The word here rendered Behold, is not the same which we translate Behold in the former verse, nor is it the same word which signifieth to see in the former part of this verse.1 Some make a difference between seeing in the former part of the verse,2 and Beholding in the latter. Holy and good men see the wo•ks of God clearly and distinctly,3 they look on them with delight and contentment; the common sort of men only behold •hem, first, darkly, as at a distance; secondly, confusedly and in gross. Man may behold it ⟨p. 355⟩Afar off.
