Lot is commanded, for the prefervation of him- Genefis felf and his Family, to get out of Sodom, and to fly to the mountain; but by much entreaty he obtaineth leave to go into Zoar. Sodom, Gomorrha, and all the Cities in the vale of Siddim, with all the inhabitants of them, are for the most horrible fins deftroyed by fire and brimstone from Heaven. The Dead Sea remains a monument thereof unto this day. Lots wife for looking back upon Sodom, contrary to Gods command, is turn'd into a pillar of Salt; and Lot himself fearing to continue at Zoar, leaves the plain Country, and betakes himself to the mountain, carrying his two daughters with him.

Upon the fteenth of the second month (our XVI.

The People being in great fear, God gives them fundry other Laws, all which being written in the book of the Covenant, Mofes propofeth them to the People: which done, rifing early in the morning, he builds an altar at the foot of the mountain, XXIV. and fets up 12 Statues according to the 12 Tribes of Ifrael, and fends 12 young men of the firft born, (whom the Lord had confecrated to himself, as minifters of thofe holy things, before the Levitical Priesthood was ordain'd) which offers facrifice, first for fin, and then for thanfgiving to the Lord and when Mofes had read the book of the Covenant, he takes the blood of the Calves and Goaths fo offer'd, and with water, fcarlet wooll, and hyffop, fprinkles the book therewith, and all the people, and thofe 12 ftatues representing them; and fo performs a folemn Covenant between God and his people. Mofes and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and 70 men XXIV. of the elders of Ifrael, go up into the mount, and 9, 18. there behold the glory of God: the reft returning, Mofes with his fervant Joshua abides there ftill, and waits fix days, and upon the seventh day God fpeaks unto him, and there he continues 40 days and 40 nights, (reckoning those fix days which he waited for the appearance of the Lord) eating no meat all that while, nor drinking water, (Dent. 9.9.) where he receives Gods command, touching the frame of the Tabernacle, the Priefts garments, their confecration, facrifice, and other things comprised in this and the fix following Chapters.

God renews his Covenant with his people, and upon certain conditions gives them his Laws again. In the first fix months of this year, the Taberna- XXXIX. cle, the Ark of the Covenant, the Altar, the Table of Shew-bread, the Friefts garments, the holy Ointments, the Candleftick, and other Utenfils and Veffels belonging to the Sacrifices, are finished in the defert at mount Sinai, and are brought unto Moses. The Tabernacle is fet up and anointed with holy Oyl; Aaron and his fons are Confecrated for the Priesthood.

The Princes of the tribes prefent their offerings Numb. towards the dedication of the Tabernacle. fpeaketh to Mofes from the Mercy-feat. The fecond Paflover is inftituted. Jethro, who is alfo called Hobab, brings his daughter Zipporah, with her two fons, Gerfhon and Eliezer, which were left with him, to his fon in law Mofes, and having congratulated his and the whole people of Ifraels deliverance out of bondage, he openly declares his faith and devotion towards the true God. By his advice Mofes imparts the government of the People to fome others, and ordains Magiftrates for the deciding of leffer caufes. Mofes complains to God of the over great burden Numb. XL of his government; God to eafe him of his charge, gives him for affiftance the Court of 70 Elders.

The People luft for flesh, God gives them Quails in wrath, and fends withal a moft grievous plague among them.

God rebuketh the Sedition of Miriam and Aaron, and maintaineth Mofes his right.

From the wilderness of Paran, near Kadesh-barnea, twelve men are fent (among whom are Caleb and Jofhua) to discover the land of Canaan, Returning, they bring with them a branch of a vine, with a clufter of grapes upon it; ten of the twelve fo fent, fpeak ill of the Country, declare it barren, and magnify the Cities for their strength, and the giantly ftature of the inhabitants.

The People terrified with this relation are about to return into Egypt, from which Caleb and Joshua endeavouring to diffwade them, are like to be stoned, At this God is fo provoked, that he threatens to deftroy them; but is prevailed upon by Mofes his prayers to fpare them. Nevertheless he denounceth that all who are now 20 years old and upward (except Caleb and Joshua) fhall die in the wildernefs. The men who raised the evil report are all destroyed by fudden death. Some endeavouring to enter upon the promised land contrary to the command of God, are fmitten by the Amalekites and Canaanites.

To their long continuance in Kadesh, and the Numb. encampings from thence, all that we find deliver'd XXXIII. in the 15th and four next enfuing Chapters of Num bers, feems to refer; as how Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, for rfing a mutiny against Mofes and Aaron, were fv allowed alive into the earth, and 250 of their affociates, and how the People mur, muring against Mofes and Aaron for the calamity which had befallen their brethren, were deftroyed by God to the number of 14700 men; and how 12 rods being brought by 12 princes, and laid in the fanctuary, Aarons rod only budded and brought forth Almonds and was laid up before the Ark, for a memorial to those who should afterwards be given to Rebellion.

