Annot.

The Original 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 , signifies primarily and literally, to be carried up high in the air, as clouds or 〈◊〉 flying there, which because they have no firm foundation there, but are tost and driven about uncertainly: hence it signifies first 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 , vagari, to think of this and that without any consistence of mind. Secondly, to hang as the clouds do in the air, in an impatient 〈◊〉 , or 〈◊〉 . Thus to be in 〈◊〉 and uncertainty of resolution, is to 〈◊〉 in suspense. Joh. 10. 24. Dr. Ham. on Luk. 11. 29. Annot. a.

Dove]

;;A creature of a very 〈◊〉 and harmless nature; also fruitful, by means of often breeding, Matth. 10. 16.

;;2. The holy Ghost which is like a Dove for meekness and innocence, Mat. 3. 26. It is written, the holy Ghost came down from heaven like a Dove, Joh. 1. 32. To show it was no material Dove, but an appearance or show of one, (much less was the Spirit converted into a Dove) wherein he did please to manifest himself for that time and purpose, afterward vanishing. Also, the Dove is said to abide upon Christ in a twofold respect; first, of his humanity, 〈◊〉 the Spirit was perpetually present with it, to fill it with graces perfectly, both for number and measure. Secondly, in respect of his Deity or God-head, because the Spirit which is the third Person, is eternally joined with Christ the second Person, by or in a most marvelous unity of one and the self-same essence and nature.

;;3. Holy Church or company of believers, which is chaste and sincere, full of spiritual beauty, like a Dove, resting safe in a rock. Cant. 2. 5. My dove, &c. A Metaphor.

This is that 〈◊〉 , which being sent out of the Ark, returned with an Olive leaf in her mouth, as a sign of the ceasing deluge, and 〈◊〉 made between God and man, Gen. 8. 11. Hereunto the Church is compared, Can. 1. 15. And Christ commands his to be 〈◊〉 as Doves, Mat. 10. 16. And the Psalmist wisheth unto himself the wings of a dove, that he might the more swiftly flee from his troubles, Psal. 55. 7. It's gentle, fearful, simple, peaceable, having little or no gall. It's not noisome or harmful to other beasts or fowls. It was both lawful to eat it, and likewise to offer it in sacrifice. It feedeth not on 〈◊〉 , but picketh up the purest seed or grane, and loveth neatness, and the pure waters. It 〈◊〉 its young ones to keep their nest clean, and loveth the white color. Many seek its destruction, from which yet it saveth itself by its swift flying, but if it 〈◊〉 , then the 〈◊〉 easily seizeth on it. Its feathers are of 〈◊〉 colors, Psal. 68. 13. and therein it doth as it were take pride whose beauty in the sun-shine appears more then 〈◊〉 . It's of a 〈◊〉 and piercing sight, and can discern one kind of Hawk from another; and accordingly avoid them. The male and female love each other, and keep fidelity each toward other, and if any falling out be between them, they be quickly reconciled, manifesting the same, by their embracing each other. It 〈◊〉 men's dwelling houses, and to be in their company; and being carried from home, will return many miles to their own houses; of whom therefore some make use, by tying Letters about their necks, which their friends at home untie, and read, and are thereby acquainted with their mind. It quickly forgets injuries done unto it, as the spoiling of its nest, taking away its young, &c. It's very fruitful, having young ones almost every month. It's careful to feed both its 〈◊〉 young ones, and others too standing in need. It mourneth sometime, Isa. 38. 14. It feedeth not on blood. It usually hath two young ones, whom it nourisheth together in one nest, nor is the male less careful of them then the female, each by turn sitting on the egs, providing meat, &c. Being conscious of its own weakness, it flieth to the holes of the rocks, 〈◊〉 in danger, Jer. 48. 28. Amongst fowls it only grieveth not at the loss of its young ones, or when taken away. In drinking it lifteth not up its head till it have enough. The male when old cannot couple with the female, but kisseth it. There should 〈◊〉 strong love even in a weak body. It harms none either with its beak or claws, and by its dung recompenseth the harm it doth in eating up the corn.

As Noabs dove could find no rest til she returned to the Ark, so neither is sound rest to be found but in the Church. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 a dove, cometh of the root 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 〈◊〉 oppressed; which seemeth to imply, that the dove hath many enemies that oppress it. The Church, God's dove, is daily in danger to be oppressed.

