the Temple into consideration and the calamity befell them in regard thereof with the cause of it The Temple here is described First by it's appellation It 's his Ornament Secondly by it's qualification It s Beautifull Thirdly From it's end set for Majesty or from the manner set in Majesty Fourthly The Author Hee set it The calamities befell it and them are First Rejection or separation of it I have set it farre from them Secondly Tradition of it into hands of others And they are set out to be First Strangers Secondly The wicked of the Earth v. 21. Thirdly Depredation It shall be for a prey and for a spoyle Ibid. Fourthly Prophanation They shall pollute it Ibid. Fifthly Aversion and that of the face of God v. 22. My face will I turne also from them Sixthly Contamination of the Sanctum Sanctorum They shall pollute my secret place The cause of all these evils is set downe in the 20 Verse They made the Images of their abominations and of their detestable things therein As for the beauty of his Ornament he set it in Majestie Some Expositors interpret these words not of the Temple but of their Silver Gold Jewels and such like precious things with which they were deckt as a Bride for which they should have been dutifull and thankfull but they abused all to Idolatry pride and service of their lusts and so provoked God to take all from them Others expound them onely of the Temple Jonathas Rabbi David de Templo interpretantur Maldonat to whose judgment I incline and that upon these considerations First It s sayd Hee set it which takes off the conection of this Verse with the former had it been meant of their Gold Silver c. it should have run Plurally They cast their Silver in the streets they shall not be satisfied and so they set the beauty of their Ornament for pride whereas its Hee set not the people but God And if it be urged He set their Gold Silver the beauty and Ornament of his people in Majesty or for Excellency it suits not with what follows They made Images of their abominations and detestable things therein it should have been thereof 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 in e● Montan Piscat Jun. Polan if that had been the sense but it s therein agreeable with the Originall and so choise Expositors render it Secondly Those words in the 21 Verse referre more properly to the Temple then to their Silver and Gold holy things are subject to pollution more then common Some to helpe this Interpret the word for pollute to kill and make the sense 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 They shall kill their Captives and so referre it to the men not their Wealth or if to Wealth then they render it vilifie they shall vilifie their Silver and Gold they have made their beauty and ornament but I see no cause why the sense of the word should be changed in this verse When it s taken for polluting in the next verse they shall pollute my secret place 4. In this 22. verse he speaks of the secret place the holy of holies which was in the Temple and hence to mee is an argument that he spake of the Temple The beauty of his Ornament These words are a metaphoricall description of the Temple whereby it s likened to a beautiful garment which becomes the party wears it or to any precious thing that adorns the body Exod. 33.4 No man did put on him his ornament That is his chiefe apparell and other precious things which might adorn the body Ornaments were choise things 2 Sam. 1.24 Judges 8.26 The Hebrew word signifies choise robes silken vailes costly chaines crownes c. What ever excellency may be fastned to the body or garments of a man such an ornament was the Temple to God and to the Jews First to God It was his dwelling place Psalm 74.7 And no mean one Isa 60.7 Hee cals it the house of his glory So great was the glory of it that in comparison thereof the second Temple was nothing Hag. 2.3 There multitudes of his people met prayed whence it 's named an house of prayer Isa 56.7 There they sang praises Psal 150.1 and God there inhabited the praises of Israel Psal 22.3 There they sacrificed 2 Chr. 11.16 And it was an house of sacrifice thither did Kings bring presents unto the Lord Ps 68.29 Kings did honor the place garnished the Temple with great gifts Selucus King of Asia of his own revenues bare all the costs belonging to the servic● of the sacrifice 2 Mach. 3.2 3. By his worship there he was distinguished and made knowne from all false Gods there the Saints desired to dwell to behold the Lords beauty Psal 27.4 And see his power Psal 63.2 There every one speaks of his glory Psal 29.9 The earth is full of the glory of God but the Temple is fuller there is the chiefe brightest glory glory that affects every eye heart and tongue all these are ornaments and honour to God 2. To the Jewes If we should look at the structure only it was one of the stateliest and most magnificent buildings that ever the world had there were 150000. workmen employed about it 1 Kings 5.15 16. And 7. yeares in building Chap. 6.37 38. The Apostles wondred at the goodly stones and glory of the second Temple Luke 21.5 which were inconsiderable to those of the first Hag. 2.3 In this respect it was a great ornament to Jerusalem and the Jewish Nation But it was the house of the great God Ezra 5.8 The house called by his name Jer. 7.11 Th●re he made his people joyfull and accepted their offerings Isa 56.7 There they had fatnesse Psal 36.8 Loving-kindnesse Psal 48.9 Help in their distresses Psal 20.2 In Ezek. 24 21.25 you have these expressions 1. It 's cal'd their strength 2. The excellency of their strength 3. The desire of their eyes 4. That which their soules pittyed least it should be destroyed 5. Their glory 6. The joy of their glory all which shew the Temple was an ornament to them The beauty of his Ornament The Temple was beautifull Isa 64.11 Our holy and beautifull house is burnt up with fire There was a material beauty in it as you may read 1 Kings 6. and 2 Chron. 