have_v settle_v the_o ark_n at_o jerusalem_n and_o make_v that_o city_n the_o place_n of_o god_n house_n and_o of_o religious_a worship_n and_o the_o seat_n of_o justice_n and_o judgement_n there_o be_v the_o house_n of_o god_n verse_n 9_o that_o be_v though_o the_o temple_n be_v not_o yet_o build_v if_o this_o psalm_n be_v compose_v by_o david_n as_o the_o title_n of_o it_o signify_v it_o be_v yet_o there_o be_v the_o tabernacle_n and_o the_o ark_n of_o god_n which_o former_o be_v in_o shiloh_n and_o afterward_o remove_v from_o one_o place_n to_o another_o till_o david_n settle_v it_o in_o jerusalem_n thither_o all_o the_o tribe_n of_o israel_n be_v to_o resort_v three_o time_n a_o year_n to_o worship_n god_n before_o the_o ark_n of_o the_o testimony_n 4_o ver_fw-la there_o be_v the_o imperial_a seat_n where_o david_n have_v build_v his_o throne_n and_o palace_n and_o where_o his_o posterity_n be_v to_o dwell_v and_o govern_v israel_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v the_o seat_n of_o justice_n too_o as_o that_o must_v be_v where_o the_o king_n throne_n and_o the_o house_n of_o god_n be_v place_v there_o be_v set_v throne_n of_o judgement_n the_o throne_n of_o the_o house_n of_o david_n 5._o ver_fw-la these_o be_v the_o peculiar_a privilege_n of_o jerusalem_n above_o any_o other_o city_n in_o jury._n this_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o that_o peculiar_a affection_n and_o passionate_a concern_v which_o david_n have_v himself_o and_o exhort_v all_o other_o to_o express_v for_o jerusalem_n that_o he_o great_o rejoice_v to_o go_v thither_o and_o to_o continue_v there_o i_o be_v glad_a when_o they_o say_v unto_o i_o let_v we_o go_v into_o the_o house_n of_o the_o lord_n our_o foot_n shall_v stand_v within_o thy_o gate_n o_o jerusalem_n that_o he_o exhort_v all_o people_n to_o pray_v for_o the_o peace_n and_o prosperity_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o promise_v a_o blessing_n to_o those_o who_o love_v it_o as_o it_o be_v in_o my_o text_n pray_v for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n they_o shall_v prosper_v that_o love_n thou_o peace_n be_v within_o thy_o wall_n and_o prosperity_n within_o thy_o palace_n all_o this_o be_v not_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o material_a building_n the_o beauty_n of_o the_o place_n or_o the_o conveniency_n of_o its_o situation_n but_o because_o it_o be_v the_o centre_n of_o unity_n which_o be_v build_v as_o a_o city_n that_o be_v compact_v together_o whither_o the_o tribe_n go_v up_o the_o tribe_n of_o the_o lord_n unto_o the_o testimony_n of_o israel_n to_o give_v thanks_o unto_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n 3._o &_o 4._o ver_fw-la which_o show_v in_o what_o respect_n he_o commend_v jerusalem_n that_o it_o be_v build_v as_o a_o city_n which_o be_v compact_v together_o not_o with_o regard_n to_o the_o uniformity_n and_o regular_a order_n and_o union_n of_o its_o material_a building_n but_o that_o it_o be_v the_o centre_n of_o a_o religious_a unity_n and_o order_n in_o worship_n where_o all_o the_o tribe_n of_o israel_n meet_v and_o unite_v in_o the_o same_o act_n of_o worship_n and_o praise_n to_o god_n there_o be_v the_o house_n of_o god_n there_o be_v the_o set_v throne_n of_o judgement_n so_o that_o to_o love_n jerusalem_n to_o pray_v for_o the_o peace_n and_o prosperity_n of_o it_o be_v to_o love_v the_o house_n the_o worship_n the_o name_n of_o god_n to_o love_n and_o pray_v for_o the_o unity_n happiness_n and_o prosperity_n of_o the_o church_n for_o the_o flourish_a state_n of_o religion_n and_o the_o peaceful_a opportunity_n of_o worship_v god_n in_o his_o holy_a temple_n together_o with_o the_o equal_a and_o impartial_a administration_n of_o justice_n which_o be_v so_o much_o for_o the_o public_a good_a to_o promote_v the_o temporal_a and_o eternal_a happiness_n of_o man_n that_o our_o love_n to_o mankind_n but_o especial_o our_o love_n to_o the_o brethren_n as_o well_o as_o our_o zeal_n for_o god_n glory_n and_o worship_n require_v this_o of_o we_o for_o my_o

