1 Kings 19

^{1 a} To wit, Baal.

^{2 b} Thogh the wicked rage against Gods children, yet he holdeth them backe that they can not execute their malice.

^{3 /} Or, whether his minde led him.

^{4 c} So hard a thing it is to bridel our impacience in affliction that the saints colde not ouercome the same.

^{5 !} Eliiah fleing from Jezebel is nourished by the Angel of God.

^{7 d} He declareth that except God had nourished him miraculously, it had not bene possible for him to haue gone this journey.

^{10 e} He complaineth, that the more zealous that he shewed him self to mainteine Gods glorie, the more cruelly was he persecuted.

^{11 f} For the nature of man is not able to come nere vnto God, if he shoulde appeare in his strength & ful majestie, & therefore of his mercie he submitteth him self to our capacitie.

^{14 g} We oght not to depend on the multitude in mainteining Gods glorie, but because our duetie so requireth, we oght to do it.

^{15 /} Or, Syria.

^{15 !} He is commanded to anoint Hazael, Jehu, and Elisha.

^{18 h} He declareth that wicked dissemblers and idolaters are not his.

^{20 i} Thogh this natural affection is not to be contemned, yet it oght not to moue vs when God calleth vs to serue him.

^{21 k} He wolde not stay til wood was broght, so freat was his desire to followe his vocation.
