But we leave generals and come to the words; though there be many excellent things in the Chapter to make way to that I have read; yet because I would not be hindered, I will come instantly to the words, which are as it were a recapitulation of all, containing the substance of all; as if he had said, I have spoken of many particulars that God doth for his people; but there is none like unto the Lord, who is glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders. There are four things (you see then) wherein the name of God is advanced here: First, there is none like the Lord: Secondly, glorious in holiness: Thirdly, fearful in praises: Fourthly, doing wonders.
