And because the beginning, increase, preservation and success thereof might be only attributed to God, Moses sheweth by the examples of Cain, Ishmael, Esau and others, which were noble in man's judgment, that this Church dependeth not on the estimation and nobility of the world and also by fewness of them, which have at all times worshipped him purely according to his word, that it standeth not in the multitude, but in the poor and despised, in the small flock and little number, that man in his wisdom might be confounded, and the Name of God ever more praised.īible chronology is challenged by a divisive error in all modern Bible translations mistiming the Hebrew sojourn of Exodus 12:40 in Egypt as 430 years, suffering a misconstrued 400 of these in Egyptian slavery, herein exposed as founded on failure of translators to regard the context of Ex. ![]() Thirdly, he assureth us by the examples of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and the rest of the Patriarchs, that his mercies never fail them, whom he chooseth to be his Church, and to profess his Name in earth, but in all their afflictions and persecutions he ever assisteth them, sendeth comfort, and delivereth them.
