This subterranean Geography, gives a double character of it. 1. A land of darkness. 2. A land of the shadow of death; both which are aggravated by their additions. It is a land of darkness, but not of any ordinary darkness, It is a land of darkness, as darkness it self. It is a land of the shadow of death, not of an ordinary shadow of death, but of the shadow of death, 1. Without any order. 2. Where the light is as darkness.
This subterranean Geography, gives a double character of it. 1. A land of darknesse. 2. A land of the shadow of death; both which are aggravated by their additions.

It is a land of the shadow of death, not of an ordinary shadow of death, but of the shadow of death, 1. Without any order. 2. Where the light is as darknesse.
A land of darkness.
A land of darknesse.
That is, abounding with darkness, a land where darkness is the staple, and the only commodity to be had. Darkness is the hangings and ornament of the house of death. The grave is elsewhere called, A land of forgetfulness (Psal. 88.12.) because there all things are forgotten. We read (Jer. 12.5.) of a land of peace, that is, a land where peace abounds, a land in every corner whereof peace springs and groweth up. Canaan (Deut. 8.8.) was called, A good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths, that spring o•t of the valleys and hills, A land of wheat and barley, and vines, and fig-trees, and pomegranates; A land of oil olive, and of honey: That is, a land where these good things were natural and plentiful. A land where neighbour Nations might furnish themselves, and freight their ships with those commodities.
