A63106	A treatise proving by what our Saviour saith concerning swearing, St. Matth. 5. 34 first, that swearing is restrained and explained by him in point of religion and piety, and secondly, that it is not taken away quite in the concerns of civil right and policy : published for confinement unto those that are loose in this matter, and for liberty of conscience unto such as bind themselves where they have no need : the one's excess being a misbehaviour against religion, and the other defect, an errour against governemtn and policy / by an elderly man, a Master of Arts, of above forty years standing ...	Elderly man, a Master of Arts, of above forty years standing.	1682 (1682)	Wing T2097B; ESTC R20581	13,737	16

take_v not_o from_o the_o action_n of_o swear_v simple_o consider_v in_o itself_o but_o from_o the_o abuse_n of_o it_o among_o the_o jew_n partly_o through_o vain_a and_o customary_a oath_n and_o partly_o through_o indirect_a and_o devise_v form_n and_o fashion_n of_o swear_v in_o the_o very_a action_n of_o swear_v they_o neither_o teach_v nor_o do_v otherwise_o than_o as_o god_n himself_o do_v express_o command_v or_o at_o least_o allow_v they_o to_o do_v deut._n 6._o 13._o thou_o shall_v fear_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n and_o serve_v he_o and_o shall_v swear_v by_o his_o name_n from_o hence_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v our_o saviour_n business_n in_o this_o sermon_n be_v not_o to_o destroy_v but_o to_o reform_v and_o explain_v thing_n that_o he_o do_v not_o mean_a to_o take_v away_o swear_v itself_o but_o only_o the_o abuse_n of_o it_o that_o it_o be_v say_v by_o they_o of_o old_a time_n thou_o shall_v not_o forswear_v thyself_o it_o be_v right_a their_o fault_n be_v that_o they_o do_v not_o say_v also_o thou_o shall_v not_o swear_v at_o all_o by_o the_o heaven_n by_o the_o earth_n etc._n etc._n or_o use_v any_o other_o such_o indirect_a and_o devise_v kind_n of_o swear_v our_o saviour_n blame_v they_o not_o simple_o for_o swear_v but_o for_o swear_v in_o such_o manner_n as_o they_o do_v by_o heaven_n by_o the_o earth_n etc._n etc._n a_o manner_n inconsistent_a with_o so_o holy_a and_o reverend_a a_o thing_n as_o the_o make_n oath_n may_v be_v our_o saviour_n in_o say_v swear_v not_o at_o all_o neither_o by_o heaven_n nor_o by_o the_o earth_n etc._n etc._n do_v no_o more_o take_v away_o all_o manner_n of_o swear_v from_o among_o christian_n than_o he_o do_v all_o manner_n of_o dominion_n and_o authority_n from_o among_o his_o disciple_n in_o say_v unto_o they_o that_o in_o the_o exercise_n of_o those_o thing_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v among_o they_o as_o it_o be_v among_o the_o gentile_n matth._n 20._o 25_o 26._o there_o be_v a_o right_a

that_o our_o saviour_n say_v in_o this_o matter_n if_o it_o be_v it_o will_v be_v the_o hard_a on_o our_o side_n but_o that_o which_o he_o say_v be_v swear_v not_o at_o all_o neither_o by_o heaven_n

