She crieth at the gates<\/B><\/I>] This might be well applied to the preaching of Jesus Christ and his apostles, and their faithful successors in the Christian ministry. He went to the temple<\/I>, and proclaimed the righteousness of the Most High: he did the same in the synagogues<\/I>, on the mountains<\/I>, by the sea-side<\/I>, in the villages<\/I>, in the streets<\/I> of the cities<\/I>, and in private houses.<\/I> His disciples followed his track: in the same way<\/I>, and in the same<\/I> spirit<\/I>, they proclaimed the unsearchable riches of Christ. God’s wisdom<\/I> in the hearts of his true ministers directs them to go and to seek sinners. There are, it is true, temples, synagogues, churches, chapels, c. but hundreds of thousands never frequent them, and therefore do not hear the voice of truth: wisdom<\/I>, therefore, must go to them<\/I>, if she wishes them to receive her instructions. Hence the zealous ministers of Christ go still to the highways<\/I> and hedges<\/I>, to the mountains<\/I> and plains<\/I>, to the ships<\/I> and the cottages<\/I>, to persuade sinners to turn from the error of their ways, and accept that redemption which was procured by the sacrificial offering of Jesus Christ.<\/P> <\/p>\n At the gates; <\/B>the places of judgment, and of the confluence of people. At the entry of the city, to invite passengers at their first coming, and to conduct them to her house. <\/P> At the coming in at the doors, <\/B>to wit, of her house, as the harlot stood at her door to invite lovers: <\/P> <\/p>\n She crieth at the gates<\/strong>,…. Of the temple, or of the city, where the courts of judicature were, and persons met on civil accounts; and where people were continually passing and repassing;<\/p>\n at the entry of the city<\/strong>; meeting those that came out of the country to the city upon trade and business;<\/p>\n at the coming in at the doors<\/strong>; of the temple, or city, or private houses; all these expressions denote the publicness of the Gospel ministry, both by Christ himself, who spake openly to the world, always taught in the synagogues and temple, and in secret said nothing; and who ordered his disciples to preach what they heard and received from him upon the house tops, Joh 18:20<\/span>; so did the Apostle Paul,<\/p>\n Ac 20:20<\/span>.<\/p>\n Pro 8:3 She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.<\/p>\n Ver. 3. At the entry of the city.<\/strong> ] Heb., At the mouth; for as words go out of the mouth, so do men out of the city; only men go and come at their pleasure. Sed volat emissum semel irrevocabile verbum,<\/em> a<\/em> – A word once uttered cannot be recalled. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n At the coming in at the doors.<\/strong> ] Everywhere Christ offereth himself; hence ariseth this phrase, “My salvation is gone forth”; but to little purpose, through men’s singular perverseness. Indeed if the Lord would set up a pulpit at the ale house door, they would hear more often; but since he doth not, they will run to hell as fast as they can; and if God cannot catch them, they care not, they will not return. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n a<\/em> Rod.
