a_o secret_a instinct_n of_o nature_n hunt_v and_o wind_n about_o for_o the_o breast_n those_o bottle_n wherein_o god_n have_v wonderful_o provide_v milk_n out_o of_o blood_n for_o their_o

wonder_v the_o tongue_n of_o stammer_a child_n yea_o the_o mouth_n of_o suck_a infant_n do_v most_o rhetorical_o speak_v forth_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n before_o they_o can_v speak_v as_o for_o that_o phrase_n of_o ordain_v strength_n out_o of_o the_o mouth_n of_o babe_n and_o suckling_n thou_o have_v ordain_v or_o found_v strength_n either_o the_o meaning_n be_v that_o god_n have_v firm_o

and_o suckling_n and_o indeed_o because_o whatever_o discover_v the_o strength_n of_o god_n tend_v to_o his_o glory_n and_o praise_n therefore_o god_n glory_n and_o strength_n be_v often_o join_v together_o in_o the_o psalm_n as_o psal_n 29.1_o give_v unto_o the_o lord_n glory_n and_o strength_n and_o so_o often_o elsewhere_o and_o these_o very_a word_n be_v render_v by_o the_o septuagint_n

to_o confound_v all_o the_o proud_a atheist_n in_o the_o world_n that_o deny_v the_o power_n of_o god_n all-ruling_a providence_n for_o these_o be_v they_o that_o be_v here_o call_v god_n enemy_n to_o

there_o be_v another_o exposition_n that_o have_v much_o probability_n in_o it_o to_o wit_n that_o god_n do_v usual_o choose_v to_o glorify_v himself_o by_o weak_a and_o simple_a and_o despise_a people_n who_o he_o term_n here_o babe_n and_o suckling_n as_o christ_n also_o term_n they_o matth._n 11.25_o thou_o have_v hide_v these_o thing_n from_o the_o wise_a and_o prudent_a and_o have_v reveal_v they_o unto_o babe_n rather_o then_o by_o the_o great_a learned_a and_o wise_a man_n of_o the_o world_n and_o that_o the_o lord_n do_v this_o that_o he_o may_v still_o the_o enemy_n and_o the_o avenger_n that_o be_v that_o he_o may_v confound_v all_o the_o wicked_a enemy_n of_o god_n and_o his_o people_n as_o when_o he_o cause_v the_o gospel_n to_o prevail_v in_o the_o world_n by_o such_o simple_a and_o such_o mean_a man_n and_o when_o he_o reveal_v the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n to_o such_o rather_o than_o other_o this_o be_v sufficient_a to_o confound_v the_o great_a and_o wise_a man_n of_o the_o world_n according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 1.27_o god_n have_v choose_v the_o foolish_a thing_n of_o the_o world_n to_o confound_v the_o wise_a etc._n etc._n and_o this_o they_o say_v david_n may_v allege_v to_o answer_v why_o he_o shall_v undertake_v to_o set_v forth_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n which_o in_o the_o forego_n verse_n he_o have_v employ_v be_v inexpressible_a to_o wit_n because_o god_n be_v wont_a to_o glorify_v himself_o by_o babe_n and_o suckling_n which_o make_v some_o also_o incline_v to_o think_v that_o david_n compose_v this_o psalm_n in_o his_o young_a year_n when_o he_o keep_v his_o father_n sheep_n and_o so_o admire_v that_o god_n shall_v employ_v such_o a_o babe_n as_o he_o be_v in_o set_v forth_o his_o praise_n and_o to_o make_v this_o the_o more_o probable_a they_o observe_v that_o vers_n 3._o he_o set_v forth_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o heaven_n as_o they_o glitter_v in_o the_o night_n season_n when_o he_o use_v to_o

of_o the_o common_a sort_n of_o people_n that_o cry_v hosanna_n to_o he_o as_o he_o ride_v into_o jerusalem_n i_o conceive_v the_o drift_n thereof_o be_v to_o imply_v that_o if_o god_n all-ruling_a providence_n be_v magnify_v as_o david_n say_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o babe_n and_o suckling_n it_o need_v not_o then_o seem_v strange_a that_o god_n shall_v by_o his_o providence_n stir_v up_o those_o child_n &_o despise_a people_n to_o give_v that_o testimony_n to_o he_o the_o promise_a messiah_n even_o to_o the_o confusion_n of_o the_o scribe_n &_o pharisee_n that_o be_v the_o enemy_n

ordain_v strength_n by_o strength_n may_v be_v mean_v a_o strong_a and_o firm_a kingdom_n as_o elsewhere_o it_o be_v namely_o psal_n 86.16_o give_v thy_o strength_n unto_o thy_o servant_n and_o
