1And than, like as God in himself giveth to the glorified all goodness, so will he remove all evil from the same: so that they be not only delivered from calamities, but the same shall never return, nor be feared more. The which in most plentiful wise he declareth, by words borrowed out of the oracles of the prophets. God shall wipe away, sayeth he, all tears from their eyes. Which kind of speech he used also in the .7. chap. verily taken out of the .25. and .65. chap. of Isaiah. And David also in .126. Psalm. They that sow in tears, sayeth he, shall reap in gladness. He seemeth to have alluded to mothers, which wipe the eyes of their tender and dear children crying, comfort the sorrowful, and cherish them hurt or bruised. Therefore if the Saints have suffered any pain or grief in this world, when they shall come into an other world, it shall be requited them, and provided, that they shall feel no more adversity. The lord said also in the gospel: verily verily I say unto you ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and you shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy, &c. In the .16. of John.
1And than, like as God in himself geueth to the glorified al goodnes, so wil he remoue al euil from the same: so that they be not only deliuered frō calamities, but the same shal neuer retourne, nor be feared more. The whiche in moste plentifull wise he declareth, by wordes borrowed out of the oracles of the prophetes. God shal wipe awaye, sayeth he, al teares frō their eyes. Which kinde of speach he vsed also in the .7. chap. verely taken out of the .25. and .65. chap. of Esaye. And Dauid also in .126. Psalm. They that sowe in teares, sayeth he, shall reape in gladnes. He semeth to haue alluded to moothers, which wipe the eyes of their tender and dere childrē criyng, comforte the sorrowfull, and cherishe them hurte or bruissed. Therfore if the Sainctes haue suffered any payne or grefe in this world, when they shal come into an other world, it shal be requited thē, and prouided, that they shal fele no more aduersitie. The lord sayde also in the gospel: verely verely I saie vnto you ye shal wepe and lamēt, but the world shal reioyce: and you shal be sorowfull, but your sorowe shall be tourned into ioye, &c. In the .16. of Iohn.
