god_n law_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o man_n when_o they_o will_v not_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o their_o heavenly_a father_n true_a it_o be_v that_o here_o god_n speak_v of_o the_o correction_n which_o proceed_v from_o himself_o for_o when_o a_o man_n nurture_v his_o child_n he_o be_v god_n minister_n in_o that_o behalf_n and_o his_o voice_n be_v not_o the_o voice_n of_o man_n but_o of_o

hear_v his_o heavenly_a voice_n that_o be_v a_o voice_n of_o more_o authority_n than_o the_o speak_n of_o a_o father_n or_o a_o mother_n at_o home_n in_o their_o house_n again_o we_o come_v to_o the_o church_n where_o god_n word_n be_v preach_v unto_o we_o and_o god_n have_v dedicate_v that_o place_n and_o the_o pulpit_n to_o deliver_v out_o his_o word_n to_o be_v hear_v as_o though_o he_o be_v there_o in_o his_o own_o person_n see_v then_o that_o god_n word_n be_v so_o set_v down_o unto_o we_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o so_o preach_v unto_o we_o be_v they_o not_o to_o be_v reject_v as_o monster_n and_o in_o no_o wise_a to_o be_v suffer_v which_o disobey_v the_o same_o and_o make_v no_o account_n of_o it_o and_o if_o man_n bear_v with_o they_o be_v it_o not_o a_o procure_n of_o

maintain_v evil_a willing_o and_o witting_o so_o then_o let_v we_o always_o make_v this_o comparison_n see_v that_o god_n will_v be_v acknowledge_v in_o his_o creature_n according_a to_o the_o degree_n which_o he_o have_v give_v to_o every_o of_o they_o and_o see_v also_o that_o he_o will_v have_v those_o to_o be_v obey_v which_o be_v in_o pre-eminence_n so_o as_o the_o rest_n must_v receive_v their_o correction_n and_o submit_v themselves_o to_o they_o it_o be_v much_o more_o reason_n that_o he_o himself_o shall_v be_v hear_v and_o obey_v when_o he_o speak_v with_o his_o own_o holy_a mouth_n which_o thing_n he_o do_v when_o we_o read_v the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o when_o we_o hear_v his_o word_n preach_v for_o inasmuch_o as_o he_o have_v set_v this_o order_n in_o his_o

have_v make_v no_o reckon_v of_o the_o hear_n of_o his_o word_n then_o let_v we_o look_v well_o to_o it_o final_o let_v we_o mark_v how_o it_o be_v say_v here_o thou_o shall_v root_v out_o the_o

moreover_o if_o magistrate_n and_o judge_n be_v call_v here_o of_o god_n yea_o and_o express_o command_v by_o he_o to_o punish_v the_o disobedience_n that_o be_v commit_v against_o earthly_a father_n

not_o have_v any_o regard_n at_o all_o of_o their_o own_o ability_n furthermore_o we_o must_v mark_v also_o for_o a_o thyrd_o point_n that_o although_o moses_n see_v the_o burden_n to_o be_v

there_o be_v also_o a_o other_o evil_a extremity_n which_o be_v that_o when_o man_n see_v themselves_o to_o be_v very_o frail_a they_o become_v fainthearted_a and_o thereupon_o if_o god_n call_v

