John THe Gospel according to JOHN This book is thus intituled from the Penman of it viz.

beginning of the eleventh moneth of the fourtieth yeare viz. 38. years and upwards as Iun. and Ainsw observe And this may remarkably be evinced by comparing Numb 1.1 and 36.13 diligently with Deut. 1.3 which as above demonstrate both the beginning and ending of this History of Numbers Scope Lively to set forth the rich blessing of God upon Israel in their wonderfull increase his vigilant providence over them in all their wildernes journeyes and difficulties and yet his severity against their corruption for which many of them perished in the wildernesse after they had been delivered out of Egypt so that they could not enter into his rest because of their unbeliefe Heb. 3.19 Iude ver 5.

Murmuring for want of water c. 20. 8. Murmuring because of the way and the light bread and so were plagued with fiery serpents c. 21. III. Israels Station State or condition when they were now nigh to the possession of their inheritance c. 21. to the end of the Book Here is set down a double State or Condition 1.

Or as it is circumscribed with lawes Both of refuge for the man-slayer that slew any unawares c. 35. And of successions in their inheritances c. 36 Deuteron DEUTERONOMIE i. e. The second law or Law repeated Thus denominated by the Greek because this book containeth a Repetition of Gods law given by Moses to Israel AS in Hebrew it is sometimes from the same ground called 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 mischneh i. e. Repetition of the law From the first words in the Book it s cal'd 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Elleh Haddebarim i e. These are the words or only 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Debarim i. e. The words Penman of this Book as of all the foure former Books was Moses who also wrote the History of his own death aforehand in the last chapter by a Prophetick spirit or Ioshua wrote it for him Alsted Praecog Theol. l. 2. c. 118. This Book containes the History of but a few dayes viz. from the beginning of the eleventh moneth to about the seventh day of the twelfth moneth of the fourtieth yeare after Israels departure out of Egypt for Moses began to speak these words in the first day of the eleventh moneth of the said fourtieth yeare Deut. 1.3 which was a little before his death he died when he was one hundred and twenty years old Deut. 34.7 after which Israel mourned for Moses in the land of Moab thirty dayes Deut. 34.8 this determines the time of the History As Iun. well observes Thus Alsted in Praecog Theol. l. 2. c. 118. computes the time of this History viz. 1. The first Part of this Book containes the History of the first day of the eleventh moneth of the fourtieth yeare after their coming out of Egypt c. 1 2 3 4. 2. The second part contains the History of the second day c. 5. to 11 3. The third part containes the History as is probable of foure dayes at most c. 11. to 26. 4. The fourth part containes the History of one day c. 27.28 5. The fifth containes the History also of one day c. 29 30. 6. The sixth containes the History of one day c. 31. c. 7. The 7 th part contains the History of their mourning for Moses thirty daies c. 34. Proofe hereof may be drawn from the History of Ioshua by computing backwards from the day of the Passeover For in the land of Canaan the first Passeover was celebrated in the one and fourtieth year after Israels coming ou● of Egypt on the fourteenth day of the moneth Nisan Josh. 5 10. Before which they were circumcised which probably took up foure dayes Josh. 5. One day they were passing thorough Jordan two dayes in preparation for it Adde to these the time of searching out the land and lastly the thirty dayes mourning And thus going backwards we shall find that Deuteronomie containes an History of but a very few dayes Scope That the law formerly given of God may by this New Repetition of it be more declared confirmed and applied to the present condition of Israel and they thereby fitted and better prepared for the promised Canaan upon which they were entring Principall Parts are The Preface Narration and Conclusion of the Book I. Preface or Prologue c. 1. to 5. contayning 1. A Narration 1. Of Gods calling of Israel from Horeb to the promised Land c. 1. 2. Of the execution of this call Both by divine conduct against their enemies c. 2. And by appointment to enter the Land c. 3. 2. An exhortation
or they may be collected from other Scriptures or the matter of the Prophesies of which we cannot conclude altogether so cleerly These times may be referred as the Historical books to three principall Periods viz. 1. Before 2. Neere or under 3. After the Babylonish captivity And if in these three periods we parallel these Prophets with those Historical Books they will notably help to cleer and explain one another I. Before the transportation of Israel into Babylon These Prophets prophesied and wrote viz. 1. Under Vzziah King of Judah and Ieroboam the second King of Israel IONAH he prophecied before or about beginning of Ieroboams Reigne See 2 King 14 25. As Iun. noteth in Ionah 1.1 About the close of his Reigne thinkes Drusius in Quaesitis Epist. 9. 