Hail]

An impression gendred in the air, of a cold and moyst vapour. The neerer the earth it is engendred, the thicker, the colder, the sharper it is, and falleth most commonly in the day time. That which is engendred in the higher clouds, through the heat of the air dissolveth, and so is lesser. It is usually in the Summer, for that the heat being then in the air, is beat back into the innermost parts of the cloud, where it causeth hail. Sometimes the dew falling on the earth, through the cold North-wind being drawn together, becomes as hail. Herewith God punished Aegypt, Exod. 9. 23, 24. their vines and cattle, Psal. 78. 47, 48. Slew his peoples enemies, Josh. 10. 11. Hence Hail-stones, by whom in Ezek. 13. 11. the Chaldeans are meant.

Hail]

Isa. 32. 19. When it shall hail, coming down on the Forrest. Or (as some) And it, or he, shall hail with hail the forrest. Whereof the meaning may be this, That God will preserve the fruits of the earth for them, that they shall not with storm and tempest be spoyled, and will therefore in his providence, so dispose occurrents of that kinde, that when storms come they shall light on the wilde and waste forrest, where it can do little hurt, and not on their corngrounds, or vineyards, or the like, where it might do mischief, as Psal. 78. 47. & 105. 32, 33. See Exod. 9. 22. — 26. Annot.

Hail-masier]

foreign. It was an usual form of salutation, which the Hebrews expressed by foreign, (peace be unto thee) Judg. 6. 23. Peace be with thee, Judg. 19. 20. The Gr. here translated to the letter, signifieth Rejoyce, which the Latines interpret Salve, and we say, God save you. Annot.

Hail-stones]

Isa. 30. 30. Heb. stone of hail, stone for stones, as Hab. 2. 11. See Josh. 10. 11. Psal. 18. 12. ch. 28. 2. Thus also it is by some deemed, that God disturbed the Aegyptians at the Red sea, with a storm of the like condition with that here described, Exod. 14. 14. Annot.

Hail and … are instruments of Gods war and punishments. Aynsw. on Psal. 18. 12.

Hair]

;;Hair, white or black, none can make (besides God, Mat. 5. 36.) 1. Not materially, for substance. 2. Nor formally, for colour. For those that colour things do not make the colours themselves, but do only take, extract, temper, and apply those which God hath already made, from one substance to another.;;

It's put for the smallest thing under Gods providence and care, Mat. 10. 30. Old age, gray hairs, Gen. 44. 29. The least mark, Judg. 20. 16. The least hurt, 1 Sam. 14. 45. Dan. 3. 27. Luk. 21. 18.

Hair]

;;The company of the faithful, Can. 4. 1. Thine Hair is like the flock of Goats.

As by the hair the people of Israel was signified, Ezek. 5. 1, 2, 12. This is the ornament and covering of the head, proceeding from moisture and strength of nature, likened here to the hair of a flock of Goats, fed in a fat pasture, as on Mount Gilead, whose hair is long, rank, and smooth, figuring the thoughts, purposes, divices, &c. which are ordered and composed aright according unto God, Ayns.

The Church is here minded of her duty, not to have a bald glabrous soul, but to abound in holy thoughts and contemplations, which will not be (like Absalons) our ruine, but our great praise and commendation. Annot.

Hair though it hang long upon the head, yet it may in time either fal off of it self, or be cut off, so were the common Christians in Christs time, as it were hair for multitude, hanging on Christ the head, or falling many of them from him; either of themselves, Joh. 6. 66. or cut off by the practises of the Priests, Matth. 27. 20. Joh. 12. 42, 43. whence it was that Jesus durst not commit himself to them, Joh. 2. 23. 25. Cotton.

As from the heat the hairs have what ever life or vigour is in them, so all they who by faith cleave unto Christ the head of the Church, do from him their head, derive all their vigour and spiritual nourishment. And as Mount Gilead is beautified by the multitude of Goats feeding thereon, which were it not for them would seem bald: so is the Church by the faithful, feeding on Christ. Titelman.

Dr. Hall, and S. Finch, understand hereby the Churches gracious profession, and all her appendances and ornaments of expedient ceremonies.

