bring_v the_o matter_n in_o debate_n to_o as_o narrow_a a_o compass_n as_o i_o can_v i_o shall_v reduce_v it_o to_o this_o question_n whether_o the_o through_o settlement_n of_o a_o usurper_n do_v entitle_v he_o to_o the_o allegiance_n of_o the_o subject_n over_o who_o his_o usurpation_n be_v thorough_o settle_v though_o the_o rightful_a king_n who_o be_v out_o of_o possession_n be_v still_o

second_o upon_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o first_o the_o convocation_n express_o determin_n that_o there_o be_v some_o kind_n of_o through_o settlement_n which_o be_v sufficient_a to_o

convocation_n it_o will_v be_v convenient_a to_o give_v a_o brief_a account_n of_o the_o first_o book_n so_o as_o to_o collect_v all_o together_o that_o concern_v this_o matter_n that_o at_o one_o view_v a_o more_o clear_a and_o distinct_a notion_n may_v be_v have_v of_o it_o they_o declare_v their_o chief_a purpose_n to_o be_v to_o imitate_v the_o scripture_n

one_o can_v only_o confirm_v and_o strengthen_v it_o indeed_o when_o there_o be_v two_o tile_n one_o may_v sometime_o hold_v good_a when_o the_o other_o fail_v but_o then_o this_o must_v be_v when_o the_o title_n be_v whole_o distinct_a and_o independent_a one_o upon_o another_o as_o they_o be_v not_o in_o the_o present_a case_n for_o god_n bestow_v the_o kingdom_n upon_o david_n for_o he_o and_o his_o heir_n after_o he_o to_o hold_v by_o succession_n that_o be_v to_o hold_v by_o the_o same_o right_n that_o other_o hereditary_a monarch_n hold_v by_o so_o that_o if_o he_o by_o his_o providence_n have_v dispose_v of_o the_o hereditary_a right_n and_o cause_v it_o to_o fail_v his_o promise_n which_o be_v ground_v upon_o this_o hereditary_a right_n or_o rather_o do_v suppose_v it_o as_o its_o object_n or_o the_o thing_n promise_v can_v now_o no_o long_o give_v he_o a_o title_n to_o the_o kingdom_n for_o god_n by_o his_o promise_n do_v not_o bar_v himself_o from_o dispose_v of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o judah_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o he_o dispose_v of_o all_o other_o hereditary_a kingdom_n but_o he_o promise_v david_n that_o he_o shall_v rule_v that_o kingdom_n by_o a_o hereditary_a right_n just_a in_o the_o same_o manner_n and_o by_o the_o same_o tenure_n from_o himself_o that_o other_o hereditary_a king_n hold_v by_o god_n have_v promise_v to_o protect_v the_o king_n of_o judah_n and_o to_o continue_v the_o kingdom_n to_o they_o and_o that_o a_o peculiar_a providence_n shall_v watch_v over_o they_o but_o never_o that_o his_o providence_n shall_v not_o have_v the_o same_o power_n over_o they_o that_o it_o have_v over_o all_o other_o king_n and_o therefore_o we_o find_v that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o judah_n do_v not_o always_o continue_v without_o interruption_n even_o in_o david_n line_n which_o yet_o it_o must_v have_v do_v if_o god_n promise_n have_v be_v so_o to_o be_v understand_v as_o that_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o contingency_n that_o other_o hereditary_a kingdom_n be_v liable_a to_o and_o upon_o this_o account_n the_o convocation_n propose_v the_o kingdom_n of_o judah_n as_o a_o pattern_n to_o other_o kingdom_n because_o the_o jew_n have_v god_n warrant_n and_o direction_n in_o such_o case_n as_o happen_v in_o other_o kingdom_n whereas_o if_o their_o proceed_n be_v to_o be_v no_o example_n to_o other_o the_o convocation_n have_v argue_v from_o a_o wrong_a principle_n and_o their_o whole_a first_o book_n have_v be_v to_o very_o little_a purpose_n but_o grant_v that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o judah_n be_v by_o the_o entail_v upon_o david_n line_n exempt_v from_o the_o ordinary_a law_n of_o providence_n yet_o i_o shall_v show_v first_o that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o exempt_v in_o the_o time_n of_o joash_n second_o that_o when_o god_n by_o he_o reveal_v will_n depose_v the_o king_n of_o judah_n he_o so_o order_v it_o that_o the_o allegiance_n of_o the_o subject_n will_v have_v be_v

yet_o it_o can_v not_o be_v so_o exempt_v in_o the_o time_n of_o joash_n for_o the_o promise_n to_o david_n house_n be_v conditional_a and_o upon_o supposition_n that_o his_o child_n keep_v god_n

promise_n they_o can_v no_o long_o have_v any_o pretence_n to_o that_o exemption_n but_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n to_o think_v but_o that_o his_o posterity_n may_v have_v fall_v from_o their_o

all_o those_o with_o his_o authority_n who_o be_v possess_v of_o the_o sovereign_a power_n in_o other_o nation_n the_o jew_n must_v have_v conclude_v in_o the_o case_n of_o joash_n and_o athaliah_n that_o since_o the_o house_n of_o david_n have_v not_o perform_v the_o condition_n express_o annex_v to_o the_o promise_n god_n have_v take_v the_o forfeiture_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o judah_n and_o

the_o condition_n be_v perform_v by_o they_o to_o who_o it_o be_v make_v and_o therefore_o there_o can_v be_v no_o need_n of_o a_o new_a revelation_n to_o take_v away_o the_o kingdom_n from_o david_n
