In-Text |
The best grieving for the afflictions of Joseph, is first to grieve for the sins of Joseph. Men can never be truly affected with their punishments, till they be rightly apprehensive of their wickedness. And observe the phrase, it is what hath the righteous done? not what hath the righteous suffered? To convince us, the Psalmist had an eye at the malum culpae, as well as the malum paenae; that he wept for the crime committed, as well as for the misery inflicted. In these terms the Scripture expresseth our penitentiall mourning: no man repented him of his wickedness, saying what have I done? Jerem. 8.6. |
