the_o time_n express_v in_o the_o second_o axiom_n be_v the_o time_n when_o god_n bring_v they_o out_o of_o egypt_n in_o the_o three_o month_n after_o their_o departure_n out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o bondage_n they_o be_v in_o a_o sad_a condition_n when_o god_n as_o a_o father_n take_v they_o by_o the_o hand_n and_o it_o be_v a_o great_a mercy_n to_o deliver_v they_o to_o have_v such_o a_o special_a care_n of_o they_o to_o do_v so_o many_o wonder_n for_o they_o and_o then_o bind_v himself_o in_o covenant_n to_o they_o for_o though_o that_o covenant_n be_v far_o inferior_a to_o this_o new_a one_o yet_o it_o be_v a_o great_a mercy_n unto_o they_o and_o tend_v to_o their_o great_a good_a the_o place_n where_o it_o be_v make_v be_v here_o employ_v which_o be_v the_o wilderness_n of_o sinai_n of_o the_o make_n of_o it_o we_o read_v exod._n 19_o of_o the_o confirm_v of_o it_o by_o sacrifice_n blood_n and_o a_o sacrificial_a feast_n exod._n 24._o 3._o they_o continue_v not_o in_o that_o covenant_n for_o they_o do_v prove_v unfaithful_a to_o their_o god_n and_o disobedient_a to_o his_o law_n they_o forsake_v he_o and_o revolt_v from_o their_o lord_n and_o sovereign_n &_o go_v a_o whore_v after_o other_o god_n the_o golden_a calf_n and_o idol_n of_o the_o heathen_a ●nd_v pollute_v themselves_o with_o their_o abomination_n and_o though_o god_n have_v be_v a_o husband_n to_o they_o yet_o they_o do_v all_o this_o according_a to_o their_o lewd_a and_o whorish_a heart_n and_o this_o do_v much_o aggravate_v their_o sin_n for_o the_o covenant_n make_v between_o god_n and_o they_o be_v like_o the_o covenant_n of_o marriage_n a_o covenant_n of_o near_a union_n dear_a love_n and_o strict_a obligation_n and_o god_n have_v carry_v himself_o towards_o they_o like_o a_o love_a and_o most_o faithful_a husband_n and_o yet_o they_o do_v apostate_n from_o he_o and_o make_v the_o covenant_n void_a 4._o therefore_o god_n neglect_v they_o and_o regard_v they_o not_o for_o he_o reject_v and_o cast_v off_o the_o kingdom_n of_o israel_n and_o send_v judah_n into_o captivity_n and_o why_o shall_v he_o regard_v a_o lewd_a impious_a whorish_a people_n who_o have_v forsake_v their_o god_n and_o refuse_v to_o turn_v unto_o he_o this_o be_v a_o just_a punishment_n for_o their_o grievous_a sin_n and_o so_o it_o be_v to_o their_o posterity_n who_o adhere_v to_o the_o old_a reject_v the_o new_a covenant_n 5._o this_o new_a covenant_n be_v not_o according_a unto_o but_z different_z from_o this_o old_a one_o it_o differ_v in_o the_o foundation_n and_o ground_n in_o the_o term_n and_o condition_n in_o the_o promise_n in_o the_o force_n and_o efficacy_n and_o we_o may_v add_v in_o the_o mediator_n the_o foundation_n of_o this_o covenant_n whereon_o as_o upon_o its_o basis_n it_o stand_v so_o firm_a as_o never_o to_o be_v shake_v and_o alter_v be_v the_o blood_n and_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n without_o which_o god_n will_v not_o covenant_v upon_o any_o term_n with_o sinful_a guilty_a man_n the_o term_n be_v repentance_n and_o faith_n not_o do_v this_o and_o live_v the_o promise_n be_v not_o of_o legal_a remission_n and_o temporal_a prosperity_n but_o of_o eternal_a pardon_n of_o all_o sin_n repent_v of_o and_o of_o eternal_a happiness_n the_o efficacy_n and_o power_n be_v great_a for_o this_o covenant_n give_v power_n to_o keep_v the_o condition_n and_o can_v purge_v the_o conscience_n neither_o of_o which_o the_o former_a be_v able_a to_o do_v last_o the_o mediator_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n a_o far_o more_o excellent_a priest_n 6._o the_o lord_n say_v this_o and_o this_o be_v the_o second_o time_n