Psalms46:5

Verſ. 5. God is in the midſt of her] Hence the Church is called Jehovali Shannonah, the Lord is there, Ezek. 48.35. there he hath ſet him up a Mercy-ſeat, a Throne of Grace, and paved his people a new and living way thereunto with the Bloud of his Son, ſo that they may come boldly, obtain mercy, and finde grace to help in time of need, Heb. 4.14.

She ſhall not be moved] Or, not greatly moved, Pſal. 62.2. in thoſe great commotions abroad the world, verſ. 2, 3. This buſh may burn, but ſhall not be conſumed; and that by the bleſſing of him that dwelt in the buſh, Deut 33.Exo. 14.23 Begneth have-ſhugnah. Kimchi. [non-Latin text not transcribed] built ſhee is upon a rock, Mat. 16.16, and ſo is every particular Beleever, Mat. 7.25. And if at any time they be in diſtreſs,

God ſhall help her, and that right early] Heb. When the morning appeareth; that is, in the nick of time, when help ſhall be moſt ſeaſonable, and beſt welcome. Mourning laſteth but till morning, Pſal. 30.5. the Church is invincible.
