When the Lord hath any use of a people,1 or of any particular men to do him service, he will preserve them though they be wicked, and when he hath done with them, he either lays them aside, or else brings them to the fire. A Husband-man so long as he hath use of thorns to stop a gap with them, he lets them alone, but when there shall be no further use of them, he then bring them to the fire. so God here, I will cause to cease the Kingdom of the house of Israel.
