Here appeareth an allusion made, as there is in many other places of the scripture, to the princes of this world, which have books of the laws, of privileges, of institutes what thing is done, and is to be done, finally of secretes, of acts, of condemned, and of citizens, of life and of death. For so is both the book and books assigned to God. Moses saith in in the .33. of Exodus. Put me out of the book of life, &c. In the Psalms is much mention of these books of God: In the Psalm. 56.69.139. In the seventh of Daniel, books are opened whereof mention is made also in the .20. of the Apocalypse. We read in the .3. of Malach. of a book of remembrance before God. Therefore this book of God containeth all the counsels of God, all his works and judgements. For we shall hear by and by,1 that all things that are done in the world come out of this book, as it were out of a fountain or well spring.
