Isaiah33:6
Ver. 6. And wiſdom and knowledge ſhall be the ſtability of thy times] Thy times O Hezekiah: but eſpecially, O Chriſt: Or, the ſtability of thy times and ſtrong ſafeguard ſhall thy wiſdom and knowledge be: By his knowledge, that is, by faith in him, ſhall my righteous ſervant (Jeſus Chriſt) juſtifie many, Chap. 53.11. but theſe are alſo ſanctified by him: the fear of the Lord is their treaſure, they hold faith and a good conſcience, which ſome having put away, concerning faith, have made ſhipwrack, 1 Tim. 1.19. See the Note there.
The fear of the Lord is his Treaſure] The ſpirit of this holy fear reſted upon Chriſt,Paradin. in ſymbol. chap. 11.2. and good Hezekiah was eminent for it, not for civil prudence only: this was flos regis the faireſt flower in all his garland: this is ſolidiſſima regiae politiae baſis, as one ſaith, the beſt policy, and the way to wealth.
