the Egyptians Also Moses was very great in the land of Egypt in the sight of Pharaohs servants and in the sight of the people Behold I have made thee Pharaohs God saith the Lord so he brought out Israel from among them for his mercy endureth for ever with a mighty hand and out-stretched arm c. after four hundred and thirty yeers captivity in Aegypt And when the four hundred and thirty yeers were expired even the self same day departed all the hosts of the Lord out of the land of Egypt And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud to lead them the way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light He divided the Sea in two parts and made Israel to pass through the midst of it and overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the red Sea for his mercy endureth for ever So leading them through the wilderness and feeding them forty yeers with Manna from heaven till at length he brought them safe and sound as it were upon Eagles wings maugre all difficulties and oppositions of enemies whatsoever even to the promised Land of Canaan the lot of their Inheritance Where thy continued in peace and prosperity so long as they served him and kept his Commandments but when once they sinned against him or rather as often as they sinned for it was not once but often and forgate the Lord their God which brought them out of the land of Egypt out of the house of Bondage then he suffered their enemies to prevail against them and tyrannize over them somtimes one and somtimes another till at length they were carried captives to Babylon Yet ever as the Burden of that Psalm is when they cryed to the Lord in their trouble he delivered them out of their distress raising up from time to time Judges as he did Moses and Joshua at the first which delivered them out of the hands of their Oppressors Othoniel who delivered them out of the hands of the King of Aram as it is in that place where it is said That the children of Israel did wickedly in the sight of the Lord and forgot the Lord their God and served Baalim therefore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel and he sold them into the hand of Chushan-rishathaim King of Aram whom they served eight yeers But when they cryed unto the Lord the Lord stirred them up a Saviour even Othoniel c. So the land had rest forty yeers Ehud who delivered them out of the hand of Eglon King of Moab Then the children of Israel again committed wickedness in the sight of the Lord and the Lord strengthned Eglon King of Moab c. So they served Eglon King of Moab eighteen yeers But when they cryed unto the Lord the Lord stirred them up a Saviour Ehud the son of Gera c. So the land had rest eighty yeers And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath which slew of the Philistims six hundred men with an Ox-goad and he also delivered Israel Deborah and Barack who delivered them out of the hand of Jabin King of Canaan And the children of Israel began again to do wickedly in the sight of the Lord and the Lord sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan whose chief Captain was Sisera Then the children of Israel cryed to the Lord c. And at that time Deborah a Prophetess judged Israel Then she sent and called Barack c. And the Lord destroyed Sisera and all his Chariots c. And the Land had rest forty yeers Gedeon who delivered them out of the hands of the Midianites Afterward the children of Israel committed wickedness in the sight of the Lord and the Lord gave them into the hands of Midian seven yeers c. So was Israel exceedingly impoverished by the Midianites therefore the children of Israel cryed unto the Lord c. and he raised them another Saviour even Gedeon that valiant man who with three hundred men and no more such as lapped water with their tongues the rest sent away by the Lords command overthrew the whole host of Midian with this cry The sword of the Lord and of Gedeon Thus was Midian brought low before the children of Israel so that they lift up their heads no more And the Country was in quietness forty yeers in the days of Gideon But when Gideon was dead the children of Israel turned away c. and remembred not the Lord their God which had delivered them out of the hands of all their enemies on every side c. After him succeeded Abimelech his son after Abimelech Tola after Tola Jair the Gileadite After these arose Jepthe who delivered them out of the hand of the Ammonites And the children of Israel wrought wickedness again in the sight of the Lord and served Baalim c. and forsook the Lord and served not him Therefore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel and the Lord sold them into the hands of the Philistims and into the hands of the children of Ammon c. Then the children of Israel cryed unto the Lord c. So the Lord raised them up another valiant man even Jepthe Then the spirit of the Lord came upon Jepthe c. So Jepthe went unto the children o● Ammon to fight against them and the Lord delivered them into his hands Thus the children of Ammon were humbled before the children o● Israel And Jepthe judged Israel six yeers After him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel After him Elon After Elon Abdon But the children of Israel continued to commit wickedness in the sight of the Lord and the Lord delivered them into the hands of the Philistims forty yeers Then God raised up Sampson who with the Jaw bone of an Ass slew a thousand of the Philistims at once And be judged Israel in the days of the Philistims twenty yeers Thus may we see by at these examples and make use thereof if we be wise what the state and condition of Gods people hath been ever of ●old the effect in brief or burden of the Song nothing else but this When they sinned against the Lord he delivered them into the hands of their enemies but when they cryed to the Lord in their trouble that is to say repented he straightway delivered them out of their distress raising up from time to time one Saviour or Deliverer after another and so immediately governing them by Judges till the day of Samuel When this people growing worse and worse and not contented with this sacred kind of Government immediately from God himself but desiring a King like all other Nations Make us a King to judge us like all other Nations He gave them a King in his anger saying to Samuel Hear the voice of the people in all that they shall say unto thee for they have

