no_o more_o and_o the_o other_o be_v keep_v in_o captivity_n for_o the_o space_n of_o seventy_o year_n as_o we_o may_v see_v in_o the_o end_n of_o 2_o king_n and_o 2_o chronicle_n and_o as_o our_o bless_a lord_n have_v tell_v they_o when_o they_o be_v fall_v to_o great_a wickedness_n again_o that_o except_o they_o repent_v they_o shall_v perish_v as_o the_o galilean_n do_v so_o for_o want_v of_o their_o repentance_n and_o amendment_n do_v god_n send_v a_o most_o heavy_a judgement_n upon_o they_o about_o 38_o or_o 39_o year_n after_o our_o saviour_n death_n and_o the_o roman_n do_v destroy_v and_o root_v they_o out_o of_o their_o own_o land_n in_o the_o end_n the_o sword_n of_o the_o enemy_n without_o and_o famine_n and_o pestilence_n and_o intestine_a broil_n within_o do_v make_v most_o miserable_a havoc_n of_o they_o the_o famine_n be_v so_o sharp_a in_o jerusalem_n that_o they_o eat_v their_o own_o child_n through_o extreme_a hunger_n as_o moses_n long_v before_o have_v tell_v they_o and_o the_o slaughter_n of_o the_o jew_n of_o all_o sort_n that_o die_v first_o and_o last_o in_o the_o compass_n of_o a_o few_o year_n by_o sword_n famine_n and_o pestilence_n be_v so_o great_a that_o there_o perish_v above_o fourteen_o hundred_o thousand_o person_n as_o it_o be_v report_v by_o these_o and_o the_o like_a example_n we_o may_v see_v that_o god_n have_v often_o send_v very_o sore_a and_o heavy_a judgement_n and_o calamity_n upon_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o the_o world_n for_o their_o great_a sin_n and_o rebellion_n against_o he_o and_o now_o as_o for_o ourselves_o we_o can_v plead_v no_o exemption_n from_o such_o judgement_n of_o god_n we_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o believe_v that_o our_o age_n and_o our_o nation_n shall_v be_v free_a from_o the_o scourge_v of_o divine_a providence_n and_o the_o lash_n of_o god_n rod_n when_o other_o have_v smart_v so_o sore_o under_o it_o and_o be_v punish_v in_o this_o dreadful_a manner_n if_o we_o commit_v sin_n and_o wickedness_n as_o they_o have_v do_v when_o our_o sin_n grow_v clamorous_a towards_o heaven_n and_o ascend_v up_o like_o the_o cry_n of_o sodom_n and_o call_v for_o judgement_n upon_o we_o we_o may_v well_o expect_v that_o god_n will_v hear_v the_o cry_n of_o they_o and_o be_v move_v to_o wrath_n and_o come_v down_o in_o vengeance_n upon_o we_o we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o our_o condition_n be_v the_o same_o with_o other_o and_o that_o these_o menace_n and_o threaten_n of_o judgement_n and_o calamity_n to_o other_o be_v to_o be_v such_o to_o we_o when_o our_o sin_n and_o transgression_n grow_v great_a as_o they_o do_v and_o wax_v ripe_a for_o punishment_n and_o these_o judgement_n and_o plague_n that_o have_v fall_v upon_o other_o be_v to_o be_v warning_n to_o we_o what_o we_o be_v to_o expect_v if_o we_o become_v great_a transgressor_n like_o they_o as_o the_o apostle_n show_v 1_o cor._n 10_o 5-11_a now_o all_o these_o thing_n happen_v unto_o they_o for_o example_n and_o they_o be_v write_v for_o our_o admonition_n upon_o who_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n be_v come_v and_o the_o 2_o pet._n 2.6_o and_o if_o we_o do_v but_o serious_o mind_n how_o black_a and_o dark_a our_o land_n be_v grow_v with_o all_o kind_n of_o wickedness_n and_o how_o little_a light_n appear_v in_o it_o how_o bold_a and_o dare_a sin_n and_o profaneness_n be_v grow_v and_o what_o high_a affront_v and_o provocation_n be_v offer_v against_o heaven_n we_o may_v well_o conclude_v that_o the_o righteous_a god_n above_o will_v not_o always_o keep_v silence_n but_o that_o his_o patience_n and_o forbearance_n will_v be_v tire_v out_o and_o that_o he_o will_v come_v in_o wrath_n to_o revenge_v himself_o and_o to_o still_o such_o clamour_n and_o hideous_a cry_n that_o will_v not_o let_v he_o rest_n and_o to_o ease_v himself_o of_o his_o adversary_n and_o to_o vindicate_v his_o honour_n and_o worship_n and_o dread_a here_o among_o men._n we_o may_v see_v that_o the_o unprofitable_a husbandman_n be_v to_o be_v destroy_v and_o the_o vineyard_n to_o be_v let_v out_o to_o such_o husbandman_n as_o shall_v render_v the_o fruit_n thereof_o mat._n 21.41_o and_o if_o we_o observe_v how_o little_a the_o bless_a word_n of_o god_n be_v regard_v how_o some_o have_v not_o patience_n enough_o to_o hear_v it_o and_o that_o other_o lay_v it_o but_o little_a to_o heart_n and_o let_v it_o