1. Keep them in mind, for they are wonderful Dangers and Deliverances; They are Wonders, these are to be remembered. Marvellous thin•s did he for them, in the sight of their Fathers, &c. He divided the Sea, and caused them to pass through, and he made the waters to stand as an heap, Psal. 78. 12, 13. And it is brought in again in that Psalm. They remembered not his hand, nor the day when God delivered them out of the hand of the Ene•y, &c. Psal.. 73. 42. And in another place, Th•y forgot God their Saviour, which had done great things in Egypt, ⟨p. 133⟩Wondrous works in the Land of Ham, Psal. 106. 21. 22. This heightens the sin exceedingly to forget such Great and Wonderful Dangers and Deliverances.
