And this Covenant is either the general Covenant that we renew, or else a particular Covenant, with respect to some particular duties that we engage our selves unto: Or else both together. As in the public fast observed by the children of Israel in Nehem. 9. both Princes and Nobles and people renewed their general Covenant to walk in God's Law, which was given by Moses the servant of the Lord, and particularly they covenanted not to give their Daughters to the people of the Land, nor take their Daughters for their Sons, as we read Nehemiah Chap. 10. ver. 19, 20. and the Covenant being written, their Princes, Levites and Priests did seal to it. So if a Church ⟨p. 257⟩or people have contracted guilt upon themselves by the omitting of some duties, or the committing of any sins, for which the Lord may have a controversy with them. It is a proper work upon a day of fasting to engage themselves to a reformation by a solemn renewing their Covenant with God.
