particular_a order_n and_o first_o because_o the_o text_n say_v that_o the_o scripture_n say_v to_o pharaoh_n for_o this_o purpose_n have_v i_o raise_v thou_o up_o that_o i_o may_v show_v my_o power_n in_o thou_o i_o shall_v show_v the_o text_n and_o the_o cause_n why_o the_o lord_n raise_v up_o pharaoh_n and_o first_o see_v the_o text_n exod._n 9.16_o 17._o the_o which_o be_v thus_o read_v and_o in_o very_a deed_n for_o this_o cause_n have_v i_o raise_v thou_o up_o for_o to_o show_v in_o thou_o my_o power_n and_o that_o my_o name_n may_v be_v declare_v throughout_o all_o the_o earth_n as_o yet_o thou_o exalt_a thyself_o against_o my_o people_n that_o thou_o will_v not_o let_v they_o go_v from_o which_o word_n we_o may_v see_v that_o there_o be_v a_o cause_n wherefore_o the_o lord_n raisedup_fw-fr pharaoh_n and_o that_o be_v from_o these_o two_o great_a evil_n first_o because_o pharaoh_n have_v persecute_v his_o people_n by_o lay_v great_a burden_n on_o they_o under_o which_o they_o grievous_o groan_v insomuch_o as_o their_o sigh_a groan_n and_o cry_n go_v up_o into_o the_o ear_n of_o the_o lord_z of_o host_n beside_o his_o murder_v their_o poor_a innocent_a babe_n and_o only_o for_o this_o cause_n because_o he_o see_v the_o lord_n prosper_v they_o and_o they_o do_v multiply_v and_o second_o the_o cause_n why_o the_o lord_n raise_v he_o up_o be_v for_o his_o contempt_n in_o say_v when_o the_o lord_n send_v admonition_n to_o he_o exod._n 5.2_o who_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o i_o shall_v obey_v his_o voice_n to_o let_v israel_n go_v i_o know_v not_o the_o lord_n neither_o will_v i_o let_v israel_n go_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v in_o contempt_n of_o the_o lord_n what_o be_v it_o to_o i_o you_o moses_n and_o aaron_n what_o the_o lord_n say_v what_o be_v he_o that_o will_v assume_v such_o authority_n as_o to_o command_v i_o to_o let_v you_o go_v i_o know_v he_o not_o nor_o will_v i_o take_v notice_n what_o he_o say_v by_o way_n of_o command_n neither_o will_v i_o let_v you_o go_v for_o this_o cause_n the_o lord_n raise_v he_o up_o that_o pharaoh_n may_v see_v he_o to_o be_v a_o god_n of_o power_n as_o if_o the_o lord_n shall_v have_v say_v will_v pharaoh_n strive_v with_o his_o maker_n or_o do_v he_o suppose_v that_o he_o be_v strong_a than_o he_o for_o this_o cause_n i_o will_v try_v the_o title_n with_o he_o i_o will_v raise_v he_o up_o and_o harden_v he_o that_o he_o may_v try_v the_o best_a of_o his_o valour_n and_o in_o as_o much_o as_o he_o will_v not_o know_v i_o here_o yet_o i_o will_v make_v he_o to_o feel_v and_o know_v my_o power_n in_o the_o read_v sea_n and_o thus_o the_o apostle_n make_v use_v of_o this_o of_o pharaoh_n as_o a_o precedent_n to_o israel_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v o_o house_n of_o israel_n take_v heed_n of_o strive_v with_o your_o maker_n in_o choose_v of_o your_o own_o way_n and_o persecute_v his_o people_n as_o you_o have_v do_v his_o prophet_n and_o also_o his_o son_n yet_o know_v that_o there_o be_v none_o that_o ever_o harden_v themselves_o against_o god_n which_o go_v unpunished_a you_o may_v take_v notice_n how_o the_o lord_n deal_v with_o pharaoh_n and_o the_o lord_n rail_v he_o up_o on_o purpose_n to_o show_v all_o man_n and_o more_o especial_o you_o o_o house_n of_o israel_n what_o misery_n will_v befall_v such_o as_o choose_v their_o own_o way_n and_o harden_v themselves_o against_o god_n in_o not_o hear_v and_o obey_v of_o his_o voice_n obj._n but_o peradventure_o some_o will_v object_v and_o say_v that_o god_n raise_v up_o pharaoh_n and_o harden_v his_o heart_n not_o for_o any_o evil_n he_o have_v do_v but_o because_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v all_o man_n know_v that_o he_o will_v reprobate_v some_o and_o harden_v their_o heart_n not_o for_o their_o personal_a sin_n but_o that_o they_o may_v do_v evil_a and_o so_o he_o be_v just_a in_o punish_v of_o they_o ans_fw-fr let_v the_o objection_n lie_v this_o or_o any_o way_n in_o this_o nature_n it_o will_v appear_v very_o far_o from_o truth_n it_o have_v neither_o mercy_n or_o true_a justice_n in_o it_o first_o by_o the_o way_n it_o it_o very_o strange_a that_o god_n shall_v proclaim_v himself_o throughout_o the_o earth_n to_o be_v a_o god_n slow_a to_o anger_n and_o of_o great_a kindness_n and_o not_o willing_a to_o punish_v or_o afflict_v the_o child_n of_o man_n and_o

