1. It bringeth such as have had abundance, enough for themselves and all that belong unto them, yea and much over-plus for the relief of others, to extreme penury and beggary. It exhausteth all the money that the rich have, and forceth them to sell away all their goods, cattle, and lands, (Instance the Egyptians who sold all to Joseph, Gen. 47. 18, 19.) and to let go any thing: as Jacob, who let his darling 1Benjamin go into Egypt (Gen. 42. 11.)