Eyes of a dove]

;;Gracious, chaste, and most single, like to the eyes of a Dove. Cant. 1. 15. Thine eyes are like the eyes of a dove.

His eyes are as of 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 the rivers of water, Cant. 5. 12. Nothing is more known then that 〈◊〉 take great delight in Springs, and Fountains, and pure Rivers, and so are a fit and most proper emblem of the purity and holiness of Christ, whose eyes cannot so much as behold any iniquity, Hab. 1 13. and are meek, humble, pitiful, and full of compassion: for he looketh not after prey and blood, as 〈◊〉 and Eagles, whose eyes are not red and bloody, as the eyes of 〈◊〉 , with wine; not filthy and noisesome, as the letchers, which are full of adultery; nor fiery and glaring, as the 〈◊〉 and furious, whose eyes flame revenge, like a Dogs, or 〈◊〉 ; nor yet distorted and looking asquint, as the envious and malicious; but as the meek and gentle eyes of Doves, which to make them more gentle are washed in milk. Annot.

Dove]

He saw the Spirit of God descending like a Dove, Mat. 3. 16. That the holy Ghost doth here and in other places, did visibly appear, there is no doubt, but that he came upon Christ 〈◊〉 the body and shape of a Dove, cannot be concluded from this place, nor from the parallel, Mat. 1. 10. but only that the Spirit descended, and came, or lighted on him, as a Dove uses to do on anything, first 〈◊〉 and 〈◊〉 it. The Spirit descended, so as he might be (and was really) seen as it were a Dove, i. e. as a Dove visibly descends and lights on anything; or, in a manner somewhat resembling a 〈◊〉 ; not defining any shape 〈◊〉 the holy Ghost 〈◊〉 . Dr. Ham. Annot. 〈◊〉 .

Dove]

O my Dove; Cant. 2. 14. As when Christ was baptized, the holy Ghost appeared in the shape of a Dove (as a symbol of his presence) to discover thus much, That Christ should have the property and disposition of a Dove, and be meek and gentle, Mat. 11. 29. & 12. 20. And to show what his Office, should be; for even as the Dove in Noah's Ark was sent out and came home again to the Ark with an Olive branch, to show that the waters were abated; so Christ was to preach deliverance from the deluge of God's anger, and to come with an Olive leaf of peace in his mouth and reconciliation, to show that God's wrath was appeased: So all that are Christ's, the Spouse of Christ, have the disposition of Christ; That Spirit that framed him to be like a Dove, frames the Church to be a Dove, whereunto she is compared, and which we should resemble,

• 1. In meekness, Psal. 39. 1. Col. 3. 12. 1 Pet. 3. 4. Num. 12. 3. Zeph. 2. 1, 2.
• 2. In simplicity, being without guile; simple concerning evil, not in ignorance and simplicity, as in Hos. 7. 11.
• 3. In faithfulness: as it is faithful to the mate, so should we be to Christ, we must keep our judgments chaste, (must not be tainted with errors and sins) keep our 〈◊〉 chaste likewise, Rev. 14. 4. Psal. 73. 25.
• 4. In neatness: it will not lodge where it shall be troubled with stench, and likewise feeds upon pure gain, not upon carryon, so the Christian soul will not feed upon worldly carrion, or sinful pleasures, but upon Christ and spiritual things.
• 5. In loving communion and fellowship, Isa. 60. 8. God's children love the communion and fellowship one of another. Doves will consort with Doves, Christians with Christians, and none else.
• 6. In suffering: the Dove is molested by all birds of prey, so the poor Church of God is molested and persecuted, O that I had wings like a Dove, saith David.
• 7. As the Dove for its defense, hath nothing but flight, to mourn and to build on high: so the Church of God hath no other refuge but to be housed in God and Christ, he is our Ark, we must with 〈◊〉 , Jer. 38 mourn to God, who hears the bemoanings of his own Spirit in us: and build on him, as on a rock to be safe in him. Sibs.

Our eyes must not be proud, lustful, envious, wanton, &c. but like those of the Dove, meek, humble, pure, peaceable, fixed upon God, and by an holy intention waiting on him for life and devotion, Cant. 1. 19. Annot.

We must be bashful and modest, not daring to lift up our eyes after other lovers, Ezek. 18. 6. but only to the true God, Isa. 17. 7. Annot.

