which_o the_o kingdom_n be_v lay_v and_o it_o can_v neither_o be_v erect_v or_o be_v erect_v can_v stand_v when_o this_o be_v go_v now_o as_o religion_n be_v necessary_a to_o uphold_v state_n and_o

shall_v soon_o lose_v it_o if_o we_o do_v not_o meet_v together_o to_o join_v in_o the_o common_a office_n of_o it_o and_o we_o shall_v soon_o be_v tempt_v to_o have_v the_o less_o concern_v for_o one_o another_o safety_n and_o happiness_n when_o we_o be_v not_o tie_v together_o by_o the_o bond_n of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o religion_n in_o which_o when_o we_o hearty_o join_v to_o serve_v god_n it_o make_v we_o look_v upon_o one_o another_o as_o brethren_n dear_a to_o the_o same_o god_n and_o father_n of_o we_o all_o and_o therefore_o dear_a to_o one_o another_o this_o the_o psalmist_n

have_v all_o the_o israelite_n to_o look_v upon_o themselves_o as_o brethren_n be_v all_o descend_v from_o one_o and_o the_o same_o stock_n and_o have_v also_o the_o same_o god_n for_o their_o

then_o especial_o when_o they_o all_o meet_v in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o place_n to_o worship_n god_n together_o with_o one_o heart_n and_o with_o one_o soul_n which_o link_v they_o close_o than_o any_o other_o bond_n can_v do_v and_o provide_v best_a for_o their_o common_a security_n for_o it_o appear_v by_o what_o follow_v he_o chief_o aim_v at_o this_o assemble_v themselves_o unanimous_o together_o as_o the_o word_n be_v in_o the_o hebrew_n o_o how_o good_a and_o pleasant_a be_v it_o for_o brethren_n to_o dwell_v even_o together_o i._n e._n to_o meet_v all_o at_o god_n house_n as_o common_a to_o they_o all_o nothing_o more_o delightful_a than_o to_o behold_v such_o a_o general_a assembly_n which_o he_o illustrate_v by_o two_o similitude_n first_o of_o the_o precious_a ointment_n which_o run_v down_o from_o the_o head_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n to_o the_o very_a skirt_n of_o his_o garment_n and_o then_o by_o the_o dew_n of_o heaven_n which_o make_v the_o hill_n of_o hermon_n and_o the_o mountain_n of_o zion_n nigh_o to_o which_o the_o temple_n stand_v exceed_v fruitful_a and_o then_o in_o conclusion_n he_o add_v the_o reason_n why_o this_o be_v so_o joyful_a a_o sight_n and_o so_o beneficial_a for_o there_o the_o lord_n command_v the_o blessing_n even_o life_n for_o ever_o more_o he_o pour_v down_o his_o blessing_n of_o all_o sort_n as_o the_o heaven_n do_v the_o

who_o only_o can_v make_v they_o happy_a that_o be_v mean_v by_o life_n and_o can_v make_v they_o so_o for_o evermore_o in_o order_n to_o which_o he_o take_v care_v his_o divine_a service_n shall_v be_v perpetual_o perform_v in_o the_o temple_n whither_o they_o be_v to_o resort_v to_o do_v their_o duty_n to_o he_o and_o to_o implore_v his_o grace_n and_o favour_n towards_o they_o and_o i_o can_v think_v it_o fall_v out_o by_o chance_n that_o next_o to_o the_o psalm_n now_o mention_v be_v immediate_o place_v a_o solemn_a exhortation_n in_o the_o cxxxiu_o ps_n unto_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n to_o attend_v constant_o upon_o their_o duty_n in_o the_o sanctuary_n there_o to_o praise_v the_o lord_n who_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o to_o give_v a_o blessing_n to_o his_o people_n and_o pray_v for_o their_o prosperity_n out_o of_o zion_n as_o that_o psalm_n conclude_v i_o end_v this_o with_o the_o observation_n of_o a_o wise_a man_n that_o we_o be_v member_n of_o a_o public_a body_n aught_o to_o serve_v it_o the_o best_a we_o can_v now_o all_o the_o service_n we_o do_v as_o member_n of_o it_o be_v public_a service_n which_o be_v far_o more_o worthy_a than_o what_o we_o act_n for_o ourselves_o private_o and_o distinct_o as_o much_o as_o a_o whole_a society_n exceed_v the_o worth_n of_o any_o one_o man_n in_o it_o and_o what_o service_n be_v there_o we_o can_v do_v it_o like_v to_o that_o of_o maintain_v god_n true_a religion_n by_o serious_a attendance_n with_o due_a care_n and_o frequency_n upon_o the_o public_a office_n thereof_o whereby_o we_o shall_v exceed_o promote_v the_o common_a good_a of_o all_o and_o maintain_v society_n itself_o by_o which_o we_o be_v keep_v and_o preserve_v in_o safety_n and_o prosperity_n for_o by_o do_v public_a honour_n to_o god_n we_o shall_v draw_v down_o public_a blessing_n upon_o ourselves_o god_n himself_o will_v bless_v we_o as_o the_o psalmist_n speak_v he_o will_v bless_v they_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n both_o small_a and_o great_a the_o lord_n shall_v increase_v you_o more_o and_o more_o you_o and_o your_o child_n you_o be_v the_o bless_a of_o the_o lord_n that_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n cxv_o psal_n 13_o 14_o 15._o observe_v the_o title_n he_o give_v himself_o the_o lord_n that_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o you_o will_v not_o think_v it_o suitable_a to_o his_o superexcellent_a and_o transcendent_a majesty_n to_o have_v his_o worship_n confine_v to_o your_o closet_n or_o to_o your_o private_a house_n but_o make_v it_o as_o public_a as_o the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n be_v which_o be_v expose_v to_o the_o view_n of_o all_o in_o that_o spacious_a temple_n of_o his_o as_o the_o ancient_n be_v wont_a to_o call_v the_o world_n of_o which_o the_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n

and_o have_v a_o close_a connexion_n with_o this_o other_o which_o i_o have_v now_o handle_v for_o he_o have_v form_v we_o to_o live_v together_o in_o society_n and_o to_o keep_v close_o unite_v in_o

whereby_o we_o may_v acknowledge_v he_o so_o to_o be_v and_o there_o be_v no_o way_n like_o this_o of_o meet_v together_o in_o the_o great_a multitude_n that_o can_v assemble_v to_o magnify_v and_o
