Vers. 13.
And it shall come to passe, that as yee were a curse among the heathen, O house of Iudah, and house of Israel, so will J de∣liuer you, and yee shall be a blessing: feare not, but let your hands be strong.
* 1.1AN amplification of their ioyfull estate, by the description, and happines of the time to come also. For this happines shall be so great, that in time to come it shall be a forme of praying or wishing of the blessing of God vnto others, or vnto themselues. So then this happines of the Iewes shall be both manifest vnto all men, and also great, and to be wished for by the consent and agree∣ment of all men. And moreouer God both by the comparing to∣gether of the former miserie of the said Iewes: and also by the shewing of his minde and purpose toward them, doth make this promise toward them to bee the more welcome, and euident.

God against them being captiues, were to bee seene both mani∣fest, and bitter. And in this respect doth Dauid Psalm. 102. ver. 8. complaine that hee sometimes was a reproch vnto his enemies, saying: Mine enemies reuile me daylie, and they that rage against me, haue sworne against me. But now, and hereafter they were a forme and patterne of the great fauour and blessing of God. And by the shewing of his minde toward them, he maketh this pro∣mise the more welcome and euident vnto them, for that hee will (saue) them, that is, deliuer them out of all their miseries, and blesse them, yea and that also for the time which was to come, and to follow afterward Psalm. 37 in the end. Last of all is added a con∣clusion necessarilie gathered of all these things before, to wit, the exhortation vnto the worke of the Temple lustilie, and without feare either of disturbance or letting, or that their labour should be vnprofitable and vnfruitefull. For hereunto appertaineth the summe of these promises, to wit, that they restore and set vp a∣gaine the temple, that is to say, the worship and seruice of God.
