be_v sell_v for_o no_o long_a time_n than_o till_o the_o year_n of_o jubilee_n when_o all_o estate_n be_v to_o return_v to_o their_o old_a proprietor_n again_o right_a and_o this_o be_v the_o law_n of_o canaan_n and_o by_o virtue_n of_o that_o they_o do_v so_o return_v but_o have_v there_o be_v no_o such_o law_n will_v the_o land-once_a sell_v have_v then_o by_o virtue_n mere_o of_o a_o divine_a entail_v return_v to_o their_o old_a proprietor_n but_o in_o other_o country_n man_n may_v part_v with_o their_o estate_n for_o ever_o right_o again_o because_o the_o law_n permit_v they_o so_o to_o

though_o the_o provision_n have_v be_v make_v only_o by_o a_o humane_a law_n thus_o say_v he_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o judah_n though_o god_n by_o his_o sovereign_a authority_n may_v set_v up_o a_o

thence_o by_o evident_a consequence_n he_o reply_v he_o have_v show_v it_o before_o and_o it_o be_v in_o his_o book_n still_o and_o there_o i_o may_v see_v it_o as_o if_o i_o have_v not_o at_o all_o consider_v what_o he_o have_v say_v in_o his_o book_n in_o my_o answer_n but_o to_o say_v that_o he_o will_v examine_v that_o present_o will_v not_o have_v be_v so_o sharp_a nor_o half_a so_o magisterial_a as_o to_o say_v it_o be_v in_o my_o book_n still_o and_o there_o he_o may_v find_v it_o but_o by_o his_o favour_n i_o can_v find_v that_o he_o have_v show_v it_o either_o in_o his_o former_a or_o in_o his_o new_a book_n and_o that_o he_o have_v only_o say_v it_o but_o not_o show_v it_o will_v appear_v present_o but_o i_o have_v say_v that_o this_o law_n have_v need_n be_v very_o clear_a and_o evident_a and_o the_o dr._n have_v need_n be_v very_o sure_a of_o it_o when_o he_o build_v not_o only_o his_o book_n but_o his_o practice_n upon_o it_o in_o plain_a contradiction_n by_o his_o own_o confession_n to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n he_o reply_v i_o never_o confess_v this_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a that_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n if_o we_o will_v believe_v learned_a judge_n and_o lawyer_n do_v allow_v and_o justify_v it_o i_o do_v know_v what_o he_o mean_v by_o confess_v but_o if_o to_o maintain_v that_o a_o person_n possess_v of_o the_o throne_n contrary_a to_o law_n be_v to_o be_v own_v and_o obey_v as_o king_n if_o to_o write_v a_o book_n in_o justification_n of_o that_o doctrine_n and_o to_o call_v that_o book_n his_o reason_n be_v to_o confess_v it_o then_o the_o dr._n have_v confess_v it_o to_o the_o purpose_n and_o i_o do_v know_v how_o i_o shall_v prove_v this_o except_o i_o shall_v reprint_v his_o case_n of_o allegiance_n with_o a_o new_a title_n and_o call_v it_o his_o confession_n for_o there_o be_v not_o a_o page_n nor_o a_o argument_n but_o confess_v it_o bate_v only_o some_o part_n of_o the_o answer_n to_o this_o objection_n but_o the_o objection_n itself_o and_o the_o first_o answer_n as_o plain_o confess_v it_o as_o word_n can_v do_v the_o ground_n of_o the_o objection_n be_v that_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n and_o therefore_o contrary_a to_o our_o duty_n and_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o answer_n be_v that_o what_o he_o have_v say_v i_o e._n what_o he_o have_v say_v before_o concern_v providence_n and_o usurp_v power_n be_v a_o answer_n to_o it_o and_o it_o be_v so_o when_o the_o law_n do_v not_o contradict_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o he_o never_o confess_v it_o and_o all_o for_o this_o poor_a shift_n because_o in_o answer_n to_o a_o objection_n and_o a_o second_o answer_n too_o foreign_a to_o his_o whole_a book_n he_o have_v say_v that_o according_a to_o the_o opinion_n of_o learned_a judge_n and_o lawyer_n the_o law_n do_v allow_v it_o now_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o his_o hypothesis_n or_o his_o argument_n to_o prove_v it_o proceed_v upon_o any_o such_o allowance_n or_o have_v any_o manner_n of_o respect_n to_o it_o and_o i_o wonder_v what_o the_o question_n of_o providence_n as_o he_o handle_v it_o have_v to_o do_v with_o his_o opinion_n of_o judge_n and_o lawyer_n or_o the_o law_n themselves_o for_o he_o debate_v the_o matter_n in_o direct_a opposition_n and_o contradiction_n to_o humane_a law_n and_o to_o say_v he_o never_o confess_v what_o be_v the_o subject_a matter_n the_o whole_a scope_n and_o drift_n of_o his_o book_n because_o ex_fw-la abundanti_fw-la and_o what_o do_v not_o in_o the_o least_o relate_v to_o his_o hypothesis_n he_o have_v mention_v the_o judge_n and_o lawyer_n for_o the_o law_n be_v a_o mean_a evasion_n and_o if_o the_o dr._n like_v his_o own_o word_n better_o a_o childish_a piece_n of_o sophistry_n and_o argue_v great_a contempt_n of_o his_o reader_n 43._o p._n 43._o the_o dr._n tell_v we_o as_o to_o the_o evidence_n of_o this_o law_n command_v obedience_n to_o usurper_n that_o the_o scripture_n be_v plain_a in_o the_o case_n and_o that_o he_o be_v pretty_a sure_a of_o it_o but_o say_v he_o he_o prove_v the_o scripture_n can_v be_v clear_a in_o the_o point_n my_o word_n be_v that_o it_o be_v not_o clear_a be_v evident_a not_o only_o from_o the_o controversy_n about_o it_o in_o the_o late_a dismal_a time_n of_o usurpation_n that_o say_v the_o dr._n be_v to_o say_v nothing_o can_v be_v clear_a in_o scripture_n which_o be_v matter_n of_o controversy_n and_o thus_o we_o must_v either_o be_v sceptic_n in_o religion_n or_o

