An exposition with practical observations continued upon the thirty-fifth, thirty-sixth, and thirty-seventh chapters of…

Some read, God is high in his own power; that carrieth Elihu's ⟨p. 334⟩reason strongly in it, God is exalted in his power above all others; and therefore it is no way suitable or consentaneous unto reason, that the greater power should be questioned, much less condemned of injustice by the lesser power: There must be a parity, a coordination, or a co-equality at least, if not a superiority, where judgement is given. That's a great truth, God is exalted in his own power.

David (Psal. 21.13.) turns it into a prayer, or wish, Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thine own strength. He makes a like prayer, (Psal. 108.5.) The Lord in other places declareth himself p• remptorily in it, (Psal. 46.10.) Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the Heathen, I will be exalted in the Earth. It shall be so whether men will or will not; whether men will or no, God will be exalted, because he is exalted in his own power, not in any derived power, or power given him from the creature, Men or Angels. The power which God puts forth in his works exalt him, or show him to be a great, a mighty God. Behold, God is exalted by his own power.
