be_v likewise_o make_v of_o cainan_n §_o 4._o the_o word_n of_o moses_n concern_v the_o thara_n whether_o the_o birth_n of_o abraham_n be_v coincident_a with_o the_o 70th_o year_n of_o thara_n

chronologer_n conclude_v that_o abraham_n be_v not_o above_o 70_o year_n young_a than_o his_o father_n thara_n 1._o because_o moses_n have_v be_v so_o exact_a in_o mention_v the_o 75th_o year_n of_o the_o age_n of_o abraham_n as_o also_o the_o 86th_o 16._o 86th_o gen._n 16._o v._n 16._o and_o the_o 24._o the_o gen._n 12._o 4._o and_o 17._o v._o 24._o 99th_o it_o seem_v very_o improbable_a he_o shall_v have_v neglect_v that_o of_o his_o nativity_n 2._o because_o in_o the_o catalogue_n of_o the_o child_n of_o thara_n he_o give_v the_o preference_n to_o abraham_n in_o 1_o chron._n 1._o v._o 28._o israel_n be_v put_v before_o ishmael_n his_o elder_a brother_n but_o what_o wonder_n if_o he_o have_v the_o preference_n give_v he_o before_o the_o son_n of_o his_o father_n maid_n otherwise_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o the_o scripture_n always_o relate_v the_o genealogy_n of_o those_o bear_v in_o wedlock_n in_o the_o same_o order_n as_o they_o be_v bear_v this_o be_v manifest_a in_o the_o child_n of_o rachel_n who_o though_o much_o belove_v by_o their_o father_n yet_o be_v insert_v according_a to_o the_o time_n of_o their_o nativity_n and_o even_o he_o who_o have_v sell_v the_o prerogative_n of_o his_o birthright_n yet_o be_v mention_v as_o the_o elder_a in_o the_o sacred_a history_n 3._o because_o abraham_n seem_v to_o be_v startle_v at_o the_o promise_n make_v he_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o example_n without_o a_o parallel_n to_o be_v bless_v with_o a_o son_n when_o he_o be_v 100_o year_n old_a 17._o old_a gen._n 17._o v._n 17._o but_o it_o be_v not_o probable_a

concern_v the_o time_n of_o the_o departure_n of_o abraham_n out_o of_o haran_n it_o be_v say_v by_o moses_n that_o 4._o that_o gen._n 12._o v._n 4._o abraham_n be_v 75_o year_n old_a when_o he_o

if_o 70_o year_n of_o thara_n when_o he_o beget_v abraham_n be_v add_v to_o 75_o the_o age_n of_o abraham_n when_o he_o remove_v out_o of_o haran_n the_o product_n will_v be_v 145_o year_n whereas_o ●2_n whereas_o gen._n 11._o v._o ●2_n moses_n say_v of_o thara_n that_o his_o day_n be_v 205_o year_n and_o that_o he_o die_v in_o haran_n which_o have_v move_v st._n hierom_n and_o scaliger_n to_o
