First the thing is evident, inasmuch as the day will come when the children of Israel shall be no more oppressed by the great ones of the earth; ⟨p. 118⟩There will be a time when the man of the earth shall no more oppress, Psal. 10.18. Hence Isa. 54.1•. thou shalt be far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear, and from terror, for it shall not come near thee. Hence Peter said unto the Jews, that after their repentance, times of refreshing shall come, Acts 3.19. Now what do these times of refreshing note, but a day, wherein there shall be freedom from all persecution and corporal oppressions?
