In all these thinges commaunded forbidden we may easily feele seuerall sinnes and corruptions by due examination of our selues seuerallie in euerie one but Christe hath by his death satisfied for our sinnes Rom. 4 25. and hath bene zealous in the obedience of the partes of this lawe that in him we may haue perfect obediēce yet so as by his death we more and more dye vnto these sinnes and by his resurrection be made liuely to serue the Lord sincerely according to his will Ioh. 2. 14. 15. Mark 7. 34. Math. 26. 38. 27. 30. 2. Cor. 6. 14. to the second verse of cap. 7 Hitherto of the commaundement it selfe Now foloweth the reason which is drawn from a double propertie of the Lorde his Ielousie in wrath and his mercie For I the Lord thy God i Euen then being ioyned vnto thee by my mercifull couenaunt as a husband to his wife Chap. 19. 6. A strong God The first title is added to note his great power to doe what hee will so that being preswaded in the firste propertie of his readinesse to punishe and in the second of his readines to reward And first in this of his power we neede not to doubt at all such vse we should make of his Titles Psal 2. 12. 115. 3. 10. Iealous This is a kinde of speach taken from married folkes Hos 2. 2. Ezech 16. who cannot abide their wiues shoulde giue either in affectiō or in gesture countenaunce or any manner of behauiour to others that which appertaineth to them onely and by this wee gather the greatnesse of the sinnes eyther of grosse Idolatrie or any countenaunce vnto it This Ielousie he setteth further forth by the fruite that the Lord punisheth seuerely this sin Visitinge iniquitie i punishing this sinne or the transgressiō of this law in dissoluing this holy bande for so the generall worde Iniquitie and euill is taken somtimes for some speciall great sinne as Deut. 17. 2. Psal 78. 39. And here it appeareth that it must be so taken because it is not a reason of the whole lawe but of this cōmandement only This is further declared by the persons on whom it falleth The thrd and fourth generation which is both because by the fathers sinne disanulling the couenaunt by Idolatrie the child falleth out of the same continuing in that fall is punished iustly for his owne sinne and his fathers both Mat. 23. 25. And therefore that which is added declareth those which are punished Those that hate me That is those that securely cōmit spiritual whoredom against this cōmandement and so this is nothing contray to that Ezech. 18. Exercising benignitie This is the seconde propertie wherein the Lorde declareth his reward towardes the keeper of this Law that is free liberalitie or bountie for so the word signifieth in receiuing them into a couenant of lyfe and blessednesse yea that eternall Act. 2. 37. Out of this wee learne that as a childe to his father when wee shall do all that is commaunded wee are but vnprofitable seruants and haue done but our dutie as if our father leaue vs no patrimonie are wee lesse bound to do our duetie so if the Lord had not bound himselfe by his couenant which came from his free and vndeserued goodnes could we haue claymed any thing by fulfilling because wee did but our dutie for the mercie of creating vs in great dignitie according to his owne likenes in holines and righteousnes But now hauing so many times offended since the knoweledge of his grace and lying in his wrath both by natural corruption and continuall seruing of sinne from the same dailie how is it not mercie onely without all deseruing when he giueth vs by imputation the righteousnes of his Son and so eternal life and thē transforming vs vnto his likenes againe when we are first set freely in possession of eternall ioy Luke 7. 6. 7. 8. Rom. 6. 15. to the 20. Tit. 2. 12. 13. 14. This is enlarged by the persons to whome this is graunted To thousand generations which sheweth that the Lorde in respect of vs setteth his mercie aboue his iustice But hee setteth them forth by their fruites that be pertakers of it That loue him and keepe his commandements By loue hee noteth that this should bee the fountaine from which the outwarde obedience of this commandement should spring so that if that we loue not delight not in the partes of his worship because in trueth we loue him and his glory These thinges are abhominable Iohn 14. 23. His commandements Here as iniquitie was put for the spiritual whordome against this cōmaundement so commaundementes are put for the seueral parts of obedience in this precept as the circumstance of the place doth shew by which wee see all good intentes are shut out As they haue bene seuerely punished of the Lord. Deut. 4. 15. Esay 30. 21. 1. Chron. 15. 13. 2. Chron. 13. 10. 11. Hetherto of that commandement which hath prescribed vs the seueral partes or outward means which we must loue desire c. in his worship which we giue him 3. Commaund In this commandement as afore we must consider first the percept then the reason The precept is Thou shalt not take the name of the Lorde thy God in vaine Take that is make any vse for the word signifieth to take up or lift vp on our shoulders The name of God is his memorial amongst men which being in his titles most properly is