Mount Gilead was fruitful with wholesome pasture, and a goodly sight it was to behold a flock of Goats spread all abroad, and feeding thereupon, where the Lords people are assembled, and are sed with the heavenly food, it is in his eyes a goodly and a comely thing. Giffard.

The Hair of thine head like purple]

Cant. 7. 5. This her hair like purple, denoteth her cogitations and purposes to be holy, heavenly and as dyed in the bloud of Christ. In Can. 4. 1. the Spouses hair was likened to a flock of Goats. That description differing from this, seemeth to imply a variety of estate; for Gods people are not always of a like condition in this world, though ever gloryous in his eyes. Aynsw.

The most spiritual sense is that which expounds all of the higher and lower offices, and Governours of the Church (the Original dallath properly signifieth tendernesse, or tenuity. Aynsw. (Which under Christ are as lofty stout heads, and as purple and precious hair unto her, both for defence and ornament; for as Carmel signifies dignity, and stability: so doth purple also, being double died and of a great estimation. Annot.

Some understaud here by the ceremonies by her used, (as it were the ornaments of her head, both the hair-lace and the borders, and all her attire) being for comlinesse and good order of special account, and a great grace unto her, no lesse then … and purple. Hall, Finch.

And they had hair, as the hair of women, Rev. 9. 8. Their doctrine hath many enticements to allure men to the liking of it, and to provoke unto spirituall fornication. Leighs Annot.

This noteth their effeminateness, their lust, and wontonness in themselves, and withall their carnal allurements to spiritual idolatry, as women do by their hair entice to corporal filthiness. ….

This figureth their hypocrisie, covering abominable evils, under the shadow of fained Sanctity. Cowper.

His head and his heirs were white like wool, Revel. 1. 14. This signifieth Christs eternity, as it doth God the Fathers. Dan. 7. 9. Annot.

Hairy]

Spoken of Esau, Gen. 25. 25. said to be all over like an hairy garment, Heb. all of him like a mantle of hair, which the Greek translateth like a rough hide. This also signified his fierce, strong, and crafty nature. For hair is a sign of natural strength, and nature being corrupted, hairiness denoteth the power of corruption; therefore when … were purified, all their hair was to be shaven off, Lev. 14. 8. Aynsw. Psal. 68. 21. And the hairy scalp, Heb. the crown (or scalp) of hair, meaning open and inevitable judgement on the chiefest and most fierce enemies. Idem.

Half an hour]

;;A very short space of time, wherein the Church should enjoy an happy rest, after the open enemies thereof were bridled, and Constantine the Great arose cut of the East. Rev. 8. 1. There was silence in heaven about half an hour.

This imports the admiration and reverence, whereby the heavenly creatures attended and expected that which was to be revealed by the seventh seal. And it is especially written to teach us, how we should be disposed with reverence to hear, as often as the Lord offers himself willing to teach us, then we should put silence to our own will, to our cogitations and affections, otherwise we cannot hear what the Spirit saith. Cowper.

Also to pray; which was done with this gesture of holding up the hands or palms towards heaven, as looking up to God with trust to receive a blessing, Psal. 63. 4. So Job 11. 13. Lam. 2. 19. & 3. 40. Psal. 141. 1. It is also called spreading out of the hand, Psal. 44. 20. & 88. 9. Stretching out, Also, to Swear; also, to Threaten, Isa. 20. 32.

Lifting up holy hands, 1 Tim. 2. 8. The ceremony of Washing was among the Jews constantly used before Prayers, and so among the Mahometanes. This significant rite the Apostle here applyeth to the thing signified by cleannesse of the heart and actions, and nakes that necessary to the offering up any acceptable service to God. Dr. Hamm. Annot. b.

