A96863	The saints entrance into peace and rest by death: as it was held forth in a sermon / preached at the funerall of that honourable statesman, and ever to be valued father and lover of his country, Sir William Armyne baronet one of the members of the high court of Parliament: in the day when hee was buryed with his fathers, being honourably but mournfully attended from London where he dyed, to Lenton in Lincolnshire, where he was interred, in the ancient sepulchre of his ancestors, May 10. 1651.

to_o their_o naked_a signification_n in_o another_o tongue_n but_o all_o agree_v in_o the_o substance_n that_o peace_n and_o rest_n be_v the_o issue_n of_o death_n to_o the_o righteous_a the_o first_o part_n of_o the_o verse_n be_v very_o near_o the_o original_n in_o our_o english_a render_v as_o you_o read_v he_o shall_v enter_v into_o peace_n they_o shall_v rest_v in_o their_o bed_n or_o couch_n for_o the_o latter_a part_n i_o shall_v rather_o incline_v to_o marlerate_v and_o oecolampadius_n who_o render_v it_o each_o one_o walk_v before_o god_n than_o to_o junius_n who_o render_v it_o each_o

of_o these_o word_n be_v a_o very_a full_a description_n of_o the_o bless_a estate_n of_o the_o righteous_a after_o death_n and_o because_o it_o may_v be_v a_o abundant_a cordial_a to_o meet_v with_o all_o those_o discouragement_n and_o contempt_n they_o find_v from_o wicked_a man_n as_o suppose_v they_o to_o perish_v and_o be_v take_v away_o and_o so_o cut_v off_o from_o all_o joy_n and_o

the_o rest_n because_o the_o fruit_n of_o it_o be_v walk_v before_o god_n which_o be_v the_o beatifical_a conversation_n of_o believer_n before_o god_n for_o ever_o there_o be_v many_o small_a

be_v the_o best_a demonstration_n of_o the_o fruitfulness_n of_o the_o land_n and_o that_o scripture_n phrase_n best_o set_v forth_o scripture_n thing_n i_o will_v give_v you_o two_o or_o three_o expression_n of_o scripture_n as_o a_o taste_n of_o the_o fruit_n and_o peace_n of_o that_o good_a land_n this_o estate_n of_o peace_n to_o the_o soul_n of_o saint_n be_v term_v in_o scripture_n 1_o
