1. A Bow is a weapon of War, an instrument of death, and being ascribed to God after the manner of men, holds out, his strength, power, might, and efficacy to do what ever he pleaseth. And this is said to be quite naked: when a man goes about to use his Bow, he pulls it out of his Quiver, and so makes it naked. The exercising of Gods Power, is the making naked of his Bow. This he did in all those wonders, wherein he stretched out his hand, in bringing his people into the promised Land, here pointed at. And it is said that with nakedness it was made naked, because of those very high dispensations and manifestations of his Almighty Power. This is the making naked of his Bow.
