Isaiah33:20

20 Look upon Zion the city of our solemnities , thine eyes shall see Ierusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down, not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken .

Contemplate Zions beauty and safety, and her glorious and peculiar Priviledges: It is an Object worthy of thy deepest Meditation.

This he mentions, as the chief part of Zions Glory and Happiness, that God was solemnly Worshipped, and the solemn Assemblies and Feasts kept in her.

Which was but very obscurely and imperfectly fulfilled in the literal Zion; but was clearly and fully accomplished in the mystical Zion, the Church of God in the times of the Gospel▪ against which, we are assured, that the gates of Hell shall not prevail, Mat. 16. 18.

Marginal references: Psal. 46. 5. & 125. 1, 2.