3.6.8 He garnished the house with precious stones for beauty and the gold was gold of Parvaim all was overlaid with fine gold which made it glorious there was a spiritual beauty in it Psal 96.6 Strength and beauty are in his Sanctuary There was the beauty of holinesse Psal 29.2 There was beautiful order beautiful worship beautiful ordinances and a most beauteous God Psal 27.4 Whose glorious presence and lovely truths drew the eyes and hearts of the godly thither Isa 2.3 Come let us goe up to the mountain of the Lord and he will teach us of his wayes Hence Sion the Mount where the Temple was 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 is

for 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 take the word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 for 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 and so f●ll into that errour which is not great for one heart was another heart then that they had The Hebrew is 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 one heart Heart By it here we may understand 1. The judgement or understa●d ng so it s taken Ephes 4.18 heart and understanding are the same there 2. For the will and aff●ctions so Prov. 23.26 Matth. 22.37 3. For the conscience so it s taken 1 John 3.20 One. Is taken in the word 1. For likenesse 1 Sam. 6.4 One Plague was on them all That is a like plague 2. For samenesse 2 Cor. 11.2 I have espoused you Rev. 21.21 Every Gate was of one pearle that is of the same pearle to one husband Heb 10.14 By one Offring he hath perfected for ever them that are Sanctified One is put for the same in both places 3. For that is united and makes one Gen. 11.6 Behold the People is one They were united t●gether as one man in the Building of Babel We may understand all here that God would unite them together as one man give them likenesse and samenesse of heart Some thinke by one heart is meant the mutuall consent to hasten to Jerusalem to build the Temple As they were one people of one language and Spirit in building Babel so these should be one People of one minde and language in rebuilding Jerusalem But if it should be confind to this sense it were no spirituall mercy and here God is promising spirituall mercies Th●s sense may be included but there is something beyond it We will enquire what heart was antecedently in this People which will give us light for the better understanding of this onenesse of heart 1. They had a backsliding apostatiz●ng heart in them 1 K 18.37 Elijah prayes that their hearts may be turned back againe Jer. 5.23 This People hath a revolting and Rebellious heart Ezek. 2.3 They are cald A rebellious Nation and Ezek. 6.9 God saith he was Broken with their whorish heart which departed from him They went out from God to Idols and to false wayes of worship They walked after the imaginations of their hearts after other Gods to serrve and worship them Jer 13.10 2. They had a slippery unfaithfull heart Psal 78.8 Their spirit was not stedfast with God they were off and on no certainty in them but full of changes Hence they are sayd to gad much about to change their way Jer. 2.36 and in Isa 24.5 To change the Ordinances and in Ezek. 5.6 To change Gods judgements into wickednesse more then the Nations 3. They had a deceitfull hypocriticall heart Isa 44.20 A deceived heart hath turned him aside and Chapter 10.6 God calls them an hypocriticall Nation they pretended love and obedience to God but Jer. 3.10 Judah serv'd God fainedly in falsehood is the Hebrew their hearts were deceitfull false 4. They had a divided froward bitter heart Hos 10.2 Their heart is divided God had a peice of it and the World a peice Ezek 33.31 and their Idols a peice Ezek. 14.3 And it was contentious and froward Isa 57.17 He went on frowardly in the way of his heart They had divided hearts divided tongues and divided wayes Manasseh was against Ephraim Ephraim against Manasseh and both against Judah Now this one heart here mentioned is opposite to all these 1. God would give them one heart and that is an heart should be for himself and not for Idols an heart should not withdraw or turne back to any false wayes but cleave to himselfe onely After they came out of Babylon they never could indure Idols more God had separated their hearts from them and therefore upon their returne God promised they should take away all detestable things vers 18. 