not a few fit for this purpose so are they in many things much like both in the preparation and action and many good lessons likewise resulting vppon the applying of the sequels in Iacobs victory to that which wee iustly expect in this of our victorious Prince as in the discourse following shall apeare GEN. 32. vers 24 25. VVhen Iacob was left himselfe alone there wrastled a mā with him vnto the breaking of the day And he saw that he could not preuaile against him therefore hee touched the hollow of his thigh and the hollow of Iacobs thigh was loosed as he wrestled with him Let no man thinke it presumption to compare these two Iacobs a great Patriarch with a great Prince a Father of the faithfull with the defender of the faith and a wrastler in the shadowes of that heauenly Canaan with a wrastler for the substance of our heauenly Ierusalem Before we enter then to the description of these wrastlings we haue first to speake of the person then of the preparation to it In the person is to bee considered first his name then his quality course of life Protasis or Proposition His name Iacob hath two significations one by the first imposer his father Isaac an other from his wrastling imposed by God In the first it signified a Supplanter because hee helde his brother Esau by the heele at their birth beeing twinnes The other signification is a VVrastler although different yet not disagreeing from the former for euen from that same holding him by the heele yea before it begun their wrastling by the oracle of God in the bellie of their mother Rebecca Gen. 25.23 Apodosis or Application Our first comparison then is from a similitude for so hath our soueraigne Lord for his name Iacob in that language The significations though not so fully agreeing in his person may yet apparantly bee thus farre deriued First although his Maiestie be not halfe a birth as was Iacob but one onely son cutting short thereby all dispute of titles and birth-rights with elder Esaues yet as God saide to Rebecca Two nations are in thy wombe Gen. 25.23 and the one shal be mightier then the other and the elder shall serue the yonger so in the person of our princely Iacob were two nations borne to wit Scotland and his Canaan England whereof the elder may be said to serue the yonger in so farre as England c. being iustly maior or melior is now come vnder his Maiesties gouernment beeing then of onely Scotland and so meritò minor Thus begunne he also as did Iacob his wrastling euen in his Rebeccaes bellie to wit with that olde Esau the roote of those rauenous Ruthuens grandfather to this Italian Edomit the late Earle of Gowrie who preased to diuide his Highnesse in and from his mothers wombe as is more then manifest whom God of his eternall prouidence brought forth in this world to the inheritance of his birth-right and preseruation of this nation and so is he iustly called a Iacob a Supplanter or a VVrastler not a deceiuer nor vsurper As to the second signification how farre he hath proued a VVrastler indeede shall be shewed in the owne roome And thus for the name The quality and course of life hath two points before his wrastling or after Before either vnmaried or maried vnmaried first in getting the birth right then the blessing Protasis or Proposition When that rough red Esau was come out Jen. 25.25 26 27. that cunning hunter fit for the fields Iacob was a plaine man and dwelt in tents Here in the course of their liues are opposed plainnesse to cunning simplicity to fraud and indwelling in tents to a wilde barbarite For both the diuine oracles their performances must teach vs that these notes are good in Iacob and bad in Esau Iacob was a plaine man not that hee was doltish no for as hee was a Doue hee was also a Serpent according to the saying of Christ and so hee proued a plaine man in his walking vprightly before God a Serpent in his wise cariage at his encounter with Esau Now cunning hunting in an other then Esau who postponed his birth-right to his pottage is no opprobrie Againe Iacob dwelt in tents which some apply to the tents of Melchisedec or Sem that Priest of the most high God and so discharged dutifully that law of the first borne in the sacrifices and seruing of God and was therefore found worthie of the birth-right which Esau set at naught by his running astray in the Wildernesse and selling it for a messe of pottage Apodosis or Application When those blood-red and rough Esaues who stroue with our princely Iacob were ouercome first by his birth then grew hee and indeede greatly hath hee growen in the plainnesse of Iacob and his indwelling in tents as a Doue and as a Serpent plaine in all his waies and vpright else let such charge him as haue beene frustrate by his fraud But lacketh hee either worldly wit or heauenly wisedome with Iacob witnesse all such as haue either conferred with his Maiestie mouth to mouth or yet read his manifold Treatises by himselfe done and doubtlesse then shall they not aske if hee be learned but how hee hath learned or rather what hath hee not learned either in the Naturall workes or Supernaturall word of Cod. Surely hee dwelleth in Iacobs tents and hath suffered tentations with Iacob and beene almost from his infancie euer a making pottage with Iacob to pleasure a world of wilde Esaues A second King of Salem bringing peace to all his people Hath he not beene led as it were in the wildernes of tentations by cunning Hunters and cunny-catching Esaues who haue sometimes persecuted his owne person sometimes the tents of Iacob Religion it selfe both publikely and vnder pretext Haue not golden hills bene promised him to leaue Iacobs tents yet did his Maiestie euer resist in that same strength by which he now lately preuailed and said not with Caesar and others Si si iusiurandum violandum est regnandi causa violandum est But here mee thinkes I doe euen heare some obiecting against certaine breaches slippes and errors escaped in the course of our Iacobs gouernment True else hee were not a Iacob Gen. 35.2 but a Iah that is a God And were there not euen in that Patriarches house strange errors when hee bad them remoue their strange gods But such were then our sottish scottish humours and such are now our brutish brittish humours to be euer loose tongued rather imputing or imping as it were faultes in our Prince wherof he is free then either supplying his infirmities or praising his vertues as if all were then repaired when the Prince is reproached but of this afterwards This one thing auouch I onely here that our Iacob hath I will not say of all men fearing flatterie but of all Princes Monarches both most and best mixed knowledge in maniest worthiest matters
