Isaiah45:10
10. Wo unto him that saith unto his Father, What begettest thou? or unto the woman, What hast thou brought forth ?
As it were an absurd and impudent Thing, for a Child to quarrel with his Parents, either simply for Begetting him, or for Begetting him of this or that Sex, contrary to his desire; no better is it for any Persons to quarrel with God the Maker and Father of all things, as God is called, 1 Cor. 8. 6. for disposing of them and their Affairs, by his Providence, as he sees fit, and otherwise than they desire or expect; as the Iews quarrelled with God, for bringing them into Captivity; and the Babylonians, for Translating the Empire from them to the Persians.
