more_o than_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n because_o he_o do_v not_o more_o severe_o and_o more_o zealous_o rebuke_v his_o son_n and_o in_o that_o there_o want_v in_o he_o that_o fervency_n of_o spirit_n whreby_o he_o shall_v have_v cut_v off_o his_o son_n from_o their_o office_n wherefore_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n do_v cut_v off_o his_o life_n and_o deprive_v all_o his_o posterity_n of_o the_o priesthood_n although_o this_o good_a man_n be_v offend_v and_o grieve_v with_o the_o evil_n of_o his_o son_n yet_o his_o coldness_n in_o zeal_n bring_v ●pon_n he_o this_o plague_n elias_n who_o zeal_n as_o much_o please_v the_o lord_n as_o the_o coldness_n of_o elie_n displease_v he_o be_v of_o a_o fervent_a spirit_n for_o when_o the_o lord_n ask_v he_o where_o he_o have_v be_v he_o answer_v i_o have_v be_v zealous_a for_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o host_n sake_n and_o when_o he_o complain_v that_o he_o can_v find_v none_o which_o have_v not_o bow_v unto_o baal_n the_o lord_n vouchsafe_v to_o comfort_v he_o and_o tell_v he_o there_o be_v 7000._o which_o never_o bow_v their_o knee_n to_o he_o well_o because_o he_o continue_v zealous_a in_o beat_v down_o idolatry_n the_o lord_n come_v down_o visible_o with_o a_o fiery_a chariot_n and_o fetch_v eliah_n from_o earth_n to_o heaven_n we_o need_v not_o here_o speak_v of_o the_o great_a zeal_n of_o moses_n phinees_n and_o other_o of_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n we_o see_v and_o know_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o love_n in_o the_o man_n of_o god_n be_v the_o pureness_n of_o the_o word_n we_o hear_v in_o the_o first_o verse_n that_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v righteous_a we_o have_v hear_v in_o the_o second_o verse_n that_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o lord_n contain_v a_o special_a righteousness_n we_o shall_v hear_v in_o the_o six_o verse_n that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v a_o everlasting_a righteousness_n we_o may_v see_v in_o the_o seven_o verse_n that_o it_o make_v he_o delight_v in_o trouble_n and_o in_o the_o eight_o verse_n that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v everlasting_a wherefore_o do_v he_o this_o as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v to_o strengthen_v his_o faith_n for_o after_o he_o have_v say_v that_o the_o river_n of_o tear_n through_o zeal_n and_o grief_n burst_v out_o of_o his_o eye_n he_o add_v and_o rehearse_v these_o thing_n what_o shall_v we_o say_v they_o be_v vain_a repitition_n nay_o we_o know_v the_o holy_a ghost_n reprove_v word_n they_o math._n 6._o we_o see_v then_o that_o in_o so_o oft_o commend_v the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o prophet_n show_v to_o we_o our_o unbelief_n which_o he_o feel_v so_o much_o in_o himself_o when_o do_v idle_a repetition_n so_o much_o displease_v the_o lord_n sure_o when_o our_o tongue_n walk_v idle_o and_o in_o our_o prayer_n we_o speak_v we_o know_v not_o what_o but_o when_o a_o man_n heart_n be_v full_a of_o sorrow_n and_o fraught_v with_o grief_n of_o his_o sin_n or_o earnest_o long_v after_o a_o thing_n then_o let_v we_o cry_v lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o i_o then_o let_v we_o pour_v out_o our_o spirit_n &_o say_v son_n of_o david_n have_v mercy_n upon_o i_o lord_n i_o believe_v help_v my_o unbelief_n thus_o when_o the_o heart_n be_v loath_a to_o be_v overcome_v of_o unbelief_n and_o when_o it_o desire_v to_o show_v forth_o his_o sorrow_n or_o when_o god_n child_n will_v exercise_v their_o faith_n or_o feel_v in_o themselves_o any_o rare_a joy_n which_o they_o will_v glad_o express_v than_o they_o use_v many_o repetition_n as_o we_o may_v see_v both_o in_o the_o