1. Where a matter worthy to be seen, or earnestly desired, is to be seen; this particle is premised: as if it were said, Behold it is here before you: or, Behold it is here to be seen: Thus it declareth the evidence of a thing: as where it is said, Behold, there came wise men from the East, Matt. 2. 1. And so it is a note of demonstration. 2. When a matter that deserves more then ordinary attention is delivered, men use to premise this particle Behold: as when Christ uttered that excellent Parable, that setteth down the different kinds of hearers, he thus begins, Hearken, Behold, Mar. 4. 3. 3. When a strange and wonderful matter that will hardly be credited, is delivered, we thus express it, Behold; as, Behold I show you a mystery, 1 Cor. 15. 51. That mystery was a great wonder indeed; namely, that we shall not all sleep.
