Job36:22
Verſe 22. Behold, God exalteth by his power.] Vulg. God is high in his ſtrength. He both exalteth himſelf and others, whenſoever he pleaſeth. Beza reads it, Behold God in his ſtrength is above all; q.d. It is he that muſt reſtore thee, if ever thou beeſt reſtored.
Who teacheth like him?] Vulg. None amongſt the Law-givers is like unto him. But the word Moreh ſignifieth a Doctor or a Teacher; as Moreh Nebuchim, a Teacher of perplexed things, an unriddler of Riddles. He knowes all things exactly, and does all things with ſingular skil and underſtanding. He hath many wayes of teaching people, and making them to profit, Iſai. 48.17. and one is, by afflictions, which Luther therefore fitly calleth Theologiam Chriſtianorum; the Chriſtians Syſtem of Divinity; as hath been before noted. Mr. Aſcham was a good School-Maſter (ſaith one) to Q. Elizabeth, but affliction was a better.
