A88385	A brief exposition upon the second Psalme. Wherein wee have that time modestly pointed at, (by the favourable direction of that significant then in the 5th v.) in which the father will in wrath to the (professing, refined) rulers of the world set his Sonne on Sion. And a description of the work the Son then performeth, both by his spirit, and his mysticall body. With usefull observations thereupon. Tending to clear up the scope of the whole Psalme. With application to our times. / By William Llanvædonon of P.H.C.	Llanvædonon, William, of P.H.C.	1655 (1655)	Wing L2619; Thomason E844_9; ESTC R210352	60,620	69

battle_n against_o the_o beast_n for_o a_o kingdom_n divide_v against_o itself_o can_v stand_v if_o satan_n be_v against_o satan_n how_o can_v he_o prosper_v therefore_o it_o be_v not_o reasonable_a to_o think_v that_o satan_n shall_v set_v they_o on_o work_n to_o destroy_v his_o king_n but_o that_o these_o ruler_n do_v fight_v upon_o the_o account_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o people_n again_o satan_n be_v on_o the_o lose_a hand_n by_o these_o ruler_n for_o as_o satan_n be_v not_o so_o visible_a nor_o so_o absolute_a in_o his_o rule_n over_o the_o world_n in_o the_o beast_n time_n as_o in_o the_o dragon_n so_o now_o he_o lose_v more_o ground_n in_o the_o loss_n of_o his_o king_n then_o when_o he_o lose_v his_o dragon_n and_o can_v it_o be_v think_v the_o wise_a serpent_n will_v do_v himself_o this_o mischief_n further_o if_o these_o have_v go_v out_o to_o war_n upon_o any_o low_a account_n they_o will_v have_v be_v king_n still_o as_o we_o see_v daily_o when_o one_o king_n be_v go_v another_o get_v up_o into_o his_o seat_n yet_o but_o a_o king_n certain_o it_o be_v some_o weighty_a reason_n that_o move_v they_o to_o forsake_v the_o glorious_a title_n of_o a_o king_n and_o make_v such_o refine_a pretension_n as_o the_o very_a name_n ruler_n consider_v it_o stand_v in_o the_o text_n in_o opposition_n to_o the_o precede_a heathen_n and_o king_n signify_v to_o we_o they_o will_v be_v force_v to_o again_o they_o be_v ruler_n that_o have_v give_v profess_v subjection_n to_o the_o sceptre_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v hint_v to_o we_o in_o the_o three_o verse_n let_v we_o break_v their_o band_n asunder_o that_o these_o band_n can_v be_v no_o other_o but_o that_o part_n of_o the_o yoke_n of_o christ_n to_o which_o they_o have_v submit_v those_o law_n and_o command_n of_o christ_n to_o which_o they_o have_v subject_v themselves_o be_v convince_v in_o their_o conscience_n it_o be_v their_o duty_n so_o to_o do_v be_v clear_a to_o i_o upon_o these_o ground_n 1_o otherwise_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v commit_v tautology_n and_o unnecessary_a redundancy_n of_o speech_n for_o interpreter_n and_o that_o according_a to_o the_o truth_n expound_v these_o band_n and_o cord_n mention_v in_o the_o text_n to_o be_v no_o other_o than_o the_o law_n and_o command_n of_o christ_n and_o will_v it_o not_o be_v a_o derogate_a from_o the_o glory_n of_o this_o bless_a word_n of_o god_n and_o that_o excellent_a significancy_n that_o be_v in_o every_o tittle_n of_o it_o to_o say_v that_o these_o two_o manner_n of_o expression_n signify_v but_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n to_o give_v to_o it_o no_o more_o than_o a_o bare_a elegancy_n of_o speech_n sure_o then_o one_o part_n of_o the_o verse_n will_v be_v superfluous_a and_o may_v be_v leave_v out_o which_o god_n forbid_v this_o be_v to_o charge_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o so_o god_n himself_o with_o that_o imperfection_n vain_a man_n be_v subject_a to_o which_o i_o presume_v none_o that_o profess_v himself_o a_o christian_n dare_v to_o do_v and_o if_o this_o be_v grant_v which_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o there_o be_v a_o weighty_a significancy_n in_o both_o part_n of_o the_o verse_n then_o 2_o what_o more_o genuine_a interpretation_n can_v be_v give_v for_o how_o come_v the_o law_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v band_n to_o a_o man_n but_o by_o his_o be_v actual_o bind_v with_o they_o as_o the_o cord_n and_o withe_n wherewith_o samson_n be_v bind_v be_v not_o his_o band_n before_o he_o become_v bind_v with_o they_o they_o be_v cord_n and_o withe_n before_o but_o then_o they_o be_v his_o band_n which_o he_o break_v in_o sunder_o they_o can_v be_v call_v a_o man_n band_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o duty_n that_o lie_v upon_o he_o to_o yield_v obedience_n to_o they_o for_o so_o they_o be_v call_v cord_n which_o these_o man_n endeavour_v to_o cast_v away_o from_o they_o a_o man_n become_v bind_v either_o by_o covenant_n oath_n vow_n or_o engagement_n when_o a_o man_n shall_v make_v a_o covenant_n to_o walk_v in_o