5. His treasure, his peculiar treasure, Exod. 19. 5. Ye shall be a peculiar treasure to me above all people, for all the earth is mine: that is called peculium, 1which the son and heir of the house hath of his own, besides the right of his fathers inheritance, which he may dispose of as he thinks good: so though the earth be the Lord Christs by inheritance, by right of creation, yet he hath a special interest in his Church, above all other. God hath treasure in the works of nature, and it is called his good treasure, Deut. 28. 12. The Lord shall open to thee his good treasure; but this is his peculiar treasure.
