1. The Curse of God stays not upon the parents, 1but goes towards the children; in Deut. 28. 18. Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and especially to the children of Idolaters.2 In Psal. 137. 8. O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us, happy shall he be that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.3 And in Isa. 13. 18. Their Bows also shall dash the young men to pieces, and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the ⟨p. 258⟩womb;4 their eye shall not spare children. So in the second Commandment, the Lord there threatens, to visit the sins of the fathers, upon the children, to them that hate him, to the third and fourth generation.