be_v no_o mercy_n or_o true_a justice_n in_o it_o and_o also_o to_o offer_v some_o objection_n of_o the_o same_o nature_n and_o so_o pass_v to_o the_o next_o verse_n and_o first_o that_o there_o be_v no_o mercy_n in_o it_o be_v clear_a because_o mercy_n respect_n and_o pity_v man_n which_o be_v in_o misery_n especial_o when_o they_o be_v make_v so_o not_o of_o their_o own_o will_n but_o make_v

that_o not_o of_o their_o own_o will_n or_o personal_a fault_n but_o by_o reason_n of_o adam_n that_o make_v they_o subject_a thereunto_o so_o than_o if_o the_o lord_n leave_v such_o in_o misery_n and_o not_o put_v they_o in_o a_o state_n of_o salvation_n there_o be_v never_o any_o mercy_n show_v they_o and_o then_o his_o mercy_n be_v not_o above_o or_o over_o all_o his_o work_n for_o man_n glory_n in_o creation_n be_v not_o of_o god_n mercy_n but_o of_o his_o love_n for_o mercy_n oppose_v misery_n but_o misery_n be_v not_o before_o the_o fall_n therefore_o no_o place_n for_o mercy_n where_o there_o be_v no_o misery_n obj._n and_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v say_v god_n mercy_n be_v to_o all_o man_n in_o raise_v they_o from_o the_o dead_a answ_n i_o answer_v and_o say_v that_o there_o be_v as_o much_o mercy_n show_v to_o the_o reprobate_n in_o raise_v they_o from_o the_o dead_a if_o your_o opinion_n be_v true_a as_o there_o be_v show_v to_o a_o man_n that_o be_v take_v from_o

how_o this_o will_v appear_v to_o be_v true_a or_o pure_a justice_n i_o know_v not_o because_o it_o be_v just_a as_o if_o a_o man_n that_o have_v a_o quarrel_n against_o his_o servant_n shall_v appoint_v he_o a_o great_a day_n work_v beyond_o what_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v by_o the_o judgement_n of_o all_o man_n live_v to_o that_o end_n he_o may_v take_v a_o advantage_n against_o he_o and_o then_o punish_v he_o because_o he_o do_v not_o do_v it_o how_o this_o be_v pure_a justice_n i_o know_v not_o again_o how_o it_o can_v be_v pure_a justice_n in_o god_n to_o command_v such_o to_o

therefore_o such_o thing_n as_o aforesaid_a be_v not_o in_o god_n its_o only_a man_n gross_a mistake_n in_o scripture_n obj._n but_o again_o peradventure_o some_o will_v object_v and_o say_v do_v