it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o execution_n of_o justice_n so_o let_v we_o note_v that_o it_o belong_v also_o to_o the_o spiritual_a government_n which_o god_n have_v ordain_v in_o his_o church_n yea_o and_o this_o doctrine_n ought_v to_o be_v keep_v more_o strait_o in_o that_o respect_n than_o in_o the_o earthly_a government_n why_o when_o god_n ordein_v king_n prince_n and_o magistrate_n there_o withal_o he_o give_v they_o authority_n to_o make_v law_n true_a it_o be_v that_o they_o ought_v to_o learn_v they_o in_o his_o school_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o law_n and_o ordinance_n which_o be_v make_v in_o common_a weal_n 8.15_o prou._n 8.15_o do_v take_v their_o force_n of_o god_n wisdom_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o civil_a or_o politic_a law_n be_v make_v by_o man_n yet_o notwithstanding_o god_n have_v not_o resign_v any_o thing_n y_z t_z he_o shall_v not_o hold_v still_o the_o sovereign_a dominion_n over_o man_n i_o mean_v even_o in_o respect_n of_o outward_a policy_n and_o as_o touch_v the_o spiritual_a government_n of_o the_o church_n we_o know_v that_o god_n will_v be_v hear_v and_o that_o he_o will_v have_v his_o word_n obey_v above_o all_o thing_n so_o as_o man_n may_v not_o take_v upon_o they_o to_o make_v law_n &_o statute_n but_o must_v hold_v themselves_o content_v with_o that_o which_o he_o command_v they_o for_o the_o rule_n that_o be_v contain_v

at_o all_o from_o it_o see_v that_o god_n have_v once_o set_v it_o down_o so_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o
he_o will_v utter_o root_v out_o that_o people_n so_o as_o there_o shall_v not_o one_o of_o they_o be_v leave_v alive_a mean_v not_o that_o he_o be_v determine_v so_o to_o do_v but_o show_v that_o

notwithstanding_o the_o wilful_a forwardness_n that_o be_v in_o the_o people_n and_o this_o be_v a_o point_n well_o worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v among_o other_o that_o when_o god_n have_v choose_v any_o

he_o will_v even_o overcome_v man_n frowardness_n with_o his_o goodness_n i_o say_v it_o be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v for_o we_o see_v that_o on_o the_o one_o side_n the_o hypocrite_n under_o

to_o fight_v against_o his_o prophet_n and_o this_o have_v they_o do_v in_o all_o age_n when_o the_o jew_n be_v rebuke_v for_o their_o wicked_a life_n &_o for_o their_o turn_n away_o from_o god_n

it_o may_v well_o seem_v that_o the_o covenant_n which_o god_n have_v make_v with_o the_o people_n be_v quite_o break_v and_o utter_o disannul_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v expedient_a that_o moses_n

contrariwise_o it_o be_v show_v we_o here_o by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o jew_n that_o although_o god_n be_v merciful_a to_o we_o and_o listen_v not_o to_o call_v our_o fault_n to_o account_v yet_o must_v not_o we_o therefore_o thrust_v they_o under_o foot_n but_o rather_o call_v they_o to_o mind_v every_o day_n that_o it_o may_v first_o of_o all_o provoke_v we_o to_o repentance_n assure_v

example_n of_o moses_n that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o pray_v unto_o god_n in_o two_o or_o three_o word_n and_o as_o it_o be_v in_o post_n but_o that_o we_o must_v continue_v in_o pray_v without_o be_v weary_a and_o that_o be_v a_o point_n right_n necessary_a to_o be_v mark_v for_o whereas_o there_o be_v many_o fault_n in_o we_o this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a that_o we_o can_v

of_o the_o people_n therefore_o in_o our_o pray_n unto_o god_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o have_v the_o perseveraunce_n whereunto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n exhort_v we_o ãâ¦ã_o luk._n ãâ¦ã_o say_v that_o

he_o still_o until_o he_o have_v hear_v our_o request_n now_o then_o here_o be_v a_o second_o lesson_n which_o we_o have_v to_o gather_v upon_o this_o place_n which_o be_v that_o in_o pray_v unto_o god_n we_o must_v have_v a_o settledness_n of_o hold_v out_o to_o the_o end_n also_o this_o pray_v of_o mosese_n show_v we_o what_o their_o duty_n be_v which_o have_v the_o charge_n of_o other_o folk_n namely_o to_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o pity_v such_o as_o shall_v have_v offend_v for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o such_o as_o have_v public_a charge_n to_o discharge_v their_o duty_n to_o the_o worldewarde_n but_o they_o must_v also_o turn_v unto_o god_n we_o see_v how_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o they_o must_v not_o only_o preach_v the_o gospel_n ãâ¦ã_o act._n ãâ¦ã_o but_o also_o give_v themselves_o to_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n now_o this_o belong_v to_o all_o the_o faithful_a for_o to_o pray_v unto_o god_n be_v the_o chief_a duty_n of_o our_o faith_n and_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o apostle_n have_v the_o chief_a charge_n of_o the_o church_n it_o behove_v this_o call_n upon_o god_n to_o belong_v chief_o unto_o they_o ãâ¦ã_o 2._o cor._n ãâ¦ã_o and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o he_o humble_v himself_o for_o the_o corinthian_n as_o who_o shall_v say_v he_o ought_v to_o bear_v the_o chastisement_n of_o their_o sin_n in_o his_o own_o

