ESAY IX.

THAT this darkness shall be a worse darkness and affliction then that was in Galilee, in their captivity, either by Hazael or the Assyrian, for those places saw light afterward, for the Gospel began there, but the contempt of the Gospel should bring misery irrepara∣ble: He speaketh again glorious things concerning Christ, the Child promised, before Davids house fail, the Prince of Peace, and * 1.1 Father of Eternity: A letter of note and remarkableness is in the word 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 Lemarbeh in ver. 7. Mem clausum, to shew the hiddenness and mysteri∣ousness of Christs Kingdom different from visible pomp, and to hint the forty years before Jerusalems destruction, when this Dominion increased through the world. The juncture of the first verse of this Chapter, with the last of the preceding, and this subject of vers. 9. & 11. shew plainly, that this Chapter is of the same time with those two before.
