they_o shall_v be_v so_o blind_a as_o not_o to_o see_v the_o intent_n of_o god_n in_o all_o those_o dispensation_n as_o have_v reference_n to_o christ_n for_o it_o be_v upon_o this_o ground_n that_o israel_n be_v reject_v of_o god_n and_o blind_v because_o they_o will_v not_o see_v christ_n the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n and_o that_o now_o the_o just_a shall_v live_v by_o believe_v as_o rom._n 1._o