charge_n of_o preach_v god_n word_n and_o of_o teach_v in_o the_o church_n must_v not_o only_o employ_v themselves_o that_o way_n but_o also_o to_o prayer_n and_o chief_o when_o they_o see_v thing_n go_v amiss_o and_o disorder_n among_o the_o people_n then_o ought_v they_o most_o special_o to_o resort_v unto_o god_n that_o he_o may_v provide_v a_o remedy_n for_o it_o this_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v show_v we_o by_o the_o example_n of_o moses_n in_o that_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o tarry_v not_o till_o the_o people_n resort_v to_o god_n for_o mercy_n but_o show_v they_o the_o way_n as_o he_o who_o god_n have_v appoint_v to_o bear_v the_o burden_n of_o the_o people_n and_o to_o procure_v their_o welfare_n now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o form_n of_o the_o prayer_n that_o moses_n make_v lord_n god_n say_v he_o destroy_v not_o the_o people_n of_o thy_o heritage_n who_o thou_o have_v redeem_v by_o thy_o mighty_a power_n &_o strong_a hand_n out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o

as_o a_o devil_n to_o hinder_v and_o to_o trouble_v he_o for_o that_o be_v a_o pervert_v of_o the_o order_n of_o nature_n but_o she_o will_v thus_o bethink_v herself_o behold_v god_n with_o his_o

now_o see_v that_o the_o woman_n ought_v to_o be_v a_o help_n and_o aid_v unto_o her_o husband_n it_o be_v great_a reason_n that_o she_o employ_v herself_o to_o do_v her_o dewtie_n therein_o yea_o

unto_o his_o wife_n ãâ¦ã_o gen._n ãâ¦ã_o it_o be_v to_o magnify_v so_o much_o the_o more_o that_o holy_a bond_n which_o be_v ordain_v by_o god._n for_o can_v a_o man_n renounce_v his_o father_n and_o

be_v less_o to_o be_v excuse_v for_o separate_a himself_o from_o his_o wife_n for_o why_o god_n have_v so_o pronounce_v that_o albeit_o a_o child_n be_v special_o bind_v to_o his_o father_n and_o

to_o forsake_v his_o wife_n as_o a_o child_n to_o exempt_v himself_o from_o y_z e_z subjection_n of_o his_o father_n and_o the_o wife_n likewise_o on_o her_o part_n shall_v know_v to_o say_v behold_v my_o husband_n be_v my_o head_n he_o have_v authority_n over_o i_o &_o god_n have_v bind_v i_o to_o he_o and_o shall_v i_o then_o separate_v myself_o from_o either_o through_o a_o heady_a will_n or_o

have_v allot_v unto_o i_o such_o a_o condition_n that_o i_o must_v be_v subject_a to_o my_o husband_n i_o must_v not_o hoist_v up_o my_o head_n like_o a_o wild_a hind_n and_o shake_v off_o the_o

of_o abraham_n he_o will_v have_v the_o jew_n to_o acknowledge_v it_o for_o a_o excellent_a dignity_n that_o they_o be_v bless_v in_o such_o wise_a above_o the_o rest_n of_o all_o the_o world_n but_o

and_o therefore_o whereas_o it_o be_v god_n will_n that_o the_o family_n and_o kindred_n shall_v be_v maintain_v it_o be_v not_o to_o the_o intent_n the_o jew_n shall_v place_v their_o whole_a

