my_o land_n for_o the_o land_n bestow_v by_o my_o providence_n upon_o such_o man_n unto_o their_o own_o possession_n as_o a_o prey_n unto_o themselves_o with_o the_o joy_n of_o their_o heart_n and_o with_o despiteful_a mind_n 3._o observe_v that_o god_n in_o punish_v wicked_a rebel_n do_v observe_v the_o law_n of_o retaliation_n as_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o the_o king_n god_n vicegerent_n to_o do_v in_o case_n of_o like_a nature_n because_o they_o be_v man_n of_o blood_n therefore_o they_o shall_v meet_v with_o blood_n because_o thou_o have_v not_o hate_v blood_n say_v the_o lord_n even_o blood_n shall_v pursue_v thou_o and_o again_o i_o will_v even_o do_v to_o thou_o according_a to_o thy_o anger_n and_o envy_n unto_o they_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v i_o will_v enable_v they_o who_o thou_o do_v hate_v and_o envy_n and_o who_o land_n and_o revenue_n thou_o do_v covet_v to_o deal_v so_o with_o thou_o as_o thou_o in_o the_o despitefulness_n of_o thy_o heart_n do_v purpose_n and_o resolve_v to_o deal_v with_o they_o and_o indeed_o you_o may_v observe_v by_o the_o way_n that_o though_o god_n do_v not_o usual_o employ_v his_o own_o people_n as_o instrument_n of_o wrath_n to_o punish_v but_o rather_o of_o mercy_n to_o comfort_n yet_o he_o employ_v israel_n in_o special_a to_o punish_v edom_n see_v ezek._n 25.12_o 14._o because_o edom_n have_v deal_v against_o the_o house_n of_o judah_n unbidden_a and_o have_v take_v vengeance_n for_o some_o conceive_a wrong_n and_o have_v great_o offend_v and_o revenge_v himself_o upon_o they_o whereas_o be_v their_o brethren_n and_o superious_a they_o shall_v rather_o if_o wrong_v by_o they_o have_v refer_v the_o same_o to_o god_n therefore_o say_v the_o lord_n i_o will_v stretch_v out_o my_o hand_n against_o edom._n and_o i_o will_v lay_v my_o vengeance_n upon_o edom_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o my_o people_n israel_n and_o they_o shall_v do_v in_o edom_n according_a to_o my_o anger_n and_o according_a to_o my_o fury_n and_o they_o shall_v know_v my_o vengeance_n say_v the_o lord_n god_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v 1._o because_o it_o be_v according_a to_o the_o course_n of_o ordinary_a providence_n to_o punish_v rebellious_a subject_n by_o their_o own_o prince_n against_o who_o they_o do_v rebel_v 2._o because_o it_o be_v according_a to_o ordinary_a justice_n that_o they_o who_o injurious_o encroach_v upon_o other_o man_n right_n shall_v forfeit_v their_o own_o as_o a_o punishment_n for_o their_o injustice_n to_o these_o very_a person_n qui_fw-la invadunt_fw-la aliena_fw-la merentur_fw-la perdere_fw-la sua_fw-la and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v by_o obediah_n that_o the_o house_n of_o jacob_n shall_v be_v a_o fire_n and_o the_o house_n of_o joseph_n a_o flame_n and_o the_o house_n of_o esau_n for_o stubble_n and_o they_o shall_v kindle_v in_o they_o and_o devour_v they_o yea_o they_o shall_v possess_v their_o possession_n even_o the_o mount_n of_o esau_n and_o saviour_n shall_v come_v out_o of_o mount_n zion_n to_o judge_v the_o mount_n of_o esau_n the_o application_n of_o these_o thing_n i_o leave_v to_o yourselves_o 4._o there_o be_v one_o thing_n more_o that_o i_o will_v have_v you_o observe_v from_o that_o place_n before_o quote_v ezek._n 35._o the_o last_o word_n where_o god_n tell_v edom_n that_o he_o will_v make_v himself_o know_v among_o israel_n by_o his_o judgement_n upon_o he_o i_o will_v make_v myself_o know_v among_o they_o when_o i_o have_v judge_v thou_o for_o indeed_o god_n be_v not_o know_v or_o acknowledge_v before_o as_o he_o ought_v to_o have_v be_v among_o they_o the_o israelite_n be_v grow_v a_o most_o deboish_v profane_a impudent_a and_o ungodly_a people_n the_o major_a part_n of_o they_o which_o make_v the_o lord_n give_v they_o up_o to_o be_v punish_v by_o the_o chaldean_n but_o by_o his_o give_n into_o his_o israel_n hand_n the_o rebellious_a bloody_a treacherous_a edomite_n who_o have_v no_o call_v nor_o cause_n to_o war_n upon_o they_o or_o to_o join_v with_o the_o chaldean_n