Ezekiel24:18

Ver. 18. And at even my wife dyed] Though a good woman probably, and to the Prophet a great comfort, the ſweet companion of his life and miſeries: yet ſhe dyed ſuddenly, and by ſome extraordinary diſeaſe. All things come alike to all.

And I did in the morning as I was commanded] Grievous though it were, and went much againſt the hair with me, yet I did it. Ʋxorem poſthabuit praecepto Dei. Obedience muſt be yielded to God even in the moſt difficult duties: and conjugal love muſt give place to our love to him.
