Psalms46:6
Verſ. 6. The Heathen raged] Among themſelves, and againſt the Church (Chriſt myſtical, as Pſal. 2.1, 2.) with great force and fury: Quia ab aſcenfore ſuo Damon[illegible: 1 letter] perur gentur, as Bernard giveth the reaſon, becauſe the Devil rideth them, and ſpurreth them on.
The King doms were moved] to remove and root out the Church, but that will not be; becauſe in the thing wherein they deal proudly, God is above them. See thoſe three ſweet ſimilitudes, Zech. 12.2, 3, 6.
He uttered his voyce] Thunder-ſtruck the enemies, and ſaved his people by a Miracle of his mercy, Pſal. 18.6, 7.
The earth melted] Centra naturam ſuam, quia eſt arida, ſaith Aben-Ezra; againſt the nature thereof, for it is dry. By the earth ſome underſtand the enemies, who had almoſt filled the whole Land with their multitudes.
