14. Secondly by his perfect sanctification and personall vnion of both natures Luk. 1. 35. Ioh. 10. 36. Thirdly as King so Psal 82. 6. Ioh. 10. 34. 36. To acknowledge this Ioh. 1. with Peter Mat. 16. Ioh. 6. 69. and with the Centurion and Martha Ioh. 11. 27. To make a difference of all other sonnes of God from him as he in sonne-ship differs from them 1. Ioh. 3. 1. Galath 4. 4. Ioh. 1. 12. That in time he was declared so to be Rom. 1. 4. Act. 13. 33. To confirme our faith in this truth to our great comfort when we be sure that our Sauiour is the only sonne of God That this doctrine as a maine and most principall point was to be taught vnto the people as the scope of the Gospell Ioh. 20. 31. To studie this point as the principall article of our Christian faith If wee consider this as a reason why God did annoint Christ and set him ouer his Church as King viz. for that hee was his only sonne we learne That Iesus Christ hath only right to be King ouer Gods people as the only sonne and heire of his Father Heb. 1. To yeeld therefore this high and soueraigne authority vnto Christ alone as so ordained of his Father Act. 2. 36. To hold it high treason to place any other ouer y e Church as the spirituall head and soueraigne betweene God and his people but him only These words are by the Apostle alleaged to proue Christs Priesthood Heb. 4. 4. and 5. 1. Iesus Christ as hee is our King and our teacher so our high Priest vnto God Heb. 4. 4. and 5. By him only to seeke an attonement with God and to offer vp our sacrifices For in him only is he well pleased Mat. 3. 17. Esa 42. 1. VERSE VIII Aske of me and I will giue thee the heathen for thine inheritance and the ends of the world thy possession ANd as for thee thou art so altogether after mine owne heart and hast found such fauour with me and I am in thee so well pleased that I will giue thee thine hearts desire and will not denie the request of thy lips Aske therefore of me abundantly gifts and honour and dominion and I will giue thee not the one halfe of my kingdome but all the Gentiles for thine heritage which as a present shall be brought vnto thee though now a people scattered abroad and spoyled thy dominion also shall be from sea to sea and the ends of the earth shall be thy sure possession all Kings shall worship thee all nations shall doe thee seruice These words are another part of the decree which the Prophet foretels Christ should declare in his person to the people the former concerned his person this his kingdome teaching That another maine doctrine of Christs ministrie was to publish the nature and largenesse of his kingdome and dominion of which the Prophets foretold Psal 72. 8. Esa 60. 3. and Christ himselfe speaketh of also Ioh. 12. 32. This doctrine must we take notice of and labour to vnderstand it the error whereof did blind and so doth to this day the miserable Iewes who still looke for an earthly pompous Messiah to exalt them againe in an outward earthlie glorie Aske of me Here the words of God the Father are brought in to expresse his power to giue and readinesse to inlarge Dauids and Christs kingdome as another reason to confound the enemies and to shew their attempts to be vaine It is altogether vaine to oppose and to keepe straight such as God is willing to make mightie and to giue them large dominions See in Nabuchadnezzar Cyrus Alexander the Romans Dan. 2. 17. 44. Iere. 27. 5. 6. 8. This should admonish all in stead of opposing themselues rather with quietnes to take vpon themselues the yoke of Kings and Princes whom God hath established and as the Prophet Ieremy exhorteth concerning Nabuchadnezzar to pray for them and seeke their peace for in their peace shall themselues haue peace Iere. 27. and 29. 7. These words are vsed to expresse Gods singular loue for so the speech is vsed when one would shew how much he is well pleased with another Mar. 6. 22. 1. King 3. 5. Dauid was greatly beloued of the Lord one after his owne heart Of this loue reade Psal 89. 2. Sam. 8. 14. Princes to follow the steps of Dauid that they may be beloued of the Lord as all the Kings of Iudah were that did walke in his steps Vnderstand these words of the father so spoken to Christ as Christ act for the fathers will to him shewes the sonnes act indeed Iesus Christ is deerely beloued of his father and so well pleased with him as he can deny him nothing Mat. 17. 5. Ioh. 11. 42. 2. Pet. 1. 17. To heare him This vse the Father teacheth Matthew 17. 5. To reioyce that we haue such an aduocate with the father 1. Ioh. 2. 1. whom the Father will heare in any thing Ioh. 11. 42. Rom. 8. 