i_o have_v give_v you_o a_o very_a plain_a and_o easy_a exposition_n of_o this_o whole_a psalm_n and_o therein_o have_v sufficient_o explain_v my_o text._n i_o have_v but_o one_o thing_n more_o to_o add_v to_o make_v way_n for_o my_o intend_a discourse_n and_o that_o be_v to_o show_v you_o that_o this_o exhortation_n do_v direct_o and_o not_o mere_o by_o accommodation_n and_o analogy_n concern_v we_o as_o well_o as_o it_o do_v the_o jew_n for_o jerusalem_n be_v but_o a_o type_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n as_o the_o carnal_a israel_n or_o the_o carnal_a seed_n and_o posterity_n of_o

to_o pray_v for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n do_v most_o proper_o belong_v to_o christian_n because_o the_o christian_a church_n be_v the_o true_a jerusalem_n the_o new_a the_o holy_a jerusalem_n descend_v out_o of_o heaven_n from_o god_n v._o 10._o by_o this_o time_n i_o suppose_v you_o understand_v the_o meaning_n of_o my_o text_n and_o how_o much_o we_o be_v concern_v in_o it_o and_o there_o be_v two_o part_n observable_a in_o the_o word_n 1._o the_o duty_n to_o pray_v for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n or_o of_o the_o christian_a church_n peace_n be_v within_o thy_o wall_n and_o prosperity_n within_o thy_o palace_n 2._o the_o encouragement_n to_o this_o they_o shall_v prosper_v that_o love_n thou_o it_o be_v the_o first_o of_o these_o i_o shall_v at_o present_a speak_v to_o the_o duty_n to_o pray_v for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n wherein_o i_o shall_v consider_v two_o thing_n 1._o what_o we_o must_v pray_v for_o 2._o how_o necessary_a prayer_n be_v to_o obtain_v these_o blessing_n i._o what_o we_o must_v pray_v for_o peace_n and_o prosperity_n peace_n be_v within_o thy_o wall_n and_o prosperity_n within_o thy_o palace_n now_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o church_n signify_v two_o thing_n 1._o the_o unity_n and_o agreement_n of_o christian_n among_o themselves_o 2._o the_o preservation_n of_o the_o church_n from_o external_a oppression_n and_o persecution_n 1._o the_o unity_n and_o agreement_n of_o christian_n among_o themselves_o when_o they_o profess_v the_o same_o faith_n and_o join_v in_o the_o same_o worship_n when_o they_o love_v like_o brethren_n and_o have_v a_o tender_a affection_n and_o sympathy_n for_o each_o other_o as_o member_n of_o the_o same_o body_n this_o all_o christian_n confess_v to_o be_v a_o great_a and_o necessary_a duty_n and_o pretend_v to_o lament_v the_o many_o scandalous_a dissension_n and_o division_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n this_o i_o be_o sure_a that_o though_o division_n and_o dissension_n be_v destructive_a to_o all_o society_n yet_o there_o be_v no_o society_n suffer_v so_o much_o by_o it_o as_o the_o christian_a church_n this_o destroy_v love_n and_o charity_n which_o be_v the_o true_a spirit_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o badge_n and_o cognizance_n of_o our_o profession_n by_o this_o shall_v all_o man_n know_v that_o you_o be_v my_o disciple_n if_o you_o love_v one_o another_o this_o turn_v the_o christian_a church_n into_o a_o school_n of_o wrangle_a dispute_n and_o make_v man_n more_o concern_v what_o they_o believe_v than_o how_o they_o live_v this_o give_v great_a offence_n to_o the_o world_n represent_v the_o christian_a faith_n as_o very_o doubtful_a and_o uncertain_a and_o christianity_n itself_o as_o a_o great_a disturber_n of_o the_o peace_n of_o mankind_n this_o overthrow_v all_o government_n and_o discipline_n in_o the_o church_n and_o make_v its_o censure_n despise_v and_o scorn_v when_o the_o most_o
