Isaiah2:5
Ver. 5. O houſe of Jacob] So Mic. 2.7. O thou that art called the houſe of Jacob; and the houſe of Iſrael, Iſa. 5.7. Thou that art called a Jew and makeſt thy boaſt of God,Per aemulaticnem provocat. Oecolamp. Rom. 2.17. This, Rupertus maketh to be the voyce and advice of the converted and Chriſtian Gentiles to the Iews: others, of our Prophet to his perverſe Country-men, to joyn with the Gentiles, or rather to go before them as worthy Guides in Heaven-wayes; and not to lie behind thoſe whom they have ſo much ſlighted.
Let us walk in the light of the Lord] that is, in the Law of the Lord (for Lex eſt Lux, Prov. 6.23.) and not by the ſparks of our own Tinder-boxes, Iſa. 50.11. not by the Ruſh-candle of Philoſophical preſcriptions. Let us walk in the fear of the Lord, [non-Latin text not transcribed] eſt in Apoſtrophe. and in the comfort of the Holy Ghoſt, as Acts 9.31.