distinguish_n to_o no_o purpose_n at_o all_o and_o on_o pretence_n of_o true_o state_v confound_v the_o question_n and_o run_v from_o it_o which_o be_v blunder_a with_o a_o witness_n have_v the_o

to_o put_v the_o matter_n upon_o that_o issue_n let_v he_o give_v his_o reason_n and_o i_o will_v submit_v to_o they_o or_o answer_v they_o but_o for_o my_o part_n i_o love_v to_o end_v one_o

who_o understand_v themselves_o in_o this_o controversy_n of_o legal_a power_n this_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o distinction_n between_o a_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la and_o a_o king_n de_fw-fr

the_o doctor_n have_v write_v two_o book_n to_o prove_v that_o a_o person_n who_o be_v not_o next_o heir_n may_v be_v king_n and_o have_v god_n authority_n a_o wonderful_a discovery_n i_o have_v

and_o distinct_a and_o the_o doctor_n understand_v himself_o though_o no_o body_n else_o except_o some_o commonwealth_n man_n be_v able_a to_o understand_v it_o but_o this_o be_v nothing_o but_o

legal_a government_n and_o no_o usurpation_n and_o the_o next_o question_n be_v have_v not_o the_o aramite_n moabite_n babylonian_n and_o all_o the_o government_n the_o convocation_n justify_v obedience_n to_o such_o a_o consent_n and_o submission_n and_o if_o they_o have_v then_o they_o be_v legal_a king_n and_o not_o usurper_n and_o this_o be_v the_o substance_n of_o my_o answer_n and_o to_o which_o i_o have_v add_v for_o confirmation_n that_o the_o convocation_n mention_n but_o two_o usurper_n athaliah_n and_o antiochus_n and_o justify_v the_o resistance_n of_o they_o both_o and_o what_o do_v the_o doctor_n say_v to_o this_o why_o first_o of_o all_o i_o be_o a_o bold_a undertaker_n second_o it_o be_v blunder_a and_o ambiguous_a and_o last_o of_o all_o there_o be_v several_a

by_o a_o direct_a and_o categorical_a answer_n but_o the_o doctor_n tell_v i_o such_o legal_a right_n as_o i_o have_v find_v for_o these_o prince_n will_v quick_o transubstantiate_v all_o usurp_v

he_o give_v the_o egyptian_n good_n to_o the_o israelite_n as_o well_o as_o joram_n crown_v to_o jehu_n and_o therefore_o the_o fundamental_a mistake_n the_o dr._n speak_v of_o of_o make_v no_o

require_v but_o a_o mere_a humane_a right_n but_o to_o make_v a_o legal_a king_n beside_o a_o humane_a right_n to_o the_o crown_n he_o must_v have_v god_n authority_n by_o settle_v a_o estate_n the_o

for_o god_n be_v proprietor_n of_o all_o the_o world_n and_o all_o the_o world_n be_v he_o as_o well_o as_o authority_n and_o no_o man_n can_v have_v a_o right_n to_o any_o part_n of_o it_o but_o as_o that_o right_o be_v derive_v to_o he_o from_o god_n mere_a humane_a right_n or_o mere_a humane_a law_n give_v no_o more_o right_o to_o a_o private_a estate_n than_o it_o do_v to_o authority_n for_o

his_o estate_n or_o good_n and_o no_o man_n have_v a_o right_a to_o authority_n but_o what_o god_n give_v but_o the_o only_a question_n be_v how_o these_o right_n be_v convey_v and_o that_o be_v by_o the_o respective_a law_n of_o each_o country_n he_o that_o have_v a_o right_a by_o law_n have_v a_o right_a from_o god_n and_o he_o that_o have_v not_o a_o right_n by_o law_n have_v no_o right_a from_o god_n the_o law_n as_o authorize_v and_o appoint_v by_o he_o be_v the_o channel_n whereby_o this_o right_n be_v convey_v and_o he_o that_o possess_v himself_o any_o other_o way_n make_v a_o

rule_n and_o method_n he_o himself_o have_v warrant_v and_o direct_v there_o be_v indeed_o some_o case_n wherein_o the_o law_n make_v a_o property_n and_o god_n do_v not_o but_o this_o be_v quite_o contrary_a to_o the_o drs._n hypothesis_n and_o confute_v it_o and_o that_o be_v when_o by_o fraud_n and_o injustice_n and_o corrupt_a mean_n man_n gain_v estate_n they_o may_v have_v a_o title_n in_o

this_o plain_a and_o undeniable_a doctrine_n sit_v hard_o upon_o more_o principle_n than_o one_o of_o the_o drs._n and_o from_o thence_o it_o plain_o follow_v he_o that_o attain_v any_o thing_n by_o

they_o be_v not_o advance_v by_o the_o blessing_n but_o by_o the_o permission_n of_o god_n for_o god_n never_o bless_v any_o wicked_a art_n and_o therefore_o such_o man_n prosperity_n be_v very_o
