Why Truth to Iacob, and Mercy to Abraham? We must note, the promise after a sort began in Abraham (therefore he is call'd the Father of the Faithfull ) and when God makes a promise, it is onely out of Mercie; but the Promise was continued unto • … a cob, who being Abrahams seede was an hei• … e of the Promise, and so the inheritance which was out of mercy given unto Abraham, did out of Truth and fidelitie descend unto Iacob, the seede of Abraham; and therefore we shall finde Covenant, Mercy, and Oath ioyned together in the Scripture, to note unto us both the ground of making the Covenant, Mercy ▪ and the ground of performing the Covenant made, the Truth and Fidelity of God. |
