Psalms73:11

11 And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High !

Either, 1. The godly. Or rather, 2. Those wicked ones, whose Words and Actions he hath been hitherto describing, or the People Confederate with them. For these and such like opinions are oft ascribed to the wicked in Scripture, but never, as far as I know, to any good man. And Iob, though he used many intemperate Speeches, and though some such Expressions as this were charged upon him by his Friends, as Iob 22. 13 yet he utterly disowned them

Seeing these cursed and impudent Blasphemers of God, and Enemies of all goodness are Crowned with so many Blessings, how is it Credible, that there is a God who sees and Orders the Affairs of this lower World? For if God did know these things, certainly he neither could or would suffer them to be thus managed.
