First, The solemn day it is the day of Gods wrath, in Lament. 2. 22. Thou hast called as in a solemn day,1 my terrors round about, so that in the day of the Lords Anger none escaped. So that the solemn day is the day of the Lords anger there.
First, The solemn day it is the day of Gods wrath, in Lament. 2. 22. Thou hast call'd as in a solemn day,1 my terrors round about, so that in the day of the Lords Anger none escaped. So that the solemn day is the day of the Lords anger there.
And Secondly, The day of Gods Feast, that time when God doth execute his wrath upon wicked men is the day of a feast to God.1 In Revel. 19. 17, 18. verses, (besides other texts) An Angel cried with a loud voice to all the fowls that fly in the Heavens, Come, and gather your selves together to the supper of the great God, that ye may eat the flesh of Kings, and the flesh of Captains, and the flesh of Mighty men, and the flesh of Horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men both free and bond, both small and great: it is the day of the Lords feast. Now 'tis a solemn day,2 a day of the execution of Gods wrath, because now God executes wrath publicly and brings much wrath together. Thou hast called as in a solemn day my terrors round about. You know that in the day of a petty Sessions there may be some justice done, but more privately: But in a day of solemn Assizes, when there is a full Goal delivery, then judgment is done publicly; so God executes justice sometimes upon men particularly, but God hath his solemn day to execute his judgments publicly before all, and then the Lord feasts.
