all_o saint_n upon_o the_o golden_a altar_n which_o be_v before_o the_o throne_n we_o hear_v before_o that_o when_o the_o course_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v stop_v by_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o instrument_n yet_o god_n be_v very_o careful_a for_o the_o safety_n and_o seal_v up_o of_o his_o own_o servant_n so_o likewise_o we_o be_v now_o to_o hear_v of_o the_o like_a care_n and_o providence_n for_o now_o that_o error_n and_o heresy_n be_v to_o be_v sow_v in_o the_o world_n whereby_o many_o be_v corrupt_v and_o that_o he_o himself_o from_o heaven_n do_v proclaim_v open_a enmity_n against_o the_o despiser_n of_o his_o gospel_n by_o give_v they_o up_o to_o blindness_n and_o error_n he_o do_v double_a his_o care_n and_o providence_n to_o all_o his_o faithful_a worshipper_n for_o here_o we_o do_v plain_o see_v that_o the_o church_n have_v a_o mediator_n and_o that_o he_o which_o keep_v israel_n neither_o slumber_v nor_o sleep_v and_o therefore_o when_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n do_v most_o of_o all_o break_v forth_o upon_o the_o world_n for_o the_o contempt_n of_o his_o grace_n yet_o the_o church_n be_v remember_v and_o set_v in_o safety_n with_o all_o her_o child_n for_o her_o prayer_n come_v up_o before_o god_n and_o be_v accept_v through_o the_o mediator_n and_o this_o be_v the_o sense_n and_o drift_n of_o this_o three_o verse_n by_o this_o angel_n be_v mean_v jesus_n christ_n the_o angel_n of_o the_o covenant_n as_o we_o have_v hear_v before_o who_o be_v not_o a_o angel_n by_o nature_n but_o by_o office_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o in_o the_o old_a law_n there_o be_v a_o golden_a altar_n and_o a_o golden_a censor_n on_o which_o the_o priest_n do_v burn_v sweet_a incense_n before_o the_o lord_n which_o do_v figure_v the_o mediation_n of_o christ_n in_o who_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v accept_v now_o here_o the_o holy_a ghost_n allude_v to_o that_o sacrifice_a priesthood_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n where_o incense_n be_v offer_v at_o the_o altar_n which_o now_o be_v the_o sweet_a savour_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n through_o who_o both_o we_o and_o all_o our_o sacrifice_n be_v season_v and_o sweeten_v who_o therefore_o be_v this_o angel_n but_o christ_n what_o be_v the_o sweet_a odour_n with_o the_o which_o the_o prayer_n of_o all_o saint_n come_v before_o god_n but_o the_o most_o sweet_a mediation_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o smoke_n of_o the_o odour_n which_o with_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o saint_n go_v up_o before_o god_n out_o of_o the_o angel_n hand_n sure_o the_o sweet_a incense_n of_o christ_n mediation_n wherewith_o our_o prayer_n be_v spice_a and_o perfume_v that_o they_o may_v be_v as_o sweet_a incense_n of_o christ_n mediation_n wherewith_o our_o prayer_n be_v spice_a and_o perfume_v that_o they_o may_v be_v as_o sweet_a smell_a sacrifice_n in_o the_o nostril_n of_o god_n for_o as_o water_v cast_v into_o a_o fire_n raise_v a_o smoke_n so_o the_o tear_n of_o the_o faithful_a besprinkle_v in_o their_o prayer_n make_v they_o as_o sweet_a incense_n acceptable_a to_o god_n through_o christ_n the_o sum_n of_o all_o be_v this_o that_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o these_o heresy_n and_o those_o hellish_a trouble_n which_o shall_v be_v raise_v up_o by_o the_o pope_n and_o his_o clergy_n the_o turk_n and_o his_o army_n as_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n we_o shall_v see_v the_o elect_a have_v their_o prayer_n hear_v for_o their_o preservation_n by_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n 5._o verse_n 5._o and_o the_o angel_n take_v the_o censor_n and_o fill_v it_o with_o the_o fire_n of_o the_o altar_n and_o cast_v it_o into_o the_o earth_n and_o there_o be_v voice_n and_o trumpet_n thundering_n and_o lightning_n and_o earthquake_n here_o we_o see_v how_o jesus_n christ_n take_v the_o censor_n and_o fill_v it_o with_o the_o fire_n of_o the_o altar_n that_o be_v the_o grace_n and_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o so_o the_o fire_n of_o the_o altas_n be_v take_v in_o esay_n in_o this_o sense_n it_o be_v say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v baptize_v with_o fire_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o be_v the_o gift_n and_o grace_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o this_o sense_n also_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v rest_n upon_o the_o disciple_n in_o the_o likeness_n of_o cleave_a tongue_n like_o fire_n whereupon_o they_o be_v all_o fill_v with_o gift_n and_o grace_n the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v compare_v to_o fire_n because_o he_o burn_v out_o our_o dross_n purge_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o set_v they_o on_o fire_n with_o the_o burn_a love_n and_o zeal_n of_o god_n glory_n so_o than_o it_o follow_v that_o as_o before_o there_o be_v provision_n have_v for_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o church_n by_o her_o mediator_n so_o here_o many_o heavenly_a gift_n and_o grace_n be_v bestow_v upon_o she_o for_o christ_n cast_v this_o fire_n of_o the_o altar_n upon_o the_o earth_n that_o be_v upon_o his_o dwell_n in_o the_o earth_n hereupon_o it_o be_v say_v that_o there_o be_v voice_n and_o thundering_n etc._n etc._n that_o be_v all_o manner_n of_o broil_n tumult_n uproar_n slaughter_n and_o division_n for_o after_o the_o

and_o tumult_n thunder_a and_o lightning_n and_o we_o must_v look_v for_o such_o stir_n after_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n while_o there_o be_v a_o world_n and_o a_o devil_n therefore_o our_o lord_n jesus_n say_v he_o come_v not_o to_o bring_v peace_n into_o the_o earth_n 10.34_o mat._n 10.34_o but_o fire_n and_o sword_n and_o to_o set_v a_o man_n at_o variance_n against_o his_o father_n

it_o be_v absurd_a to_o imagine_v that_o any_o thing_n in_o this_o verse_n be_v to_o be_v take_v literal_o see_v in_o the_o literal_a sense_n there_o be_v never_o any_o such_o matter_n therefore_o

therefore_o god_n send_v they_o strong_a delusion_n that_o they_o shall_v believe_v in_o lie_n for_o as_o before_o we_o have_v hear_v how_o the_o world_n be_v most_o fearful_o punish_v with_o

be_v far_o great_a for_o now_o we_o be_v to_o hear_v and_o understand_v not_o only_o of_o the_o error_n and_o heresy_n whereby_o a_o way_n and_o passage_n be_v make_v by_o degree_n as_o it_o be_v by_o

who_o afterward_o he_o translate_v actual_o into_o the_o very_a kingdom_n of_o glory_n by_o silence_n here_o be_v mean_v the_o great_a attention_n of_o the_o church_n because_o great_a thing_n be_v
