Ezekiel17:6

Ver. 6. And it grew] And yet it had a great fall; viz. from a tall cedar to a low vine. Zedekiah, though he had ſtill the title of a King, and was not left without wealth and dignity, yet it was far inferiour to that of his Predeceſſours.

Magna repentè raunt, ſumma cadunt ſubito.

Whoſe branches turned toward him] i. e. Toward Nebuchadnezzar now the chief Lord of the land. To him looked and leaned the Lords of the land, and ſo long they did well: for they and the whole Kingdom thrived.
