Scribe:Hypocrite
Intro
What is an hypocrite? An hypocrite is someone that has forgotten God.
Job CHAP. VIII.
1 Bildad sheweth Gods iustice, in dealing with men according to their workes. 8 He alledgeth antiquitie to proue the certaine destruction of the Hypocrite. 20 Hee applieth Gods iust dealing to Iob.
8 For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thy selfe to the search of their fathers.
9 (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our dayes vpon earth are a shadow.)
10 Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, & vtter words out of their heart?
11 Can the rush growe vp without myre? can the flag growe without water?
12 Whilest it is yet in his greennesse, and not cut downe, it withereth before any other herbe.
13 So are the paths of all that forget God, and the hypocrites hope shall perish:
14 Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spiders web.
15 He shall leane vpon his house, but it shall not stand: he shal hold it fast, but it shall not endure.
16 He is greene before the sunne, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.
17 His roots are wrapped about the heape, and seeth the place of stones.
18 If he destroy him from his place, then it shal denie him, saying, I haue not seene thee.
19 Beholde, this is the ioy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.
Jesus also denounceth eight woes against the pharisees in Mt23 calling them hypocrites.
