First, That the righteous are in a scattered condition while they are in this world, and that three wayes.
First, They are scattered among the wicked and ungodly of the world, as Sheep among Wolves, as Limbs among Lions, rent and torn in pieces, forced to wander up and down in Sheep-skins, and Goat-skins.
Secondly, The righteous are scattered in the world one from another, and that two ways: 1. They are scattered by their different habitations; for the godly are forced to separate one from another, as Lot from Abraham. 2. They are scattered one from another by the cruel persecution of wicked men; and therefore you read Acts 8. that at that time when there was a persecution against the Church at Jerusalem, that they were all scattered abroad.
