2 CHRON. X. all. And XI. [Division. 1] to Verse 5.

[World 3030] [Rehoboam. 1] [Ieroboam. 1] JEROBOAM of Ephraim draweth ten Tribes from the house of David, from the Tem∣ple that stood near it, and from the promise of Christ that was affixed to it. And this suddain rent of Solomons Kingdom, did plainly teach, that the King and Kingdom promised to David was not of this world, but of ano∣ther: which King and Kingdom the revolting Tribes have now forsaken, and by forsaking have lost Christ, have lost Religion, and have lost themselves: And here is a kind of an Antichristian faction now risen in the world before Christs appearing. The very foundation of this revolt of the Tribes was laid in the blood of Adoram: Rehoboam seeketh to reduce the people with a strong hand, whom with a gentle he would not retain.