34. To beleeue constantly this authoritie of the Sonne to be so great with the Father And I shall giue thee the heathen for thine inheritance and the vttermost parts of the earth for thy possession This is true in some sort of Dauid who did subdue all his enemies round about him as his storie shewes 2. Sam. 8. but this is most fully accomplished in Christ if wee doe consider the nature of his kingdome which is spirituall and therefore spiritually discerned All the earth is in Gods hands to giue as he pleaseth Ier. 27. 5. Dan. 4. 29. which he giueth to his sonne Iesus Christ the heire of all Heb. 1. 2. Therefore to pray vnto him to inlarge the kingdome of his sonne to whom he hath made this so large promise That Iesus Christ reigneth ouer whom he pleaseth and where he listeth for his father biddeth him but aske and it shall be giuen him Ioh. 3. 8. Act. 16. 6. 7. 9. Exceeding comfort to the Church that Christ is able to reigne where he listeth To humble such ouer whom Christ reigneth not for it is because he will not reigne ouer them By heathen are meant all people excepting the Iewish nation the only people of God then visibly The Iewes did not only appertaine to Christs kingdome but the Gentiles also as appeareth this day and in Esa the 60. and Psal 72. 11. foretold To confute the obstinacie of the Iewes who cannot abide this doctrine Act. 22. though taught by the Prophets That wee are the gift of God the Father vnto the sonne the sonne hath none but what are giuen him of the father Ioh. 17. and such as the father draweth Ioh. 6. 37. 44. 65. To praise the goodnesse of the father of our Lord Iesus Christ who of his
meant plentifull bestowing of good things Gen. 24. 35. Deut. 28. 2 Eph. 1. 3. Gal. 3. 8. And thus Dauid prayeth for the people euen rebelling against him such is his loue towards them That a gracious good King loueth prayeth for and wisheth all good to his people 1. King 8. 22. 2. Chr. 29. 18. 19. euen when they haue shewed themselues rebels also against him as Moses did Numb 14. 2. 13 19. and Dauid here Princes to be like minded towards their subiects in these daies to loue them to pray for them and to wish them al happinesse Psal 28. 9. and 29. 11. At the prayer of good Hezekiah the Lord heard and healed the people 2. Chron. 30. 20. yea at his request also deliuered them and confounded the deuouring aduersaries 2. Chron. 32. 20. 21. If the words be taken not as a prayer but as a part of the sentence with the former then it is as if it had been said that he praised God for this saluation shewed to him which was Gods blessing vpon his people for so here they be called and so from hence may we learne That the preseruation of a godly and a gracious King is the blessing of God vpon the people 1. King 10. 9. That which may be said of the setting vp of such a King the same may be auouched of the preseruing him 2. Sam 5. 12. To blesse God for the long life and reigne of godly Kings and Queenes for their liues are the peoples blessing as may appeare in Dauid Iehosaphat Hezekiah Iosiah c. And the manifold change of Princes is a punishment of God for the sinnes of the people as Salomon tels vs. That the people committed to the charge of the mightie are the Lords and not theirs 1. Sam. 2. 24. 2. Sam. 5. 2. The mightie Potentates to consider of this that their Soueraigntie is a charge as Moses speaketh Numb 11. 11. ouer Gods people and therefore to reigne as did Dauid 2.

be speaking of them continually Before is shewed what a blessed man doth not now what he doth and both conioyned to one person teaching That a godly man resteth not onely in leauing of wickednesse but he setteth himselfe forward to the practise of goodnes Iob. 1. 1. 8. and 2. 3. Dauid carefully auoided sinne Psal 119. 11. 133. but it was to keepe Gods word Psalm 119. 101. The godly are set out by their goodnesse Cornelius Act. 10. 2. Zacharie and Elizabeth Luk. 1. 5. and 19. 8. Iam. 2. 25. As we doe leaue euill so let vs endeuour to doe well it is our bounden dutie Psal 34. 14. Esai 1. 16. 17. Psal 37. 27. Rom. 12. 9. Of this further see before vers 1. towards the beginning Reproofe to such as iudge themselues good Christians by not doing euill when yet they doe not that which is good but let such consider these places Iudg. 5. 23. Matth. 3. 10. and 25. 