To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The reason seems to be, they feared that trouble and war would arise by tnis appearing, and they might possibly foresee much in the way to the change, and therefore would rather have chosen to lie still under the burden of the Ro^ man power. There is a natural prejudice in all against the kingdom of Christ, that it brings disturbance and disquiet with it, and therefore men would rather sleep in their chains than hear of a deliverance by him. Thus, the Jews in Egypt appear to have been prejudice...d against the message of their going forth, which Moses brought them. Thus, a carnal heart would comply with its bondage, rather than be at any pains in the remove from it Obs. 3. Was the birth of Christ subject to accompanying trouble ? Thus it is m the aonl, a tumult as it were, of Herod and the Jexrs. They that are without, viz., carnal friends, all in a rage at it : •* What ! turn a melancholy, precise fool, go mad," &c. And within, like the tumultuous multitude, all the lusts of the heart are clamoring for their in- terest, noising to it, that it will suffer much in this change, that all wonted delights will be cQt off, that there will arise much war and trou- ble by this new kingdom ; besides many oth- er doubts and fears that arise in this matter.
