To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And this the wisdom of God did well foresee, and hath set no caveats in the scriptures either to tax men, or fore- warn them from loving others, neither saith God any where, let no man seek out the good of another, but let no man seek his own, and every where in the scriptures he hath set watch words against self good, self-profit, self- seeking, &c. And thus the sense being cleared, I come to the doctrine. Doct 1. AU men are too apt and ready to seek tkemsehes too micchj and to prefer their ou...m matters and causes beyond the due and lawful measure, even to excess and offence against God, yea danger of their own souk. And this is true not only in wicked men which are given over of God to vile lusts, as Absalom in getting favor in his father's court : Jereboam, in settling his kingdom fast in Samaria, Ahab in vehement seeking NabotNs vineyard, but men, otherwise godly, have through frailty been foiled herein, and many thousands which have a shew of godli- ness, are lovers of themselves : David was about to seek himself when he was going to kill NabaU: Asa in putting Hanani in prison : Jomih when he would go to war with Necho, against the counsel of God, and reason ; Pefer when he dissembled about the ceremonies of the law, yea and Pcml complains of all his followers ( Timothy excepted) that they sought their own too inordinately.
