This edition is based on the text of The Reward of Religion
published in 1613. The once popular Puritan commentary on the book
of Ruth went through four printings in a very short time (1596,
1597, 1601 and 1613). "very choice old work. Attersoll in his
rhyming preface says of it- "Go little Book, display thy golden
title, (And yet not little though thou little be); Little for price
and yet in price not little, Thine was the Pain, the gain is ours I
see: (Although our gain thou deem'st no pain to thee). If then, O
reader, little pain thou take, Thou greatest gain with smallest
pain shall make." Charles Spurgeon, Commenting and Commentaries
"Consider therefore, my beloved, what is the hope of our profession
whereunto we are called, the dignity of our condition wherein we
stand, and the reward of our Religion prepared for our souls. Call
to mind the examples of the Fathers, the promises of the Gospel,
the oath of the Lord himself, the price of our redemption, and the
place of our salvation: you shall find nothing wanting in Religion,
that might increase your blessedness. Therefore how happy are the
ears that hear the things which we hear, the eyes that see the
things which we see, the hands that handle the things which we
touch, nay the souls that are assured of the favor of God. If all
the world would go about to set down the felicity of the godly, and
the dignity of the chosen, they could never achieve it: no, not
that which they enjoy in this life, for their thoughts are
heavenly, their hearts the throne of the holy Ghost, their hands
feel the Lord of glory, their tongues talk of his praise, their
feet stand in his Temple, their words are acceptable before him,
their prayers like sweet savors of incense, their worship like
evening sacrifices, their eyes behold his glory, their ears hear
his wisdom, and their names are written in the kingdom of heaven."
