It is reported to the honour of Judah in the day of their Covenanting with their God; 1They had sworn with all their heart, and with their whole desire. And their success was answerable to their sincerity; For so it follows, And the Lord was found of them, and gave them rest round about.

Oh that this might be our honour and happiness in this day of our lifting up our hands to the most high God, that God might not see in us a double heart, an heart, and an heart, as the Hebrew expresseth it: i. e. One heart for God, and another for our Idols; one heart for Christ, and another for Antichrist, &c. But he might see us a single-upright-hearted people, without base mixtures and composition (for he loves truth (i. e. sincerity) in the inward parts) that he finding such sincerity as he looks for; we also might find such success, as we look for; Safety and deliverance to both the Nations; yea, That both in respect of our sincerity and success, that might be made good upon us, that is spoken to the eternal honour of that good King Hezekiah. 1And in every work he began in the service of the house of God, and in the Law, and in the Commandments to seek his God; He did it with all his heart and prospered. Universal sincerity is accompanied with universal prosperity; in all he did, he was upright, and in all he did he prospered.
