jewish_a church_n tell_v we_o that_o there_o be_v fifteen_o step_n or_o stair_n by_o which_o as_o by_o so_o many_o degree_n they_o go_v up_o to_o the_o temple_n and_o that_o upon_o their_o solemn_a

there_o be_v a_o three_o opinion_n that_o these_o psalm_n be_v so_o call_v because_o when_o the_o levite_n do_v sing_v they_o they_o do_v by_o degree_n raise_v their_o note_n advance_v their_o voice_n

but_o three_o the_o three_o thing_n here_o considerable_a be_v the_o subject_a matter_n which_o this_o psalm_n contain_v in_o it_o and_o the_o most_o remarkable_a passage_n therein_o be_v these_o two_o 1_o sy_n david_n exceed_v joy_n for_o his_o restoration_n to_o the_o place_n of_o god_n public_a worship_n from_o which_o to_o his_o unspeakable_a grief_n he_o have_v be_v so_o late_o banish_v during_o the_o whole_a time_n of_o david_n exile_n there_o be_v nothing_o that_o do_v so_o much_o disquiet_v david_n soul_n as_o the_o consideration_n of_o his_o force_a absence_n from_o the_o sanctuary_n of_o god_n none_o of_o his_o trouble_n none_o of_o his_o misfortune_n do_v he_o ever_o lament_v so_o long_o and_o so_o oft_o as_o that_o but_o when_o once_o david_n have_v recover_v his_o former_a liberty_n when_o the_o door_n of_o the_o sanctuary_n do_v again_o stand_v open_a to_o he_o like_o a_o man_n transport_v with_o joy_n he_o abrupt_o break_v out_o into_o this_o expression_n i_o

place_n of_o the_o great_a joy_n and_o pleasure_n 2_o dly_z the_o second_o of_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v most_o considerable_a in_o this_o psalm_n be_v david_n earnest_a request_n both_o to_o

pray_v for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o what_o he_o request_v other_o man_n to_o do_v he_o do_v himself_o back_v his_o exhortation_n with_o his_o own_o example_n for_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o jerusalem_n be_v then_o the_o royal_a city_n the_o chief_a place_n of_o god_n most_o solemn_a worship_n and_o a_o type_n of_o the_o universal_a church_n david_n put_v up_o this_o petition_n to_o heaven_n peace_n be_v within_o thy_o wall_n and_o prosperity_n or_o as_o our_o old_a translation_n read_v it_o plenteousness_n within_o thy_o palace_n now_o from_o the_o matter_n and_o method_n of_o this_o petition_n which_o david_n here_o present_v to_o his_o god_n there_o do_v very_o natural_o arise_v these_o two_o plain_a conclusion_n first_o that_o peace_n be_v a_o blessing_n that_o be_v very_o desirable_a why_o else_o do_v david_n persuade_v his_o neighbour_n to_o beg_v it_o and_o why_o else_o do_v he_o himself_o so_o earnest_o petition_v god_n to_o grant_v it_o second_o that_o prosperity_n or_o plenteousness_n be_v common_o the_o fruit_n and_o consequence_n of_o peace_n this_o i_o observe_v from_o the_o method_n and_o order_n of_o david_n petition_n peace_n be_v within_o

without_o peace_n first_o obtain_v prosperity_n or_o plenteousness_n can_v hardly_o be_v expect_v first_o the_o first_o conclusion_n which_o do_v natural_o arise_v from_o the_o text_n be_v this_o namely_o that_o peace_n be_v a_o blessing_n that_o be_v very_o desirable_a indeed_o and_o so_o it_o be_v 1_o st_z in_o the_o private_a family_n of_o particular_a men._n 2_o dly_a in_o the_o public_a