Lay hands suddenly on no mam, 1 Tim. 5. 22. That laying on hands is a ceremony of prayer, or benediction, is ordinarily known in the Old Testament, used first by the Father to the Children, in bestowing the blessing upon them, and with that succession to some part of the estate, Gen. 48. 14, 15. And from thence it was among them accommodated to the communicating of power to others, as Assistants, or deriving it to them as Successors. So when … assumed the Seventy to assist him, Numb. 11. 17. it was done (saith … ) by his laying hands upon them. And when he left the world, and constituted Joshua his Successour, God appointed him to lay his hands upon him, Numb. 27. 18. So …. 34. 9. From these three uses of the ceremony, in prayer, in … benediction, in createing of officers, three sorts of things there are in the New Testament, to which it is principally accommodated.

1. In prayer it is used either in curing diseases, the corporall hands, Luk. 13. 16. Act. 19. 17. & 28. 8. as it was foretold, Mar. 16. 18. or pardoning sins, the spirituall hands, Heb. 62. Where as the Baptismes are those used among the … and Christians, for the admission of Proselytes; so the imposition of hands, doth probably denote the restoring of penitents that were lapst after Baptisme. From that of paternall enediction, is that of laying on hands in blessing of infants, Mar. 10. 16. By that means signifying them to be fit to be received into the Church by Baptism, as those that have title to this Kingdom of heaven, the Church here, and through the same mercy of God in Christ, heaven hereafter.

2. That of confirming those of full age, that had formerly been baptized. Such that of the Ephesian disciples seem to be, Act. 19. 5, 6. to which in those times many extraordinary gifts were consequent, speaking with …, &c. as had formerly falln out, Act. 10. 44.

3. From that in creating Successors or assistants in powercame the use of imposition of hands in O …, whether of Bishops or Deacons, Act. 6. 6. & 8. 17. & 13. 3. 1 Tim. 4. 15. & 2 Tim. 1. 6. Dr. Ham. Annot. f.

Hand-writing]

;;The Moral Law of God, which because it is not fulfilled of us, accuseth us, and sheweth us to be guilty, as if our own hand-writing were brought against us. Col. 2. 14. He hath taken away the hand-writing. Others think, … by Hand-writing is meant the Ceremonial Law, consisting in Rites, Ceremonies, Sacrifices, and Oblations; the innocent beasts which were slain in Sacrifices, and all other oblations for sin, witnessing (as a Hand-writing) how guilty and worthy we were to die through desert of sin. This is the better exposition; because it is tearmed, the Hand-writing of Rites or Ordinances. In Col. 2. 14. & Eph. 2. 17. it is called, the Law of the Commandements, which stands in Rites and Ceremonies. A Metaphor.

On these two commandements hang all the Law and the Prophets, Mat. 22, 40. or conspire; i. e. the whole Old Testament conspires with these, these are the summe of all that is said there. But if it be read hang, then the meaning will be, that all commanded in the Jewish received Scripture, depends upon one of these two, hangs on one of these great pegs, i. e. in the last result, reducible to one of these heads. Dr. Ham. Annot. f.

There were several other hangings made for the service of the Tabernacle. Hereby in Est. 1. 6. … is meant. 2. King. 23. 7. Where the women wove hangings for the grove, …. houses, or curtains, whereby they might keep themselves from the sight of others. Idolatry and all manner of filthyness use to go together.

Contemn not his voice, but believe it, cleave fast and be obedient unto it, Zech. 7. 11, 12. Act. 7. 51. where resisting is opposed unto it. Annot.

Hardentng]

;;The whole executing of Gods eternall purpose, for the just destruction of the reprobate. Rom. 9. 19. … he will he hardeneth.

;;Note. This must not be so taken, as though God did begin to harden mans heart which was not infected before: for what is hardnesse else then resistance of Gods commandement? which who so thinks to be the work of God, because of this saying (He hardeneth whom he will) let him behold the first beginning of mans corruption, and mark well the Commandement of God; the disobedience whereof, made the heart to offend; and then let him truly confesse, that whatsoever punishment befalleth him, sithence the first corruption, he suffereth it righteously and deservedly. For God is said to harden his heart whom he doth not mollifie. So, he is said to reject him, whom he doth not call, and to blinde them whom he doth not enlighten. Thus far August, de Praedectinat. & Gratia, cap. 4.

