Ps. cxxx. 1. Ps. liv. 13.GREATNESS, ambulare in magnis, to exercise one’s self in great matters. Magna loqui, to speak with haughtiness, Jer. l. 11.with insolence, with menacing. From the Least to the Greatest: a customary way of speaking in our language; thy servant 1 Sam. xxii. 15. Isa. ix. 9. Exod. xv. 16.knew not any thing of the affair, neither little nor great: he had not the least knowledge of it.
Greatness of heart, magnitudo cordis, is taken for pride. Greatness of the arm, for strength, severity. The voice of God’s Greatness, is the Thunder. The Seat of Greatness, is the Throne of God’s Majesty. The Greatness of God denotes his Glory, his Power, his Majesty, his wondrous Works.
