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

to_o their_o meat_n like_o bruit_n beast_n may_v seem_v to_o have_v the_o example_n of_o some_o godly_a person_n for_o the_o defence_n of_o their_o abominable_a unthankfulnes_n to_o which_o i_o

e_z rule_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n not_o by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o faithful_a second_o we_o must_v know_v that_o every_o thing_n or_o circumstance_n be_v not_o needful_a in_o every_o place_n of_o the_o scripture_n to_o be_v declare_v particular_o for_o in_o this_o place_n we_o read_v not_o that_o ruth_n give_v any_o thanks_o to_o bohaz_n for_o her_o meat_n yet_o we_o must_v not_o

with_o boaz_n it_o be_v his_o duty_n at_o his_o own_o table_n to_o pray_v and_o to_o give_v thanks_n which_o no_o doubt_n but_o he_o do_v and_o she_o do_v with_o he_o therefore_o to_o the_o word_n where_o we_o first_o note_v the_o true_a use_n of_o eat_v and_o drink_v the_o benefit_n of_o god_n which_o be_v that_o by_o they_o we_o may_v be_v enable_v to_o follow_v our_o vocation_n for_o here_o we_o see_v ruth_n after_o meat_n return_v to_o her_o work_n again_o as_o if_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v flat_o set_v down_o that_o for_o this_o cause_n we_o must_v eat_v and_o drink_v that_o by_o they_o we_o may_v work_v more_o free_o and_o labour_v more_o diligent_o therefore_o solomon_n pronounce_v a_o blessing_n upon_o a_o whole_a country_n 10.17_o who_o prince_n and_o noble_n eat_v for_o

wherein_o we_o be_v all_o as_o guilty_a as_o they_o therefore_o like_o feel_a member_n of_o our_o brother_n misery_n where_o we_o see_v the_o foresay_a grace_n appear_v there_o let_v our_o bind_a

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

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

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