they_o know_v that_o because_o he_o shall_v come_v of_o their_o race_n and_o their_o lineage_n they_o ought_v by_o great_a reason_n to_o be_v partaker_n of_o that_o benefit_n which_o he_o bring_v

thus_o you_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n now_o by_o the_o way_n we_o see_v what_o uprightness_n ought_v to_o be_v use_v in_o bond_n for_o because_o the_o woman_n for_o their_o part_n be_v bind_v in_o such_o wise_a it_o be_v requisite_a that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o mutual_a bond_n also_o on_o the_o man_n side_n there_o be_v no_o reason_n that_o y_o e_o one_o party_n shall_v be_v bind_v and_o the_o other_o leave_v in_o in_o full_a liberty_n you_o see_v then_o how_o we_o be_v warn_v in_o this_o place_n that_o if_o two_o party_n do_v contract_n or_o

all_o contract_n covenant_n and_o bargain_n which_o we_o be_v to_o deal_v in_o therefore_o if_o in_o bargain_v with_o a_o man_n i_o stand_v altogether_o upon_o my_o own_o advantage_n and_o be_v over_o

and_o again_o the_o poor_a man_n be_v so_o overpress_v that_o he_o perceive_v not_o the_o damage_n which_o he_o run_v into_o indeed_o he_o agree_v to_o all_o that_o be_v demand_v of_o he_o howbeit_o y_o it_o be_v because_o he_o be_v in_o need_n &_o wist_v not_o how_o to_o escape_v otherwise_o let_v we_o look_v to_o it_o therefore_o y_a to_o we_o bear_v such_o a_o even_a hand_n as_o one_o man_n

