daughter to his sonne nor take his daughter vnto thy sonne a reason is added For they will cause thy sonne to turn away from me to serue other Gods Then will the wrath of the Lord wax hote against you destroy thée sodainely wherefore Abraham caused the eldest seruaunt of his houshold to sweare that he shoulde not take a Wife vnto his sonne of the daughters of the Cananits amōg whō he dwelt but that he shoulde goe vnto his countrie to his kindred take a wife vnto his son Isaac The selfe same care we sée to be in Rebecca Isaac for their son Iacob and therefore after that she séemed to feare least he shoulde take one of the Daughters of Heth to wife and had vttered the same gréefe vnto her husband Isaac playnlye commaundeth his sonne not to take a wife of the Daughters of Canaan And in the new Testament it is sayd Be not vnequally yoked with the Infidels O but say some I can reclayme her from vnbeléefe vngodlines to faith vertue Indéede if thou were as strong as Sāpson and as wise as Salomon it might peraduenture sinke into my braine but if the strongest and the wisest were not able to resist how shal the weakest and the simplest be able to stande This is reckoned as one of the greatestreasons of Sampsous ruine for taking a wife of the Daughters of the Philistines And this is accounted as one of the weightiest causes of Salomons fall that hee tooke him many wiues of outlandishe women and strange nations whiche turned away his hart from the seruice of the true God after their false Gods And this is iudged to be one of the sins for which God brought an vniuersall floud vpon the whole earth and the inhabitants therof For that the sonnes of God saw the daughters of men that they were fayre they tooke thē wiues of all that they liked Let vs therefore beware and learne now at the length to deale more warily according to Gods holy councell in this and other matters then heretofore we haue done Furthermore this is to be noted that in that the Apostle will haue euerye man to haue his own wife and euery wife her owne husband that he doth vtterlye take away poligamie or multitude of wiues at one time A doctrine not vunecessary and vnfit to be treated of in this place because as I heare say I do in part beléue it that there bee some in Kent doe defend the same I can not speake of this and other things so largelye as I would because I haue bene hitherto somwhat long I wil say both concerning this and other thinges also that follow my mind bréefely Whosoeuer doth defend this as lawfull and necessary not only striueth agaynst the doctrine of Gods spirit in this place deliuered who sayth singularly euery man must haue his own wife not wiues but also quite clean turneth vpside down the first institution of mariage for god in Paradise in the time of mās innocēcy joining woman vnto man as a helper said For this cause shall a man forsake father mother cleaue to his wife they two shal be one flesh not they three not they foure c. but they two This is also to be considered the the first breach of this ordinance began not in the houshold of the faithfull but in the wicked séed stock of cursed Cain for it is said in Genesis that Lamech who came of Cains kindred tooke ij wiues the name of the one was Adah and the name of the other was Zillah So that it appeareth that all that either put in practise to haue many wiues or defend the same are of Cains progeny that is a frowarde adulterous wicked possessiō neither is there any reason why they should to this end obiect the examples of the Patriarks and godly mē of the old law be fore the cōming of our sauiour christ for in thē it was a great sinne infirmity and had not the Lord in mercy and in the death of Iesus who was the lamb killed frō the beginning of the world blotted out their sin they had felt the payne and punishmēt wch is euerlasting death You see then the poligamie or multitude of wiues cannot stand by Gods word Let mans wit suppose what it cā this only is the truth the Lord giue vs grace to imbrace and follow the same It followeth Let the husband giue vnto the wife c. Now the Apostle sheweth how we ought to liue after wee be maried first he laieth out a general doctrine of mutual beneuolēce the is of the dutye of the husband toward the wife the wife toward the husbād wheras some haue vnderstood by due beneuolence the debt of mariage the is the satisfying of lust it liketh me not because it is somwhat to narrow I indéed iudge that this moued thē so to expound the same for that it followeth presently afterwardes the wife hath not power of her owne body c. But it will stande more agréeable with truth if we say that to be inferred necessarily as a particular poynt oute of the former because the Apostle here dealeth generally For his meaning is that the husband should doe to the wife the wife toward the husbād one of thē toward that other al duties pertaining to mariage To intreat of thē all particularly I can not at this present neither if I could would occasiō serue the chiefest of thē is that which Peter speaketh of that there be betwixt thē such a consēt vnity of minds that their prayers be not interrupted by which worde it appeareth that priuate praiers were then shold now be vsed in priuate houses wch how much it is obserued let al iudge I feare me that if housholders should be called to accounts in this poynt they wold come very short For wheras they praied morning euening at the least euerye day it is a great matter with vs if we pray once a wéeke in our houses nay I iudge some of vs neither praye in our houses nor in churches but come thither only for fashiō sake this appeareth because ther foloweth so litle fruit of our prayers for if we prayed hartily God wold here our praiers willingly graunt our peticions effectually But we aske many things and obtayne few things the cause is for that we ask thē not aright It followeth The wife hath not power of her own bodie c. The mening is that God hath so created man for woman and woman for man that they cannot well be one without the other vnlesse it be such as vpon whom he hath bestowed the gift of chastitie that sentence serueth also well agaynst Poligamie or pluralitie of wiues For if the bodie of the man be so tyed to the bodie of the woman that the one is subiect to the other it cannot be that the mā hath authority to take more wiues nor the wife to take