2. An heart faithfull and stedfast that should hold fast the things of God and not be given to change Hence Jer 32.39 God saith I will give them one heart and one way that they may feare me for ever Their heart shall besetled fixed in my way and never looke out and wander after other wayes 3. An honest syncere heart free from hypocricy guile and lying Zech. 8.3 Jerusalem shall be called a City of truth The inside and outside should be the same intentions words and actions should be correspondent 4. An united loving peacable heart as they shall have one God be firme to his way and syncere in that way so they shall have sweet communion together strife bitternesse Isa 11.9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountaine division shall not be found amongst them Isa 60.18 Violence shall no more be heard in the Land There should be much unitie much love and mutuall agreement betweene them they sh●uld have but one heart Vnum est ens indivisum in se Vnius quidditas Scaliger Exercit. 65. Num. 2. Suarez in Metaph est essendi indivisibilitas O●hers say that is one which is Indivisum a se And divisum ab omni alio Such an heart they should have an heart undivided in it selfe and divided from all things heterogeneall and of a dividing nature as God he is one simply absolutely individed in himselfe and mostly divided from every thing differing from himselfe Gal. 3.20 God is one and one is oppos'd to many so that they shal have one heart not many hearts This onenesse of heart may be considered 1. As respecting themselves and so fi●st as it includes the judgment and affections they shall not dissent and crosse one the other but when truth is in the understanding the affections shall close with it oft time there is much truth in the heads of men but no love to truth in their hearts 2 Thes 2.10 They received not the love of the truth the truth was revealed made love to their soules appeared very lovely and beautifully but they had no love to it John 3.19 Light is come into the World and men loved darknesse rather then light their affections closed with their own lusts and errors but it should be otherwise here they should have a heart towards truth not divided from truth 2. As it comprehends the will and conscience they shall not be one against another sometimes conscience dictates and tels men they must doe or not doe such things and their wills carry them a wrong way Rom. 1.32 their hearts told them that they did such things as are there mentioned were worthy of death yet their wills carryed them to doe those things and to delight in them So in the 18 Vers they held the truth in unrighteousnesse their consciences told them it was truth and to be obeyed but their wills were against obeying that truth so that here was not one heart in them Here the promise is Will and Conscience shall be one 3. As it looks at the intention and practice many men have one heart within and another without faire pretences but foule

in Heaven and in their owne hearts These were justified for going out of Sion into Babylon surely then God will not condemne men for comming out of Babylon into Sion When we left Rome and Romish trash we had good warrant for it and so Luther who took the first step thence For indulgencies troubled Luther ●nd when he Preached against them the Romish Priests d d alto fastu disdaine his Preaching he heard the way of truth blasphemed saw men were forced to new Articles of Faith and himselfe was compelled to submit to S●tanicall Doctrine these were just causes to induce Luther to leave the Romish Babylon And therefore he was unjustly excommunicated by Pope Leo in whose Bull this is made the cause Mort. Grand impost p. 335. because he denyed the Church to have power to create new Articles of faith But the Lord hath justified his separation from them and ours since him th●ir Idolatrous Masse their corrupt Doctrines denying of the Cup to the people c. are just grounds for us and others to leave them for if Rome be a Church We have not left the word of God the Apostles of Christ or Churches they instituted but wee are gone ab hypocritarum contagione Alsted it s not onely subject to errours as other Churches are but more subject to erring then any other Church Christian and the most Schismaticall of all Christian Churches and the onely Church against which there is a Prophesie in the Gospell of falling from the Faith which three last things that learned man Morton shews and he hath a section its the 7. of his 15. Ch. to shew what may be judged necessary causes of separation from any particular Churches as obstinacy of errour in Teachers affected ignorance obduration of people Idolatry in Gods worship tyranny and persecution against the true and syncere professors to which I conceive this may further be added that if a Church be so defiled that the Members of it cannot partake of the Ordinances without sinne having used all meanes for redresse they may justly depart so it be in a peaceable manner and God will justifie them 8. Where much may be pretended for truth of Churchship there may be no Church Same mak● notes of the true Church 1. Succession There can be no true succession without true Doctrine Stapleton those at Jerusalem in Ezekiels dayes Priests and people succeeded Aron Eli and other Priests and Levites that were faithfull but at this time they were both Priests and people become fearfully Idolatrous Frustra allegatur successio personarum ubi non est successio formae 2. Carnall seed They were of kin to Jeremiah Ezekiel Daniel and other godly ones in Babylon they were Abrahams The Saracens are from Hagar and Abraham though for honour they