he_o and_o he_o shall_v read_v therein_o all_o the_o day_n of_o his_o life_n that_o he_o may_v learn_v to_o fear_v the_o lord_n his_o god_n to_o keep_v all_o the_o word_n of_o this_o law_n and_o

the_o type_n must_v be_v so_o apply_v to_o the_o antitype_n as_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o antitype_n require_v the_o sum_n of_o the_o matter_n in_o this_o place_n be_v that_o the_o king_n of_o god_n people_n must_v be_v obedient_a to_o god_n will_n particular_o to_o that_o will_v of_o god_n which_o god_n will_v have_v he_o to_o observe_v and_o consequent_o to_o that_o law_n of_o god_n which_o god_n will_v have_v stand_v in_o force_n as_o long_o as_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n be_v in_o force_n so_o long_o the_o king_n over_o god_n people_n must_v observe_v that_o law_n but_o that_o law_n be_v by_o god_n abrogate_a no_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o observe_v it_o much_o less_o be_v the_o king_n of_o god_n people_n bind_v to_o it_o and_o a_o new_a law_n be_v surrogated_a god_n people_n and_o their_o king_n must_v observe_v that_o new_a law_n wherefore_o the_o law_n write_v in_o the_o chapter_n of_o that_o book_n must_v be_v so_o take_v or_o understand_v of_o christ_n as_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n will_v bear_v it_o and_o as_o the_o majesty_n and_o divinity_n of_o christ_n require_v many_o thing_n be_v say_v of_o the_o shadow_n which_o the_o perfection_n of_o the_o body_n do_v reject_v but_o we_o must_v further_o observe_v that_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n in_o this_o psalm_n may_v yet_o be_v further_o extend_v see_v in_o the_o hebrew_n text_n to_o the_o sense_n whereof_o the_o author_n may_v have_v more_o regard_n than_o to_o the_o greek_a translation_n it_o be_v simple_o say_v in_o the_o volume_n of_o the_o book_n i._o of_o the_o law_n and_o although_o according_a to_o the_o greek_a translation_n we_o understand_v that_o chapter_n of_o the_o law_n which_o we_o cite_v in_o deuteronomy_n yet_o that_o very_a chapter_n have_v reference_n to_o the_o whole_a law_n of_o god_n or_o it_o refer_v the_o king_n to_o all_o the_o word_n and_o precept_n of_o the_o law_n which_o the_o king_n of_o god_n people_n be_v to_o exccute_a wherefore_o in_o a_o mystical_a sense_n we_o may_v understand_v all_o those_o thing_n wherein_o christ_n be_v to_o perform_v the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o particular_o those_o that_o belong_v to_o his_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n which_o here_o be_v the_o thing_n in_o hand_n whence_o it_o be_v in_o a_o manner_n yet_o leave_v doubtful_a whether_o christ_n say_v these_o word_n when_o he_o come_v into_o this_o world_n or_o the_o world_n to_o come_v for_o if_o by_o this_o will_n of_o god_n we_o understand_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n strict_o and_o proper_o take_v exclude_v his_o death_n from_o it_o than_o we_o must_v affirm_v that_o christ_n say_v these_o thing_n when_o he_o come_v into_o that_o future_a world_n but_o if_o we_o extend_v the_o sacrifice_n or_o offering_n of_o christ_n more_o large_o and_o include_v his_o death_n the_o necessary_a antecedent_n unto_o it_o as_o in_o this_o place_n it_o seem_v we_o must_v do_v and_o as_o we_o have_v before_o intimate_v that_o we_o may_v not_o set_v aside_o the_o excellent_a and_o proper_a act_n of_o christ_n himself_o pertain_v to_o his_o offering_n and_o sacrifice_n most_o acceptable_a to_o god_n see_v he_o say_v that_o he_o come_v to_o do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o that_o we_o know_v that_o christ_n himself_o have_v also_o his_o part_n herein_o then_o the_o thing_n itself_o declare_v that_o these_o word_n must_v be_v attribute_v to_o christ_n when_o he_o come_v into_o this_o world_n and_o it_o be_v no_o obstacle_n to_o this_o that_o both_o according_a to_o the_o greek_a translation_n and_o according_a to_o the_o literal_a sense_n of_o the_o hebrew_n word_n we_o respect_v that_o place_n wherein_o the_o office_n of_o the_o king_n be_v describe_v whence_o christ_n as_o now_o make_v a_o king_n seem_v to_o
