Sin a heavy Burden.
Psal. 38.4. For my Iniquities are gone over my Head, as a heavy Burden, they are too heavy for me. Heb. 12.1. Let us lay aside every Weight, and the Sin that doth so easily beset us, &c.
Weight [Greek or Hebrew],] signifies several Things; (1.) The Greatness of Heavenly Glory, 2. Cor. 4.17. (2.) Trouble, or the Wrath of Wicked Men, Prov. 27.3. which often presseth down the Godly. (3.) That which is ponderous, Things, Words, or Matters of Moment, in opposition to such Things, or Words, that are Light, Airy, &c. (4.) Sin, because it presseth down and is grievous to be born, &c.
