Hence it comes to pass, that God shoots his arrows of Pestilence into one City, and not into another; into one Town, and not into another; into one Family, and not into another; into one Kingdom and Country, and not into another. Exod. 8. 20, 21, 22, 23. and Exod. 9. 22, 23, 24, 25, 26. 2 Sam. 24. 15. Turn to all these Scriptures, and ponder upon them.
