Jehosaba sister to Athaliah stole Joash the Son of Ahaziah from amongst the Kings Sons that were slaine she hid him in the house of the Lord six years Jehoiada in the seventh year brings him forth to the people puts the Crown upon him gave him the testimony they made him King and anointed him they clapt their hands and said God save the KING There is no difficultie in the words he that runs may read and he that reads will understand there is no diversity nor varietie in them In the Text there are three parties and the parts they performed in this restauration Jehoiada the high Priest Joash the King and the People I name them not according to their excellency and worth but as they are presented in the Text. 1. Jehoiada he shews himself upon this great and glorious Theatre and he acts four things 1. He brings forth the Kings Son 2. He puts the Crown upon him 3. He gives him the testimony 4.

He publickly shews himself to the people in his Royaltie and Majestie 2. He weares the Crown on his Head 3. He takes the testimony in his Hand 4. He hath the sacred Oyle on his breast The third partie that appears the People the parts that they performe are three 1. They made him King 2. They clapt their hands 3.