chose to be cal'd from Sarah yet these are not the true Church Davids seed yet this made them not a true Church therefore Jeremiah cals Judah a harlot Chap. 3.8 3. Multitudes here were a greater multitude at J●rusalem then in Babylon but what were they A multitude of Idolators oppressors scoffers persecutors and such materialls are fitter to make a Tower of Babel then a Temple in Sion Multitudo vesparum non apum 4. They dwell at Jerusalem in Judea the holy City the holy Land but they had defiled both with their abominations and neither of those added any holinesse to them Men at Jerusalem and of Jerusalem were worse then those in Babylon I●s not Jerusal●m or the locall bounds of Judea can make these the true Church 5. Prosperity outward pompe greatnesse glory these men at Jerusalem had what the World and creatures could afford them plenty honour liberty Unity among them Vnity in idolatrie oppression and they in Babylon were poor Captives despised villified scorned ones the glory of the Church is internall not externall a●d what glory had the mourners in Jerusalem 6. The Temple and worship of it had these men at Jerusalem the Captives had no Temple no sacrifices no prosperity no holy Land or City no multitudes no succession yet they were the Church of God and not those for God is wro●h with them of Jerusalem for thinking themselves the Church when as they were none and un-Churching the other when as they were the true Church and are cal'd by God the house of Israel and it further appeares that those of Jerusalem were not the true Church because they were destinated to destruction and as sore judgements as ever people were Chap. 5.9 10. and six slaughter-men designed to slay them utterly Chap. 9. The truth of Churchship is to be fetched from other things It s Caetus fidelium saith our Article such as professe Christ and his Gospell and practice answerably such as are orderly united and observe Divine order in the things of God The word may be truly Preached to those are no Church and the seales administred to those are a false Church as at this time Circumcision and the Passover Ordinances are food and maintenance of the Church rather then marks of it Ephes 4.12 the Apostles and other Officers in the Church were given 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 for the joyning together of the Saints and putting them as members of the body in their right places Vt omnia apte inter se cohaereant Col. 2.5 6. 9. It s Gods mind and will that those are strong highly favoured of God should look at those under beneath them as Brethren there were many in Babylon questionlesse who were meane in knowledge low in naturals weake in faith tainted with some errours and corruptions of Jerusalem if not of Babylon yet saith God Thy Brethren thy Brethren Where there is any thing of God or Christ though many and great infirmities accompany and cloud the same we should look upon them as Brethren When Christ saw a little morall good in the young man he look'd upon him and lov'd him Mark 10.21 and shall we see any spirituall good in any and not love them and use them as Brethren Looke onely at the good and graces are in one another and not at the weaknesses You can eye a little Gold in much earth and why not a little grace Gal. 6.2 Beare yee one anothers burdens and so fulfill the Law of Christ We must answer for stumbling at the infirmities of the godly and also for neglect of their graces if their corruptions doe alienate their graces should allure it s more honourable and Christian to love them for bearing Christs Image then for being of our judgement VERS 16. Therefore say Thus saith the Lord God although I have cast them farre off among the Heathen and although I have scattered them amongst the Countries yet will I be to them as a little Sanctuary in the Countries where they shall come AT this Verse begins comfort for the Captives they were cast out rejected and insulted over by their Brethren fill'd with sad thoughts of their condition but here Heaven opens and

be pleasing to other carnall hearts and least you may thinke I deceive you observe the next Verse They say still unto them that despise me the Lord hath sayd yee shall have peace and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his owne heart No evill shall come upon you What is more pleasing to man then to have his owne mind doe his owne will Isa 3.12 They which lead thee are they which call thee blessed walke after the imaginations of his owne heart and what softer words more suitable to him can be sayd then no evill shall come upon him false Prophets speake Verba lactis Milkie Oylie words such as please men and battle their humours and so have a great advantage with men who love to be humor'd but true Prophets speake Verba veritatis which have salt and fire in them and so crosse fret provoke mens lusts and stirre up their hatred against them and as the other with their lyes and flatteries find favour with men so these for their truths with God who loves truth Paul durst not Preach to please men but Christ Gal. 1.10 John would not please Herod 3. The Prophesies and Doctrines of false Teachers seem unto them and those cleave to them to have much strength they built up a wall walls are things of strength be they Earth Timber or Stone Walls they prophesied peace that