with_o these_o ninevite_n in_o our_o text_n he_o destroy_v they_o not_o as_o in_o a_o moment_n but_o warn_v and_o threaten_v they_o by_o his_o prophet_n jonah_n here_o yet_o forty_o day_n and_o

to_o bring_v a_o judgement_n upon_o any_o place_n or_o nation_n he_o use_v to_o threaten_v and_o give_v warning_n of_o it_o before_o he_o send_v it_o to_o the_o intent_n that_o such_o as_o fear_v he_o may_v provide_v for_o their_o own_o safety_n thus_o we_o read_v exod._n 9_o that_o god_n threaten_v the_o plague_n of_o hail_n before_o he_o send_v it_o on_o the_o egyptian_n for_o otherwise_o that_o

how_o and_o why_o god_n threaten_v and_o give_v warning_n of_o his_o judgement_n let_v we_o now_o for_o the_o close_a of_o all_o apply_v this_o to_o ourselves_o examine_v whither_o or_o no_o as_o god_n here_o threaten_v nineveh_n so_o he_o have_v not_o likewise_o threaten_v and_o give_v we_o warning_n of_o his_o judgement_n and_o first_o for_o god_n extraordinary_a way_n of_o premonition_n for_o the_o former_a branch_n of_o it_o i_o will_v not_o say_v that_o god_n have_v warn_v we_o by_o immediate_a inspiration_n no_o let_v enthusiast_n say_v what_o they_o will_v that_o way_n of_o warning_n be_v long_o cease_v god_n reveal_v neither_o himself_n nor_o his_o intention_n to_o we_o in_o these_o day_n any_o other_o way_n than_o he_o and_o they_o be_v reveal_v in_o his_o write_a word_n but_o though_o he_o have_v not_o warn_v we_o by_o inspiration_n yet_o he_o have_v warn_v we_o by_o apparition_n by_o wonder_n in_o heaven_n above_o and_o by_o sign_n in_o the_o earth_n beneath_o as_o in_o our_o english_a chronicle_n we_o have_v manifold_a example_n second_o for_o god_n ordinary_a way_n of_o premonition_n for_o the_o former_a branch_n of_o it_o god_n have_v warn_v we_o of_o judgement_n by_o the_o ministration_n of_o his_o word_n we_o may_v read_v 1_o king_n 19.17_o that_o elisha_n have_v a_o sword_n as_o well_o as_o hazael_n or_o jehu_n he_o that_o escape_v the_o sword_n of_o jehu_n shall_v elisha_n slay_v and_o when_o elisha_n draw_v his_o sword_n when_o god_n minister_n unsheathe_v the_o sword_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n when_o they_o give_v warning_n of_o those_o judgement_n which_o they_o see_v come_v on_o a_o kingdom_n it_o be_v a_o manifest_a argument_n that_o the_o devour_a sword_n the_o sword_n of_o hazael_n and_o jehn_n the_o sword_n of_o war_n and_o the_o enemy_n be_v at_o hand_n and_o have_v not_o elisha_n and_o jonah_n long_o since_o draw_v their_o sword_n have_v not_o god_n minister_n for_o many_o
