child_n and_o such_o like_a we_o say_v it_o be_v a_o blessing_n but_o in_o his_o degree_n that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o this_o life_n present_a but_o as_o touch_v life_n everlasting_a it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o have_v corporal_a blessing_n for_o the_o very_a wicked_a do_v therein_o abound_v most_o of_o all_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a that_o we_o have_v civil_a righteousness_n or_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n for_o therein_o also_o the_o wicked_a do_v special_o flourish_v these_o thing_n god_n distribute_v in_o the_o world_n free_o &_o bestow_v they_o both_o upon_o the_o good_a and_o bad_a like_a as_o he_o suffer_v the_o sun_n to_o rise_v both_o upon_o the_o good_a and_o the_o evil_a 1.20_o and_o send_v rain_n upon_o the_o righteous_a and_o unrighteous_a for_o he_o be_v liberal_a unto_o all_o and_o to_o he_o it_o be_v a_o small_a matter_n to_o put_v all_o creature_n under_o the_o foot_n of_o the_o wicked_a the_o creature_n be_v subject_a to_o vanity_n not_o of_o his_o own_o will_n rom._n 8._o they_o therefore_o which_o have_v but_o only_o these_o corporal_a blessing_n be_v not_o the_o child_n of_o god_n bless_v before_o god_n spiritual_o as_o be_v abraham_n but_o they_o be_v under_o the_o curse_n as_o paul_n here_o say_v whosoever_o be_v under_o the_o work_n of_o the_o la_o be_v under_o the_o curse_n paul_n may_v have_v say_v by_o a_o general_a proposition_n whatsoever_o be_v without_o faith_n be_v under_o the_o curse_n he_o say_v not_o so_o but_o he_o take_v that_o which_o beside_o faith_n be_v the_o best_a the_o great_a and_o most_o excellent_a among_o all_o corporal_a blessing_n of_o the_o world_n to_o wit_n the_o law_n of_o god_n that_o law_n say_v he_o in_o deed_n be_v holy_a and_o give_v of_o god_n notwithstanding_o it_o do_v nothing_o else_o but_o make_v all_o man_n subject_a to_o the_o curse_n and_o keep_v they_o under_o the_o same_o law_n now_o if_o the_o law_n of_o god_n do_v make_v man_n subject_a to_o the_o curse_n much_o more_o do_v the_o inferior_a law_n and_o blessing_n and_o that_o it_o may_v be_v plain_o understand_v what_o paul_n call_v it_o to_o be_v under_o the_o curse_n he_o declare_v by_o this_o testimony_n of_o the_o scripture_n say_v 2d_o verse_n 10._o for_o it_o be_v write_v curse_v be_v every_o man_n that_o continue_v not_o in_o all_o thing_n which_o be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n to_o do_v they_o paul_n go_v about_o to_o prove_v by_o this_o testimony_n take_v out_o of_o the_o 27._o of_o deuteronomie_n that_o all_o man_n which_o be_v under_o the_o law_n or_o under_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n be_v accurse_v or_o under_o the_o curse_n that_o be_v to_o say_v under_o sin_n the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o everlasting_a death_n for_o he_o speak_v not_o as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o of_o a_o corporal_a but_o of_o a_o spiritual_a curse_n which_o must_v needs_o be_v the_o curse_n of_o everlasting_a death_n and_o hell_n fire_n and_o this_o be_v a_o wonderful_a manner_n of_o prove_v for_o paul_n prove_v this_o affirmative_a sentence_n which_o he_o borrow_v out_o of_o moses_n whosoever_o be_v of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n be_v under_o the_o curse_n by_o this_o negative_a curse_v be_v every_o one_o that_o abide_v not_o in_o all_o thing_n etc_n etc_n now_o these_o two_o sentence_n of_o paul_n and_o moses_n seem_v clean_o contrary_a paul_n say_v whosoever_o shall_v do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n be_v accurse_v moses_n say_v who_o so_o ever_o shall_v not_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n be_v accurse_v how_o shall_v these_o two_o say_n be_v reconcile_v together_o or_o else_o which_o be_v more_o how_o shall_v the_o one_o be_v prove_v by_o the_o other_o in_o deed_n no_o man_n can_v well_o understand_v this_o place_n unless_o he_o also_o know_v and_o understand_v the_o article_n of_o justification_n paul_n no_o doubt_n be_v among_o the_o galatian_n have_v before_o more_o large_o entreat_v of_o this_o matter_n for_o else_o they_o can_v not_o have_v understand_v it_o see_v he_o do_v here_o but_o touch_v it_o by_o the_o way_n but_o because_o they_o have_v hear_v he_o declare_v the_o same_o unto_o they_o before_o they_o be_v now_o again_o put_v in_o mind_n thereof_o do_v call_v it_o to_o remembrance_n and_o these_o two_o sentence_n be_v not_o repugnant_a but_o do_v very_o well_o agree_v we_o also_o do_v teach_v in_o like_a manner_n that_o the_o hearer_n of_o the_o law_n be_v not_o righteous_a before_o god_n but_o the_o doer_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v be_v justify_v rom._n 2._o 2d_o and_o contrariwise_o they_o that_o be_v of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o la_o be_v under_o the_o curse_n for_o the_o article_n of_o justification_n teach_v that_o whatsoever_o be_v without_o the_o faith_n of_o abraham_n be_v accurse_v contrary_a and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n must_v be_v fulfil_v in_o we_o rom._n 8._o to_o a_o man_n that_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n these_o two_o sentence_n seem_v to_o be_v quite_o contrary_a wherefore_o above_o all_o thing_n we_o must_v mark_v well_o whereupon_o paul_n entreat_v in_o this_o place_n wherabout_o he_o go_v and_o how_o he_o look_v into_o moses_n he_o be_v here_o as_o before_o i_o have_v often_o say_v in_o a_o spiritual_a matter_n separate_v from_o policy_n and_o from_o all_o law_n and_o he_o look_v into_o moses_n with_o other_o eye_n then_z the_o hypocrite_n &_o false_a apostle_n do_v and_o expound_v the_o law_n spiritual_o law_n wherefore_o the_o whole_a effect_n of_o the_o matter_n consist_v in_o this_o word_n to_o do_v now_o to_o do_v the_o law_n be_v not_o only_o to_o do_v it_o outward_o but_o to_o do_v it_o true_o &_o perfect_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n then_o of_o doer_n of_o the_o law_n the_o first_o be_v they_o which_o be_v of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n against_o who_o paul_n strive_v throughout_o all_o this_o epistle_n the_o other_o sort_n be_v they_o which_o be_v of_o faith_n of_o who_o we_o will_v speak_v hereafter_o now_o to_o be_v of_o the_o law_n or_o of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n and_o to_o be_v of_o faith_n be_v quite_o contrary_a yea_o even_o as_o contrary_a as_o god_n and_o the_o devil_n sin_n and_o righteousness_n death_n and_o life_n for_o they_o be_v of_o the_o law_n which_o will_v be_v make_v righteous_a by_o the_o law_n faith_n they_o be_v of_o faith_n which_o do_v assure_o trust_v that_o they_o be_v make_v righteous_a through_o only_a mercy_n for_o christ_n sake_n he_o which_o say_v that_o righteousness_n be_v of_o faith_n curse_v and_o condemn_v the_o righteousness_n of_o work_n contrariwise_o he_o which_o say_v that_o righteousness_n be_v of_o the_o law_n curse_v and_o condemn_v the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n therefore_o they_o be_v altogether_o contrary_a the_o one_o to_o the_o other_o law_n he_o that_o consider_v this_o shall_v easy_o understand_v that_o to_o perform_v the_o law_n be_v not_o to_o do_v that_o which_o be_v command_v in_o the_o law_n in_o outward_a show_n only_o as_o the_o hypocrite_n imagine_v but_o in_o spirit_n that_o be_v to_o say_v true_o and_o perfect_o opinion_n but_o where_o shall_v we_o find_v he_o that_o will_v so_o accomplish_v the_o law_n let_v we_o see_v he_o and_o we_o will_v praise_v he_o here_o our_o adversary_n have_v their_o answer_n ready_a say_v the_o doer_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v be_v justify_v rom._n 2._o very_o well_o but_o let_v we_o first_o define_v who_o be_v these_o doer_n of_o the_o law_n thereof_o they_o call_v he_o a_o doer_n of_o the_o law_n which_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n and_o so_o by_o those_o work_n go_v before_o be_v make_v righteous_a this_o be_v not_o to_o do_v the_o law_n according_a to_o paul_n for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v to_o be_v of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n and_o to_o be_v of_o faith_n be_v contrary_a thing_n therefore_o to_o seek_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n be_v to_o deny_v the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n wherefore_o these_o justiciary_n and_o lawworker_n when_o they_o do_v the_o law_n even_o in_o so_o do_v deny_v the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n and_o sin_n against_o the_o first_o the_o second_o and_o third_o commaunment_n meritmonger_n yea_o even_o against_o the_o whole_a law_n for_o god_n command_v that_o we_o shall_v worship_v he_o in_o faith_n and_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o his_o name_n these_o on_o the_o contrary_n make_v righteousness_n of_o work_n without_o faith_n and_o against_o faith_n therefore_o in_o that_o they_o do_v the_o law_n they_o do_v clean_o contrary_a to_o the_o law_n and_o sin_n most_o deadly_a for_o they_o deny_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n his_o mercy_n &_o his_o promise_n they_o deny_v christ_n withal_o his_o