may_v feel_v himself_o relieve_v thus_o you_o see_v one_o point_n more_o which_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n upon_o this_o place_n now_o here_o a_o man_n may_v damaunde_v how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o god_n will_v have_v the_o brother_n whichsoever_o live_v to_o take_v the_o wife_n of_o he_o that_o be_v dead_a see_v that_o such_o marriage_n be_v not_o lawful_a as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o eyghteenth_fw-mi chapter_n of_o leviticus_fw-la 18.6_o ãâã_d 18.6_o see_v it_o be_v incest_n for_o one_o to_o take_v his_o brother_n wife_n after_o his_o death_n how_o happen_v it_o that_o god_n not_o only_o permit_v but_o also_o injoin_v it_o the_o jew_n confess_v that_o this_o be_v not_o speak_v of_o brethren_n in_o the_o first_o degree_n that_o be_v of_o bear_v brother_n as_o we_o call_v they_o but_o rather_o of_o such_o as_o be_v further_o off_o of_o kin_n and_o the_o very_a word_n itself_o also_o do_v proper_o extend_v no_o further_o than_o to_o such_o as_o may_v contract_v marriage_n together_o in_o deed_n in_o the_o example_n which_o we_o have_v afore_o allege_v the_o brethren_n which_o be_v of_o the_o first_o degree_n take_v thamar_n to_o wife_n and_o god_n root_v they_o out_o for_o their_o filthiness_n but_o the_o law_n be_v not_o yet_o make_v and_o in_o the_o east_n country_n they_o have_v no_o great_a regard_n of_o honesty_n but_o behave_v themselves_o like_o beast_n in_o marry_v in_o so_o much_o that_o they_o make_v no_o conscience_n to_o couple_v the_o brother_n and_o sister_n together_o like_o dog_n and_o bââhes_n there_o be_v i_o say_v such_o wickedness_n use_v in_o that_o country_n yea_o even_o among_o the_o king_n and_o prince_n in_o deed_n they_o be_v the_o person_n which_o take_v unto_o themselves_o great_a leave_n and_o liberty_n in_o this_o behalf_n but_o the_o common_a sort_n as_o i_o tell_v you_o do_v the_o like_a too_o and_o according_a to_o this_o common_a custom_n juda_n after_o the_o death_n of_o his_o elder_a son_n give_v his_o second_o son_n also_o unto_o thamar_n and_o herein_o we_o see_v the_o rather_o what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v carry_v away_o by_o custom_n when_o we_o have_v no_o other_o consideration_n than_o to_o do_v according_a to_o the_o custom_n which_o have_v be_v maintain_v aforetimes_o among_o man_n we_o fall_v into_o horrible_a confusion_n &_o when_o one_o follow_v another_o fashion_n after_o y_fw-fr t_o sort_n there_o be_v no_o rule_n but_o whatsoever_o man_n do_v let_v we_o learn_v to_o behave_v ourselves_o according_a unto_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o not_o turn_n either_o to_o this_o side_n or_o that_o side_n but_o abide_v stable_a and_o constant_a in_o that_o which_o god_n like_v of_o that_o be_v y_z e_z thing_n which_o we_o must_v bear_v in_o mind_n when_o we_o see_v that_o thing_n have_v be_v so_o far_o out_o of_o square_n through_o out_o the_o world_n and_o that_o the_o
that_o the_o judge_n may_v persuade_v the_o man_n and_o if_o they_o see_v he_o to_o stand_v stiff_a in_o his_o opinion_n than_o the_o woman_n shall_v pluck_v off_o his_o shoe_n from_o his_o foot_n and_o spit_v in_o his_o face_n as_o by_o way_n of_o reproach_n and_o she_o shall_v say_v god_n do_v so_o unto_o all_o they_o which_o will_v not_o raise_v up_o a_o stock_n in_o israel_n now_o here_o we_o have_v far_o to_o note_n that_o god_n will_v have_v the_o judge_n speak_v unto_o the_o man_n to_o persuade_v he_o as_o far_o as_o they_o be_v able_a and_o if_o the_o man_n will_v not_o consent_v unto_o they_o they_o shall_v content_v themselves_o with_o this_o kind_n of_o punishment_n whereby_o we_o see_v that_o the_o magistrate_n and_o other_o justicer_n ought_v to_o abstain_v from_o use_v any_o force_n and_o violence_n in_o that_o thing_n which_o they_o can_v simple_o command_v as_o for_o example_n if_o there_o be_v a_o thing_n which_o be_v good_a and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o law_n for_o it_o and_o i_o be_v of_o power_n and_o authority_n will_v constrain_v a_o man_n to_o do_v what_o i_o think_v good_a be_v there_o any_o reason_n in_o it_o for_o the_o law_n constrain_v he_o not_o to_o do_v it_o and_o i_o ought_v not_o to_o pass_v those_o bound_n let_v we_o therefore_o note_v well_o that_o such_o as_o be_v arm_v with_o the_o sword_n must_v contain_v themselves_o within_o their_o bound_n and_o not_o challenge_v to_o themselves_o any_o lawless_a liberty_n to_o say_v what_o i_o command_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o therefore_o you_o must_v do_v it_o no_o for_o there_o be_v no_o constrain_v where_o there_o be_v no_o law_n when_o there_o be_v a_o law_n a_o man_n must_v hold_v himself_o to_o the_o rule_n thereof_o but_o yet_o in_o the_o end_n the_o point_n that_o must_v be_v come_v unto_o be_v to_o presume_v to_o bring_v man_n into_o no_o further_a subjection_n than_o the_o law_n bind_v they_o unto_o you_o see_v then_o what_o we_o be_v far_a to_o bear_v in_o mind_n upon_o this_o place_n now_o as_o touch_v the_o shame_n that_o be_v do_v in_o pluck_v off_o of_o their_o shoe_n &_o in_o spit_v in_o their_o face_n it_o serve_v to_o provoke_v man_n to_o discharge_v their_o duty_n the_o better_a yet_o nevertheless_o if_o a_o man_n have_v rather_o sustain_v this_o reproach_n than_o to_o take_v wife_n against_o his_o will_n he_o be_v discharge_v thereof_o and_o herein_o we_o see_v as_o i_o have_v already_o tell_v you_o that_o god_n show_v the_o authority_n of_o a_o father_n in_o be_v grieve_v when_o the_o family_n be_v not_o maintain_v in_o israel_n and_o yet_o be_v he_o content_v to_o bear_v with_o such_o as_o can_v not_o find_v in_o their_o heart_n to_o stoop_v to_o that_o yoke_n because_o it_o be_v so_o hard_o therefore_o if_o any_o have_v rather_o to_o suffer_v such_o shame_n than_o to_o take_v a_o wife_n after_o that_o manner_n he_o come_v to_o declare_v it_o public_o but_o we_o must_v now_o return_v unto_o that_o which_o i_o say_v in_o the_o beginning_n namely_o that_o there_o be_v not_o now_o any_o carnal_a kindred_n privilege_v as_o the_o race_n and_o lineage_n of_o abraham_n be_v for_o god_n

