again_o it_o be_v allege_v that_o abraham_n child_n be_v circumcise_v because_o they_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n so_o that_o the_o word_n because_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o the_o child_n be_v circumcise_v because_o they_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n or_o because_o they_o be_v abraham_n seed_n which_o i_o deny_v my_o reason_n be_v first_o if_o they_o be_v circumcise_v because_o they_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n then_o only_a isaac_n be_v to_o be_v circumcise_v because_o he_o only_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n as_o be_v clear_a gen._n 17._o 19_o my_o covenant_n will_v i_o establish_v with_o he_o for_o a_o everlasting_a covenant_n now_o ishmael_n and_o the_o son_n of_o keturah_n be_v the_o son_n of_o abraham_n yet_o be_v they_o not_o under_o the_o covenant_n second_o whereas_o some_o seem_v to_o give_v the_o reason_n because_o they_o be_v abraham_n seed_n than_o the_o pupil_n or_o servant_n which_o be_v bear_v in_o the_o house_n or_o buy_v for_o money_n be_v not_o to_o be_v circumcise_v but_o the_o pupil_n and_o servant_n that_o be_v bear_v in_o the_o house_n or_o buy_v with_o money_n be_v circumcise_v as_o well_o as_o abraham_n child_n bear_v of_o his_o body_n therefore_o they_o be_v not_o circumcise_v because_o they_o be_v abraham_n seed_n three_o if_o they_o be_v circumcise_v because_o they_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n than_o all_o these_o child_n and_o servant_n be_v under_o the_o covenant_n and_o so_o shall_v have_v have_v right_a to_o the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n as_o well_o as_o isaac_n and_o so_o shall_v have_v keep_v circumsion_n in_o their_o posterity_n for_o ever_o which_o thing_n be_v not_o do_v by_o any_o but_o isaack_n posterity_n but_o now_o to_o give_v a_o reason_n why_o circumcision_n be_v
