you_o be_v without_o christ_n separate_v from_o the_o government_n of_o israel_n and_o stranger_n from_o the_o promise_n but_o metaphorical_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o allusion_n to_o natural_a

that_o he_o ascribe_v death_n unto_o uncircumcision_n he_o do_v it_o not_o as_o unto_o the_o cause_n but_o as_o to_o the_o badge_n or_o mark_n thereof_o as_o he_o do_v in_o that_o other_o place_n to_o

by_o only_a forgiveness_n of_o sin_n but_o in_o this_o place_n he_o do_v peculiar_o make_v mention_n thereof_o because_o free_a reconciliation_n with_o god_n which_o overthrow_v righteousness_n of_o

god_n hold_v we_o as_o it_o be_v bind_v so_o that_o we_o can_v deny_v our_o guiltiness_n or_o debt_n now_o he_o say_v we_o have_v so_o be_v deliver_v from_o guiltiness_n that_o the_o handwriting_n also_o have_v be_v put_v out_o that_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v extant_a in_o memory_n handwriting_n we_o use_v to_o subscribe_v our_o name_n or_o mark_v with_o our_o hand_n whereby_o we_o ratify_v

of_o christ_n which_o as_o yet_o urge_v ceremony_n as_o though_o we_o be_v not_o by_o he_o acquit_v and_o set_v free_a for_o they_o restore_v to_o the_o handwriting_n the_o force_n which_o it_o have_v that_o they_o may_v still_o keep_v we_o endanger_v this_o therefore_o be_v a_o true_a reason_n in_o divinity_n to_o prove_v the_o abolish_n of_o ceremony_n because_o if_o christ_n have_v full_o and_o perfect_o redeem_v we_o from_o guiltiness_n and_o out_o of_o danger_n he_o ought_v also_o to_o take_v away_o the_o memorial_n of_o the_o obligation_n whereby_o the_o conscience_n may_v be_v at_o

manifestlye_o prove_v that_o paul_n in_o this_o place_n speak_v of_o ceremony_n and_o therefore_o better_o do_v they_o which_o restrain_v it_o to_o ceremony_n but_o in_o this_o point_n they_o also_o

indeed_o neither_o yet_o do_v they_o aptelye_o apply_v this_o similitude_n to_o the_o text_n but_o the_o true_a reason_n be_v that_o all_o the_o ceremony_n of_o moses_n have_v with_o they_o some_o

whatsoever_o be_v than_o do_v do_v show_v forth_o nothing_o else_o but_o a_o obligation_n or_o bind_v grace_n be_v after_o a_o sort_n suspend_v and_o defer_v till_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n not_o that_o the_o father_n be_v exclude_v from_o the_o same_o but_o they_o have_v no_o present_a show_n thereof_o in_o their_o ceremony_n for_o they_o do_v see_v nothing_o beside_o the_o blood_n of_o
