scandalous_a sin_n but_o the_o first_o rise_v of_o it_o be_v his_o unconscionable_a walk_n with_o god_n in_o secret_a as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n say_v of_o the_o gentile_n rom._n 1._o 20._o to_o

already_o i_o come_v to_o reason_n of_o it_o why_o it_o be_v so_o first_o he_o send_v sharp_a affliction_n on_o they_o because_o he_o love_v they_o they_o be_v such_o as_o belong_v to_o he_o and_o 1_o the_o ground_n of_o this_o reason_n be_v because_o ira_fw-la est_fw-la tam_fw-la ex_fw-la amore_fw-la quam_fw-la ex_fw-la odio_fw-la anger_n be_v as_o much_o out_o of_o love_n as_o hatred_n it_o be_v a_o true_a rule_n though_o it_o may_v seem_v a_o paradox_n because_o when_o one_o love_v another_o he_o desire_v much_o from_o the_o party_n belove_v and_o expect_v much_o from_o he_o and_o therefore_o a_o cross_n and_o stubborn_a action_n from_o such_o a_o one_o provoke_v more_o to_o anger_n than_o from_o any_o other_o man_n as_o from_o a_o son_n from_o a_o friend_n from_o a_o wife_n it_o wound_v more_o and_o therefore_o god_n say_v of_o himself_o that_o he_o be_v a_o jealous_a god_n jealousy_n be_v a_o mix_a affection_n of_o love_n and_o anger_n the_o meaning_n be_v if_o i_o find_v my_o people_n affection_n steal_v out_o from_o i_o i_o be_o present_o affect_v as_o a_o jealous_a husband_n use_v to_o be_v in_o such_o a_o case_n and_o there_o be_v no_o anger_n to_o that_o nor_o none_o soon_o stir_v god_n will_v endure_v ten_o time_n as_o much_o from_o another_o but_o when_o one_o that_o he_o have_v take_v into_o covenant_n with_o he_o offend_v he_o he_o be_v angry_a and_o will_v therefore_o be_v sure_a to_o send_v some_o sharp_a affliction_n on_o he_o which_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o his_o anger_n for_o his_o anger_n be_v not_o in_o vain_a second_o he_o do_v it_o that_o his_o name_n may_v not_o be_v blaspheme_v that_o be_v the_o reason_n he_o give_v why_o he_o 2._o punish_v david_n when_o he_o commit_v adultery_n for_o the_o lord_n must_v of_o necessity_n do_v it_o for_o their_o sake_n that_o stand_v by_o and_o look_v on_o to_o show_v to_o they_o that_o he_o can_v endure_v such_o thing_n no_o not_o in_o his_o own_o people_n three_o because_o he_o have_v say_v that_o he_o will_v be_v sanctify_v of_o all_o that_o draw_v near_o to_o he_o he_o will_v have_v they_o 3._o know_v that_o he_o be_v a_o holy_a god_n hate_v iniquity_n and_o that_o none_o shall_v

lord_n have_v separate_v you_o and_o you_o draw_v near_o to_o himself_o say_v moses_n to_o they_o and_o that_o in_o the_o near_a manner_n to_o do_v service_n as_o priest_n to_o offer_v sacrifice_n and_o you_o be_v among_o the_o head_n of_o the_o people_n and_o therefore_o he_o will_v not_o forbear_v you_o other_o that_o be_v afar_o off_o it_o may_v be_v god_n will_v long_o and_o far_o forbear_v but_o other_o that_o be_v sanctify_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o draw_v near_o to_o he_o in_o profession_n and_o in_o the_o opinion_n of_o other_o and_o also_o so_o indeed_o of_o those_o god_n will_v

with_o profane_a heart_n four_o because_o they_o be_v his_o people_n among_o who_o 4_o he_o walk_v and_o with_o who_o he_o dwell_v 2_o cor._n 6._o and_o the_o three_o last_o verse_n and_o the_o

will_v not_o but_o if_o we_o do_v it_o by_o half_n as_o that_o be_v our_o fault_n we_o leave_v many_o balk_n behind_o we_o than_o god_n always_o come_v with_o affliction_n yet_o then_o the_o less_o that_o you_o leave_v behind_o unplow_a the_o less_o will_v god_n afflict_v you_o if_o you_o humble_v yourselves_o thorough_o you_o shall_v escape_v except_o only_o in_o the_o case_n of_o scandal_n and_o then_o god_n must_v needs_o do_v it_o for_o their_o sake_n that_o look_v on_o as_o in_o david_n god_n will_v have_v all_o the_o world_n see_v his_o punishment_n on_o he_o as_o well_o as_o they_o

learn_v from_o hence_o to_o fear_v the_o lord_n to_o tremble_v at_o his_o word_n and_o see_v he_o will_v endure_v no_o uncleanness_n 1_o in_o his_o own_o people_n stand_v in_o awe_n and_o sin_n not_o
