be_v like_o the_o compassion_n we_o have_v in_o other_o man_n misery_n we_o be_v not_o concern_v in_o it_o and_o it_o be_v not_o our_o case_n and_o our_o heart_n ache_v not_o when_o another_o man_n child_n be_v make_v fatherless_a or_o his_o wife_n a_o sad_a widow_n and_o just_o so_o be_v our_o prayer_n for_o their_o relief_n if_o we_o think_v their_o evil_n to_o be_v we_o if_o we_o and_o they_o as_o member_n of_o the_o same_o body_n have_v sensible_a and_o real_a communication_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a if_o we_o understand_v what_o be_v real_o mean_v by_o be_v member_n one_o of_o another_o or_o if_o we_o do_v not_o think_v it_o a_o spiritual_a word_n of_o art_n instrumental_a only_o to_o a_o science_n but_o no_o part_n of_o duty_n or_o real_a relation_n sure_o we_o shall_v pray_v more_o earnest_o one_o for_o another_o than_o we_o usual_o do_v how_o few_o of_o we_o be_v trouble_v when_o he_o see_v his_o brother_n wicked_a or_o dishonourble_o vicious_a who_o be_v sad_a and_o melancholy_a when_o his_o neighbour_n be_v almost_o in_o hell_n when_o he_o see_v he_o grow_v old_a in_o iniquity_n how_o many_o day_n have_v we_o set_v apart_o for_o the_o public_a relief_n and_o

be_v great_a how_o importunate_a and_o passionate_a have_v we_o be_v with_o god_n by_o prayer_n in_o his_o behalf_n by_o prayer_n and_o secret_a petition_n but_o however_o though_o it_o be_v well_o very_o well_o that_o all_o of_o we_o will_v think_v of_o this_o duty_n a_o little_a more_o because_o beside_o the_o excellency_n of_o the_o duty_n itself_o it_o will_v have_v this_o bless_a consequent_a that_o for_o who_o necessity_n we_o pray_v if_o we_o do_v desire_v earnest_o they_o shall_v be_v relieve_v we_o will_v when_o ever_o we_o can_v and_o in_o all_o we_o can_v set_v our_o

therefore_o very_o well_o that_o thing_n be_v thus_o with_o all_o man_n yet_o god_n who_o take_v care_n for_o we_o all_o make_v provision_n for_o we_o in_o special_a manner_n and_o the_o whole_a order_n of_o the_o clergy_n be_v appoint_v by_o god_n to_o pray_v for_o other_o to_o be_v minister_n of_o christ_n priesthood_n to_o be_v follower_n of_o his_o advocation_n to_o stand_v between_o god_n and_o the_o people_n and_o present_a to_o god_n all_o their_o need_n and_o all_o their_o desire_n that_o this_o god_n have_v ordain_v and_o appoint_v and_o that_o this_o rather_o he_o will_v bless_v and_o accept_v appear_v by_o the_o testimony_n of_o god_n himself_o for_o he_o only_o can_v be_v witness_n in_o this_o particular_a for_o it_o depend_v whole_o upon_o his_o gracious_a favour_n and_o acceptation_n it_o be_v the_o case_n of_o abraham_n and_o abimelech_n now_o therefore_o 7._o restore_v the_o man_n his_o wife_n for_o he_o be_v a_o prophet_n and_o he_o will_v pray_v for_o thou_o and_o thou_o shall_v live_v and_o this_o cause_v confidence_n in_o micah_n now_o know_v i_o that_o the_o lord_n will_v do_v i_o good_a see_v i_o have_v a_o levite_n 13._o to_o my_o priest_n meaning_n that_o in_o his_o ministry_n in_o the_o ministry_n of_o priest_n god_n have_v establish_v the_o alternate_a return_n of_o blessing_n and_o prayer_n the_o entercouse_n between_o god_n and_o his_o people_n and_o through_o the_o descend_a age_n of_o the_o synagogue_n it_o come_v to_o be_v transmit_v also_o to_o the_o christian_a church_n that_o the_o minister_n of_o religion_n be_v advocate_n for_o we_o under_o christ_n by_o the_o ministry_n of_o reconciliation_n by_o their_o dispense_n the_o holy_a sacrament_n by_o the_o key_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n by_o baptism_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n by_o bind_v and_o