25 And the same night, The Lord said unto him, Take thy fathers young bullock, & the other bullock of vii. years old, & destroy the altar of Baal, that thy father hath, & cut down the grove, that is by it. 26 And build an altar unto the Lord thy god upon the top of this rock in a plain place, & take the second bullock, & offer a burnt offering with the wood of the grove, which thou shalt cut down.
25 And the same night, The Lord said vnto him, Take thy fathers yong bullok, & the other bullok of vii. yeares old, & destroy the altar of Baal, that thy father hath, & cut downe the groue, that is by it. 26 And build an altar vnto the Lord thy god vpon the top of this rocke in a playne place, & take the second bulloke, & offer a burnt offring with the wood of the groue, whiche thou shalt cut downe.
That which before was in a sum spoken, is now particularly expressed. Some think ye two bullocks are here mentioned, of which the one is called the second other by order of nativity, or as they stood in order at the rack & manger. And that second, is specified, to be vii. year old, in at which time being made fat, at the length to be offered to Baal: this bullock god would have offered unto himself for a burnt offering. And because there is no farther mention made of the first bullock, neither did god command what he would have done with it, therefore I think we must understand but one & the self same bullock which before is put absolutely, & then by exposition repeated that he might be by some certain tokens known from other bullocks, whereof peradventure his father had many, so that it was vii. years fatted, & stood in the second stall. And as touching the vii. years fating there is no cause why we should marvel at it,