It's said of the Dove, that it only amongst birds bewaileth not, when its young ones are taken from it; God's Church should rather rejoice then grieve, when God is glorified by the death of any her members, for the blood of Martyrs hath proved the seed of the Church. Doves are fruitful, and is not the Church so? When there's any variance between them, how soon are they reconciled? and should not we? Its flesh is good against the Pestilence, and is not Christ fed upon against sin?

Like a 〈◊〉 Dove]

;;The Israelites to hold on their folly and sottishness, with great credulity and simpleness, calling for help to such as were their enemies, and would become their snare. Hos. 7. 11. Ephraim is like a silly Dove without a heart.

;; Note: A Dove is commended for fecundity, or plentiful increase: also for simplicity and innocence: wherein the Dove is a figure 〈◊〉 type of the Church, which besides her increase is also innocent, being exposed to injuries on all sides, yet suffering all without any revenge.

This verse describeth the affection of those who faithfully plant in God's vineyard; they do not forthwith despair when they see not present fruits of their labors, but take the more pains with their plants, their auditors, by how much nearer they perceive God's judgments are on their barrenness; and pray the Lord to spare them. See 2 Tim. 24. 25. Exod. 32. 31. Annot.

Drag]

Hab. 1. 15. or Flue-net, marg.

Burn incense to their drag, Ib. 16. Instead of acknowledging all their greatness to come from God, and giving him thanks, and serving him, they attributed it unto themselves, and to their industry, understanding, and valor, arrogating that to themselves which was only due to him. Annot.

Dragging the net with fishes]

Joh. 21. 8. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 , is properly to sweep the ground, as they do who fish with 〈◊〉 or 〈◊〉 , whose plummets sink the lower part of the Net to the ground, lest the enclosed fish should escape. 〈◊〉 .

Dragon]

;;A fierce and cruel Beast, full of strength, and very 〈◊〉 for his force and power. Psal. 148. 7. Ye Dragons and depths.

;;2. The Devil who is called a great and red Dragon in respect of his exceeding strength, and bloody cruelty against the Saints: which must serve, to make us watchful and fervent in prayer against his grievous assaults. Rev. 12. 3, 9. And the great Dragon, the old 〈◊〉 . A Metaphor.

;;3. The greatest evils and enemies which may 〈◊〉 and beset us in this life. Psal. 91. 13. The young Lyon and the Dragon thou shalt tread under thy feet; that is, Thou shalt overcome even thy strongest enemies. The King of Babel for cruelty likened to a Dragon, Jer. 51. 34. Also, Ezek. 29. 3, And Antichrist, Rev. 13. 4.

4. Tyrants, Psal. 74. 13.

5. The whale, Ezek. 32. 2. marg.

Its biting is venomous, and fishes bitten thereby, die. It's afraid of a naked man, setteth upon him, if clothed. It's recorded of one Dragon, that being dead, eight pair of Oxen could scarcely move him from his place; Of another, that he was 120 foot long; and of a third, that being killed, a whole child was found in his belly, whom he had devoured; as in others a whole Hart, or Bull. Being tamed, it's not harmful, but very familiar. It's of a pleasant aspect. Their bodies are medicinal against diseases and poison.

They are delighted with men's songs. They have three rouse of teeth, great eyes, and piercing, and hear well. There are some which 〈◊〉 hungry 〈◊〉 themselves toward the West, and gaping wide, with the source of their breath, draw birds that fly over their heads into their throats. Some have wings, and no feet, others both, and some neither.

There's enmity between them and the Eagles, both on the earth and in the air; also between them and the Elephants; when they would do most harm, they eat most poisonable herbs. They kill also with their tail. Some of them have an infectious breath, and seldom sleep. They have their venom in their tongue and gall. They are also very subtle, for thirsting after the Elephants blood, it getteth upon a tree, and from thence leapeth on his back, taketh hold of his trunk, &c. not leaving him till it kill him.