against_o they_o the_o lord_n do_v mean_a so_o to_o gain_v upon_o their_o heart_n and_o spirit_n that_o they_o shall_v learn_v thereby_o to_o know_v he_o true_o and_o for_o after_o time_n to_o serve_v he_o better_a then_o ever_o they_o have_v do_v before_o in_o humility_n and_o holiness_n and_o true_o friend_n i_o have_v a_o hope_n that_o when_o the_o great_a and_o mighty_a god_n shall_v have_v subdue_v under_o your_o power_n these_o edomite_n our_o enemy_n who_o be_v so_o full_a of_o spite_n and_o so_o thirsty_a after_o blood_n and_o shall_v have_v bring_v on_o their_o head_n what_o themselves_o do_v purpose_n against_o other_o you_o will_v all_o gain_v more_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o serve_v fear_v honour_n and_o obey_v he_o in_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n more_o than_o ever_o you_o yet_o do_v in_o all_o your_o life_n the_o lord_n sanctify_v the_o observance_n of_o his_o judgement_n so_o unto_o you_o that_o you_o may_v and_o thus_o have_v you_o see_v the_o certainty_n and_o in_o part_n the_o severity_n of_o the_o judgement_n which_o shall_v be_v execute_v upon_o rebel_n evidence_v now_o if_o you_o demand_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o god_n of_o mercy_n and_o bowel_n shall_v be_v so_o severe_a reason_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v no_o such_o severity_n in_o god_n to_o beat_v man_n with_o their_o own_o rod_n to_o do_v to_o they_o according_a as_o they_o determine_v to_o do_v to_o other_o beside_o it_o be_v but_o equity_n and_o justice_n to_o proportionate_a punishment_n in_o weight_n and_o measure_n according_a to_o the_o height_n or_o weight_n of_o sin_n but_o there_o be_v no_o such_o sin_n as_o rebellion_n this_o be_v ingens_fw-la et_fw-la supremum_fw-la scelus_fw-la the_o most_o huge_a and_o high_a sin_n and_o therefore_o do_v merit_v the_o sharp_a and_o sure_a punishment_n rebellion_n be_v a_o sin_n that_o strike_v at_o god_n own_o self_n at_o the_o face_n of_o majesty_n there_o be_v no_o such_o express_a image_n of_o god_n in_o the_o world_n as_o a_o king_n be_v every_o christian_a be_v the_o image_n of_o christ_n as_o man_n every_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v or_o aught_o to_o be_v the_o image_n of_o christ_n as_o mediator_n but_o a_o king_n be_v the_o image_n of_o christ_n as_o god_n and_o to_o rebel_v against_o a_o king_n be_v to_o strike_v at_o the_o face_n of_o christ_n as_o god_n which_o be_v more_o than_o they_o that_o crucify_v he_o dare_v dare_v to_o do_v 2.8_o for_o have_v they_o know_v say_v the_o great_a apostle_n they_o will_v not_o have_v crucify_v the_o lord_n of_o glory_n therefore_o no_o marvel_n if_o a_o cruel_a messenger_n be_v send_v against_o a_o rebel_n if_o severe_a and_o sharp_a punishment_n be_v the_o proper_a portion_n of_o such_o man_n perhaps_o now_o you_o expect_v that_o by_o way_n of_o use_n i_o shall_v stir_v you_o up_o to_o be_v cruel_a use_v but_o noble_a gentleman_n and_o soldier_n if_o i_o shall_v do_v so_o i_o shall_v forget_v myself_o to_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o prince_n of_o mercy_n and_o to_o be_v a_o subject_a of_o a_o most_o merciful_a king_n who_o meek_a and_o gentle_a spirit_n as_o we_o all_o honour_n and_o admire_v so_o shall_v we_o strive_v to_o imitate_v and_o i_o bless_v god_n for_o it_o i_o can_v never_o yet_o speak_v that_o language_n of_o kill_v slay_v and_o destroy_v which_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o rebel_n side_n be_v so_o skilful_a in_o i_o dare_v never_o excite_v man_n to_o fight_v up_o to_o the_o back_n in_o blood_n the_o spirit_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v no_o bloody_a spirit_n we_o say_v the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o himself_o and_o all_o true_a minister_n have_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n which_o endeavour_v the_o salvation_n not_o destruction_n of_o man_n wherefore_o i_o beseech_v you_o give_v i_o leave_v as_o the_o minister_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o your_o soul_n good_a to_o propound_v a_o few_o such_o
