Isaiah54:5
Ver. 5. For thy Maker is thine husband] Heb. thy Makers, as Job 35.10. See the Note there. De ſancta Trinitate dictum, ſaith Junius. Mariti tui factores tui. Iſaac hath the name of the moſt loving husband we read of in holy Writ: but his love to Rebecca was not comparable to this of Chriſt to his Church, Epheſ. 5.25, 26. where I doubt not but the Apoſtle Paul had reſpect to this paſſage in Iſaiah.
The Lord of Hoſts is his name] Therefore thou his wife art ſure of Protection and proviſion, of all things neceſſary to life and godlineſſe: for he hateth putting away, Mal. 2.16. and will bear with more then any husband elſe would, Jer. 3.1. Joh. 13.1. Surely as the heaven is high above the earth, ſo great is his mercy toward them that fear him, Pſal. 103.11.
The God of the whole earth] Of the Church univerſal.
