4. From the East also came the most Blasting Winds, Winds that are destructive to Man and Beasts; to Fruit, and Trees; and Ships at Sea, Exo. 10.13. Job 27.21. Ezek. 17.10. Chap. 19.12. Psal. 48.7. Ezek. 27.26.
I say, The East Wind, or that which comes from thence, is the most hurtful; yet you see, the Temple hath set her Face against it, to show that the true Church cannot be blasted or made turn back by any Affliction. 'Tis not East Winds, nor none of their blastings, that can make the Temple turn about. Hence he saith, That Jacobs Face shall not wax pale. And again, I have made thy Face strong against their Faces, and that the Gates of Hell shall not prevail against it. Isa. 29.22. Ezek. 3.8. Mat. 16.18.
