o life_n again_o out_o of_o

i_o i_o remember_v thou_o oh_o lord_n that_o my_o prayer_n may_v come_v to_o thy_o holy_a temple_n we_o see_v here_o that_o the_o prophet_n in_o his_o extreme_a necessity_n have_v no_o other_o respect_n and_o regard_n than_o to_o the_o lord_n himself_o to_o who_o he_o come_v by_o earnest_n and_o faithful_a invocation_n and_o prayer_n whereas_o many_o of_o we_o be_v set_v in_o affliction_n and_o trouble_n make_v haste_n to_o impatience_n to_o curse_v &_o to_o blaspheme_v the_o name_n of_o god_n but_o by_o this_o way_n we_o obtain_v not_o deliverance_n but_o our_o affliction_n &_o misery_n be_v the_o more_o increase_v for_o if_o we_o covet_v to_o be_v preserve_v and_o deliver_v in_o adversity_n and_o trouble_n we_o must_v make_v haste_n to_o pray_v unto_o the_o lord_n for_o invocation_n be_v the_o way_n by_o the_o which_o we_o purchase_v unto_o we_o true_a deliverance_n every_o one_o say_v the_o prophet_n joel_n which_o invocate_v 2._o or_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v save_v the_o which_o say_v be_v once_o utter_v by_o the_o prophet_n joel_n 10._o be_v also_o repeat_v by_o peter_n and_o paul_n and_o therefore_o worthy_a to_o be_v note_v there_o be_v nothing_o that_o
have_v no_o hope_n to_o be_v deliver_v in_o so_o great_a therefore_o and_o horrible_a danger_n i_o be_v so_o affect_v and_o persuade_v that_o i_o think_v myself_o as_o touch_v my_o corporal_a health_n and_o life_n to_o be_v reject_v and_o cast_v out_o of_o god_n favour_n for_o i_o never_o look_v to_o escape_v alive_a out_o of_o the_o whale_n belly_n and_o to_o see_v and_o visit_v the_o holy_a temple_n at_o jerusalem_n &_o to_o be_v conversant_a among_o man_n again_o thus_o we_o have_v the_o paraphrastical_a exposition_n of_o these_o verse_n in_o the_o which_o the_o prophet_n show_v the_o danger_n that_o he_o be_v in_o and_o the_o affection_n of_o his_o mind_n and_o now_o let_v we_o see_v what_o thing_n ought_v special_o in_o these_o word_n to_o be_v consider_v and_o observe_v first_o of_o all_o the_o prophet_n speak_v unto_o god_n and_o affirm_v that_o he_o be_v cast_v by_o he_o into_o the_o sea_n but_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o mariner_n cast_v he_o into_o the_o sea_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o see_v that_o ionas_n pretermit_v the_o mariner_n say_v unto_o god_n thou_o have_v cast_v i_o down_o neither_o do_v he_o say_v the_o roll_n and_o wave_n of_o the_o sea_n but_o he_o say_v thy_o wave_n and_o thy_o roll_n go_v over_o i_o by_o the_o which_o word_n the_o prophet_n teach_v we_o that_o in_o adversity_n &_o trouble_n we_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v respect_n to_o the_o instrumental_a cause_n of_o adversity_n but_o rather_o to_o look_v &_o have_v regard_n unto_o god_n the_o author_n of_o the_o same_o for_o we_o be_v so_o corrupt_a and_o affect_v by_o nature_n that_o we_o attribute_v and_o refer_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o affliction_n either_o to_o man_n or_o to_o satan_n and_o as_o it_o be_v common_o say_v of_o the_o bear_n that_o when_o she_o be_v hurt_v she_o revenge_v herself_o on_o that_o which_o be_v next_o unto_o she_o even_o so_o man_n be_v offend_v inveigh_v against_o the_o next_o or_o second_o cause_n by_o which_o he_o seem_v to_o be_v offend_v and_o hurt_v but_o if_o we_o consider_v well_o we_o shall_v find_v it_o our_o part_n in_o all_o adversity_n and_o trouble_n to_o lift_v up_o our_o eye_n unto_o heaven_n to_o god_n the_o father_n the_o true_a and_o first_o cause_n of_o adversity_n and_o the_o author_n thereof_o for_o neither_o satan_n nor_o man_n nor_o any_o other_o creature_n can_v hurt_v we_o no_o they_o can_v not_o move_v one_o hear_v of_o our_o head_n unless_o before_o power_n be_v give_v &_o grant_v of_o god_n from_o above_o one_o hear_v say_v our_o saviour_n christ_n fall_v not_o to_o the_o ground_n without_o the_o will_n of_o your_o heavenly_a father_n 10._o and_o the_o prophet_n jeremy_n in_o his_o lamentation_n say_v what_o be_v he_o which_o