the_o flesh_n he_o will_v raise_v up_o christ_n to_o sit_v on_o his_o throne_n and_o to_o redeem_v mankind_n by_o he_o he_o see_v this_o before_o speak_v of_o the_o redemption_n of_o christ_n thou_o have_v redeem_a i_o o_o lord_n god_n of_o truth_n it_o be_v the_o usual_a stile_n of_o prophecy_n to_o speak_v of_o that_o as_o already_o past_o which_o be_v to_o come_v whereby_o be_v show_v forth_o

and_o fulfil_v as_o abraham_n see_v his_o day_n and_o be_v glad_a so_o here_o david_n see_v his_o day_n and_o be_v glad_a and_o true_o well_o they_o may_v for_o say_v the_o apostle_n in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o regenerate_v for_o we_o be_v by_o nature_n child_n of_o wrath_n as_o well_o as_o other_o so_o that_o abraham_n and_o david_n be_v child_n of_o wrath_n also_o and_o then_o both_o of_o they_o may_v well_o be_v glad_a to_o foresee_v by_o faith_n this_o jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v to_o redeem_v they_o from_o the_o wrath_n to_o come_v the_o word_n redemption_n be_v a_o relative_a
