in_o these_o word_n say_v bless_a be_v the_o womb_n that_o bear_v thou_o and_o the_o pap_n which_o give_v thou_o suck_v though_o the_o pharisee_n will_v not_o call_v he_o bless_v yet_o this_o young_a

and_o thus_o i_o have_v bring_v you_o to_o the_o word_n of_o my_o text_n but_o before_o i_o come_v to_o give_v you_o the_o doctrine_n which_o the_o word_n will_v afford_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o speak_v something_o concern_v the_o young_a woman_n salute_v of_o christ_n after_o this_o manner_n the_o word_n which_o she_o speak_v be_v a_o common_a proverb_n among_o the_o jew_n when_o any_o man_n have_v do_v a_o thing_n commendable_a that_o be_v excellent_a and_o extraordinary_a they_o will_v present_o cry_v out_o to_o he_o bless_a be_v the_o womb_n that_o bear_v thou_o and_o the_o pap_n that_o give_v the_o suck_n from_o whence_o i_o will_v note_v to_o you_o thus_o much_o doct_v that_o good_a child_n be_v a_o great_a blessing_n and_o commendation_n to_o their_o parent_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o you_o read_v so_o often_o in_o scripture_n what_o a_o great_a blessing_n it_o be_v for_o a_o father_n to_o be_v the_o father_n of_o a_o good_a son_n and_o for_o a_o mother_n to_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o a_o good_a child_n in_o prov._n 10.1_o &_o 15.20_o and_o on_o the_o contrary_a what_o a_o great_a curse_n it_o be_v for_o parent_n to_o bring_v forth_o wicked_a child_n into_o the_o world_n a_o wicked_a child_n be_v a_o shame_n to_o his_o father_n and_o a_o heaviness_n to_o his_o mother_n that_o bring_v he_o into_o the_o world_n use_v the_o use_v i_o will_v have_v you_o make_v of_o this_o doctrine_n be_v this_o you_o that_o have_v good_a child_n that_o be_v instrument_n of_o the_o praise_n and_o glory_n of_o god_n bless_v his_o name_n for_o they_o and_o you_o that_o have_v bad_a child_n look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o stroke_n of_o god_n heavy_a hand_n upon_o you_o but_o this_o be_v only_o a_o point_n by_o the_o way_n from_o the_o woman_n speak_v thus_o of_o christ_n bless_a be_v the_o womb_n that_o bear_v thou_o and_o the_o pap_n that_o give_v thou_o suck_v but_o christ_n tell_v she_o rather_o bless_a be_v they_o that_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o keep_v it_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d christ_n say_v rather_o bless_v he_o do_v not_o not_o say_v that_o his_o mother_n that_o bear_v he_o be_v not_o bless_v for_o she_o do_v bear_v he_o in_o her_o heart_n as_o well_o as_o in_o her_o womb_n but_o christ_n speak_v this_o with_o a_o gentle_a and_o love_a rebuke_n to_o the_o woman_n that_o give_v he_o this_o commendation_n say_v christ_n thou_o cry_v out_o bless_a be_v the_o womb_n that_o bear_v thou_o but_o i_o say_v rather_o bless_a be_v they_o that_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o keep_v it_o so_o that_o from_o hence_o note_n from_o christ_n example_n here_o doct_v that_o you_o must_v take_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o heed_n than_o you_o be_v not_o tickle_v with_o pride_n when_o ever_o you_o hear_v yourselves_o or_o you_o commend_v you_o see_v here_o christ_n will_v give_v no_o way_n to_o their_o commendation_n of_o his_o mother_n and_o then_o again_o yea_o rather_o bless_v christ_n say_v that_o those_o be_v rather_o bless_v that_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o keep_v it_o than_o his_o mother_n that_o bring_v he_o into_o the_o world_n from_o whence_o observe_v doct_v that_o a_o believer_n that_o hear_v and_o obey_v christ_n be_v rather_o bless_a in_o so_o do_v than_o the_o virgin_n mary_n be_v mere_o in_o bring_v jesus_n christ_n into_o the_o world_n though_o it_o be_v the_o happy_a birth_n that_o ever_o woman_n bring_v forth_o and_o oh_o how_o shall_v this_o be_v a_o spur_n to_o hearer_n to_o make_v they_o obey_v and_o practice_v what_o they_o hear_v but_o i_o shall_v keep_v you_o no_o long_o in_o the_o entrance_n into_o the_o word_n and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v only_o give_v you_o something_o to_o note_v from_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o expression_n that_o christ_n here_o use_v and_o then_o draw_v out_o the_o doctrine_n the_o word_n will_v afford_v in_o the_o form_n of_o speech_n that_o christ_n here_o use_v observe_v it_o be_v not_o say_v bless_a be_v they_o that_o bear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d there_o be_v many_o fort_n of_o hearer_n that_o come_v short_a of_o blessing_n but_o bless_v be_v they_o that_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o keep_v it_o there_o be_v 4._o sort_n of_o hearer_n speak_v of_o in_o mat._n 13._o and_o three_o of_o they_o be_v bad_a and_o but_o one_o good_a that_o hear_v the_o word_n aright_o all_o that_o hear_v the_o word_n do_v not_o obtain_v a_o blessing_n 1_o it_o be_v not_o say_v bless_a be_v they_o that_o hear_v but_z bless_a be_v they_o that_o hear_v and_o keep_v what_o they_o do_v hear_v 2_o it_o be_v not_o say_v bless_a be_v they_o that_o believe_v observe_v that_o though_o this_o be_v true_a yet_o it_o be_v not_o say_v so_o lest_o man_n shall_v think_v that_o a_o bare_a and_o naked_a believe_v be_v enough_o to_o entitle_v they_o to_o blessedness_n there_o be_v many_o man_n that_o pretend_v to_o faith_n and_o assurance_n and_o yet_o live_v above_o duty_n above_o hear_v and_o pray_v etc._n etc._n and_o therefore_o christ_n say_v not_o bless_a be_v they_o that_o believe_v but_o they_o that_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o keep_v it_o 3_o it_o be_v not_o say_v bless_a be_v they_o that_o keep_v the_o word_n in_o a_o disjunction_n from_o hear_v but_o they_o that_o keep_v the_o word_n in_o a_o conjunction_n with_o hear_v bless_a be_v you_o that_o hear_v and_o keep_v there_o be_v many_o man_n that_o pretend_v to_o be_v high_o fly_v in_o their_o practice_n and_o to_o keep_v what_o christ_n command_v they_o but_o yet_o it_o be_v a_o disjunctive_a obedience_n they_o will_v not_o hear_v those_o be_v only_o bless_v in_o christ_n esteem_n that_o keep_v and_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n 4_o it_o be_v not_o say_v here_o in_o the_o text_n bless_a shall_v they_o be_v that_o hear_v and_o keep_v the_o
