eccles_n 7.1_o when_o he_o be_v gather_v to_o his_o father_n as_o under_o the_o old_a testament_n god_n multiply_v vision_n and_o use_v similitude_n by_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o prophet_n hos_fw-la 12.10_o so_o under_o the_o new_a testament_n christ_n speak_v very_o often_o to_o the_o multitude_n in_o parable_n matth._n 13.34_o this_o be_v a_o very_a useful_a way_n of_o teach_v some_o call_v image_n laymens_n book_n because_o they_o suppose_v they_o represent_v thing_n so_o clear_o and_o plain_o to_o the_o mean_a capacity_n but_o though_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o require_v spiritual_a worship_n yet_o he_o have_v think_v fit_a to_o represent_v spiritual_a thing_n by_o natural_a so_o that_o as_o it_o be_v say_v the_o invisible_a thing_n of_o he_o be_v see_v clear_o from_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n rom._n 1.20_o and_o if_o we_o do_v undersland_n that_o of_o the_o time_n ever_o since_o the_o creation_n yet_o the_o word_n follow_v be_v to_o be_v understand_v

in_o the_o world_n serve_v to_o represent_v spiritual_a thing_n to_o we_o and_o while_o we_o have_v such_o a_o teacher_n as_o christ_n to_o instruct_v we_o in_o the_o resemblance_n that_o be_v betwixt_o these_o thing_n they_o may_v be_v of_o much_o use_n to_o we_o to_o help_v our_o understanding_n and_o memory_n to_o quicken_v our_o affection_n and_o to_o invite_v and_o draw_v our_o

heavenly_a thing_n which_o be_v a_o great_a advantage_n to_o we_o because_o we_o have_v so_o little_a command_n over_o our_o thought_n and_o because_o all_o our_o action_n have_v their_o first_o

further_o i_o will_v premise_v that_o in_o similitude_n the_o scripture_n be_v very_o brief_a and_o concise_a so_o that_o there_o be_v not_o only_o a_o omission_n sometime_o of_o the_o note_n of_o similitude_n which_o do_v frequent_o occur_v in_o scripture_n but_o the_o protasis_n and_o apodosis_n as_o they_o be_v call_v be_v confound_v together_o and_o not_o set_v exact_o one_o against_o another_o or_o explain_v one_o by_o the_o other_o as_o prov._n 11.22_o a_o fair_a woman_n be_v not_o as_o a_o jewel_n of_o gold_n but_o beauty_n in_o a_o foolish_a woman_n as_o a_o jewel_n of_o gold_n in_o a_o swine_n snout_n so_o john_n 3.8_o he_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o spirit_n be_v not_o like_o the_o wind_n but_o in_o the_o business_n of_o regeneration_n the_o spirit_n work_v free_o invisible_o yet_o effectual_o as_o the_o wind_n blow_v sometime_o that_o only_o which_o belong_v to_o the_o protasis_n or_o former_a part_n of_o the_o similitude_n be_v express_v without_o that_o in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o similitude_n which_o answer_v thereto_o as_o luke_n 12.35_o let_v your_o loin_n be_v gird_v about_o and_o your_o light_n burn_v we_o need_v not_o busy_v ourselves_o to_o find_v out_o what_o be_v these_o loin_n that_o shall_v be_v gird_v and_o those_o light_n that_o shall_v be_v burn_v for_o those_o expression_n belong_v to_o the_o person_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v like_a to_o as_o those_o that_o wait_v for_o their_o master_n be_v come_v from_o a_o wedding_n shall_v not_o only_o be_v up_o and_o have_v their_o clothes_n on_o but_o shall_v have_v those_o garment_n gird_v about_o they_o which_o be_v much_o like_a morning_n gown_n which_o they_o can_v not_o well_o either_o run_v in_o or_o do_v service_n in_o unless_o they_o be_v gird_v about_o they_o as_o you_o may_v see_v by_o 1_o king_n 18.46_o and_o luke_n 17.8_o so_o they_o shall_v not_o only_o have_v their_o light_n or_o lamp_n by_o they_o but_o have_v they_o ready_a light_v that_o they_o may_v not_o make_v their_o master_n stay_v when_o they_o knock_v till_o they_o be_v prepare_v to_o wait_v on_o they_o but_o that_o they_o may_v open_v to_o they_o immediate_o so_o we_o shall_v not_o only_o be_v in_o a_o habitual_a preparation_n for_o death_n by_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o grace_n but_o in_o a_o actual_a preparation_n for_o it_o have_v our_o evidence_n for_o heaven_n ready_a our_o heart_n wean_v from_o the_o world_n a_o clear_a prospect_n of_o suture_a glory_n and_o be_v always_o so_o employ_v as_o death_n may_v not_o surprise_v we_o idle_a or_o do_v that_o which_o be_v evil_a i_o have_v spend_v so_o many_o word_n on_o this_o thing_n because_o it_o may_v be_v of_o use_n to_o we_o for_o the_o right_a understanding_n of_o this_o parable_n out_o of_o which_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n be_v take_v wherein_o he_o instruct_v his_o disciple_n how_o they_o thould_v carry_v themselves_o in_o his_o absence_n the_o time_n of_o his_o departure_n from_o they_o be_v now_o at_o hand_n we_o have_v this_o parable_n different_o set_v down_o here_o and_o in_o lu._n 19.12_o for_o it_o be_v here_o in_o the_o evangelist_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o book_n of_o samuel_n king_n and_o chronicle_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n what_o be_v omit_v in_o one_o book_n be_v set_v down_o in_o another_o so_o that_o put_v together_o they_o make_v the_o history_n more_o complete_a therefore_o the_o greek_a translator_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n call_v the_o book_n of_o chronicle_n paralipomena_fw-la or_o praetermission_n because_o many_o thing_n be_v add_v in_o they_o which_o be_v omit_v in_o the_o forego_n book_n in_o luke_n he_o plainiy_n foretell_v what_o he_o shall_v meet_v with_o from_o the_o jew_n and_o how_o he_o shall_v be_v reject_v of_o they_o but_o in_o both_o he_o be_v compare_v to_o one_o go_v from_o home_n and_o leave_v his_o servant_n luke_n say_v a_o noble_a man_n go_v to_o receive_v a_o kingdom_n he_o must_v indeed_o be_v a_o great_a man_n that_o give_v so_o many_o talent_n to_o his_o servant_n to_o trade_n with_o till_o he_o come_v back_o again_o the_o parable_n plain_o show_v that_o he_o give_v to_o some_o more_o to_o some_o less_o according_a to_o their_o place_n and_o ability_n luke_n say_v pound_n but_o the_o evangelist_n have_v regard_v rather_o to_o the_o sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o christ_n than_o to_o his_o word_n they_o both_o imply_v that_o he_o give_v different_a sum_n of_o money_n or_o portion_n of_o good_n now_o when_o they_o come_v to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o the_o improvement_n of_o what_o he_o have_v commit_v to_o their_o trust_n the_o first_o have_v double_v his_o stock_n or_o what_o he_o be_v trust_v withal_o and_o here_o in_o the_o text_n we_o have_v his_o lord_n approbation_n of_o what_o he_o have_v do_v and_o his_o liberal_a reward_v of_o his_o diligence_n and_o faithfulness_n it_o be_v but_o little_a in_o comparison_n which_o he_o have_v trust_v he_o with_o but_o he_o shall_v be_v
