And in the 33 of Isa. v. 17. there it's promised to them that are upright, that they should see the King in his Glory. Thine eyes shall see the King in his beauty. The Promise is made to those that are described in the 15. vers. Jesus Christ, the King, that was so much desired in former times, shall appear in his beauty and glory unto them. And in the 102. Psam there's a clear Prophecy of this Estate of Jerusalem, when the Lord shall make it the praise of the whole Earth. Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion, for the time to favour her, yea the set time is come, vers. 16. But in the 15. vers. So the Heathen shall ⟨p. 64⟩fear the Name of the Lord, and all the Kings of the Earth thy Glory. When the Lord shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his Glory. There will be a glorious appearing, when God shall come to build up Zion, and make Jerusalem as the Praise of the whole Earth. God hath appeared gloriously in all his works in former times; but this great work is the greatest next the sending of his Son into the World, to be made flesh; It is the greatest that ever was done; the building up of Zion, Then God shall appear in his Glory. When the Marriage of the Saints shall be, the new Jerusalem, that is, the Spouse of Christ. As Parents do use to put on their best Garments, in the time when they marry their Children; so in the time when the Lord shall raise Jerusalem, thus it shall be, as a great Marriage-day of the Church to Christ. Now there is a Marriage of particular Souls to Christ; but then there shall be a glorious Marriage of the Universal Church to Jesus Christ, as in a Body; and then the Lord shall appear in his Glory: There shall be a more glorious presence of God and Jesus ⟨p. 65⟩Christ with the Saints, than yet we have had.