for_o the_o people_n be_v great_o delight_v with_o allegory_n and_o similitude_n and_o therefore_o christ_n himself_o oftentimes_o use_v they_o for_o they_o be_v as_o it_o be_v certain_a picture_n

allegory_n now_o allegory_n paul_n be_v a_o marvellous_a cunning_a workman_n in_o handle_v of_o allegory_n for_o he_o be_v wont_a to_o apply_v they_o to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n to_o grace_n and_o to_o christ_n and_o not_o to_o the_o law_n and_o the_o work_v thereof_o as_o origen_n and_o hierom_n do_v hierom._n who_o be_v worthy_o reprehend_v for_o that_o they_o turn_v the_o plain_a sentence_n of_o the_o scripture_n where_o allegory_n have_v no_o place_n into_o unfit_a and_o foolish_a allegory_n therefore_o to_o use_v allegory_n it_o be_v oftentimes_o a_o very_a dangerous_a thing_n for_o unless_o a_o man_n have_v the_o perfect_a knowledge_n of_o christian_a doctrine_n he_o can_v not_o use_v allegory_n right_o and_o as_o he_o shall_v do_v but_o why_o do_v paul_n call_v the_o book_n of_o genesis_n la_o out_o of_o the_o which_o he_o allege_v the_o history_n of_o ishmael_n and_o of_o isaac_n the_o law_n see_v that_o book_n contain_v nothing_o at_o all_o concern_v the_o

which_o be_v there_o contain_v call_v the_o book_n of_o genesis_n the_o law_n as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o book_n of_o moses_n so_o do_v paul_n himself_o also_o be_v a_o jew_n and_o christ_n under_o
