But I shall keep to our Reading; he shall save the humble person (or according to the strictness of the Hebrew) He shall save him that is low of eyes, 'tis frequent in Scripture to express an humble person in this form; A man that hath low eyes; as high looks and lofty eyes, are every where in Scripture the periphrasis of pride. ⟨p. 287⟩David said (Psal. 101.5.¹) him that hath an high look and a proud heart will I not suffer; for you may see pride in the eye, pride sits upon the eye, therefore David puts a high look and a proud heart both together there. And again (Psal. 131.1.) Lord mine heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty. So that I say an humble person, and a person of low eyes, is the same, as a proud person, and a person of lofty eyes is the same in Scripture sense, and both are very significant Expressions; He shall save the humble person, this humble person, may be taken two ways, either passively, or actively.

But I shall keep to our Reading; hee shall save the humble person (or according to the strictnes of the Hebrew) He shall save him that is low of eyes, 'tis frequent in Scripture to expresse an humble person in this forme; A man that hath low eyes; as high lookes and lofty eyes, are every where in Scripture the periphrasis of pride. ⟨p. 287⟩David sayd (Psal. 101.5.¹) him that hath an high looke and a proud heart will I not suffer; for you may see pride in the eye, pride sits upon the eye, therefore David puts a high looke and a proud heart both together there. And againe (Psal. 131.1.) Lord mine heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty. So that I say an humble person, and a person of low eyes, is the same, as a proud person, and a person of lofty eyes is the same in Scripture sence, and both are very significant Expressions; He shall save the humble person, this humble person, may be taken two wayes, either passively, or actively.