be_v disperse_v throughout_o the_o whole_a world_n yet_o be_v they_o knit_v in_o one_o body_n by_o agree_v in_o one_o consent_n of_o faith_n to_o call_v upon_o god_n and_o although_o they_o do_v it_o in_o diverse_a tongue_n yet_o it_o skill_v not_o see_v that_o oneself_o same_o spirit_n govern_v they_o and_o that_o they_o have_v all_o one_o hope_v of_o the_o everlasting_a salvation_n which_o be_v promise_v unto_o they_o those_o be_v the_o thing_n wherein_o they_o be_v all_o knit_v and_o conjoin_v together_o see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o note_v that_o god_n will_v have_v every_o of_o we_o nowadays_o for_o his_o own_o part_n to_o do_v his_o indevor_n to_o multiply_v the_o church_n and_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n be_v no_o long_o beget_v according_a to_o the_o flesh_n through_o carnal_a marriage_n but_o it_o be_v beget_v of_o the_o incorruptible_a seed_n of_o god_n word_n 2.23_o 1._o pet._n 2.23_o as_o saint_n peter_n say_v and_o when_o god_n vouchsafe_v we_o his_o grace_n to_o win_v any_o man_n and_o to_o bring_v he_o into_o his_o flock_n then_o be_v we_o as_o spiritual_a father_n and_o that_o also_o be_v the_o very_a cause_n why_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n be_v call_v father_n and_o likewise_o the_o church_n have_v general_o y_o e_z name_n and_o title_n of_o mother_n because_o she_o conceive_v the_o child_n of_o god_n now_o albeit_o that_o all_o have_v not_o that_o office_n of_o preach_v the_o word_n of_o god_n yet_o a_o private_a person_n be_v a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n may_v begette_v spiritual_a child_n unto_o god_n if_o he_o have_v occasion_n and_o ability_n to_o win_v a_o poor_a soul_n &_o to_o inlighten_v he_o with_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n let_v we_o then_o bestow_v our_o pain_n to_o this_o end_n know_v that_o if_o the_o carnal_a marriage_n be_v so_o precious_a under_o the_o law_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n sure_o the_o mean_a whereby_o we_o be_v make_v member_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v a_o thing_n now_o far_o dear_a and_o of_o great_a estimation_n with_o he_o and_o therefore_o let_v every_o man_n employ_v himself_o that_o way_n to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o his_o poor_a for_o here_o be_v no_o force_n of_o we_o to_o marry_v against_o our_o will_n but_o of_o the_o win_n of_o wife_n unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o by_o the_o multiply_a of_o the_o church_n we_o may_v always_o be_v the_o more_o firm_o link_v unto_o he_o see_v then_o that_o our_o condition_n be_v more_o gentle_a and_o sweet_a than_o that_o which_o be_v under_o the_o law_n we_o ought_v to_o be_v stir_v up_o so_o much_o the_o more_o to_o the_o discharge_n of_o that_o duty_n and_o we_o shall_v have_v so_o much_o the_o less_o excuse_n if_o we_o be_v careless_a and_o negligent_a therein_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n in_o effect_n as_o touch_v this_o law_n and_o now_o we_o see_v that_o although_o it_o be_v no_o long_o in_o use_n yet_o may_v we_o gather_v some_o profit_n from_o it_o to_o be_v edify_v thereby_o for_o of_o all_o the_o thing_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v vouchsafe_v to_o leave_v unto_o we_o there_o be_v none_o unprofitable_a if_o we_o have_v the_o wisdom_n as_o i_o tell_v you_o &_o the_o discretion_n to_o apply_v it_o well_o unto_o our_o use_n it_o follow_v that_o if_o two_o man_n be_v at_o strife_n and_o one_o of_o their_o wife_n come_v to_o deliver_v her_o husband_n and_o take_v his_o adversary_n by_o the_o privity_n her_o hand_n shall_v be_v cut_v off_o this_o law_n betoken_v in_o effect_n that_o honesty_n be_v to_o be_v keep_v continual_o and_o that_o if_o a_o woman_n forgo_v shamefastness_n it_o be_v a_o wicked_a and_o intolerable_a thing_n and_o therefore_o aught_o to_o be_v punish_v to_o the_o intent_n honest_a sobriety_n and_o stayednes_n in_o conversation_n may_v be_v maintain_v among_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o no_o lawless_a liberty_n of_o shameful_a beastliness_n suffer_v that_o be_v the_o thing_n in_o effect_n whereat_o god_n amed_z in_o this_o law_n and_o so_o let_v we_o note_v that_o under_o one_o example_n he_o mean_v to_o give_v we_o a_o general_a instruction_n as_o touch_v all_o thing_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o take_v heed_n of_o now_o as_o concern_v the_o special_a case_n which_o be_v set_v down_o here_o we_o see_v how_o the_o woman_n may_v have_v somewhat_o for_o her_o excuse_n when_o she_o come_v to_o help_v her_o husband_n she_o may_v allege_v that_o she_o take_v not_o great_a heed_n and_o that_o she_o be_v astonish_v or_o amaze_v but_o god_n hold_v she_o not_o excuse_v