Dragon]

;;The Devil, for his terrible 〈◊〉 likened to a Dragon, being the Prince of that Army, that maintaineth war against Christ. Rev. 12. 8. Michael faught against the Dragon. Some other, by the Dragon, understand unrighteous and cruel Princes, assisted and strengthened by false Teachers, Corrupters of the truth, Heretics, &c. All which join in battle together against the truth, and the sincere maintainers of it: but in chap. 20. 2. the Dragon is there expounded to be the Devil and Satan, who yet must work by meet instruments. All which having one common work, and being but one corporation with the Devil their Captain, are therefore well comprehended under one name; as the whole company of the faithful bear the name of Christ their head, 1 Cor. 12. 12.

The Devil is called Metaphorically a 〈◊〉 or Dragon:

• 1. In allusion to that story, Gen. 3. Because under this form and representation he deceived mankind.
• 2. For his poison and malice whereof he is full.
• 3. For his exceeding strength and power, to hurt and destroy.
• 4. For his slightness, subtlety and craft, verse. 9. and Gen. 3. 1.

This his nature is couched in his name, 〈◊〉 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 , acute 〈◊〉 , to see 〈◊〉 , for he is subtle, acute, and quick sighted to discem a far off his prey, and advantage against us.

The Greek word 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 , used verse 3. translated red 〈◊〉 emphatical, noting him to be a fiery Dragon, fiery red, set on fire, and all inflamed with an hellish flame of wrath and cruelty against the Church of God.

By the Dragon are also meant the instruments of Satan's fury, Jer. 51. 34. Ezek. 29. 3. Psal. 74. 13. Also some more special instruments, the Heathen persecuting 〈◊〉 of Rome. Leighs Annot.

Said to be red, for 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 . Great, for 〈◊〉 they reigned in that great City, which 〈◊〉 over the Kings of the 〈◊〉 , chap. 17. 18. all 〈◊〉 out by 〈◊〉 Dragon, for that they all worshipped in their Idolatry, the Devil, One in their cruel nature against Christians; One in place 〈◊〉 another; One in Government, and therefore are all but One head, in Chap. 17. verse. 18. 〈◊〉 .

To come and cleave unto Christ is a divine work, the work of God himself, and steps beyond the reach of man, which no human foot can tread, no wit can climb unto or comprehend, unless it be framed and fashioned from above. A work which of all others we are most untoward unto, of such difficulty, that we must be drawn and hailed, and violently pulled out of ourselves, before we can once settle about it, having neither power, nor so much as will unto it. The 〈◊〉 cause is not in ourselves, it cometh from Christ alone, who speaking to our heart by the Ministry of the Word, and the 〈◊〉 allurements of his Spirit, pulleth us out of this present evil world, and draweth us after him. Finch.

He is stronger then the powers of darkness, and able not only to open the heart, and offer salvation to it, but also to convert it, and translate it to his Kingdom, that so it may pass from death unto life. Annot.

We must not only get a knowledge of 〈◊〉 own inability, but seek unto Christ for supply of such defect. The high way unto God is spiritual misery, and beggary. Clapham.

Drink of the Wine of the wrath of her fornication, Rev. 14. 8. or, of the poisoned wine of her sornication, chap. 17. 2. for the Hebrew word to which the Greek here answereth, signifieth poison as well as wrath.

Or, She made God angry with them, as well as with herself, by drawing them to the same Idolatry. Or, because when God is angry, and goeth to punish wicked men, he is said to have a cup in his hand, of poisoned wine, to give every man his part, according to his merit, that men might know these judgments came from him, and not by chance, Job 21. 20.

The meaning is, that so great was her cruelty, as intemperate persons do not more greedily draw in the most delicate wine, then she shed the blood of God's people.

She was not only outwardly sprinkled with it, but inwardly surfeited. Such abundance of Martys did she kill, and commanded everywhere to be killed. Chap. 16. 6. & 18. 24.

〈◊〉 ]

Behold thou shalt he dumb, Luk. 1. 20. The Heb. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 , as the Gr. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 , signifies both a dumb man, and a deaf, and is wont to be rendered either by 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 , or by 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 , Mic. 7. 16. i. e. growing, or becoming deaf, for there the Context refers to the ears. In this place one of the significations of the Heb. seems to be put for the other, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 , 〈◊〉 , or dumb (if we believe Theophilact and the Ancients ) for 〈◊〉 , deaf, and so that which is added, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 , and not able to speak, will be no 〈◊〉 , but 〈◊〉 him dumb also. For that he was not only dumb, but deaf, appears by his friends, who did not speak, but 〈◊〉 , and make signs to him, verse. 62.
