[ 1428] Gods Watchfulnesse over his People
for their good.
THe Egyptians had an Idol,* 1.1 called Baal-Zephon, which is by interpretation,
Dominus speculae, Lord of the Watch-Tower▪ his office was to fright such
Fugitive Iews, as should offer to steal out of the Country; but when Moses and
the People of Israel past that way▪ and pitched their Camp there, this drowsie
god was surely fast asleep, for they all marche•• on their way without let or mo∣lestation;
* 1.2 Whereas He that keepeth Israel neither slumbreth nor sleepeth; He
kept his Israel then, and since; He made good his Title then, and will do the
like to us; his eyes run to and fro through the World, He is Watchfull over his
People for their good.
