- 17. Prop.
And he looked that it should bring forth fruit,1, Isa. 5. 2. This heavenly Husbandman waits for the fruits of his fields also; never did any Husbandman long for the desired Harvest, more than God doth for the fruits of holiness from his Saints; great are the expectations of God from his people: And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the Husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.
