Isaiah38:11
Ver. 11. I ſaid I ſhall not ſee the Lord] In the glaſs of his Ordinances; his love whereunto made Hezekiah ſo loth to depart: as alſo his delight in the Communion of Saints, and his deſire to do more good amongſt them on all occaſions. This made good Paul in a ſtrait alſo. Philip. 1.23, 24. I loved the man (ſaid Theodeſius concerning Ambroſe) for that when he died, he was more ſollicitous of the Churches welfare then of his own.
Even the Lord] Non videbo Jah Jah. I ſhall not ſee the Lord of the Lord,Leo Caſtrius. Deum Dei, vel Deum de Deo. That is, Chriſt in the fleſh, as I had well hoped to have done: ſo ſome ſenſe it. Others ſay He redoubleth the word Jah to expreſs his ardent affection to Gods ſervice, and to intimate his deſire of life to that purpoſe, Ver. 22.