In thefe 37 years the Ifraelites by 17 encampings, having compaffed the hill country of Seir and Edom, they come to the wilderness of Zin in the first month of the 40th year after their departure out of Egypt,

The People again for want of water, murmur against Mofes and Aaron, whom when God had commanded to call water out of the rock only by fpeaking to it, Mofes being moved in his mind through impatience and diffidence of the thing, Ipeaks fomething, whatever it was, unadvifedly with his lips, and strikes the rock thrice with Aarons rod, and thereby draws water from it; but for XX. 12, tranfgreffing Gods command, they are both debarr'd from entring into the land of Canaan.

In the fifth month of this year Aaron dieth at Mofera, on the top of mount Hor, at the Age of 123 years, leaving his fon Eleazar his fucceffor in the High-priesthood.

The People murmuring, are plagued with fiery XXI. 5, 9. ferpents, whereof many die; upon their repentance John III. God commands that a brazen ferpent be made and lifted up upon a pole, that as many as look on it 1 Cor, X. may live.

Ábout the latter end of this year, all those who at Kadesh-barnea mutinied against God being wholly extin& and dead, the Ifraelites pafs over Zered, and come to the border of Moab at Ar, and at length they arrive at Bamoth a valley in the Country of the Moabites, and pitch at mount Pifgah.

By his advice the women of Moab and Midian are fet on work to turn the Ifraelites away to Idolatry.

Laft of all God fends CVI. 28. a plague upon the people, whereof die 23000 men Apoc. II. in one day; which added to them which were hanged and killed with the fword, amount in all to 1 Cor.

Phineas the fon of Eleafar, by killing Zimri, the ehief of his fathers family, and Cozbi the daughter of Zur, a Prince of the Medianites, appeareth the wrath of God, and the plague ceafeth: God therefore fettleth the high priesthood for ever upon the houfe of Phineas, and commands that war be made upon the Midiamites.

He alfo renews the Covenant made by God with XXIX. them and their Children on mount Horeb, and again perfwades them to keep that Covenant, by all the bleffings and curfes which would undoubtedly follow the keepers or breakers of it. Yet with a promife of pardon and deliverance, if at any time having broken it, they fhall repent them of their fin; and tells them further, that God had therefore thus declared his will unto them, to the end that none hereafter offending, fhall pretend ignorance. Mofes having written this law, delivers it to the XXXI. Priefts, the fons of Levi, and the elders of the People, to be kept; the fame day alfo he writes his XXXII. moft excellent fong, and teaches the fame to the children of Ifrael to be fung; and having finished the book of the law, he takes order to have it laid up in the fide of the ark.

Mofes now drawing near to his end, bleffeth e- XXXIII. very Tribe in particular, by way of prophesie, save only the Tribe of Simeon."

In the twelfth month of this year, he goes up XXXIV. to mount Nebo, and from thence beholds the land of promife, and there dieth, aged 120 years: the body of Mofes God tranflates out of the place where he died, into a valley of the land of Moab, over against Beth-peor, and there burieth it, nor doth any man know the place where he laid it unto this day. The Ifraelites mourn for him 30 days. Here ends the Pentateuch, or five Books of Mofes, containing the hiftory of 2552 years and a half, from the beginning of the world; and the book of Joshua begins with the 41 year after the departure of the children of Ifrael out of Egypt.

Joshua being confirmed in his government by Joshua II. God, fends forth fpies from Shittim to the city of Jericho; who being harbour'd by Rahab, are privily fent away, when fearch is made for them.

Upon the 10th day of the first month (April 30) to wit, the fame day that the Pafchal Lamb was to be chofen out of the flock, the Ifraelites under the conduct of Joshua, a type of Jefus Chrift, go up out of the river Jordan, into the promised land of Canaan, a type of a more heavenly Country. They pafs through the river on dry ground, the waters being for that prefent divided; for a memorial of which miraculous paffage, Joshua fets up 12 other stones in the very channel of Jordan, and taking 12 other ftones out of the midft thereof, fets them up at Gilgal, the place where they next

Adoni-zedek King of Jerufalem, with the Kings of Hebron, Jarmuth, Lochib, and Eglon, hearing that Gibeon is fallen off from them, joyn their forces together, and befiege it; but Joshua raiseth the fiege, purfueth thofe five Kings, and fmiteth them as far as Azekah, the Lord in the mean while killing more with hailftones from heaven, than the Ifraelites with their fwords. Joshua commands the Sun to ftand ftill over Gibeon, and the Moon over the valley of Ajalon, by the space almoft of one whole day, until the Ifraelites are fully avenged of their enemies. The five Kings hide themselves in a cave at Makkedah, from whence they are brought forth, fcornfully used, and hang'd.

