much_o plainness_n and_o brevity_n and_o also_o garnish_v with_o much_o learning_n from_o the_o ancient_a rabbin_n which_o the_o new_a testament_n allow_v which_o when_o i_o have_v well_o consider_v i_o begin_v to_o reason_n with_o myself_o why_o so_o worthy_a a_o work_n shall_v be_v hide_v from_o the_o world_n and_o not_o rather_o be_v communicate_v to_o all_o for_o the_o common_a good_a of_o all_o especial_o consider_v that_o it_o be_v his_o continual_a desire_n &_o constant_a endeavour_n not_o to_o hide_v his_o learning_n but_o to_o spend_v himself_o and_o his_o whole_a estate_n in_o the_o service_n of_o christ_n by_o advance_v the_o gospel_n and_o expound_v the_o holy_a schripture_n both_o the_o history_n of_o they_o and_o also_o the_o doctrine_n of_o they_o and_o first_o for_o the_o history_n of_o the_o scripture_n he_o compose_v it_o in_o a_o most_o plain_a and_o profitable_a manner_n into_o one_o short_a view_n which_o he_o call_v a_o consent_n of_o scripture_n and_o herein_o he_o do_v careful_o explain_v three_o necessary_a circumstance_n that_o be_v to_o say_v time_n place_n and_o person_n without_o the_o knowledge_n of_o which_o circumstance_n the_o history_n of_o the_o bible_n can_v never_o right_o be_v understand_v and_o therefore_o with_o great_a pain_n and_o no_o less_o learning_n he_o make_v many_o several_a treatise_n upon_o these_o three_o circumstance_n first_o prove_v the_o truth_n of_o they_o by_o scripture_n and_o second_o in_o defend_v of_o that_o truth_n against_o the_o manifold_a error_n of_o former_a writer_n and_o also_o against_o the_o manifold_a cavilation_n of_o sundry_a late_a opposer_n and_o therefore_o all_o those_o that_o upbraid_v his_o learned_a pain_n with_o the_o term_n of_o needless_a genealogy_n and_o unprofitable_a chronologie_n they_o be_v worthy_a to_o bear_v the_o burden_n of_o their_o own_o ignorance_n for_o howsoever_o they_o think_v in_o their_o own_o conceit_n they_o know_v much_o yet_o in_o deed_n &_o in_o truth_n they_o may_v know_v more_o to_o their_o great_a joy_n and_o comfort_n if_o they_o do_v not_o despise_v the_o holy_a rule_n i_o mean_v the_o afore-named_n circumstance_n wherewith_o god_n have_v garnish_v his_o bless_a word_n as_o a_o special_a help_n to_o guide_v every_o wise_a heart_a reader_n in_o the_o true_a understanding_n of_o the_o same_o and_o second_o this_o learned_a divine_a of_o bless_a memory_n have_v also_o declare_v his_o special_a love_n to_o the_o church_n of_o god_n in_o add_v much_o help_n for_o the_o better_a understanding_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o bible_n although_o his_o manner_n be_v not_o to_o make_v large_a common-place_n book_n because_o the_o most_o writer_n do_v employ_v their_o pain_n about_o it_o therefore_o he_o think_v it_o more_o necessary_a to_o employ_v himself_o in_o give_v rule_n for_o the_o true_a understanding_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o for_o the_o right_n expound_v of_o some_o common_a place_n wherein_o many_o writer_n do_v not_o agree_v because_o the_o scope_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v not_o right_o understand_v and_o therefore_o he_o have_v give_v we_o warning_n how_o to_o understand_v many_o common_a place_n as_o about_o predestination_n &_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n and_o about_o the_o article_n common_o call_v christ_n descent_n into_o hell_n etc._n etc._n also_o he_o speak_v much_o and_o to_o great_a light_n upon_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o holy_a trinity_n and_o of_o the_o incarnation_n and_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n as_o also_o of_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n and_o of_o the_o great_a mystery_n of_o our_o redemption_n and_o of_o many_o other_o weighty_a point_n as_o appear_v in_o this_o ensue_a treatise_n and_o in_o many_o other_o of_o his_o work_n as_o in_o job_n ecclesiastes_n daniel_n and_o his_o large_a commentary_n on_o the_o appocalypsis_n etc._n etc._n now_o if_o this_o be_v true_a as_o it_o be_v most_o evident_a in_o the_o aforenamed_a book_n than_o it_o shall_v stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o all_o those_o that_o slander_n his_o learned_a pain_n because_o say_v they_o he_o teach_v no_o sanctification_n but_o they_o do_v little_o consider_v when_o they_o say_v so_o that_o the_o ground_n of_o sanctification_n consist_v in_o the_o holy_a and_o right_a knowledge_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o must_v first_o be_v seat_v in_o the_o

his_o great_a learning_n lament_v because_o so_o few_o regard_n it_o for_o it_o be_v almost_o solitary_a and_o unknown_a to_o his_o own_o nation_n because_o few_o do_v know_v what_o his_o learned_a

will_v to_o god_n that_o some_o learned_a man_n will_v take_v the_o pain_n to_o contrive_v all_o his_o work_n in_o to_o one_o volume_n that_o so_o his_o great_a learning_n may_v not_o perish_v in_o
