of_o necessity_n we_o must_v not_o step_v to_o he_o with_o such_o lustiness_n as_o though_o he_o owe_v we_o any_o thing_n but_o after_o as_o we_o have_v feel_v the_o experience_n of_o his_o goodness_n

it_o be_v not_o only_a moses_n that_o have_v use_v this_o manner_n of_o pray_v we_o see_v it_o be_v common_a among_o all_o the_o ancient_a father_n how_o often_o see_v we_o it_o use_v in_o the_o

to_o show_v thy_o servant_n the_o highness_n of_o thy_o mighty_a arm_n now_o moses_n speak_v here_o express_o of_o god_n highness_n and_o greatness_n and_o of_o the_o mighty_a power_n of_o his_o

that_o have_v publish_v his_o law_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o moses_n if_o he_o alone_o be_v god_n then_o be_v this_o comparison_n superfluous_a yea_o and_o even_o fond_a and_o to_o no_o purpose_n but_o we_o have_v to_o note_v that_o in_o speak_v so_o moses_n mean_v not_o that_o there_o be_v a_o multitude_n of_o god_n so_o as_o every_o of_o they_o wrought_v according_a to_o his_o own_o ability_n

to_o he_o that_o he_o shall_v not_o pass_v over_o jordan_n to_o go_v into_o the_o land_n of_o promise_n but_o as_o for_o you_o say_v he_o you_n shall_v pass_v over_o and_o enjoy_v the_o possession_n

enter_v into_o the_o land_n of_o promise_n for_o as_o i_o have_v touch_v heretofore_o moses_n mean_v not_o to_o justify_v himself_o for_o indeed_o he_o be_v great_o blameworthy_a before_o god_n &_o

follow_v the_o doctrine_n that_o our_o god_n have_v give_v we_o and_o whereby_o it_o be_v his_o will_n to_o draw_v we_o to_o he_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o mean_a for_o we_o to_o put_v this_o

his_o word_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o that_o be_v the_o very_a mean_a whereby_o god_n draw_v we_o to_o he_o therefore_o whensoever_o we_o have_v god_n word_n preach_v unto_o we_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v a_o confirmation_n to_o assure_v we_o that_o he_o reign_v over_o us._n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n that_o we_o make_v our_o profit_n thereby_o see_v he_o grant_v we_o this_o grace_n and_o privilege_n â—â—â—_o eph._n â—â—â—_o which_o as_o we_o see_v be_v not_o common_a to_o all_o man_n and_o let_v we_o pray_v he_o to_o seal_v the_o doctrine_n in_o our_o heart_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n which_o we_o hear_v with_o our_o fleshy_a ear_n that_o see_v he_o have_v once_o call_v we_o to_o the_o know_v of_o he_o he_o will_v increase_v the_o same_o more_o

still_o give_v we_o courage_n for_o the_o time_n come_v to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v not_o doubt_v but_o he_o will_v hold_v on_o continual_o and_o that_o as_o we_o have_v find_v the_o force_n of_o

all_o our_o enterprise_n to_o good_a and_o happy_a issue_n so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v according_a to_o his_o will_n for_o without_o that_o we_o shall_v become_v too_o unthankful_a and_o churlish_a

without_o that_o what_o will_v become_v of_o our_o salvation_n true_a it_o be_v that_o god_n have_v show_v himself_o heretofore_o to_o be_v our_o guide_n and_o king_n and_o therein_o we_o have_v the_o