41. But This is a note of diuersitie putting a difference of that which is before and that which followeth by this to note to vs That a blessed mans course which he taketh in hand is differing from euery course of all sorts of the euill ones whose waies hee escheweth See this in Iacob from Esau Dauid from Saul Michaah from Zedkiah Ieremiah from Pashur Ioseph of Arimathea from the other Elders c. Let thy differing course which thou doest practise make thee to be discerned from the courses of the wicked if thou wouldest be held one leauing their waies for it is not thy bodily leauing of their companie that seuereth thee from thē but thy contrary practises in holines and righteousnes His delight Here the godly and blessed mans delight is opposed to all that went before As if he should say he walks not in the counsell of the vngodly nor stands in the way of sinners nor sits in the seate of the scornefull because his delight is vpon another thing that is better Doctrine That the soules contrary delight in men causeth one mans course to be contrarie to another mans This is true generallie so much more betweene the godly and wicked whose delights so gready differ as here may bee noted also in other places of the Psalmes and Prouerbes in which their differing delights and courses are fully set downe That wee may differ in our courses let vs set our loue and delight on good things differing from the delights of the wicked for as our hearts are set so will we meditate and practise Dauids delight was in Gods law Psal 119. 14. 20. 24. 73. therefore he meditated in them Psal 119. 15. and refrained his feete from euery euill way vers 101. 128. The word Chephets of Chaphets signifieth to embrace with loue with good will with a pleasurable loue and an affectionate will and desire vnto a thing Esai 62. 4. Gen. 34. 19. It is a louing delight or delightfull loue and therefore are both read together Psal 119. 47. Hence obserue That a godly man hath his true delight and pleasure Pro. 29. 6. Dauid speakes of great delight Psal 119. 14. He daunced before the Arke 2. Sam. 6. 14. The wise men reioyced exceedingly Matth. 2. 10. So others Act. 5 41. and 8. 39. Therefore let vs not thinke the state of the godly to bee comfortlesse and miserable as the wicked imagine for that they cannot know nor feele the godly mans ioy because the godly delight in the Lord Phil. 4. 4. Psal 64. 10. and in goodnesse 2. Chron. 6. 41. but not in the carnall pleasures of the world as the wicked doe Prou. 10. 23. and 14. 9. and 2. 14. which maketh these to speake euill of them 1 Pet. 2. 12. and to wonder at them 1. Pet. 4. 4. Is in the law of the Lord. Here is noted wherein a godly man is delighted not in vanitie wickednesse foolish bookes not onely in the lawes of man nor in the things of this life wherein the wicked take delight but in the law of the Lord that is in Gods word for it is put for the whole word of God Psal 19. 7. Ioh. 10. 34. Iam. 1. 15. that is the holy Scriptures which is to vs the word of God and aboue which we may not presume 1. Cor. 4. 6. This heere is opposed against the counsell way and seate of euill men From hence wee may learne many things First that a godly blessed man is delighted in the holy Scriptures he hath a loue and desire to them Psal 119. 16. 24. 35. 47. 77. Iob. 23. 12. Psal 16. 10. Deut. 33. 3. To delight in the law of God it is a part of a godly mans blessednesse and his propertie Now what kinde of delight and how great our ioy and loue should bee thereunto reade Psal 119. 14. 54. 72. 97. 111. 117. See the motiues hereunto in the same Psalme vers 92. 104. 105. Pro. 2. 10. 16. and 8. 10. 11. and Rom. 1. 16. and 10. 14. Mat. 13. 44. Deut. 32. 47. Iosu 1. 7. 8. Iere. 6. 10. 11. Reproofe to such as take no delight in the holy word of God Iere. 6. 10. but let such consider Psal 119. 150. 155. Ioh. 10. 27. and 8. 47. Secondly that therefore the word of God affoordeth pleasure and delight to the godly man Psal 119. 103. and 19. 10. Ezek. 3. 3. Reuel 10. 9. 10. To labour to finde this sweet and pleasurable taste of Gods word for the saying of Salomon may bee most truly verified vpon Gods word Pro. 16. 24. If we cannot perceiue this excellencie of the word it is because we are yet naturall 1. Corinth 2. 14. Thirdly that a godly mans piety and religion is not forced nor counterfeit for the word is ioy delight vnto him The word Chephets is voluptas prompta voluntas Psal 111. 2. The Septuagint translate the words thus 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 This serues to condemne all those for hypocrites time-seruers and carnall people who entertaine religion of a custome of feare for companie but not as the godly man of a ready good will out of a true delight therein That a godly man preferreth this word of God before the counsell of the vngodly the way of sinners and seate of the scornfull all which he escheweth for his delight heerin Psalm 119. 115 and by the power thereof is deliuered from them Prouerbs 2. 11. 16. To preferre the holy worde of the Lord before all mens deuises counsells wayes and authorities the godly man doth so and the worde will worke this in thee if euer thou dost feele the liuely efficacy thereof And in that law By Law as is aforesaid is to be vnderstood the whole Scriptures viz. Genesis Gal. 4. 21. 22. Prophets 1. Cor. 14. 12. Psalmes Ioh. 15. 25. it is put for doctrine generally Psal 78. 1. as the law of workes and law of faith Rom. 3. 27.