;;Yet note further, that after this withdrawing of Grace, this also followeth thereupon, that God doth rightly minister occasions of sin in the wicked and reprohate, and marvellously inclineth the hearts of men, not onelyonly to good, but also to evill; as the same Aug. affirmeth in his book de lib. Arb. & Gratia cap. It appeareth sufficiently by holy Scripture, as Rom. 1. 2 Thess. &c. that God works in the hearts of men, to bend, incline, and bow their wils whereunto him listeth; either to good according to the riches of his mercy; or, to wickednesse, according to their owne desert; by his judgement sometime manifest, and sometime secret, but alwayes just, for there is no iniquity with God. Therefore, when we read in Scriptures, that men were hardened, &c. let us not doubt but their sinfull deservings were such before, as that they did will deserve the punishment which followed. Yet God is no cause of wickednesse, simply and properly, as one who droppeth sin into the heart (as liquor is poured into a veslel) for men themselves are more then enough the true and natural cause of sin.

;;God is said to harden,;;

;;1. When he doth not mollifie by grace, or grant grace of Conversion. Liptote vel aequipollens.;;

;;2. When he doth withdraw his former grace given, whereby men are mollified; as the sun from wax, as raine from the earth.;;

;;3. When he doth permit in justice, Satan, or the World, or a mans owne selfe, to harden the heart, Rom. 1. 24, 26. 2 Thess. 2. 10.;;

;;4. When he doth discover by way of tryal the wickednesse of mans heart, as the Sun by shining discovers the nature of clay to be hard, but doth not cause it, for then it should also harden wax; or … the stench of a dunghill, but is no cause of it.;;

Hard hearted]

It's eyes are shut when it watcheth, open when it sleepeth. It excelleth, as in seeing, so in hearing; which to signifie, the Aegyptians p̄ictured a Hare. It resteth in the day, goeth abroad in the night; nor feedeth nigh home, but further off; thereby to exercise it self, and to conceal the place of its abode. It never drinketh, but contenteth it self with the dew, and sleepeth much. It's very libidinous, and no lesse sruitful. God … harmlesse beasts to mul tiply in great number, not so the unprofitable and hurtfull. When through idleness it waxeth fat, or when being pursued by the Fox, it lingreth in the way, as not thinking that the Fox, (which now and then on purpose maketh a stand) will pursue it any further, or can overtake it, it becometh an easie prey. So also suffering the Weasell to play with it, when wearyed, it is strangled thereby. That by intercourse it's male and female is affirmed by some, denyed by others. It's very fearfull, and therefore frequenteth solitary places. It's also in its kind subtle; for in the Winter its form is in ploughed grounds, about the approach of Harvest, in vineyards; when the grapes begin to ripen, it removeth thence. Also, in going and returning to its form, it useth many windings and turnings, and shunneth briars and thorns, lest by its hair sticking thereon, it should be …; nor hath the female all her young ones in one plac, lest all might be endangered at one time. When pursued, it hath no safeguard for it selfe, but flight. It's profitable for food, raiment, medicine, delight. If a Hare crosse ones way when in a journey, it's counted ominous. It's not to be wondred at, that such doe not prosper which give credit hereunto.

So of them who violently and furiously rush upon their enemies, as the Chaldeans, who are therefore termed an hasty Nation, Hab. 1. 6.

;;It's spoken of affliction, Jer. 38. 16.

Of the day of calamity, Deut. 32. 35. and of the increase of Children, Isa. 49. 17.

To hate, referred to God]

signifieth,

;;1. Not to love some in his eternal counsell, but to passe by them, and not to choose them. Rom. 9. 13. … have I hated; that is, I have decreed not to love him. This hating hath not foreseen sin, But Gods will for the proper cause of it; yet God recrees none to destruction, but for sin.

;;2. To abhor actually, and to revenge sins already committed. Isa. 1. 13. I hate your solemn feasts. Psal. 45. 8. Thou art a God which hatest wickednesse. God doth not actually hate his creature, but in pegard of sin inherent, … acted and already done.

He that hateth his brother, is a manslayer.

;;2, To detest sin, because it is the breach of Gods Law. Rom. 7. 15. What I hate that do I. Jude 23. Thus the righteous hate even the garment spotted with sin and corruption.