have_v but_o little_a influence_n upon_o their_o life_n to_o lead_v they_o according_o we_o may_v just_o fear_v that_o god_n will_v not_o suffer_v his_o bless_a word_n to_o be_v so_o slight_v and_o contemn_v by_o we_o but_o will_v remove_v our_o candlestick_n and_o his_o bless_a word_n and_o light_n from_o we_o and_o leave_v we_o to_o grope_v in_o the_o dark_a a_o while_n that_o we_o may_v know_v the_o better_a how_o to_o value_v such_o a_o mercy_n when_o we_o have_v suffer_v a_o while_n for_o want_n of_o it_o and_o if_o we_o do_v not_o repent_v but_o proceed_v on_o in_o wickedness_n and_o add_v new_a sin_n to_o our_o old_a one_o if_o beside_o our_o former_a transgression_n and_o provocation_n we_o fall_v to_o that_o gross_a idolatry_n which_o be_v in_o the_o roman_a church_n which_o god_n declare_v he_o so_o much_o detest_v and_o abhor_v we_o may_v well_o expect_v that_o the_o besom_n of_o destruction_n will_v sweep_v we_o away_o in_o the_o end_n and_o that_o the_o sword_n or_o some_o other_o instrument_n of_o divine_a vengeance_n will_v cut_v we_o off_o at_o the_o last_o and_o what_o judgement_n soever_o befall_v we_o we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n be_v therein_o and_o that_o he_o suffer_v they_o to_o light_v upon_o we_o for_o our_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n and_o that_o man_n may_v be_v prepare_v against_o such_o dreadful_a judgement_n of_o god_n and_o not_o surprise_v with_o they_o that_o they_o may_v repent_v and_o provide_v for_o their_o escape_n and_o security_n at_o such_o a_o time_n be_v warn_v usual_o give_v and_o so_o we_o see_v it_o be_v here_o ii_o here_o we_o see_v that_o warn_v be_v to_o be_v give_v in_o the_o church_n and_o among_o his_o people_n that_o this_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v come_v and_o nigh_o at_o hand_n to_o they_o blow_v you_o the_o trumpet_n in_o zion_n and_o sound_v a_o alarm_n in_o my_o holy_a mountain_n for_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v for_o it_o be_v nigh_o at_o hand_n here_o the_o prophet_n use_v metaphorical_a expression_n allude_v to_o the_o camp_n and_o military_a affair_n as_o i_o conceive_v when_o he_o bid_v the_o trumpet_n to_o be_v blow_v and_o a_o alarm_n to_o be_v sound_v the_o trumpet_n indeed_o be_v use_v among_o the_o israelite_n for_o other_o purpose_n beside_o martial_a affair_n viz._n to_o assemble_v the_o congregation_n for_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n and_o for_o consultation_n etc._n etc._n but_o here_o the_o prophet_n have_v join_v the_o alarm_n with_o it_o he_o seem_v to_o allude_v to_o martial_a and_o military_a affair_n when_o the_o trumpet_n be_v blow_v and_o a_o alarm_n be_v sound_v at_o the_o sudden_a and_o unexpected_a approach_n of_o a_o enemy_n that_o they_o may_v put_v themselves_o into_o as_o good_a a_o posture_n of_o defence_n as_o be_v possible_a for_o the_o reception_n of_o they_o that_o they_o may_v be_v able_a to_o stand_v valiant_o against_o they_o and_o not_o be_v overcome_v by_o such_o a_o sudden_a assault_n and_o be_v beat_v and_o rout_v by_o they_o and_o so_o here_o the_o prophet_n show_v that_o as_o the_o trumpet_n be_v to_o be_v blow_v and_o a_o loud_a alarm_n to_o be_v found_v at_o the_o unexpected_a come_n of_o a_o enemy_n so_o be_v proclamation_n to_o be_v make_v and_o warn_v to_o be_v give_v at_o the_o approach_n and_o come_n of_o this_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o this_o be_v to_o be_v do_v in_o zion_n that_o be_v in_o jerusalem_n the_o chief_a city_n of_o the_o jew_n for_o zion_n be_v a_o part_n of_o this_o renown_a city_n and_o in_o god_n holy_a mountain_n that_o be_v where_o the_o sacred_a temple_n of_o his_o worship_n stand_v or_o rather_o in_o the_o land_n of_o judea_n where_o god_n peculiar_a people_n dwell_v which_o seem_v here_o to_o i_o to_o be_v call_v god_n holy_a mountain_n from_o hence_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o show_v how_o god_n do_v usual_o give_v warn_v to_o all_o but_o especial_o to_o such_o as_o will_v hearken_v to_o his_o voice_n and_o take_v warn_v when_o such_o a_o day_n of_o judgement_n and_o tribulation_n and_o destruction_n be_v come_v upon_o man_n that_o they_o may_v prepare_v for_o it_o and_o for_o their_o own_o safety_n and_o security_n in_o it_o such_o be_v the_o wonderful_a love_n of_o god_n to_o mankind_n that_o he_o desire_v not_o the_o death_n of_o sinner_n but_o be_v earnest_n with_o they_o
