Ezekiel20:5

Ver. 5. In the day when I choſe Iſrael] Declared them to be my firſt-born; and ſo higher then the Kings of the earth, Pſal. 89.27.

When I lifted up mine hand unto them, ſaying, I am the Lord your God] This ſweet promiſe is not ſo eaſily (and indeed is never enough) beleeved: and is therefore here confirmed by Gods ſolemn oath thrice repeated: that by two immutable things (wherein it was impoſſible for God to lye) his people might have ſtrong conſolation, Heb. 6.18.