that_o be_v y_fw-fr e_o best_a mean_n to_o teach_v we_o to_o observe_v the_o law_n i_o mean_v so_o far_o as_o our_o weakness_n will_v suffer_v for_o as_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o it_o be_v not_o

which_o i_o command_v you_o this_o day_n for_o you_o aââ_n make_v a_o people_n unto_o your_o god._n this_o have_v be_v already_o expound_v but_o it_o be_v good_a to_o bear_v that_o always_o in_o mind_n which_o have_v be_v say_v concern_v it_o to_o wit_n that_o god_n speak_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o his_o priest_n as_o if_o he_o be_v there_o visible_o in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o that_o be_v to_o the_o intent_n his_o word_n shall_v be_v receive_v with_o the_o great_a reverence_n for_o when_o we_o see_v but_o mortal_a man_n as_o we_o be_v we_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o what_o soever_o proceed_v from_o they_o may_v very_o well_o be_v reject_v and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o account_n make_v of_o it_o we_o think_v the_o matter_n be_v not_o great_a and_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v oftentimes_o little_o esteem_v for_o when_o we_o see_v none_o speak_v but_o creature_n like_v unto_o ourselves_o we_o think_v that_o y_z t_z which_o they_o pronounce_v be_v nothing_o but_o a_o sound_n of_o word_n but_o god_n will_v have_v the_o majesty_n of_o his_o word_n to_o be_v know_v &_o although_o man_n bring_v it_o and_o be_v the_o messenger_n thereof_o yet_o will_v he_o not_o have_v the_o worthiness_n thereof_o to_o be_v diminish_v so_o as_o man_n shall_v not_o give_v audience_n unto_o it_o but_o he_o will_v have_v every_o man_n to_o stoop_v to_o it_o and_o to_o receive_v the_o yoke_n which_o he_o put_v upon_o they_o god_n therefore_o speak_v in_o this_o place_n of_o moses_n and_o by_o the_o priest_n but_o yet_o in_o such_o a_o language_n and_o kind_n of_o speech_n that_o he_o will_v have_v people_n to_o lift_v up_o their_o mind_n more_o high_a and_o to_o know_v that_o although_o they_o be_v teach_v by_o the_o mean_a and_o ministry_n of_o man_n yet_o they_o ought_v to_o confess_v that_o god_n be_v the_o author_n of_o that_o word_n which_o man_n preach_v unto_o they_o and_o that_o they_o ought_v to_o receyve_v it_o as_o from_o god_n himself_o &_o so_o be_v silent_a to_o hear_v it_o and_o make_v no_o reply_n or_o gaynsay_n against_o it_o for_o such_o contempt_n be_v not_o do_v to_o a_o mortal_a creature_n but_o god_n himself_o be_v despise_v by_o it_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o note_v well_o all_o the_o place_n whereby_o god_n authorise_v his_o word_n to_o the_o intent_n we_o may_v learn_v to_o hold_v ourselves_o unto_o it_o and_o to_o be_v order_v thereby_o so_o as_o every_o of_o we_o do_v bow_v down_o his_o head_n as_o often_o as_o man_n speak_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n and_o moreover_o we_o see_v

