amongst the Gods] Or, mightie ones. So the Scripture sometimes calleth the mightie men of the world, especially Judges and Magistrates, as Exodus 22:28. glorious in holinesse] Holinesse is the glory of the Creator, therefore the Seraphims glorifie him, in trebling the acclamation of holinesse, Isaiah 6:3. And where we are taught to pray for the glorifying of his Name, we must say, hallowed be thy Name; that is, let it be declared, and beleeved to be holy: and the Apostle linketh holinesse and honour together, 1 Thessalonians 4:4. The more unreasonable then is their irreligion, who make holinesse the marke of their malignant contumelies, and doe what they can to turne the greatest glory into shame. fearefull in praises] Who ought for his great and dreadfull execution of judgement to be praised, and when we praise him we may feare, because we cannot sufficiently praise him: yea so farre should we be from presuming on God for any of his acts and attributes, that all of them, even his mercy should affect us with an awfull feare, and religious reverence; for this, see Psalms 2:11. Isaiah 6:5. Jeremiah 33:9. Psalms 130:4.
