3. By promises, that Gods people shall do so. The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day, 1that is, they shall increase more and more in strength.2 Gods gentleness makes his people great, and enlargeth their steps under them.3 The feeble among them at that day shall be as David, 4and the house of David shall be as God, as the Angel of the Lord before them. Pareus in his short notes which he calls his Adversaria, saith, He that is weak in faith, shall be as David, strong in faith.