145.19_o psal._n 145.19_o have_v not_o thy_o god_n promise_v that_o he_o will_v pity_v such_o as_o call_v upon_o he_o yes_o in_o deed_n but_o i_o know_v not_o whether_o i_o be_v of_o that_o sort_n

whereby_o he_o utter_v his_o love_n towards_o we_o as_o be_v say_v already_o you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o cause_n why_o moses_n do_v in_o this_o place_n attribute_v the_o title_n of_o faithful_a unto_o god_n be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o when_o folk_n will_v be_v sure_a of_o their_o salvation_n they_o shall_v not_o enter_v into_o foolish_a imagination_n 1.7_o ro._n 5.10.18_o eph._n 1.7_o but_o

see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n concern_v the_o word_n faithful_n now_o for_o a_o conclusion_n moses_n add_v a_o threat_n say_v that_o god_n also_o will_v requite_v like_a for_o like_a to_o such_o as_o hate_v he_o yea_o even_o to_o their_o face_n &_o that_o he_o will_v not_o foreslow_v in_o this_o place_n there_o be_v some_o darksomnesse_n in_o the_o word_n of_o moses_n for_o

it_o seem_v that_o whereas_o he_o say_v they_o hate_v he_o to_o his_o face_n he_o mean_v to_o say_v that_o we_o spite_n god_n or_o hate_n god_n to_o his_o face_n when_o we_o fall_v out_o into_o

word_n be_v repete_v twice_o and_o in_o the_o end_n it_o appear_v that_o moses_n speak_v of_o the_o face_n of_o the_o transgressor_n no_o doubt_n but_o it_o be_v a_o change_v of_o the_o number_n as_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v common_o wont_a to_o do_v therefore_o the_o very_a meaning_n of_o it_o be_v that_o god_n will_v requite_v they_o to_o their_o face_n by_o make_v the_o hatred_n to_o

though_o it_o be_v say_v y_o it_o whereas_o he_o spare_v the_o wicked_a in_o this_o world_n it_o be_v to_o the_o end_n to_o overthrow_v they_o and_o destroy_v they_o utter_o afterward_o according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v by_o the_o prophet_n 12.3_o jer._n 12.3_o that_o god_n pamper_v those_o who_o he_o punish_v not_o out_o of_o hand_n like_z as_o man_n do_v fat_a a_o ox_n or_o a_o swine_n when_o

and_o true_o this_o be_v a_o good_a and_o profitable_a lesson_n but_o as_o touch_v the_o present_a place_n if_o we_o read_v all_o the_o word_n of_o moses_n throughout_o there_o be_v no_o darkness_n

it_o behove_v his_o favour_n to_o be_v as_o it_o be_v hide_v away_o in_o the_o dark_a that_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o god_n mean_v to_o show_v in_o this_o text_n in_o say_v thou_o shall_v choose_v

therefore_o that_o god_n to_o correct_v the_o fault_n of_o his_o people_n do_v hide_v away_o his_o favour_n for_o a_o time_n so_o as_o it_o be_v not_o manifest_o see_v but_o yet_o in_o the_o end_n

himself_o from_o we_o and_o seem_v not_o to_o perform_v his_o promise_n to_o we_o our_o own_o fault_n be_v the_o cause_n thereof_o for_o that_o we_o be_v froward_a and_o have_v pull_v back_o god_n

yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o must_v not_o be_v discourage_v but_o we_o must_v pray_v god_n that_o although_o he_o have_v defer_v the_o performance_n of_o his_o promise_n for_o a_o time_n yet_o we_o may_v not_o be_v utter_o bereave_v of_o they_o howsoever_o the_o world_n go_v but_o that_o after_o we_o have_v languish_v for_o a_o time_n and_o be_v chastise_v for_o our_o offence_n we_o return_v

be_v a_o defile_n of_o holy_a thing_n if_o heathen_a king_n reign_v over_o their_o like_a it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v wonder_v at_o for_o although_o some_o unbelieve_a king_n reign_v over_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n by_o tyranny_n 25.21_o 2._o kin._n 17.6_o &_o 25.21_o as_o be_v do_v by_o the_o babylonian_n and_o afterward_o by_o the_o king_n of_o assyria_n yet_o do_v it_o not_o follow_v but_o that_o there_o be_v always_o this_o exemption_n that_o god_n have_v still_o a_o peculiar_a kind_n of_o reign_v whereby_o he_o show_v as_o in_o a_o lookingglasse_n they_o y_fw-fr t_o people_n