book_n of_o chronicle_n and_o the_o psalm_n praise_v you_o psalm_n the_o lord_n because_o he_o be_v good_a for_o his_o mercy_n endure_v for_o ever_o where_o we_o shall_v see_v in_o 26._o verse_n this_o still_o repeat_v for_o his_o mercy_n endure_v for_o ever_o what_o shall_v we_o say_v now_o that_o here_o be_v any_o needless_a repetition_n no_o well_o we_o see_v here_o then_o that_o we_o must_v not_o speak_v simple_o against_o repetition_n but_o in_o great_a wisdom_n of_o the_o spirit_n because_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o godly_a can_v satisfy_v itself_o with_o faith_n and_o feel_n of_o god_n promise_n unless_o it_o break_v forth_o as_o a_o fire_n into_o many_o speech_n hereby_o we_o know_v now_o that_o the_o man_n of_o god_n here_o express_v his_o faith_n &_o we_o be_v to_o learn_v that_o without_o some_o lively_a feel_n of_o faith_n of_o joy_n or_o of_o grief_n we_o be_v not_o to_o use_v oft_o repetition_n unless_o happy_o they_o be_v use_v to_o stir_v we_o up_o the_o more_o to_o these_o or_o such_o like_a so_o cry_v the_o woman_n of_o canaan_n o_o son_n of_o david_n have_v mercy_n upon_o i_o and_o be_v rebuke_v she_o still_o cry_v o_o son_n of_o david_n have_v mercy_n upon_o i_o we_o will_v think_v it_o somewhat_o strange_a and_o as_o a_o great_a matter_n to_o see_v a_o poor_a body_n shoot_v out_o so_o many_o prayer_n at_o once_o when_o they_o speak_v out_o of_o the_o abundance_n of_o their_o heart_n which_o be_v stuff_v with_o so_o many_o grief_n and_o trouble_n thy_o word_n say_v the_o prophet_n be_v prove_v true_a it_o have_v no_o changeable_a goodness_n but_o have_v in_o it_o a_o everlasting_a righteousness_n serve_v for_o all_o age_n for_o all_o person_n and_o for_o all_o time_n man_n opinion_n fail_v the_o wisdom_n strength_n and_o authority_n of_o man_n in_o time_n have_v a_o end_n but_o this_o word_n be_v exceed_o large_a and_o never_o have_v end_n thy_o word_n be_v prove_v pure_a many_o will_v think_v this_o to_o be_v but_o a_o small_a commendation_n for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o come_v to_o a_o man_n when_o his_o mind_n be_v much_o trouble_v and_o tell_v he_o of_o the_o word_n and_o what_o pureness_n what_o comfort_n will_v he_o find_v in_o it_o sure_o he_o will_v be_v as_o one_o that_o have_v no_o taste_n in_o it_o and_o as_o one_o that_o feel_v no_o more_o sweetness_n than_o a_o sick_a man_n do_v taste_v in_o a_o chip_n and_o notwithstanding_o all_o that_o the_o word_n shall_v do_v to_o he_o he_o will_v still_o follow_v his_o own_o way_n and_o go_v on_o forward_o in_o the_o device_n of_o his_o own_o head_n do_v man_n than_o feel_v such_o infinite_a comfort_n in_o the_o word_n so_o much_o be_v their_o comfort_n as_o be_v their_o faith_n and_o so_o little_a be_v their_o faith_n as_o little_a be_v their_o comfort_n look_v into_o god_n child_n how_o great_o they_o lament_v their_o unbelief_n look_v into_o david_n look_v on_o job_n look_v on_o the_o late_a and_o bless_a martyr_n of_o god_n bradford_n who_o almost_o in_o all_o his_o unbelief_n book_n and_o in_o every_o meditation_n complain_v of_o his_o unbelief_n notwithstanding_o that_o he_o be_v a_o man_n so_o rich_a in_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n so_o thorough_o mortify_v to_o the_o world_n so_o stay_v in_o faith_n and_o yet_o the_o near_a he_o come_v daily_o to_o christ_n the_o more_o he_o still_o cry_v against_o unbelief_n wherefore_o paul_n see_v this_o to_o be_v a_o common_a disease_n among_o all_o man_n say_v this_o be_v a_o faithful_a thing_n and_o worthy_a of_o all_o man_n to_o be_v remember_v that_o jesus_n

the_o pureness_n of_o the_o word_n be_v mention_v of_o the_o prophet_n when_o after_o he_o have_v lament_v the_o miserable_a ellate_n of_o the_o godly_a and_o the_o great_a decay_n of_o godliness_n
