Note from it, before we put the words together, thus much,
That an hypocrite hath a trust of his own, a trust like himself.
Whose trust. An hypocrite doth most things which the upright and sincere hearted do, and he seems to have every thing which the upright and sincere hearted have. Do they pray? so doth he. Do they hear? see doth he. Do they fast? so doth he. Have they faith? He hath a faith too. Have they the fear of God? he also hath a kind of fear. Have they zeal? so hath he; yea, the zeal of hypocrisy burns hotter for a blast, then the zeal of sincerity. He hath grace proper to his state; false grace for his false heart; he hath trust, such as it is, a trust which belongeth to all of his rank; see the character of it in the next words.
