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

at_o this_o day_n of_o god_n set_v his_o son_n upon_o zion_n will_v oppose_v and_o take_v counsel_n together_o against_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o anointed_n therefore_o have_v he_o say_v he_o will_v

that_o we_o be_v come_v to_o the_o dawn_n of_o the_o day_n wherein_o the_o father_n will_v set_v his_o son_n on_o his_o zion_n it_o must_v follow_v that_o these_o be_v the_o ruler_n that_o will_v be_v

have_v say_v he_o will_v then_o speak_v to_o they_o in_o his_o wrath_n and_o vex_v they_o in_o his_o sore_a displeasure_n and_o if_o they_o harken_v not_o to_o the_o gospel_n of_o the_o kingdom_n

of_o these_o ruler_n be_v not_o their_o act_n but_o take_v council_n against_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o anointed_n for_o as_o it_o
have_v be_v already_o prove_v god_n will_v not_o permit_v they_o to_o act_v their_o counsel_n but_o while_o they_o be_v in_o counsel_n he_o will_v speak_v to_o they_o in_o his_o wrath_n now_o counsel_n be_v a_o close-cabinet_n act_n though_o day_n may_v be_v discern_v through_o a_o little_a cranny_n yet_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a work_n at_o present_a to_o prove_v it_o clear_o to_o the_o

spirit_n of_o the_o time_n will_v be_v find_v guide_v by_o a_o spirit_n of_o wisdom_n and_o truth_n 2_o that_o these_o ruler_n not_o be_v tie_v up_o by_o satan_n or_o their_o own_o conscience_n and_o

any_o shape_n or_o form_n to_o please_v man_n to_o keep_v they_o within_o the_o bound_n of_o their_o rule_n and_o dominion_n all_o this_o and_o much_o more_o be_v couch_v under_o that_o significant_a
