the_o child_n which_o not_o only_o imitate_v their_o parent_n in_o the_o like_a sin_n but_o do_v perhaps_o follow_v after_o clean_o contrary_a sin_n as_o i_o show_v unto_o you_o before_o and_o so_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o because_o the_o gentile_n become_v idolatrous_a and_o regard_v not_o to_o know_v god_n but_o run_v a_o whore_v after_o other_o god_n and_o so_o commit_v spiritual_a

this_o threaten_a be_v not_o only_o against_o those_o that_o imitate_v their_o parent_n vice_n and_o therefore_o i_o say_v that_o this_o threaten_n hold_v not_o so_o much_o in_o those_o which_o give_v themselves_o to_o imitate_v their_o father_n vice_n as_o in_o those_o which_o god_n in_o justice_n think_v good_a to_o punish_v for_o their_o father_n offence_n for_o in_o that_o he_o say_v i_o will_v visit_v the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n that_o be_v i_o will_v punish_v the_o father_n sin_n in_o his_o child_n i_o see_v not_o how_o the_o child_n can_v any_o way_n by_o declination_n from_o his_o father_n sin_n escape_v this_o infliction_n lay_v on_o he_o by_o god_n because_o as_o i_o collect_v it_o this_o punishment_n be_v not_o so_o much_o attract_v by_o the_o child_n imitation_n as_o inflict_v by_o god_n for_o the_o father_n transgression_n and_o be_v rather_o a_o punishment_n of_o the_o father_n sin_n lay_v upon_o the_o child_n than_o a_o punishment_n of_o any_o sin_n commit_v by_o the_o child_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o say_v he_o will_v visit_v those_o that_o imitate_v their_o father_n sin_n but_o he_o will_v visit_v the_o sin_n of_o those_o that_o hate_v he_o upon_o their_o child_n and_o yet_o as_o i_o say_v before_o this_o do_v not_o hold_v in_o all_o for_o we_o see_v often_o many_o godly_a child_n of_o wicked_a parent_n neither_o do_v this_o threaten_a pass_n at_o most_o or_o in_o the_o worse_o but_o to_o the_o three_o or_o four_o generation_n and_o sometime_o he_o stay_v his_o hand_n at_o the_o first_o and_o give_v plentiful_a grace_n to_o the_o immediate_a child_n of_o most_o idolatrous_a and_o impious_a parent_n as_o we_o see_v in_o josias_n and_o other_o before_o cite_v for_o 33.19_o exod._n 33.19_o he_o

this_o and_o yet_o remain_v just_a for_o four_o we_o be_v to_o understand_v that_o all_o punishment_n be_v as_o some_o say_v either_o 1._o paenall_n 2._o criminal_a or_o to_o speak_v more_o plain_o all_o punishment_n be_v either_o 1._o corporal_n 2._o spiritual_a for_o the_o first_o that_o for_o the_o father_n sin_n the_o child_n shall_v be_v temporal_o or_o corporal_o punish_v there_o be_v no_o

that_o die_v at_o the_o besiege_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v no_o injustice_n in_o god_n because_o otherwise_o we_o must_v take_v away_o all_o justice_n from_o man_n for_o we_o

his_o meaning_n be_v not_o to_o deny_v the_o withhold_a of_o his_o grace_n from_o the_o child_n of_o the_o wicked_a which_o be_v all_o that_o here_o he_o threaten_v but_o that_o he_o will_v not_o
