A13823 The revvard of religion Deliuered in sundrie lectures vpon the booke of Ruth, wherein the godly may see their daily and outwarde tryals, with the presence of God to assist them, and his mercies to recompence them: verie profitable for this present time of dearth, wherein manye are most pittifully tormented with want; and also worthie to bee considered in this golden age of the preaching of the word, when some vomit vp the loathsomnes therof, and others fall away to damnable securitie. Topsell, Edward, 1572-1625? 1596 (1596) STC 24127; ESTC S105980 250,925 363

woman_n be_v bind_v to_o see_v their_o child_n first_o instruction_n that_o be_v if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o have_v they_o in_o their_o keep_n at_o their_o first_o entrance_n into_o knowledge_n and_o when_o they_o be_v first_o of_o all_o capable_a of_o any_o goodness_n so_o we_o read_v isaac_n remain_v with_o his_o father_n abraham_n in_o the_o time_n of_o infancy_n 2.3_o when_o god_n command_v ishmael_n to_o be_v cast_v out_o so_o jacob_n keep_v little_a benjamin_n with_o he_o neither_o will_v he_o depart_v from_o he_o unto_o any_o till_o simeon_n be_v bind_v in_o egypt_n so_o we_o read_v of_o the_o king_n joash_n who_o his_o aunt_n jehoshebah_n hide_v from_o y_z e_z rage_n of_o athaliah_n who_o be_v bring_v up_o in_o the_o house_n of_o her_o husband_n jehoiadah_n where_o he_o be_v most_o worthy_o instruct_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n so_o we_o read_v our_o saviour_n christ_n keep_v till_o he_o be_v twelve_o year_n old_a with_o his_o mother_n and_o suppose_a

therefore_o the_o conclusion_n of_o all_o this_o be_v that_o neither_o the_o nurse_n nor_o instruction_n of_o our_o child_n must_v be_v defer_v to_o other_o at_o the_o least_o so_o as_o we_o seem_v not_o but_o to_o be_v many_o way_n as_o careful_a for_o they_o as_o if_o they_o be_v in_o our_o presence_n to_o be_v evermore_o mindful_a for_o the_o wealth_n of_o their_o body_n and_o health_n of_o their_o soul_n four_o and_o last_o by_o these_o word_n we_o may_v gather_v how_o great_a and_o excellent_a be_v this_o work_n the_o bring_v up_o of_o child_n for_o which_o the_o lord_n have_v express_v in_o his_o word_n that_o it_o be_v require_v that_o many_o shall_v be_v apply_v for_o in_o this_o place_n we_o see_v naomi_n and_o ruth_n bestow_v their_o labour_n for_o the_o education_n of_o this_o new_a bear_v babe_n and_o we_o have_v hear_v that_o rebecca_n have_v a_o nurse_n that_o come_v with_o she_o from_o her_o father_n house_n to_o the_o land_n where_o abraham_n dwell_v which_o signify_v unto_o we_o that_o neither_o their_o infancy_n can_v be_v unfedde_v nor_o their_o youth_n unruled_a for_o this_o be_v not_o so_o base_a a_o work_n as_o many_o think_v it_o that_o one_o be_v enough_o if_o not_o too_o much_o to_o take_v the_o care_n of_o their_o child_n for_o we_o know_v they_o be_v easy_o draw_v to_o many_o inconvenience_n neither_o can_v the_o parent_n be_v

parent_n duty_n better_o discharge_v every_o flock_n have_v a_o keeper_n beside_o the_o owner_n every_o garden_n have_v a_o dresser_n beside_o the_o master_n and_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a let_v every_o child_n have_v a_o overseer_n beside_o the_o parent_n for_o alas_o the_o silly_a infante_n be_v soon_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n fall_v into_o the_o water_n overturn_v with_o the_o wind_n and_o every_o beast_n be_v ready_a to_o work_v his_o destruction_n all_o which_o may_v be_v wise_o prevent_v though_o not_o with_o the_o presence_n yet_o with_o the_o counsel_n and_o care_n of_o the_o parent_n by_o provide_v such_o careful_a person_n to_o be_v their_o guide_n as_o may_v also_o defend_v they_o when_o they_o be_v absent_a and_o the_o woman_n her_o neighbour_n in_o this_o verse_n be_v the_o second_o part_n which_o concern_v the_o name_n of_o the_o child_n where_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v declare_v unto_o we_o the_o person_n that_o name_v the_o child_n to_o be_v the_o woman_n of_o

