¶ The .xlix. Chapter.
¶ Of Iosiah, Hezechiah, Dauid, Ieremy, Ezechiel, Zorobabel,
Iesus, Nehemiah, Enoch, and Ioseph.
A The rem&ebar;braunce of note Iosias is lyke
as whan the apotycary maketh many
precyous swete smellynge thynges
together. His rem&ebar;bra&ubar;ce shalbe swete
as hony in all mouthes, and as the playeng
of Musyck at a b&abar;cket of wyne. He was appoynted
to turne the people agayne, and to
take awaye all abhominacyons of the vngodly,
He directed his herte vnto the Lorde,
and in the tyme of the vngodly he set vp the
worshyppe of God agayne. All kynges (except
Dauid, Hezechias and Iosiah) c&obar;mitted
wickednes, for euen the kinges of Iuda
also forsoke the lawe of God. For they gaue
theyr horne vnto other, theyr honoure and
worshyppe also to a straunge people.
B Therfore was the electe cytie of þe; Sanctuary
brent wyth fyre, note ∧ the stretes therof
laye desolate and waste: for they intreated
Ieremy euell, whych neuertheles was a
prophet ordeyned from his mothers w&obar;be,
that he myght rote out, breake of, note and destroye:
&abar;d that he myght buylde vp, ∧ plant
agayne. noteEzechiel sawe the glory of þe; Lord
in a vysion, which was shewed hym vpon þe;
charrette of the Cherubins. For he thought
vpon the enemyes in the rayne, to do good
vnto soch as had ordred their wayes a right
And the bones of the twelue prophetes floryshed
fr&obar; out of theyr place: for they gaue
comforte and consolacyon vnto Iacob, and
delyuered them faythfully. noteHow shall we
prayse Zorobabel, which was as a rynge in
the ryght hande?
C noteSo was Iesus also þe; sonne Of Iosedec:
these men in theyr tymes buylded the house
and set vp the S&abar;ctuary of þe; Lord agayne
which was prepared for an euerlasting worshyp.
noteAnd Nehemias is alwaye to be comm&ebar;ded, note
which set vp for vs the walles that
were broken downe, made the portes and
barres agayne, and buylded oure houses of
the new. noteBut vpon earth is there no man
created lyke Enoch, for he was tak&ebar; vp fr&obar;
the earth. noteAnd Ioseph, which was lorde of
hys brethren, and the vpholder of hys people:
his bones were couered and kept. Seth
and Sem were in great honour amonge the
people: and so was Adam aboue all the beastes,
whan he was created.
