be_v contain_v in_o the_o xiij_o chapter_n of_o the_o book_n of_o number_n 13.2_o â—um_fw-la 13.2_o howbeit_o that_o there_o seem_v to_o be_v some_o diversity_n at_o the_o first_o blush_n for_o there_o he_o declare_v that_o such_o as_o shall_v have_v espy_v out_o the_o land_n be_v send_v by_o the_o express_a commandment_n of_o god_n and_o here_o he_o make_v no_o mention_n of_o it_o but_o say_v it_o be_v do_v at_o the_o request_n of_o the_o people_n now_o these_o two_o thing_n may_v very_o well_o agree_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o the_o people_n shall_v desire_v to_o have_v the_o entrance_n into_o the_o land_n know_v before_o they_o go_v any_o further_a and_o also_o that_o god_n shall_v allow_v that_o desire_n yea_o or_o rather_o even_o prevent_v it_o according_o as_o we_o know_v that_o in_o all_o thing_n he_o guide_v this_o people_n with_o a_o pass_v fatherly_a care_n as_o shall_v be_v show_v in_o the_o next_o lecture_n therefore_o there_o be_v no_o inconvenience_n in_o it_o that_o god_n to_o show_v the_o people_n what_o care_n he_o have_v to_o guide_v they_o shall_v appoint_v spy_n to_o be_v send_v and_o that_o therewithal_o the_o people_n also_o on_o their_o part_n shall_v require_v it_o so_o then_o we_o see_v still_o that_o god_n bear_v with_o the_o people_n when_o he_o grant_v to_o send_v man_n to_o spy_v out_o the_o land_n and_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o it_o be_v a_o condemn_v of_o the_o people_n when_o the_o thing_n that_o shall_v have_v be_v to_o their_o help_n and_o furtherance_n do_v pluck_v they_o back_o and_o it_o be_v not_o report_v alone_o of_o those_o who_o moses_n speak_v off_o to_o the_o intent_n that_o we_o shall_v blame_v they_o but_o they_o be_v set_v forth_o as_o a_o example_n and_o look_a glass_n for_o we_o to_o see_v ourselves_o in_o and_o to_o fare_v the_o better_a by_o it_o if_o god_n bear_v with_o we_o and_o give_v we_o mean_n convenient_a for_o our_o infirmity_n let_v we_o apply_v they_o to_o our_o use_n let_v they_o stir_v we_o up_o to_o obey_v he_o and_o let_v we_o not_o in_o any_o wise_a be_v hinder_v by_o they_o this_o say_v i_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v but_o the_o chief_a point_n be_v this_o that_o moses_n add_v namely_o 14.6_o â—â—m_fw-la 13.31_o &_o 14.6_o that_o the_o spy_n bring_v word_n again_o that_o the_o land_n be_v good_a and_o that_o the_o people_n will_v not_o believe_v it_o but_o be_v disobedient_a to_o the_o mouth_n of_o god_n it_o shall_v seem_v that_o moses_n rehearse_v not_o the_o story_n as_o it_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o place_n before_o allege_v for_o there_o it_o be_v say_v that_o of_o the_o twelve_o which_o be_v send_v there_o be_v but_o two_o that_o harten_v the_o people_n to_o enter_v into_o the_o land_n that_o be_v promise_v they_o and_o that_o the_o other_o ten_o labour_v as_o much_o as_o they_o can_v to_o discourage_v those_o which_o be_v not_o very_o well_o dispose_v of_o themselves_o see_v it_o be_v so_o why_o do_v moses_n say_v here_o that_o the_o spy_v report_v it_o to_o be_v a_o good_a land_n as_o though_o they_o have_v encourage_v the_o people_n to_o do_v as_o god_n have_v command_v they_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v here_o that_o moses_n have_v not_o a_o eye_n to_o the_o great_a number_n nor_o to_o the_o multitude_n but_o to_o the_o better_a sort_n of_o they_o although_o then_o that_o there_o be_v no_o more_o but_o caleb_n the_o son_n of_o jephonee_n and_o josua_n the_o son_n of_o nun_n that_o make_v good_a report_n and_o traveil_v to_o make_v the_o people_n to_o obey_v god_n yet_o be_v they_o prefer_v at_o god_n hand_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o god_n esteem_v more_o of_o the_o six_o part_n than_o of_o all_o the_o rest_n and_o it_o be_v a_o very_a notable_a point_n as_o whereof_o we_o may_v gather_v very_o good_a and_o profitable_a doctrine_n for_o anon_o moses_n will_v add_v that_o the_o great_a part_n of_o those_o that_o be_v send_v to_o spy_v out_o the_o land_n say_v that_o the_o city_n be_v great_a and_o wall_a up_o to_o the_o sky_n but_o as_o now_o he_o speak_v but_o of_o the_o two_o that_o discharge_v their_o duty_n we_o see_v then_o that_o whensoever_o the_o great_a multitude_n of_o man_n incline_v unto_o evil_n we_o must_v let_v they_o alone_o as_o though_o they_o be_v nothing_o worth_a they_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o come_v in_o account_n and_o we_o must_v rather_o hold_v with_o a_o handful_n of_o man_n who_o we_o see_v to_o teach_v we_o faithful_o and_o to_o give_v we_o good_a counsel_n i_o say_v we_o must_v rather_o follow_v one_o or_o two_o such_o and_o let_v a_o hundred_o yea_o a_o thousand_o other_o go_v than_o cast_v ourselves_o into_o confusion_n with_o the_o great_a multitude_n and_o if_o ever_o this_o be_v needful_a it_o be_v needful_a now_o in_o our_o time_n for_o on_o the_o one_o side_n we_o see_v how_o all_o thing_n be_v turn_v upside_o down_o in_o the_o world_n superstition_n be_v so_o great_a and_o unmeasurable_a as_o be_v pity_n to_o see_v if_o we_o shall_v frame_v our_o life_n to_o the_o common_a trade_n what_o a_o thing_n be_v it_o for_o all_o be_v infect_v with_o robbery_n deceit_n cruelty_n treason_n blasphemy_n contempt_n of_o god_n drunkenness_n whoredom_n pride_n and_o looseness_n now_o then_o whosoever_o fashion_v himself_o to_o the_o custom_n of_o man_n must_v forsake_v god_n and_o withdraw_v himself_o from_o all_o goodness_n he_o must_v give_v himself_o to_o all_o lewdness_n and_o plunge_v himself_o into_o all_o wickedness_n lo_o to_o what_o point_n we_o be_v come_v what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o look_v upon_o such_o as_o be_v able_a to_o guide_v we_o aright_o though_o they_o be_v but_o few_o in_o number_n and_o let_v we_o not_o be_v carry_v away_o by_o the_o

when_o i_o see_v such_o a_o number_n of_o man_n follow_v that_o trade_n i_o put_v myself_o in_o company_n with_o they_o &_o to_o my_o seem_a y_o e_o thing_n that_o be_v so_o common_o use_v can_v not_o

of_o juda_n true_a it_o be_v that_o in_o king_n david_n time_n they_o be_v all_o one_o kingdom_n but_o when_o the_o people_n fall_v away_o than_o the_o tribe_n of_o ephraim_n become_v of_o great_a

it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o understande_v that_o to_o serve_v god_n aright_o man_n must_v uncase_v themselves_o of_o all_o pride_n so_o as_o they_o seek_v not_o to_o advance_v themselves_o but_o

to_o have_v a_o will_n to_o be_v prefer_v before_o our_o neighbour_n and_o so_o we_o see_v what_o moses_n mean_v to_o express_v here_o in_o say_v god_n will_v choose_v he_o out_o some_o one_o
