Quest. 17. v. 23. What this Araunah the Iebu∣site was.

1. Hee is called also Ornan, 1. Chron. 21. it was no straunge thing in those daies for one to be called by diuerse names: or he beeing a straunger his name might be some∣what altered in the pronuntiation, as names are when they are vsed or taken vp in a straunge language: Mart. 2.

Borrh. for it seemeth by this that all the Iebusites were not expelled Ierusalem, but there remained some either conuerted to their faith, or else they became tributarie and seruants vnto them: sure it is, that he was one of Dauids chiefe freinds, and was spared, when the rest of the Ie∣busites were ouercome at the taking of the fort of Sion: Ioseph. 4. In that Dauid commeth to build an Altar in the ground of a straunger, it was an euident type of the vocation of the Gentiles, among whome the Lord would haue his Church. Mart.
