for they have no Knowledge, no Understanding of the Time to come, no Consideration of their Danger: He that will not lend an Ear to Consideration, renders himself little better than a Brute: And what follows this Folly and Madness? therefore (saith the Holy Ghost) Hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure, and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth shall descend into it, Isa. 5.13, 14. A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand this, when the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish: It is that they should be destroyed for ever, Psal. 92.6, 7. The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his masters crib, but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider, Isa. 1.3.
