Psalms27:5
Ver. 5. For in time of trouble hee ſhall hide mee] This protection hee boldly promiſeth himſelf as a fruit of his faith, foſtered by the uſe of the ordinances. He knew that the only way to bee ſafe, was to get under Gods wing, Pſal. 91. to take ſanctuary there, to bee hid under Gods Altar; for upon all the glory there is a defence, Iſa. 4.5. Joaſh was preſerved ſix years in the ſanctuarie, where hee was hid. The Sanctuary is called Gods hidden place, Ezek. 7.22. and his Saints, his hidden ones, Pſal. 83.4.
In his Pavilion] The Hebrew Succoh is written with a little Samech, to ſhew, ſay the Maſorites, Quod tabernaculum exile [non-Latin text not transcribed] eſt aſylum tutiſſimum. that a little pavilion or cottage where God is, ſhall be ſufficient to ſafeguard the Saints.
In the ſecret of his tabernacle] I ſhall bee as ſafe, as if I were ſhut up in his holy Ark.
Hee ſhall ſet mee upon a Rock] Out of mine enemies reach.