;;3. To love lesse one then another. Luk. 14. 26. And hate not father and mother, wife and children; yea, and his own life, ye cannot be my disciples. Joh. 12. 15. Mat. 10. 39. Gen. 29. 31. Deut. 21. 15. Mat. 6. 24. These are comparative, not simple speeches.

12. To be an enemy unto, Deut, 7. 17. & 19. 4, 6, 11. Unkindly deal with one, Gen. 26. 27. Yea, cruelly. Ezeli. 23. 29. with a resolution to destroy them, Deut. 1. 27. & 9. 28.

To hate with a perfect hatred]

;;Neither to love the vices for the persons sake, nor to hate the persons for the vices sake. Psal. 139. 22. I hate them with a perfect hatred, as if they were mine enemies. Or it may signifie, to hate unfaignedly, and from the heart.

To hate the whore]

;;To hate the Church of Rome degenerate, in execration, even with loathing; to abhor her as a Whore, a Mother of whoredome, which hath bewitched the Kings of the earth with her golden cup, the butchery of Gods Saints, like to Sodom and Aegypt, therefore worthy to be …. Rev. 17. 16. They shall hate the whore.

Hateful]

Tit. 3. 3. It may to good purpose be taken either actively, as it is read; namely, for such as are in such extremity of wickedness, as they are every way abominable creatures in themselves; or else passively, and so may be read hatred, that is, justly execrable and odious unto others, both God and men. Taylor's Expos. Psal. 36. 2. Until his iniquity be sound to be hateful, Heb. to finde his iniquity to hate, marg. Or, which he ought to hate, or which is to be hated, is odious. Aynsw.

Hateful birds]

;;Unclean and evill-favoured Fowls, such as haunt and frequent forsaken and desolate places, being odious to all other fowls for their ravening; such be the Vulture, the Crow, the Raven, the Owle, the Kite, &c.

Hatefully]

Ezek. 23. 29. In, or with hatred.

Haters of God]

;;All wicked disobedient sinners, which by their breaking willingly the Commandements of God, shew they hate God.

Rom. 1. 30. Haters of God.

Hath]

;;The good using those graces which we have. Mat. 13. 12. Whosoever hath, &c.

;;2. A seeming to have. Luk. 8. 8. From him shall he taken that which he … that he hath. Mat. 13. 12. From him shall be taken even that he hath.

Hath]

Whosoever hath, Mat. 12. 12. The word foreign signifies here (as it's plain by the parable) to use, to occupy, to traffick with grace, to take that care of it which belongs to a great treasure. Dr. Ham. Annot. b.

Hawke]

An unclean fowle which was not to be eaten, Lev. 11. 16. Deut. 14. 15. It onelyonly amongst all the … flyeth straight upright, and so cometh down to the ground. Whilest it's able to bring profit and delight to its Owner, it's fed, dieted, lookt to, when disabled, cast off. Its outward bulk is not answerable to its inward courage. When its young ones are able to fly, it gives them no meat, beats them with its beak and thiusts them out of the nest. It must not be kept either too lean, or too fat. Though made …, yet ceaseth it not to be revenous. It feedeth on the flesh, not on the heart of sowles. Bread (which prolongeth the life of other sowls) brings death to it. Having caught a Sparrow (being of a hot temper.) it keepeth the same at its beast all night, whereby it's defended from the cold, and in token of thankfulnesse, in the morning dismisseth it unhurt. It's of quick sight, and very swift, and strong withall. If it misseth its prey, it's so vexed that it returneth not to its Owner. Towards winter it flyeth unto warm places, Job 39. 26. Finding it self (through age and the weight of its feathers) unwieldy, and not well able to fly, the South wind blowing, it warmeth it selfe by the Sun beams, whereby its pores being opened, her old feathers fall off, and new grow in the palce. Its main strength is in the break, beast, and clawes. Between the Hawk and the Hen there's no small difference: the Hen whilest alive, is not regarded, but when killed and made ready: on the contrary, the Hawke when dead is thrown on the dunghil, whilest alive, in high esteem.