lose_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o prayer_n and_o therefore_o say_v st._n james_n if_o any_o man_n be_v sick_a among_o you_o let_v 14._o he_o send_v for_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o church_n and_o let_v they_o pray_v over_o he_o mean_v that_o god_n have_v appoint_v they_o especial_o and_o will_v accept_v they_o in_o ordinary_a and_o extraordinary_a and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o be_v mean_v by_o blessing_n a_o father_n bless_v his_o child_n and_o solomon_n bless_v his_o people_n and_o melchisedec_n the_o priest_n bless_v abraham_n and_o moses_n bless_v the_o son_n of_o israel_n and_o god_n appoint_v the_o leviticall_a priest_n to_o bless_v the_o congregation_n and_o this_o be_v more_o than_o can_v be_v do_v by_o the_o people_n for_o though_o they_o can_v say_v the_o same_o prayer_n and_o the_o people_n pray_v for_o their_o king_n and_o child_n for_o their_o parent_n and_o the_o flock_n for_o the_o pastor_n yet_o they_o can_v bless_v he_o as_o he_o bless_v they_o for_o the_o less_o be_v bless_v of_o the_o great_a and_o not_o the_o great_a of_o the_o less_o and_o this_o be_v without_o all_o contradiction_n say_v s._n paul_n 7._o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o mystery_n be_v this_o that_o god_n have_v appoint_v the_o priest_n to_o pray_v for_o the_o people_n and_o because_o he_o have_v make_v it_o to_o be_v his_o ordinary_a office_n and_o employment_n he_o also_o intend_v to_o be_v see_v in_o that_o way_n which_o he_o have_v appoint_v and_o chalk_v out_o for_o we_o his_o prayer_n if_o it_o be_v find_v in_o the_o way_n of_o righteousness_n be_v the_o sure_a way_n to_o prevail_v in_o his_o intercession_n for_o the_o people_n but_o upon_o this_o stock_n come_v in_o the_o great_a difficulty_n of_o the_o text_n for_o if_o god_n hear_v not_o sinner_n there_o be_v a_o infinite_a necessity_n that_o the_o minister_n of_o religion_n shall_v be_v very_o holy_a for_o all_o their_o ministery_n consist_v in_o preach_v and_o pray_v to_o these_o two_o be_v reducible_a all_o the_o ministery_n ecclesiastical_a which_o be_v of_o divine_a institution_n so_o the_o apostle_n sum_v up_o their_o employment_n but_o we_o will_v give_v ourselves_o 4._o continual_o to_o prayer_n and_o to_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n to_o exhort_v to_o reprove_v to_o comfort_v to_o cast_v down_o to_o determine_v case_n of_o conscience_n and_o to_o rule_v in_o the_o church_n by_o the_o word_n of_o their_o proper_a ministry_n and_o the_o very_o make_v law_n ecclesiastical_a be_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n for_o so_o their_o dictate_v pass_v into_o law_n by_o be_v duty_n enjoin_v by_o god_n or_o the_o act_n or_o exercise_n or_o instrument_n of_o some_o enjoin_v grace_n to_o prayer_n be_v reduce_v administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n but_o bind_v and_o lose_v and_o visitation_n of_o the_o sick_a be_v mix_v office_n partly_o relate_v to_o one_o partly_o to_o the_o other_o now_o although_o the_o word_n of_o god_n preach_v will_v have_v a_o great_a effect_n even_o though_o it_o be_v preach_v by_o a_o evil_a minister_n a_o vicious_a person_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o so_o well_o there_o as_o from_o a_o pious_a man_n because_o by_o prayer_n also_o his_o preach_n be_v make_v effectual_a and_o by_o his_o good_a example_n his_o homily_n and_o sermon_n be_v make_v active_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v very_o necessary_a in_o respect_n of_o this_o half_a of_o the_o minister_n office_n the_o preach_n of_o word_n he_o be_v a_o good_a man_n unless_o he_o be_v much_o perish_v to_o the_o
