Which commandeth the Sun] He describes God in the posture and language of a King, giving out commands. He commandeth, 1God is the Sovereign of the Sun. Yet the word in the Hebrew is no more, but he saith, or he speaks to the Sun; so Mr Broughton translates, He speaks to the Sun that it riseth not: We, clearly to the sense, He commandeth the Sun, because the Word of God to the creature, is a Law or a Command upon the creature.
Which commandeth the Sunne] He describes God in the posture and language of a King, giving out commands. He commandeth, 1God is the Soveraign of the Sunne. Yet the word in the Hebrew is no more, but he saith, or he speaks to the Sunne; so Mr Broughton translates, He speaks to the Sunne that it riseth not: We, clearly to the sense, He commandeth the Sun, because the Word of God to the creature, is a Law or a Command upon the creature.
- 1[Greek or Hebrew] Dixi•, illud dicere est cum potestate imperandi.〈non-Latin alphabet〉 Dixi•, illud dicere est cum potestate imperandi.
He commandeth the Sun, and it riseth not.
He commandeth the Sunne, and it riseth not.
The phrase implies an ordinary, or a common event. But when was there such a thing as this? How rare are such events? I may ask, Did the Lord ever command the Sun that it should not rise? Or did ever any day appear, when the Sun did not appear? we may answer four or five ways.
