Vers. 13.

But in that day agreat tumult of the Lord shall be among them, and euery one shall take the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall ris•• vp against the hand of his neighbour.

* 1.1A Threatning of the sayd iudgement of God against the enemies of the Church, but extraordinarily, and altogether miraculous∣lie, to wit, for that the selfe same enemies of the Church shall both be taken with a panical or distraughtfull kinde of sudden feare, as they call it: and also shall murther one another, so that God shall destroy them by themselues. Hereof wee haue examples in the Scriptures, as Iudg. 7. ver. 22. in the Madianites murthering one an other, comming to fight against the Israelites: and likewise 1. Sam. 14. ver. 15.20. of a sudden feare sent by God vpon the armie of the Philistims, by meanes whereof they fell one vpon another, and slew each other: and Christ hath foretold the like, Matth. 24. ver. 7. the which things also haue been since Christ, yea, and in our time, to wit, when as people, which haue persecuted the Church of God, haue afterward with mutuall warres and battels within themselues slaine one another, and haue been most pitifull spectacles of this prophesie vnto the whole wo••••••▪ The which examples if the world, our historie ••riters haue not marked, their c••reles••es doubtles is very, great, yet neuerthelesse do the examples hereof appeare in the Kings of Syria, and of Egypt, who after they haue afflicted the Church, haue in like maner destroyed themselues.* 1.2