and_o follow_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o child_n indeed_o we_o may_v often_o read_v that_o the_o parent_n give_v name_n to_o their_o child_n sometime_o the_o father_n sometime_o the_o mother_n &_o sometime_o the_o lord_n himself_o as_o in_o many_o person_n we_o may_v perceyve_v but_o we_o never_o read_v that_o the_o people_n be_v so_o kind_a to_o help_v in_o this_o matter_n and_o to_o further_a the_o duty_n of_o any_o godly_a mind_a only_o this_o place_n except_v so_o that_o these_o woman_n be_v a_o most_o godly_a example_n for_o all_o the_o faithful_a to_o behold_v how_o they_o must_v further_o and_o help_v one_o another_o in_o the_o cause_n of_o religion_n for_o the_o name_n of_o child_n in_o old_a time_n be_v very_o excellent_a when_o they_o be_v careful_a by_o their_o earthly_a and_o outward_a title_n to_o admonish_v they_o of_o their_o inward_a and_o heavenly_a duty_n and_o that_o which_o these_o do_v in_o this_o one_o must_v we_o do_v also_o in_o all_o other_o duty_n to_o draw_v more_o and_o more_o to_o the_o love_n of_o religion_n as_o we_o read_v the_o apostle_n do_v one_o another_o when_o they_o come_v to_o the_o first_o knowledge_n of_o the_o messiah_n for_o as_o a_o little_a leven_n season_v a_o whole_a lump_n even_o so_o a_o few_o godly_a personne_n may_v draw_v a_o great_a many_o to_o religion_n therefore_o this_o one_o duty_n of_o all_o other_o belong_v to_o the_o flock_n of_o christ_n that_o they_o help_v one_o another_o in_o the_o work_n of_o christianity_n when_o the_o ruler_n of_o the_o temple_n his_o daughter_n be_v sick_a for_o the_o little_a

prayer_n and_o withdraw_v your_o hand_n from_o give_v any_o relief_n to_o they_o that_o abuse_v this_o heavenly_a blessing_n then_o say_v naomi_n in_o this_o verse_n naomi_n repeat_v her_o prayer_n and_o add_v a_o reason_n of_o the_o same_o because_o he_o have_v not_o cease_v to_o do_v good_a towards_o the_o live_n and_o towards_o the_o dead_a that_o be_v he_o do_v good_a to_o my_o husband_n

they_o be_v consume_v in_o their_o grave_n and_o unfit_a for_o any_o benevolence_n as_o for_o their_o soul_n they_o need_v no_o earthly_a beneficence_n for_o that_o remain_v true_a for_o ever_o

all_o one_o as_o if_o we_o do_v good_a to_o their_o own_o person_n thus_o say_v naomi_n in_o this_o place_n and_o thus_o david_n do_v good_a to_o his_o friend_n jonathan_n be_v dead_a 9.11_o when_o

and_o to_o be_v a_o enemy_n to_o their_o enemy_n as_o the_o lord_n promise_v abraham_n therefore_o let_v we_o cast_v away_o this_o counterfeit_n kindness_n and_o perform_v this_o godly_a love_n wherein_o other_o before_o we_o have_v walk_v 12.13_o and_o as_o we_o be_v wont_v lovinglye_o to_o receive_v the_o parent_n be_v alive_a so_o let_v we_o joyful_o entertain_v the_o child_n now_o they_o be_v dead_a for_o true_a friendship_n love_v at_o all_o tme_n 17._o and_o godly_a kindness_n must_v never_o be_v remove_v as_o we_o wish_v that_o other_o shall_v use_v we_o when_o we_o be_v go_v so_o let_v we_o use_v other_o now_o they_o be_v absent_a moreover_o naomi_n say_v in_o these_o word_n she_o give_v comfort_n unto_o ruth_n show_v she_o that_o his_o benevolence_n be_v not_o causeless_a see_v he_o be_v near_o unto_o they_o and_o of_o be_v affinitye_n be_v a_o appoint_a person_n to_o redeem_v their_o inheritance_n 6._o for_o in_o the_o law_n of_o the_o lord_n he_o have_v decree_v

which_o come_n into_o the_o mind_n of_o naomi_n she_o hope_v that_o by_o this_o mean_v they_o shall_v come_v to_o their_o inheritance_n again_o see_v bohaz_n who_o be_v one_o of_o the_o next_o of_o her_o kindred_n have_v so_o courteous_o entreat_v the_o widow_n and_o heir_n whereby_o we_o note_v the_o great_a care_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v over_o the_o poor_a which_o by_o a_o law_n decree_v that_o they_o shall_v not_o for_o ever_o be_v deprive_v of_o their_o inheritance_n for_o at_o the_o far_a they_o shall_v come_v to_o it_o again_o at_o the_o year_n of_o jubilee_n and_o truelye_o this_o jaw_n be_v cease_v because_o the_o jew_n common_a wealth_n be_v overthrow_v yet_o the_o lord_n execute_v the_o same_o in_o some_o measure_n among_o the_o gentile_n daily_o for_o now_o we_o