the Apostle in a most fervent manner both prayeth and prophesieth to this effect Brethren my hearts desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they might be saved Then prophesieth at large in the chapter following and that most divinely as of their fall so of their general call in due time with many arguments and reasons to that purpose Which Prayer and Prophesie of h●● proceeding from a Divine Instinct and Revelation no doubt shall one day take effect For it cannot be but that the word of God should take effect For it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth to the Jew first and also to the Grecian To the Jew first there is the promise there is the priviledge Lift up your heads now therefore O ye Jews sons of Abraham children of the promise to whom pertaineth the adoption and the glory and the covenants and the giving of the Law and the service of God and the promises of whom are the Fathers and of whom concerning the flesh Christ came I say lift up your heads and listen to the heavenly calls of Christ and his Apostle Paul For your Redemption draweth neer This is the generation of them that seek him of them that seek thy face Jacob Selah Lift up your heads ye gates and be ye lift up ye everlasting doors and the King of glory shall come in And let us Christians also upon whom the ends of the world are come lift up our heads and know remembring that parable of the Fig-tree when we see these things begin to come to pass that the Kingdom of God is near even at the doors Verily I say unto you This generation shal not pass till all these things be done Heaven and Earth shall pass away but my words shall not pass away They are the words of our Saviour And now Brethren to return to Paul I commend you to God and to the word of his grace which is able to build you up and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified Be favourable unto Zion for thy good pleasure build the walls of Jerusalem Then shalt thou accept the sacrifice of righteousness even the burnt Offering and Oblation then shall they offer Calves upon thine Altar O give salvation unto Israel out of Zion when God turneth the captivity of his people then shall Jacob rejoyce and Israel shal be glad When the Lord brought again the captivity of Zion we were like them that dream then was our mouth filled with laughter and our tongue with joy Then said they among the Heathen The Lord hath done great things for them The Lord hath done great things for us whereof we rejoyce O Lord bring again our Captivity as the Rivers in the South Save us O Lord our God and gather us from among the heathen that we may praise thine holy Name and glory in thy praise Comfort us according to the days that thou hast afflicted us and according to the yeers that we have seen evil Thou wilt arise and have mercy upon Zion for the time to have mercy thereon for the appointed time is come For thy servants delight in the stones thereof and have pity on the dust thereof Then the Heathen shall fear the Name of the Lord and all the Kings of the Earth thy glory When the Lord shall build up Zion and shall appear in his glory and shall turn unto the Prayer of the desolate and not despise their prayer This shall be written for the generation to come and the people which shall be created shall praise the Lord for he hath looked down from the height of his Sanctuary out of the heaven did the Lord behold the earth That he might hear the mourning of the Prisoner and deliver the children appointed unto death that they may declare the Name of the Lord in Zion and his praise in Jerusalem For God will save Zion and build the Cities of Judah that men may dwel there and have it in possession The seed also of his servants shall inherit it and they that love his Name shall dwell therein Surely the Lord will not fail his people neither will he forsake his Inheritance He hath alway remembred his Covenant and promise that he made to a thousand generations Thou wilt think upon thy Congregation which thou hast possessed of old and on the rod of thine Inheritance which thou hast redeemed and on mount Zion wherein thou hast dwelt Yea when the Lord turneth again the captivity of his people which will be when they turn unto him by hearty repentance not before when they cryed unto the Lord in their trouble he delivered them out of their distress then will he make even their very enemies to become their friends and give them grace and favour in the sight of all those Kings and Princes under whom they now live and groan in most miserable slavery and bondage as in their former captivities may be observed He saw when they were in affliction and heard their cry He remembred his Covenant towards them and repented according to the multitude of his mercies and gave them favour in the sight of all them that led them captive for the hearts of Kings are in the hands of the Lord as the Rivers of waters he turneth them which way soever it pleaseth him So the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus King of Persia after that their seventy yeers captivity in Babylon as also Darius and others to write in their behalf sundry most favourable Edicts for their return into their own Country again with large liberality for the re-edifying of the Temple of God in Jerusalem For the Lord had made them glad and turned the heart of the King of Asshur unto them to encourage them in the work of the house of God even the God of Israel Therefore Ezra blesseth the Lord for all these extraordinary favours saying blessed be the Lord God of our Fathers which so hath put in the Kings heart to beautifie the House of the Lord that is in Jerusalem c. Yea rather then fail of his promised deliverance to his people when they cry unto him in their distress He will rebuke even Kings for their sakes As he did Pharaoh King of Aegypt in the days of old with this peremptory command by the hand of Moses over and over Let my people go that they may serve me or if thou wilt not c. inflicting upon them one plague after another till at length they were forced to drive them away as it is in that place Rise up get you out from among my people and go serve the Lord as ye have said And the Egyptians did force the people because they would send them out of the Land in hast for they said we die all giving them favour in the mean time in the sight of
