There is Balm at Gilead, there are Physicians there: Will there be ever so?1 Is there not a time to loose, as well as to get? Is whiles the Sanctuary is full of this holy Balm, Gods word ▪ if whiles there is plenty of Physicians, and in them plenty of skill, the health of Israel is not restored: how dangerous will her sickness be in the privation of both these restoratives? They that grow not rich in peace, what will they do in war? He that cannot live well in Summer, will hardly scape starving in Winter. Israel, that once had her Cities sown with Prophets, could after say, We see not our signs, there is not one Prophet among us. They ⟨p. 251⟩that whilome loathed Manna, would have been glad, if after many a weary mile, they could have tasted the crumbs of it. He, whose prodigality scorned the bread in his Fathers house, would afterwards have thought himself refreshed with the husks of Swi•e.