Nebuchadnezzar should not come against them or depart if he came without prejudice to them they sayd that the Vessells and people should speedily returne from Babylon c. These Doctrines of thei●s were as walls unto them of strength and defence Solomon tells us that A rich mans riches are a high wall in his owne conceite Prov. 18.11 and so the opinions and tenets of false Teachers are a high wall in their owne conceits they thinke the people are strengthened and secured by them There are scarcely any opinions abroad be they never so erroneous hereticall blasphemous tending to licentiousnesse but the Authors of them judge them to have strength in them and looke upon them as walls to advantage the people and those are deceived by them think the like of them 4. That false Prophets and Teachers doe concurre and mutually endeavour to countenance and strengthen each others Doctrines and Tenets one built up a Wall and loe others daubed it the true Prophets oft prophesied the same things and so strengthened the hands each of other and so did the false Prophets they improv'd their art and parts to strengthen one another they brought their Visions Divinations Dreams Lyes and whatever they had to playster and daube up this wall they told them of Gods mercy Covenant Promise to dwell at Jerusalem for ever how greatly God was delighted with that place that they were a holy people had the Law Ordinances Sacrifices which none else in the World had that God had no Church but them and therefore unlikely that ever he would destroy them that his heart was towards them thus they agreed all in falshood and strengthened themselves and the people in wickednesse So all the false Prophets concurred in deceiving Ahab Zedekiah the cheife makes hornes and saith With these shalt thou push the Syrians till they be consumed 5. Whatever Prophets give out of their owne unto the people its weake unsollid and unserviceable these Prophets prophesied of their owne heads out of their owne spirits they had nothing from God and what was all but untempered Morter a thing unsavory and foolish did any of their Visions Divinations or Prophesies strengthen the hearts or hands of this people were they not altogether seduced by them they fil'd them with vaine hopes flattered them in their sinfull wayes prophesied of peace and plenty and so healed the hurt of Gods people slightly they skin'd it over with faire words but did not search it to the bottome Jer. 8.11 and launce it with sound and wholesome truths they brought of their owne not of the Lords and therefore it was unserviceable they brought lyes Jer. 27.10 False dreames Jer. 23.32 The deceit of their owne hearts Vers 26. False Visions D●vinations and things of nought Chap. 14.14 Can lyes dreames deceits false and things of naught strengthen or build up The truths and Doctrines of God are sollid savory strengthening lutum paleatum well tempered Morter they are tempered with the glorie wisedome mercy and love of God with the blood of Christ with the power of the spirit and they will build up a Wall be strength unto us Zecharie 1.13 his words are good and comfortable Mic. 2.7 they do good Psal 91.4 His truth is a Sheild and Buckler its sure and will not deceive 2 Pet. 1.19 The Doctrines of the Apostles confirmed the Brethren and the Churches Acts 14.22 15.32 The Doctrines and Opinions of men are windy deceitfull things and hinder growth and strength Eph. 4.14 but the truths of God cause growth in all things and so strengthen making us firme as Walls What men bring of their owne 2 Pet. 2.3 are 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 fained words untempered Morter but what they have from God are wholesome words and Doctrines according to godlinesse 1 Tim. 6.3 6. Seducing of people by false flattering unsound Doctrines doth greatly provoke God Because even because they have seduced my people saying Peace and one built c. Prophets work is to make knowne truth and to bring men out of their by and base wayes into the way of truth but if they turne men out of that way into the wayes of errour they worke but their worke is not pleasing unto God it exasperates his spirit against them and no marvell they undoe soules which are precious things James 5.20 He converts a sinner from the errour of his way saves a soule from death and hides a multitude of sins that would appeare by his going on in an erroneous way if on the contrary a man seduce a man from the truth and lead him into wayes of errours he destroys a soule discovers and multiplies sin and so did these false Prophets and so doe all false Teachers Peter tells you of false Teachers 2 Epist 2.1 who bring in damnable heresies and draw away many thereby and is that all No they bring upon themselves swift destruction they so provoke God by their corrupt and damn●ble Doctrines that he intends and hastens their destruction and let the seduced looke to it least destruction be their portion Isa 9.16 The Leaders of this people cause them to erre and they that are led of them are destroyed 7. Whatsoever works men worke God will try them if the Prophets build Walls daube with untempered Morter Preach visions of their owne heads c. God will prove their walls what strength is in them examine their Morter whether tempered or no whether ought of God be in it or all be humane Vers 11.