From the Autumn of this year, wherein, after the failing of manna, they began to till the ground, the rife of the fabbatical years is to be taken. Joshua now grown old, is commanded by God to divide all the land on the weft of Jordan, among the nine tribes remaining, and the other half-tribe of Manaffeh. The Lord and his facrifices are the inheritance of Levi.

The reft of the Kings with whom Joshua had waged war for fix years, refolve to fet upon him with united forces; but Joshua comes upon them unawares, lays them, and poffeffeth their Countries.

Joshua now roots out those Giants, the Anakims, with their cities, out of the hill Countries, out of Hebron, Debir, and Anab, and generally out of all the mountains of Judah and all Ifrael. And having gotten the whole land into his hands, he divides

among the children of Ifrael, according to their Tribes; and the land refted from war.

After the decease of Joshua, and the Elders who Judges outlived him, and who remembred the wonders which God had wrought for Ifrael, there fucceeds generation of men which forget God, and mingle themfelves with the Canaanites by marriage, and III. 6, 7, 8. whip their idols. In this time of Anarchy and Confufion, when every man did that which feem'd right in his own eyes, all thofe diforders were comnitted which are reported in the five laft Chapters of the Book of Judges; to wit, the idolatry of Micah, and the children of Dan; the war of the Benjamites, and the cause thereof. God being

Othniel dying, the Ifraelites fall again to fin against God, and are given over into the hands of Eglon King of Moab, who joining with the Ammonites and the Amalekites, overthrows the Ifraelites, and takes Jericho; and this second oppreffion continueth 18 years.

Ehud the fon of Gera is raifed up by God to be an avenger of his people; for feigning a meffage to Eglon, he runs him into the belly with his dagger; then getting away, he gathers all Ifrael into a body on mount Ephraim, and flays 10000 of the most valiant Men of Moab; and the land refteth 40 years after the former rest obtain'd by Othniel.

After him Shamgar, the fon of Anath flayeth 600 Philistines with an ox-goad, and he also avengeth Ifrael.

The Ifraelites after the death of Ehud, return- IV. 1, 2, 3. ing to their old fin, are given up by God into the hands of Jabin king of Čanaan; and this thraldom of theirs continueth 20 years.

Deborah, the wife of Lapidoth a prophetess, who at this time judgeth Ifrael in mount Ephraim, and Barak of the Tribe of Naphtali, being made captain of the hoft of Ifrael, in fight of Megiddo overcometh Sifera captain of Jabins army, whom Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite afterwards kills in her own tent. For a memorial of which victory, Deborah compofeth a fong; and the land refteth 40 V. 31. years after the former reft obtained by Ehud.

The Ifraelites finning again, are delivered into the hands of the Midianites; which fourth thraldom lafteth seven years. Hereupon they cry unto God for help, and are reproved by a Prophet. Then Gideon the fon of Manaffes is by an Angel from God fent to deliver them. He firft overturns the Altar of Baal, and burns his grove, and is called Jerubbaal. He out of 32000 men which came unto him, chooseth only (God fo commanding) 300; but with them he puts to flight all the host of the Midianites, whom the Ephraimites afterwards purfue and flay their Princes, Oreb ond Zeeb. Gideon having pacified the Ephraimites, who complain that they were not called to the battle at firft, paffeth the river Jordan, and defeats the remainder of the Midianitifh army; he chaftifeth alfo the men of Succoth and Penuel, who had refused him victuals in his journey; and flays the two Kings of the Moabites, Zebah and Zaĺmunna. After which great victories, the Ifraelites offering to fettle the kingdom upon him and his pofterity, he refufetk it; but receiving their golden ear-rings, he makes thereof an Ephod, which afterwards proves an occafion of Idolatry. The Midianites being thus vanquifh'd, the land enjoys reft 40 years, after the former reft reftored to them by Deborah and Barak.

Gideon dieth, and the Ifraelites falling back again to Idolatry, worship Baal-berith for their God."

Abimelech the fon of Gideon (begotten upon his Concubine) purpofing to get to himfelf the kingdom which his father had refufed, flayeth 70 of his brothers all upon one ftone, and having by the 1235. help of the Shechemites, got to be made king. Jotham the youngeft fon of Gideon, who only efpaced Abimelechs fury, from the top of the mount Gerizim, expoftulates with them the wrong they had done to his fathers houfe; and by way of a parable, foretels their ruin; which done, he flies and dwells quietly in Beerith.