true in the antitype Now for Sion and praises thereof see Psal 48. 1. 2. 3. 8. and 50. 2. and 87. 2. 3. and 132. 13 Psal 74. 2. and 76. 2. apply them for instruction and comfort It may not be omitted that the Lord calleth Sion his mountaine which must be vnderstood in a special regard for otherwise he is the Lord of the whole earth Psal 24. 1. As Israell then so the true members of Christ now are the only peculiar people of God aboue all vnder heauen Tit. 2. 14. 1. Pet. 2. 9. To reioyce in this chiefly that by Christ thou art of the peculiar people of God The Psalmist prayed to see this happinesse and to reioyce therein Psal 106. 5. VERSE VII I will declare the decree that is the Lord hath said vnto me Thou art my sonne this day haue I begotten thee NOw that alreadie spoken one would thinke should bee sufficient to moue any and yet for their further conuiction that either being throughly resolued they may obey or else be wholly left without all excuse I the same Dauid as a Prophet of God doe declare this his will vnto them and if they will beleeue it behold Gods owne act and decree concerning me the tenour whereof is this The Lord hath irreuocably appointed euen he hath said it and will not repent nor alter the thing that is gone out of his mouth Thou O Dauid art typically my sonne in as much as called and adopted to the function and gouernment of my kingdome whom I did then as it were beget when annoynting thee with oyle and putting my spirit vpon thee and furnishing thee with gifts answerable to thy calling I changed thee into another man and put another heart into thee And thou O Christ art truly my sonne whom I begate eternally yet manifested thee then when being miraculously conceiued through my power ouershadowing y e holy Virgin I brought thee my first begotten into the world and raised thee from the dead whereby I declared thee mightily to be my sonne In this verse the Prophet Dauid for himselfe and also in the person of Christ plainly sheweth that what is done of them both was Gods decree and therefore Dauid knew their attempts against him and Christ were vaine The regiment of Dauid and so of Christ was fore-ordained of the Lord before they were established actually Psal 110. Not to thinke that Kings doe reigne at their pleasure but at Gods appointment or that the Gospell by which Christ reignes comes by chance but as God hath decreed That therefore such as then resisted Dauid and Christ now resist Gods decree in and vpon them Therefore let such resisters know that as the Apostle saith Rom. 13. 2. they must receiue to themselues condemnation I will declare the decree Thus Dauid speaks as a Teacher that he is willing to make knowne Gods decree concerning him to stay the enemies if it be possible Teaching The true knowledge of Gods will in our standing is a strong bulwarke of defence to oppose against all enemies therefore D●uid here publisheth it so the Apostle Act. 26. 19. 20. So Iere. 17. 16. To ascertaine our selues of Gods good will and certaine decree for our places and standings that wee may be able to obiect the same to our enemies either for their conuersion or to leaue them inexcusable and is to vs assurance of defence compare Iere. 17. 16. with 20. 11. This being vnderstood of Christ who also did declare what he was and what God had decreed concerning him as may be seene in all his disputations against his aduersaries we doe learne That Christ was to be also a Prophet and a Preacher as well as a King Deut. 18. Act. 13. To acknowledge then his propheticall office heere foretold and as the Father commandeth heare him Mat. 17. That so he indeed preached vnto the people his Fathers decree as all the Euangelists doe witnesse and so this prophecie of him to be true To acknowledge Dauid a true Prophet of God Behold Christs loue and mercie who would not hide from his enemies his Fathers will if they would haue beleeued it Reproofe to such first as despise the calling of a Teacher secondly as being Teachers in name doe yet neglect to declare Gods decree indeed The Lord hath said vnto me Vnderstanding it of Dauid first the type who doth shew that this decree was made knowne to himselfe we learne That it is not enough to haue the word of God to warrant the action but for a calling thereto in our place and standing 2. Chron. 35. 21. Heb. 4. 5. Ios 1. 9. Iudg. 6. 14. To be able to applie the word of Gods decree truly and rightly to our selues in our place and calling for that warranteth a good action to our selues Vnderstanding these words of Christ we doe learne That God the Father is Christs Lord according to his humanitie as he here acknowledgeth Therefore all Kings to acknowledge the same much more and shew it by feare Mat. 1. 6. That he published that which he first heard his Father speake vnto him Ioh. 12. 49. and 7. 16. and 14. 24.
