they_o this_o be_v one_o strong_a and_o invincible_a reason_n second_o we_o have_v good_a reason_n of_o every_o derivation_n as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v three_o the_o derive_n of_o the_o word_n

offer_v any_o wrong_n or_o disgrace_n to_o any_o four_o the_o greek_a word_n {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o by_o which_o the_o septuagint_n in_o their_o greek_a translation_n do_v express_v the_o hebrew_n word_n berith_n and_o which_o the_o evangelist_n and_o apostle_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n do_v use_v to_o signify_v a_o covenant_n be_v derive_v of_o the_o greek_a word_n {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o which_o have_v divers_a of_o the_o signification_n of_o the_o hebrew_n word_n of_o which_o berith_n be_v

friend_n thus_o the_o greek_a which_o the_o apostle_n use_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n to_o signify_v a_o covenant_n to_o express_v the_o hebrew_n word_n berith_n which_o be_v use_v in_o the_o law_n

of_o a_o covenant_n be_v in_o general_a second_o to_o justify_v the_o divers_a acceptation_n of_o the_o word_n and_o to_o show_v the_o nature_n of_o every_o word_n in_o particular_a and_o so_o to_o make_v way_n for_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o agreement_n and_o difference_n between_o the_o old_a and_o new_a covenant_n first_o there_o we_o see_v that_o this_o word_n signify_v all_o covenant_n

general_a and_o what_o thing_n be_v thereunto_o require_v first_o every_o true_a covenant_n presuppose_v a_o division_n or_o separation_n second_o it_o comprehend_v in_o it_o a_o mutual_a promise_v and_o bind_v between_o two_o distinct_a party_n three_o there_o must_v be_v faithful_a deal_n without_o fraud_n or_o dissemble_v on_o both_o side_n four_o this_o must_v be_v betweeene_v choice_a

between_o they_o all_o these_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o signification_n of_o the_o word_n from_o which_o berith_n be_v derive_v but_o i_o hold_v it_o not_o so_o needful_a to_o stand_v upon_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o covenant_n in_o general_n i_o therefore_o come_v with_o speed_n to_o the_o divers_a acceptation_n of_o the_o word_n and_o to_o the_o description_n of_o every_o special_a and_o
