Hebrews11:7

Verſe 7. Moved with fear] Oppoſed to the ſecurity of the old world, who would know nothing till the very day that the floud came, Mat. 24. Noah trembled at Gods judgements, whileſt they hanged in the threatnings; and was no leſſe affected then if himſelf had been endangered. See the like in Habakkuk, after that he threatned the Chaldeans, Chap. 3.16. and in Daniel, chap. 4.19. Noah took things fore-told him by God, [non-Latin text not transcribed]. by the right handle, as the word properly ſignifieth.

By the which he condemned the world] Of deep and deſperate ſecurity, that dead lethargy, where into ſin and Satan had caſt them.

And became heir] Heir apparant: he was hereby evidently declared to be ſuch.
