Affliction compared to a Storm or Tempest.
Psal. 83.14, 15. As Fire burneth the Wood, and as Flame setteth the Mountains on Fire; so persecute them with thy Tempest, and make them afraid with thy Storm. Job 27.21. The East-Wind carrieth him away, and he departeth; and a Storm hurleth him out of his Place. Isa. 4.6. A Covert from the Storm. Isa. 25.4. — When the Blast of the terrible Ones is as a Storm against the Wall. Mat. 7.27. — And the Winds blew, and beat upon that House, and it f•ll, and great was the Fall of it.
BY Storms and Tempests are meant two things: 1. The terrible Wrath and Vengeance of God against the Wicked. 2. The fierce Wrath of the Ungodly against the Righteous.
