do_v general_o read_v in_o scripture_n that_o those_o man_n to_o who_o god_n show_v any_o great_a revelation_n or_o bestow_v any_o great_a blessing_n he_o do_v it_o in_o the_o time_n when_o they_o

the_o end_n why_o he_o send_v they_o manna_n be_v that_o they_o may_v know_v that_o man_n live_v not_o by_o bread_n alone_o but_o by_o every_o word_n of_o god_n as_o there_o it_o be_v set_v down_o

shall_v come_v to_o their_o remembrance_n and_o our_o saviour_n do_v remember_v it_o verse_n 5._o then_o the_o devil_n take_v he_o up_o into_o the_o holy_a city_n and_o set_v he_o on_o a_o pinnacle_n of_o the_o temple_n then_o the_o devil_n fly_v to_o another_o temptation_n he_o do_v reply_n upon_o our_o saviour_n answer_n observe_v therefore_o 1._o the_o fullness_n of_o our_o saviour_n answer_n the_o devil_n can_v not_o cavil_v at_o it_o but_o be_v silence_v for_o that_o temptation_n 2._o observe_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o devil_n can_v deny_v either_o that_o it_o be_v so_o write_v or_o that_o such_o writing_n be_v authentical_a for_o if_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v by_o it_o it_o be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a argument_n to_o prove_v that_o we_o shall_v or_o shall_v not_o do_v such_o or_o such_o a_o thing_n because_o it_o be_v write_v so_o 2._o then_o st_n luke_n relate_v this_o temptation_n last_o how_o be_v it_o that_o matthew_n put_v it_o in_o the_o second_o place_n the_o question_n be_v which_o of_o they_o be_v the_o first_o temptation_n i_o answer_v this_o that_o st_n matthew_n relate_v first_o the_o reason_n be_v 1._o because_o that_o have_v a_o near_a relation_n and_o more_o fit_o follow_v the_o first_o then_o that_o which_o st_n luke_n relate_v in_o the_o second_o place_n and_o this_o in_o two_o respect_n 1._o because_o upon_o our_o saviour_n quote_v scripture_n most_o likely_a it_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v by_o scripture_n go_v about_o to_o deceive_v he_o 2._o because_o the_o first_o temptation_n be_v to_o bring_v our_o saviour_n to_o despair_v or_o at_o least_o to_o diffide_v of_o god_n mercy_n and_o providence_n the_o next_o most_o probable_o shall_v be_v to_o make_v he_o presume_v of_o his_o protection_n for_o the_o remedy_n against_o one_o vice_n do_v almost_o incline_v one_o into_o the_o other_o as_o he_o that_o keep_v himself_o from_o be_v push_v backward_o he_o bend_v his_o force_n forward_o in_o the_o primitive_a church_n those_o argument_n which_o be_v bring_v to_o prove_v the_o deity_n of_o christ_n against_o arius_n be_v so_o strong_a that_o they_o occasion_v apollinarius_n to_o deny_v his_o humanity_n the_o devil_n therefore_o can_v never_o take_v so_o fit_a a_o opportunity_n to_o tempt_v christ_n to_o presume_v as_o then_o when_o he_o find_v he_o so_o confident_a of_o god_n mercy_n 2._o st_n matthew_n use_v word_n of_o order_n for_o he_o say_v then_o st_n luke_n seem_v not_o to_o intend_v to_o observe_v the_o order_n for_o in_o his_o relation_n he_o use_v not_o then_o but_o again_o but_o and_o he_o take_v he_o and_o he_o carry_v he_o 3._o st_n matthew_z when_o he_o relate_v the_o last_o temptation_n he_o say_v again_o the_o devil_n take_v he_o up_o into_o a_o exceed_a high_a etc._n etc._n if_o the_o devil_n have_v not_o take_v he_o up_o before_o he_o shall_v not_o have_v say_v he_o take_v he_o up_o again_o 4._o in_o the_o three_o temptation_n according_a to_o st_n matthew_n our_o saviour_n bid_v satan_n avoid_v satan_n therefore_o do_v sure_o leave_v he_o for_o that_o time_n else_o our_o saviour_n shall_v have_v command_v the_o devil_n to_o do_v that_o which_o he_o do_v not_o now_o our_o saviour_n never_o command_v the_o evil_a spirit_n that_o which_o he_o do_v not_o make_v they_o do_v when_o he_o bid_v they_o come_v out_o they_o come_v out_o and_o when_o he_o bid_v they_o avoid_v they_o avoid_v satan_n therefore_o after_o our_o saviour_n bid_v he_o avoid_v leave_v he_o for_o that_o time_n it_o be_v therefore_o the_o last_o temptation_n but_o you_o may_v say_v do_v not_o luke_n mistake_v and_o can_v it_o be_v true_a what_o he_o write_v and_o yet_o true_a what_o matthew_n write_v for_o the_o same_o temptation_n can_v possible_o be_v the_o second_o and_o the_o three_o except_o our_o saviour_n be_v twice_o tempt_v with_o the_o same_o temptation_n i_o answer_v that_o he_o