That the day of Gods peoples affliction, is the day of their rebuke. Obs. 1 See this proved in Numb. 12.14. Moses saith: If her father had spit in her face should she not be ashamed: When God afflicts His people, he doth as it were spit in their faces: and ought not ⟨p. 449⟩they much more to be ashamed? what ever that wanton generation think or say, that God never chastiseth his people for sin, there is nothing more frequent in Scripture, than this, that God chastiseth His for sin. But they tell us it was in the old Testament;1 and herein they show their weakness and a mere cavil, but that which seems to have some show of strength is this.
