Lastly let us conclude the matter, that if we will speak properly, it is not to be said that God either willeth or bringeth forth sin, in that it is sin: for what soever God willeth, & whatsoever he doth, it is good. But sin, in that it is sin, is evil. Wherefore god neither willeth nor doeth it, in that it is sin: yea he detesteth, prohibiteth, and punisheth it by his laws. And if at any time it be said in the Scriptures, that he either willeth or worketh sin in men, that must be referred unto other considerations, which I have declared both in an other place, and also now here. And this is sufficient as touching this question.

And God sent an evil spirit. By an evil spirit I understand either the devil,1 or wicked affections, or cruelty stirred up to revenge injuries, but the end was to take vengeance for the blood of the sons of Jerubbaal.