obedience_n to_o such_o and_o such_o law_n and_o bind_v himself_o to_o the_o performance_n of_o it_o with_o a_o oath_n when_o he_o shall_v make_v a_o vow_n and_o engage_v to_o do_v such_o and_o such_o thing_n though_o these_o duty_n and_o obligation_n be_v but_o cord_n before_o yet_o now_o by_o these_o tie_n upon_o he_o they_o be_v become_v his_o band_n these_o ruler_n be_v thus_o tie_v and_o bind_v take_v counsel_n together_o to_o break_v these_o band_n asunder_o and_o to_o cast_v away_o the_o cord_n from_o they_o that_o they_o be_v not_o as_o yet_o bind_v with_o object_n if_o it_o be_v object_v that_o in_o the_o text_n it_o be_v say_v their_o band_n that_o be_v the_o band_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o anointed_n so_o that_o they_o can_v be_v the_o band_n of_o the_o ruler_n i_o answer_v 1_o it_o be_v bring_v in_o as_o the_o speech_n of_o the_o ruler_n and_o so_o i_o conceive_v hold_v forth_o unto_o we_o their_o apostasy_n who_o now_o in_o a_o opprobrious_a scorn_n call_v they_o their_o band_n thereby_o deny_v that_o they_o be_v at_o all_o oblige_v to_o the_o observance_n of_o they_o or_o 2_o by_o this_o term_n their_o band_n may_v be_v intimate_v to_o we_o those_o law_n of_o christ_n which_o christ_n by_o the_o common_a and_o ordinary_a working_n of_o his_o spirit_n have_v wrought_v in_o these_o ruler_n some_o kind_n of_o love_n to_o which_o move_v they_o to_o a_o subjection_n to_o they_o or_o by_o his_o providence_n have_v necessitate_v they_o so_o to_o do_v otherwise_o they_o see_v they_o can_v not_o prosper_v in_o their_o work_n or_o that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n christ_n anointed_n by_o their_o exhortation_n call_v upon_o they_o and_o that_o formidable_a assistance_n they_o give_v unto_o they_o while_o they_o stand_v for_o christ_n against_o satan_n in_o his_o king_n have_v oblige_v they_o to_o be_v bind_v with_o so_o that_o these_o may_v be_v true_o call_v their_o band_n because_o they_o be_v the_o cord_n with_o which_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o anoint_a have_v bind_v they_o of_o which_o they_o can_v be_v free_v except_o they_o break_v they_o yet_o still_o they_o be_v the_o ruler_n band_n which_o they_o take_v counsel_n together_o to_o break_v therefore_o 3_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o different_a carriage_n of_o these_o ruler_n towards_o the_o band_n and_o the_o cord_n will_v add_v some_o further_a satisfaction_n they_o will_v break_v their_o band_n and_o cast_v away_o their_o cord_n if_o the_o band_n have_v no_o more_o tie_n upon_o they_o than_o the_o cord_n the_o same_o slight_a manner_n of_o carriage_n of_o they_o towards_o the_o cord_n will_v serve_v they_o also_o to_o be_v rid_v of_o the_o band_n but_o it_o be_v far_o otherwise_o though_o they_o think_v a_o bare_a cast_n and_o put_v away_o will_v clear_v they_o of_o the_o cord_n yet_o they_o be_v sensible_a the_o band_n cleave_v so_o close_o to_o they_o they_o can_v be_v rid_v of_o they_o unless_o they_o break_v they_o as_o sampson_z can_v not_o be_v free_a from_o his_o cord_n and_o withe_n wherewith_o he_o be_v bind_v until_o he_o have_v break_v they_o if_o they_o have_v not_o so_o oblige_v themselves_o to_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n as_o that_o they_o be_v bind_v by_o they_o what_o need_v they_o take_v counsel_n to_o break_v they_o a_o man_n need_v not_o stand_v to_o break_v a_o cord_n to_o clear_v himself_o of_o it_o except_o he_o be_v bind_v therewith_o if_o only_o a_o proffer_n be_v make_v to_o bind_v he_o with_o it_o he_o may_v put_v it_o by_o and_o cast_v it_o from_o he_o that_o be_v easy_a for_o he_o so_o to_o do_v and_o will_v serve_v the_o turn_n as_o here_o in_o the_o text_n they_o consult_v to_o do_v but_o if_o he_o be_v once_o bind_v with_o it_o nothing_o but_o a_o forcible_a break_n of_o it_o will_v free_v he_o so_o that_o this_o carriage_n of_o they_o towards_o the_o band_n and_o the_o cord_n confirm_v our_o assertion_n yet_o notwithstanding_o this_o their_o profess_a subjection_n to_o christ_n these_o ruler_n turn_v apostate_n satan_n debauch_n they_o then_o enter_v into_o they_o make_v they_o his_o own_o to_o finish_v his_o warfare_n to_o fight_v for_o he_o though_o after_o another_o manner_n in_o a_o more_o subtle_a method_n then_o former_o bring_v forth_o the_o very_a masterpiece_n of_o satan_n wisdom_n for_o we_o see_v here_o they_o take_v counsel_n together_o against_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o anointed_n 2_o than_o when_o the_o ruler_n take_v council_n counsel_n in_o distinction_n from_o and_o opposition_n to_o the_o mad_a rage_n of_o the_o heathen_a and_o the_o open_a and_o public_a boldness_n of_o the_o king_n these_o two_o kind_n of_o vassal_n not_o thrive_v in_o their_o way_n satan_n run_v to_o his_o