1. AMOS See Amos 1.1 2. Under Vzziah Iotham Ahaz and Hezekiah Kings of Judah and Ieroboam King of Israel HOSEA Hos. 1.1 IOEL Ioel prophesied about the same time with Hosea as is thought because the things prophecied in Ioel relate to the dayes of Vzziah and Ieroboam See Iun. Annot. in Ioel 1.1 ISAIAH Isa. 1.1 here the days of King Ieroboam are not mentioned MICHAH Only under Iotham Ahaz and Hezekiah Mich. 1.1 3. Under Iosiah IEREMIAH Till the eleventh yeere of Zedekiah Jer. 1 2 3. being compared with Ier. 51.64 Iun. Annot. ibid. LAMENTATIONS Written by Ieremiah upon occasion of King Josiah's Death 2 Chr. 35.25 ZEPHANIAH Zeph. 1.1 OBADIAH Seems to be contemporary with Ieremiah compare his prophecy with Ier. 49.7 c. And Ezek. 25. 13. c. See Iun. in Obad. 1. NAHVM About the close of Iosiah's Reigne as the matter of the Book and the harmony of the History import So Iun. in Nah. 1.1 HABBAKKVK About the end of Iosiahs Reigne or in his sons Reign Iunius in Hab. 1.1 II. Neere upon and under the Babylonish Captivity DANIEL In the third yeere of Iehoiakim's Reigne Dan. 1.1 EZEKIEL In the fifth yeere of King Iehoiakin's Captivity Ezek. 1.1 2 3. III. After their returne from Babylons Captivity HAGGAI In the second yeere of Darius and the sixth moneth Hag. 1.1 ZECHARIAH In the second yeere of Darius the eighth moneth Zech. 1.1 MALACHI Last Prophecy of the Old-Testament Reproves the corruptions after building of the Temple See Iun. in Mal. 1.1 II. According to their Order as they are placed in our Bibles And so they are resolved into two Ranks viz. 1. The Greater Prophets viz. The foure first the Lamentations being annexed as an Appendix to Ieremiah so called not because these had greater authority then the others but from the greatnesse of their Bookes The prophecy of Isaiah being neer as big or bigger then all the lesser prophets together 2. The Lesser Prophets viz. The twelve latter Hosea c. Which were digested into one volumne of old by the Jewes called the Booke of the Prophets Act. 7.42 some of them being very small lest any of them should be lost All these books are named from their Penmen except the Lamentations I. The Greater Prophets are ●he Books of Isaiah Ieremiah Ezekiel Daniel Isaiah ISAIAH This Book is set first though in time Ionah Amos Hosea and Ioel seeme to have been before him perhaps because of the excellency of the Prophecy most frequently fully and clearly prophecying of Christ as if Christ had been exhibited already had suffered already Hence the Ancients called him Evangelisticus Propheta Propheticus Evangelista The Evangelicall Prophet and Propheticall Evangelist Or the Evangelist and Apostle of the Old Testament Christ and his Apostles greatly esteemed this Book it being oftner alledged in the New Testament then any other Book of the Old Testament except the psalms Some observe Isaiah to be quoted sixty times the Psalmes sixty foure times Alsted Ethiopians had great respect to this Book as appears Act. 8.27.28 Time of this Prophecy was in foure Kings Reigns Isa. 1.1 if we reckon from the death of Vzziah Isa. 6.1 till the fifteenth yeare of King Hezekiah when the Babilonish Ambassadours came to Hezekiah and saw all his Treasures 2 King 20. 12 13 14. He must at the least prophecy fourty five years but its probable he prophecied longer Scope To hold forth the true Messiah clearly as the only sufficient Remedy against all sin and misery Generall parts This Prophecy is either 1. Comminatory as it is for the most part till c. 40. these promises are now and then inter-woven Herein 1. The Jewes are threatned c. 1. to c. 13. 2. Enemies of the Jewesh Church are threatned for the Churches benefit c 13. to c. 29. 3. The Jewes againe are threatned with the Babylonish Captivity c. 29. to 40. 2. Promissory and that 1. For the Restauration of the Old Church of the Jews from the misery of that Captivity c. 40. to c. 49. 2. For the compleating and consummation of the Churches glory in Gospel times by Christ himselfe c. 49. to the end of the Prophecy Jeremiah JEREMIAH He was of the Towne of Anatho●h Jer. 1.1 a very young man when he began to prophesie Ier. 1.6 Time of his prophecy was in days of Iosiah Iehoiakin and Zedekiah Jer. 1.2 3. which must needs be fourty three years at least by computation both in Iudea and Egypt Scope To divorce the Iewes in his times from their many horrid sins denouncig heavy judgemenas against them But to comfort the true servants of God in their lowest misery with promises of Christ and threatnings against all their enemies Generall parts Herein are 1. The Preface containing the vocation of Ieremiah c. 1. 2 The Prophecy it self which is directed both against the Iews the enemies of the Jewes ● Against the Jews 1. in Iudea under King Iosiah c. 2. to c. 21.

Lamentations 2 Chron. 35.25 and 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Echah viz. the first Hebrew word of the Book as many other Books are named by the first word of the Book This Book seems to be penned by Ieremiah the Prophet upon the death of that precious King ●osiah 2 Chron. 35.25 when the Jewes fell to their sinfull confidence in Egypt which Beginnings of sorrows and miseries gave Ieremy occasion he knowing by the spirit of Prophecy the judgments which should befall them to lament all the miseries from Iosiahs death till the destruction of the Temple and Ierusalem and captivity of the people in Babylon The foure first chapters are penned alphebetically as many Psalmes are for help of memory in such an excellent piece as this is In 1.2 4. chapters every verse begins