swear_v by_o one_o of_o they_o than_o by_o another_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n i_o say_v unto_o you_o in_o this_o kind_n swear_v not_o all_o the_o sentence_n of_o our_o saviour_n speech_n be_v to_o forbid_v altogether_o such_o devise_a form_n and_o fashion_n of_o customary_a and_o vain_a swear_v as_o be_v then_o in_o use_n among_o the_o jew_n and_o may_v be_v afterward_o among_o christian_n if_o he_o do_v not_o forbid_v they_o if_o our_o saviour_n sentence_n be_v full_a and_o whole_a in_o these_o word_n swear_v not_o at_o all_o then_o wherefore_o do_v he_o instance_n in_o such_o thing_n as_o man_n be_v wont_a to_o make_v vain_a oath_n by_o if_o he_o mean_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o swear_v at_o all_o then_o wherefore_o serve_v his_o instance_n in_o particular_n as_o by_o heaven_n by_o the_o earth_n etc._n etc._n be_v not_o that_o to_o show_v what_o manner_n of_o oath_n he_o will_v have_v to_o be_v forbear_v where_o care_n be_v take_v for_o the_o reform_n of_o the_o manner_n it_o imply_v that_o the_o thing_n itself_o be_v leave_v to_o stand_v certain_o our_o saviour_n sentence_n must_v needs_o go_v along_o with_o the_o instance_n that_o he_o give_v and_o what_o be_v it_o that_o he_o will_v have_v to_o be_v reform_v but_o that_o and_o the_o like_a manner_n of_o swear_v that_o he_o do_v instance_n in_o a_o reformation_n be_v a_o take_v away_o not_o of_o the_o substance_n of_o thing_n but_o of_o such_o evil_a quality_n and_o condition_n of_o manner_n as_o have_v be_v bring_v in_o upon_o they_o our_o saviour_n by_o the_o word_n above_o mention_v take_v not_o away_o swear_v itself_o but_o only_o that_o which_o be_v faulty_a and_o frivolous_a in_o it_o he_o let_v it_o be_v as_o he_o do_v in_o the_o case_n of_o matrimony_n as_o it_o be_v from_o the_o beginning_n but_o not_o as_o man_n device_n make_v it_o to_o be_v in_o process_n of_o time_n if_o a_o physician_n forbid_v his_o patient_a either_o to_o eat_v gross_a meat_n or_o to_o drink_v wine_n say_v neither_o eat_v gross_a meat_n nor_o drink_v wine_n at_o all_o do_v he_o therefore_o forbid_v he_o altogether_o either_o to_o eat_v or_o to_o drink_v do_v not_o his_o instance_n in_o gross_a meat_n and_o wine_n imply_v that_o he_o leave_v he_o liberty_n to_o eat_v and_o drink_v otherwise_o restrain_v he_o only_o in_o those_o thing_n that_o he_o do_v instance_n in_o namely_o gross_a meat_n and_o wine_n so_o here_o our_o saviour_n instance_v in_o what_o manner_n of_o swear_v be_v to_o be_v forbear_v imply_v that_o swear_v itself_o be_v leave_v to_o remain_v but_o of_o those_o several_a form_n or_o fashion_n of_o swear_v devise_v by_o man_n there_o be_v not_o one_o allow_v more_o than_o other_o to_o the_o utter_a undo_n of_o all_o these_o our_o saviour_n say_v swear_v not_o at_o all_o moreover_o let_v i_o compare_v this_o instance_n concern_v swear_v with_o such_o instance_n of_o other_o thing_n as_o our_o saviour_n give_v to_o the_o jew_n to_o show_v how_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v abuse_v among_o they_o the_o first_o be_v concern_v murder_n you_o have_v hear_v say_v our_o saviour_n how_o it_o have_v be_v say_v by_o they_o of_o old_a time_n thou_o shall_v not_o kill_v but_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o whosoever_o shall_v be_v angry_a with_o his_o brother_n without_o a_o cause_n etc._n etc._n if_o our_o saviour_n have_v say_v whosoever_o shall_v be_v angry_a with_o his_o brother_n and_o no_o more_o shall_v be_v in_o danger_n etc._n etc._n we_o may_v think_v the_o very_a passion_n of_o anger_n to_o be_v forbid_v quite_o but_o in_o say_v whosoever_o shall_v be_v angry_a with_o his_o brother_n without_o a_o cause_n shall_v be_v in_o danger_n etc._n etc._n we_o see_v that_o the_o prohibition_n lie_v not_o against_o anger_n itself_o but_o against_o such_o anger_n as_o be_v without_o a_o cause_n the_o passion_n of_o anger_n be_v as_o human_a as_o any_o other_o passion_n may_v be_v a_o man_n may_v be_v angry_a so_o as_o not_o to_o sin_v in_o it_o say_v the_o apostle_n be_v angry_a and_o sin_n not_o my_o argument_n here_o hence_o be_v that_o as_o to_o be_v angry_a for_o just_a cause_n be_v no_o sin_n so_o neither_o be_v it_o to_o swear_v upon_o just_a ground_n and_o in_o a_o due_a manner_n the_o second_o instance_n be_v in_o the_o case_n of_o adultery_n say_v our_o saviour_n you_o have_v hear_v by_o they_o of_o old_a time_n thou_o shall_v not_o commit_v adultery_n etc._n etc._n but_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o whosoever_o look_v on_o a_o woman_n to_o lust_n after_o she_o etc._n etc._n to_o look_v on_o a_o woman_n simple_o consider_v in_o itself_o be_v no_o more_o harm_n than_o to_o look_v on_o some_o other_o thing_n the_o harm_n be_v to_o look_v on_o she_o so_o as_o to_o lust_n after_o she_o and_o that_o adulterous_o too_o now_o who_o know_v not_o that_o our_o saviour_n restraint_n lie_v not_o against_o that_o which_o be_v innocent_a but_o only_o against_o that_o which_o be_v harmful_a and_o evil_a the_o three_o instance_n be_v in_o the_o case_n of_o divorcement_n wherein_o our_o saviour_n say_v it_o have_v be_v say_v whosoever_o shall_v put_v away_o his_o wife_n let_v he_o give_v she_o a_o bill_n of_o divorcement_n but_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o whosoever_o shall_v put_v away_o his_o wife_n save_v for_o the_o cause_n of_o fornication_n cause_v she_o to_o commit_v adultery_n etc._n etc._n here_o our_o saviour_n do_v not_o absolute_o forbid_v man_n to_o put_v away_o their_o wife_n but_o to_o put_v they_o away_o in_o such_o manner_n as_o they_o be_v wont_a to_o do_v viz._n light_o either_o for_o no_o cause_n at_o all_o or_o else_o for_o no_o such_o cause_n as_o may_v deserve_v unto_o their_o wife_n so_o great_a a_o discomfort_n &_o there_o be_v no_o such_o cause_n save_v the_o cause_n of_o fornication_n our_o saviour_n restrain_v it_o only_o unto_o that_o so_o then_o when_o as_o in_o the_o three_o instance_n go_v before_o our_o saviour_n do_v not_o abolish_v the_o thing_n instance_a in_o but_o restrain_v they_o forbid_v they_o not_o absolute_o but_o conditional_o in_o divers_a respect_n bind_v and_o lose_v the_o same_o thing_n
