Then she that is my enemy shall see it.]1
- 11.
When the Church is delivered then the enemy must down: when the rod in GODS hand hath corrected his children, it must be cast into the fire: When the wicked have refined GODS people, themselves must be cast into Hell: When GODS children have drunk of the top of the cup of GODS wrath, the wicked shall wring out the very dregs, and drink them, Psa. 75. 8. Esa. 10. 12. When Ashur had punished GODS people, and began to burst with pride, then GOD sets upon him and destroys him. But observe here the persecutors shall see the rising again and prosperity, which will burst their very heart with envy and make them gnash the teeth, as a piece and beginning of that hellish gnashing of the teeth hereafter, when they shall see those blessed ones, whom they have so hated and persecuted, sit down with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, in the kingdom of Heaven and themselves excluded.