say_v that_o neither_o good_a nor_o evil_n shall_v proceed_v out_o of_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o most_o high_a the_o which_o thing_n when_o good_a and_o godly_a man_n consider_v they_o turn_v not_o themselves_o to_o contumelious_a say_n to_o blasphemous_a oath_n to_o execrable_a and_o bitter_a curse_n in_o adversity_n and_o affliction_n as_o though_o man_n or_o any_o other_o creature_n have_v be_v the_o author_n of_o the_o same_o but_o they_o rather_o turn_v themselves_o by_o godly_a obedience_n and_o prayer_n unto_o god_n which_o be_v the_o special_a author_n of_o affliction_n and_o trouble_n affliction_n for_o although_o we_o ourselves_o be_v the_o principal_a cause_n of_o all_o our_o affliction_n by_o reason_n of_o our_o sin_n yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o speak_v not_o of_o the_o deserve_a cause_n of_o affliction_n but_o of_o the_o infer_v and_o bring_v cause_n of_o affliction_n the_o which_o be_v god_n the_o worker_n and_o giver_n of_o all_o thing_n 10._o without_o who_o will_n and_o providence_n the_o little_a sparrow_n fall_v not_o to_o the_o ground_n 1._o so_o jobe_n say_v the_o lord_n give_v and_o the_o lord_n take_v away_o when_o the_o chaldee_n take_v away_o his_o sheep_n and_o ox_n when_o the_o fire_n burn_v his_o corn_n and_o when_o the_o wind_n overthrow_v the_o house_n in_o the_o which_o his_o son_n and_o daughter_n be_v banquet_v so_o daniel_n say_v that_o the_o lord_n cast_v the_o jew_n out_o of_o jerusalem_n into_o all_o land_n 9_o when_o as_o notwithstanding_o the_o babylonian_n do_v it_o so_o ionas_n in_o this_o place_n affirm_v that_o the_o lord_n cast_v he_o into_o the_o sea_n when_o as_o it_o appear_v by_o the_o text_n the_o mariner_n do_v it_o but_o we_o common_o in_o adversity_n say_v the_o lord_n give_v and_o the_o thief_n have_v take_v the_o lord_n give_v and_o the_o fire_n consume_v the_o lord_n give_v and_o the_o sea_n have_v drown_v contrary_a to_o the_o example_n of_o job_n daniel_n and_o ionas_n who_o have_v not_o cause_n unto_o the_o instrumental_a cause_n but_o unto_o the_o principal_a cause_n let_v we_o learn_v therefore_o by_o this_o example_n in_o all_o our_o trouble_n to_o lift_v up_o our_o eye_n unto_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o heaven_n only_o and_o to_o impute_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o our_o trouble_n unto_o he_o that_o we_o thereby_o know_v the_o will_n of_o god_n may_v conceive_v patience_n and_o be_v stir_v up_o to_o repentance_n and_o invocation_n by_o the_o which_o we_o may_v obtain_v the_o true_a salvation_n the_o which_o we_o can_v obtain_v if_o we_o refer_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o adversity_n to_o creature_n which_o be_v but_o the_o instrumental_a cause_n and_o so_o fall_v to_o ban_v and_o curse_v they_o second_o we_o see_v that_o ionas_n be_v in_o the_o whale_n belly_n tremble_v with_o great_a horror_n and_o fear_n of_o

the_o legend_n of_o saint_n do_v declare_v unto_o we_o that_o they_o suffer_v death_n void_a almost_o of_o all_o pain_n and_o that_o they_o go_v to_o their_o death_n with_o no_o less_o courage_n and_o

then_o do_v he_o not_o know_v that_o by_o this_o death_n he_o shall_v redeem_v mankind_n and_o enter_v into_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n yes_o undoubted_o he_o know_v it_o what_o do_v he_o fear_v then_o he_o fear_v to_o declare_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o perfect_a man_n and_o by_o this_o fear_n to_o satisfy_v for_o man_n and_o to_o have_v the_o victory_n over_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n that_o if_o we_o at_o any_o time_n shall_v be_v trouble_v with_o fear_n shall_v not_o despair_v but_o have_v a_o certain_a and_o sure_a hope_n and_o call_v upon_o god_n for_o deliverance_n for_o he_o

this_o fear_n of_o itself_o be_v not_o impiety_n but_o it_o be_v partly_o a_o punishment_n of_o impiety_n for_o if_o man_n have_v not_o sin_v he_o have_v not_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o fear_n of_o
