The word signifies a full retribution, it signifies also, in the Noun, peace; 1because when accounts are fully returned or rendered all is settled and quiet; when a man upon account is discharged, he hath a quietus est, that is an acquittance wherein he may be quiet; none can legally molest or trouble him. That which God will return to all men, they must and shall rest in, though that which he will render to man for his evil works unrepented of, will give him no rest.

The word is very general; he doth not say this, that, or 'tother work, but the work, which is as much as an universal, every work of a man, his good works, and his bad works, his open works, and his secret works, his great and lesser works, there is not the least grain of a mans works, that shall be unanswered or un-returned to him; and, when the Text saith the work of a man &c. we are not to take works in an exclusive sense, either first, as to words, as if God would render to man his works, but not his words; mans words will come to an account as well as his works; they must be answered for whether good or bad.