wherein_o the_o lord_n be_v bring_v in_o as_o witness_v and_o that_o to_o signify_v the_o certainty_n of_o the_o whole_a and_o every_o part_n of_o what_o be_v speak_v and_o it_o have_v be_v to_o little_a purpose_n if_o any_o but_o god_n have_v say_v so_o for_o he_o alone_o have_v power_n to_o alter_v and_o make_v void_a the_o former_a and_o establish_v this_o new_a latter_a covenant_n he_o only_o fore-knew_a what_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v and_o can_v foretell_v it_o infallible_o he_o only_o can_v make_v the_o prediction_n good_a his_o testimony_n only_o be_v of_o undeniable_a authority_n §_o 10._o after_o that_o you_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o party_n confederate_v the_o time_n of_o confederation_n and_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o covenant_n as_o be_v new_a and_o far_o different_a from_o the_o old_a you_o must_v more_o especial_o consider_v the_o promise_n which_o be_v essential_a part_n of_o this_o covenant_n by_o which_o be_v manifest_v the_o real_a difference_n of_o it_o from_o the_o former_a and_o the_o excellency_n and_o perfection_n thereof_o for_o the_o former_a be_v so_o defective_a that_o it_o can_v sanctify_v and_o justify_v no_o man_n nay_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o unfaithfulness_n and_o untowardliness_n of_o the_o people_n under_o the_o same_o it_o do_v not_o reach_v the_o end_n which_o by_o it_o be_v intend_v the_o part_n thereof_o seem_v to_o be_v only_o promise_v yet_o the_o covenant_n have_v precept_n and_o term_n as_o condition_n with_o threaten_n of_o penalty_n if_o not_o perform_v and_o though_o these_o be_v not_o express_v yet_o they_o be_v not_o exclude_v but_o employ_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o promise_n be_v only_o mention_v be_v because_o they_o be_v the_o principal_a part_n upon_o which_o the_o attain_n of_o the_o ultimate_a end_n do_v most_o depend_v and_o these_o be_v solemn_o usher_v in_o by_o these_o word_n ver._n 10._o for_o this_o be_v the_o covenant_n that_o i_o will_v make_v with_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n after_o those_o day_n etc._n etc._n for_o god_n not_o content_a to_o say_v i_o will_v make_v a_o new_a covenant_n add_v that_o this_o be_v the_o covenant_n by_o the_o former_a word_n he_o signify_v his_o will_n to_o make_v a_o new_a covenant_n and_o by_o these_o he_o inform_v we_o what_o this_o covenant_n be_v and_o what_o be_v the_o promise_v by_o the_o former_a we_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v different_a from_o the_o former_a by_o this_o latter_a we_o learn_v wherein_o the_o the_o difference_n consist_v and_o that_o be_v chief_o though_o not_o only_o in_o the_o promise_n which_o be_v so_o excellent_a that_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o former_a covenant_n be_v not_o worthy_a to_o be_v name_v with_o they_o yet_o this_o be_v not_o all_o but_o he_o again_o inform_v of_o the_o time_n after_o those_o day_n for_o as_o the_o former_a covenant_n be_v make_v after_o the_o deliverance_n out_o of_o egypt_n so_o this_o latter_a must_v be_v make_v after_o the_o return_n of_o babylon_n captivity_n and_o it_o be_v remarkable_a that_o he_o deep_o humble_v by_o great_a and_o bitter_a affliction_n both_o the_o

more_o capable_a of_o his_o mercy_n and_o more_o desirous_a of_o his_o blessing_n so_o much_o corruption_n be_v in_o man_n that_o god_n have_v much_o ado_n with_o we_o for_o to_o reduce_v we_o and_o make_v we_o a_o subject_a fit_a to_o receive_v his_o covenant_n and_o his_o promise_n and_o here_o again_o god_n be_v bring_v in_o a_o witness_v the_o three_o time_n by_o that_o clause_n say_v the_o