that_o say_v that_o god_n create_v man_n and_o beast_n and_o the_o light_n and_o the_o sun_n say_v as_o true_a as_o he_o that_o say_v that_o god_n create_v the_o sun_n and_o light_n and_o beast_n and_o man_n though_o he_o do_v not_o relate_v god_n work_n in_o the_o same_o order_n as_o they_o be_v make_v so_o st_n luke_n when_o he_o say_v that_o and_o the_o devil_n take_v he_o into_o a_o high_a mountain_n and_o also_o take_v he_o and_o set_v he_o upon_o a_o pinnacle_n of_o the_o temple_n say_v as_o true_a as_o if_o he_o have_v relate_v they_o in_o the_o same_o order_n that_o they_o be_v do_v the_o devil_n take_v he_o some_o may_v wonder_v why_o our_o saviour_n will_v suffer_v himself_o to_o be_v take_v and_o carry_v up_o and_o down_o at_o the_o devil_n pleasure_n but_o i_o answer_v it_o be_v no_o marvel_n for_o he_o suffer_v himself_o to_o be_v use_v far_o worse_o at_o his_o death_n and_o daily_o in_o his_o member_n 2._o by_o his_o suffering_n satan_n to_o take_v his_o course_n and_o to_o restrain_v he_o in_o nothing_o he_o do_v more_o full_o overcome_v he_o for_o if_o he_o have_v be_v restrain_v it_o may_v have_v haply_o be_v say_v if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v restrain_v he_o have_v prevail_v against_o our_o saviour_n 2._o he_o do_v not_o himself_o go_v but_o be_v carry_v to_o teach_v we_o that_o we_o must_v not_o be_v active_a but_o only_o passive_a in_o our_o temptation_n 3._o see_v how_o incessant_a the_o devil_n be_v and_o how_o indefatigable_a in_o the_o temptation_n it_o be_v a_o caution_n to_o we_o not_o to_o content_v ourselves_o and_o leave_v off_o our_o watch_n though_o we_o have_v overcome_v one_o temptation_n up_o into_o the_o holy_a city_n that_o be_v jerusalem_n so_o st_n luke_n call_v it_o holy_a 1._o to_o distinguish_v it_o from_o all_o other_o city_n of_o the_o gentile_n who_o worship_v idol_n 2._o because_o in_o that_o city_n only_o the_o main_a duty_n of_o religion_n be_v to_o be_v perform_v now_o before_o we_o go_v further_a let_v we_o see_v the_o subtlety_n of_o this_o temptation_n 1._o as_o i_o have_v show_v the_o former_a temptation_n be_v to_o diffidence_n the_o way_n to_o defend_v he_o from_o that_o must_v needs_o be_v something_o that_o may_v make_v he_o to_o confide_v in_o god_n and_o whosoever_o be_v free_a from_o one_o extreme_a if_o he_o be_v vicious_a or_o faulty_a be_v guilty_a of_o the_o other_o extreme_a therefore_o the_o likely_a way_n to_o prevail_v be_v to_o try_v he_o in_o a_o temptation_n of_o presumption_n that_o be_v free_a from_o despair_n 2._o the_o second_o point_n of_o subtlety_n be_v that_o he_o fight_v with_o he_o with_o his_o own_o weapon_n and_o tempt_v he_o with_o a_o place_n of_o scripture_n 3._o that_o he_o do_v tempt_v he_o with_o so_o many_o temptation_n in_o one_o and_o set_v he_o upon_o the_o pinnacle_n of_o the_o temple_n why_o shall_v he_o set_v he_o there_o 1._o to_o tempt_v he_o to_o fear_v of_o fall_v 2._o to_o have_v a_o fit_a place_n for_o his_o temptation_n for_o the_o place_n must_v be_v high_a or_o it_o be_v not_o fit_a for_o the_o temptation_n these_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o he_o carry_v he_o to_o so_o high_a a_o place_n but_o why_o to_o that_o place_n for_o if_o he_o have_v carry_v he_o to_o some_o cliff_n of_o some_o high_a rock_n it_o may_v be_v as_o well_o fit_a for_o that_o 3._o therefore_o it_o be_v to_o tempt_v he_o to_o vainglory_n for_o all_o the_o people_n look_v on_o he_o as_o they_o can_v not_o choose_v but_o wonder_n to_o see_v one_o stand_v on_o the_o pinnacle_n of_o the_o temple_n and_o it_o will_v be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o honour_n for_o he_o before_o all_o the_o people_n to_o do_v such_o a_o miracle_n and_o to_o get_v himself_o honour_n before_o all_o the_o people_n 2._o to_o make_v the_o temptation_n take_v therefore_o it_o be_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v when_o i_o be_v alone_o with_o you_o in_o the_o wilderness_n than_o it_o be_v not_o to_o so_o much_o purpose_n to_o prove_v thyself_o by_o some_o rare_a work_n the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o now_o here_o be_v holy_a man_n that_o come_v to_o the_o temple_n it_o be_v a_o very_a necessary_a point_n for_o they_o to_o believe_v therefore_o now_o show_v thyself_o who_o thou_o be_v fear_v not_o for_o it_o be_v write_v and_o