howsoever_o the_o case_n stand_v there_o be_v always_o priest_n to_o speak_v who_o be_v ordain_v to_o teach_v the_o people_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o prophet_n malachi_n 2.7_o

instruct_v the_o people_n in_o his_o name_n hereby_o we_o gather_v that_o when_o god_n have_v appoint_v such_o order_n all_o those_o which_o can_v not_o suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v teach_v by_o this_o common_a order_n with_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o church_n may_v well_o protest_v that_o they_o be_v christian_n but_o they_o come_v to_o the_o church_n as_o holy_a as_o horse_n bear_v

by_o the_o ministry_n of_o man_n but_o because_o this_o point_n have_v be_v handle_v large_o heretofore_o i_o do_v now_o but_o as_o it_o be_v glance_n at_o it_o by_o the_o way_n also_o there_o be_v

such_o as_o think_v that_o god_n have_v hitherto_o already_o threaten_v the_o heathen_a &_o uncircumcised_a which_o scorn_v the_o jew_n when_o they_o see_v they_o in_o adversity_n expound_v this_o

that_o he_o will_v rejoice_v in_o so_o do_v for_o the_o second_o word_n which_o moses_n use_v betoken_v sometime_o to_o comfort_n but_o we_o must_v remember_v what_o have_v be_v say_v afore_o namely_o that_o god_n continue_v in_o threaten_v such_o as_o can_v be_v subdue_v but_o by_o main_a force_n according_a to_o the_o hardness_n of_o heart_n which_o we_o know_v to_o have_v be_v in_o that_o

be_v the_o cause_n why_o he_o add_v now_o that_o god_n will_v judge_v his_o people_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v those_o who_o god_n have_v choose_v must_v not_o think_v to_o have_v a_o privilege_n to_o be_v let_v alone_o unpunished_a in_o their_o offence_n and_o wicked_a do_n it_o be_v clean_o contrary_a for_o therein_o will_v god_n show_v his_o justice._n and_o although_o god_n be_v judge_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n in_o general_a yet_o will_v he_o be_v know_v to_o be_v so_o chief_o in_o his_o church_n as_o the_o which_o be_v his_o house_n 3.15_o 1._o tim_n 3.15_o and_o it_o be_v good_a

which_o thing_n saint_n peter_n allege_v also_o and_o it_o be_v a_o very_a notable_a say_n and_o such_o a_o one_o as_o may_v serve_v we_o to_o great_a purpose_n for_o we_o be_v abash_v when_o we_o

the_o infidel_n which_o belong_v no_o whit_n unto_o he_o it_o seem_v strange_a but_o we_o must_v note_v what_o i_o have_v allege_v afore_o namely_o that_o forasmuch_o as_o god_n acknowledge_v we_o for_o his_o household_n folk_n he_o must_v needs_o have_v a_o special_a care_n of_o us._n therefore_o when_o he_o see_v we_o go_v astray_o he_o reform_v we_o whereas_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o he_o
