Iealous]
;;One grieved with suspicion of dishonesty in the married yoke-fellow, with desire of revenge. Thus are men jealous, and thus also is God said to be jealous, when the marriage between him and his Church is violated and broken. Deut. 5. 9. For I the Lord thy God am a jealous God? that is, so grieved with Idolatry, that I study to revenge it.

Here jealous is taken in evil part, by a Metaphor or speech borrowed from Wooers, who can abide no corrivals or companions in their love.
;;3. One which loveth others truely, not for lucre and glory to himself, but sor the benefit of the persons loved. 2 Cor. 11. 2. I am jealous over you. Thus Paul, and all godly Ministers are jealous over their flock: here jealous is taken in good part.

Iehovah]
;;An eternall self-being, one that hath his ess nce of himself, from everlasting: and is the cause of existence or being to all things and …, which are of him, by him, and for him. Exod. 6. 3. … by my name …, was I not known to them. Act. 17. 28. Rom. 11. v. last. The eternall God … his being of himself, and gave being to all creatures, promises and works. This word ( … ) is … to God the Son, and God the …, This is one of Gods chiefest …: the force of it is opened, Rev. 1. 4, 8. he giveth being to his … and ….
This word foreign cometh of foreign, he was, and is the proper name of the only … God, Exod. 15. 3. Psal. 83. 18. …. 42. 8. & 48. 2. Amos 5. 8. & 9. 6. which is tearmed his memoriall, Exod. 3. 15. Hos. 12. 5.
It signifieth,
1. That God hath his essence and existence of himself, Isa. 42. 35, 36, 38.
2. That God giveth essence and existence unto all created things, Amos 5. 8.
3. That God is true in his promises and threatnings, and maketh them really to be in their time, Exod. 6. 2, 3, 6, 8, 29. Ezek. 6. 13. & 7. 27. & 11. 10, 12. & 14. 7, 8. It consists of four letters, foreign, as for the most part it doth in all Languages. Thus the Persians name is foreign; the …, Alla; the Assyrians, Adad, the Aegyptians, foreign or foreign; the Grecians, foreign; the Latines, Deus; the French, Dieu; the Spaniards, Dios; the Italians, Idio; the Germans, English, and Scots, Gott.
Hereof some yield this reason, for that the number of four is a perfect number, and so hereby the perfection of God is noted.
Others, that God is he who created all things consisting of four elements.
…. Biblioth. Paraphrastically it is thus rendred, The … God said unto Moses, Say unto them, I who have been, and I the same now, and I the same to be, &c. or, I who am, and am to be, hath sent me … you. Hence David, The Lord reigneth, (there's the time present) Psal. 97. 1. The Lord King for ever and ever, Psal. 10. 16. (there's the time past) The Lord shall reign for ever, (there's the time to come) Psal. 146. 10. It implyes, that he is first without beginning, and the last without end.
This the ancient Hebrews had in such reverence that they abstained from pronouncing it. It was by them styled, The great name, the glorious name, the appropriated name, the name separated or unfolded, &c. And instead thereof they read foreign, ….
The Septuagint render it by foreign; the Christian Church by Lord. Buxtorf. Lexic. in foreign. It differeth from Adonai, Lord; which is Gods name of his sustentation and dominion, whereas Jehovah is his name of existing and being; to which agreeth that name, Ehieh, I am, (or will be) Exod. 3. 14. and Jehovih, Gen. 15. 2. and Jah, Exod. 15. 2. How beit the Greek version turneth Jehovah Lord, as well as Adonai: and the New Testament often followeth the same; as, The Lord said to my Lord, Mat. 22. 44. for that which is in Hebrew, Jehovah said unto my Lord, Psal. 110. 1. Many times they use God instead of this name Jehovah, as 2 Sam. 7. 3. comp. with 1 Chr. 17. 2. 2 King. 11. 10. comp. with 2 Chr. 23. 9. Deut. 4. 3. comp. with Matt. 4. 4. Gen. 15. 6. comp. with Rom. 4. 13. Isa. 8. 18. comp. with Heb. 2. 13. Aynsworth on Gen. 2. 4.
This name denoting his giving of being unto (that is, the performance of) his word and promises; in this respect it is said, Exod. 6. 3. By my name Jehovah was I not known unto them: for they were sustained by faith in Gods Almighty power, without receiving the thing promised, Act. 7. 5. Heb. 11. 9, 10. but now their children should receive the …, and so have full knowledge and experience of Gods power and goodnesse, and of the … of that his name Jehovah, which therefore they sung to his praise, upon their full deliverance from the Aegyptians, Exod. 15. 3. So upon performance of further promises or judgements, he saith, They shall know him to be Jehovah, Isa. 49. 23. & 52. 6. & 60. 16. Ezek. 28. 22, 23, 24, 26. Aynsworth on Exod. 6. 3.
The force of this name the Holy Ghost openeth by, He that is, that was, and will be, or is to come, Rev. 1. 4, 8. & 4. 8. & 11. 17. & 16. 5. And the form of the Hebrew name implyeth so much, Je being a sign of the time to come, … he will be; Ho of the time …, Hoveh he that is; and Vah of the time past, … he was.
Of this the Gentiles named the greatest god, Jove, and Jupiter, that is, Jah pater, of the shorter name Jah, …, …. 68. 5. And Varro (the learnedest of the Romans) thought Jove to be the God of the Jews. Aynsworth … Psal. 83. 19.
… …]
;;signifieth, the Lord will see, or …, to note the special providence of God in …: also, here the Scripture speaketh figuratively (as it … to doe in all Sacramentall things) because it was a sign of Gods providence: so Altar is called Jehovah Nissi, Exod. 17. 15. and Jerusalem is called Jehovah Shamma.
