kill_v he_o for_o so_o must_v abraham_n it_o be_v note_v by_o suetonius_n that_o among_o other_o argument_n of_o caligula_n his_o great_a cruelty_n sect._n sueton._n calig_n 27_o sect._n this_o be_v

from_o his_o son_n execution_n in_o regard_n of_o his_o sickness_n we_o read_v there_o that_o caligula_n send_v he_o his_o horselitter_n to_o bring_v he_o thither_o but_o we_o never_o read_v among_o all_o his_o cruelty_n that_o he_o force_v any_o father_n to_o be_v his_o son_n executioner_n there_o have_v be_v some_o say_v philo_n who_o for_o the_o safety_n and_o good_a of_o their_o country_n abra._n philo_n lib._n de_fw-la abra._n have_v suffer_v their_o child_n to_o be_v sacrifice_v to_o their_o god_n but_o they_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n have_v either_o stay_v at_o home_n and_o will_v not_o be_v present_a when_o their_o child_n be_v sacrifice_v or_o if_o they_o be_v present_a they_o have_v turn_v away_o their_o eye_n and_o cover_v their_o face_n as_o unable_a to_o behold_v so_o

all_o that_o he_o may_v not_o see_v his_o daughter_n sacrifice_v how_o then_o will_v he_o have_v endure_v if_o he_o himself_o shall_v have_v do_v it_o for_o so_o must_v abraham_n if_o god_n have_v put_v it_o to_o abraham_n choice_n whether_o he_o will_v have_v offer_v himself_o or_o his_o son_n no_o doubt_n he_o will_v have_v think_v that_o god_n have_v deal_v very_o gracious_o with_o he_o and_o that_o god_n have_v set_v isaac_n but_o at_o too_o low_a a_o rate_n see_v he_o may_v purchase_v his_o life_n with_o the_o loss_n of_o his_o own_o for_o abraham_n be_v old_a and_o therefore_o will_v willing_o have_v yield_v his_o life_n unto_o god_n which_o he_o must_v of_o necessity_n have_v yield_v unto_o nature_n not_o long_o after_o but_o god_n will_v not_o be_v content_a with_o abraham_n death_n but_o with_o the_o death_n of_o his_o son_n for_o he_o know_v it_o will_v be_v worse_o than_o death_n unto_o abraham_n to_o live_v without_o isaac_n but_o a_o thousand_o time_n more_o grievous_a when_o he_o himself_o shall_v kill_v he_o for_o what_o may_v abraham_n think_v with_o himself_o cain_n be_v the_o first_o parricide_n that_o ever_o be_v and_o abraham_n must_v be_v the_o second_o when_o cain_n have_v murder_v his_o brother_n abel_n he_o think_v he_o have_v commit_v such_o a_o abominable_a act_n that_o every_o one_o that_o see_v he_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o kill_v he_o whosoever_o find_v i_o say_v cain_n will_v slay_v i_o and_o abraham_n may_v well_o imagine_v that_o this_o will_v make_v he_o odious_a among_o his_o neighbour_n and_o that_o every_o one_o will_v count_v he_o as_o a_o enemy_n to_o nature_n and_o as_o one_o that_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o live_v among_o they_o if_o but_o any_o bruit_n beast_n say_v plutarch_n do_v kill_v their_o young_a we_o stand_v amaze_v at_o it_o we_o count_v it_o prodigious_a and_o that_o be_v portend_v some_o strange_a event_n we_o offer_v sacrifice_n to_o appease_v the_o god_n that_o they_o may_v defend_v we_o from_o it_o for_o we_o know_v say_v he_o that_o nature_n have_v teach_v they_o to_o love_v their_o young_a and_o not_o to_o destroy_v they_o and_o will_v not_o every_o man_n than_o exclaim_v against_o abraham_n be_v not_o this_o that_o hebrew_n that_o murder_v his_o son_n be_v not_o this_o he_o who_o as_o short_a a_o time_n as_o he_o have_v so_o journ_v in_o our_o land_n have_v make_v the_o whole_a

will_v be_v ready_a to_o cry_v out_o against_o abraham_n and_o yet_o such_o be_v his_o obedience_n that_o he_o have_v rather_o become_v odious_a among_o his_o neighbour_n and_o show_v himself_o

doctrine_n which_o may_v be_v gather_v from_o hence_o be_v this_o that_o god_n make_v trial_n of_o our_o obedience_n according_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o his_o gift_n and_o grace_n which_o he_o have_v bestow_v upon_o we_o for_o so_o we_o see_v he_o deal_v here_o with_o abraham_n a_o light_a temptation_n have_v not_o be_v fit_a for_o so_o great_a a_o patriarch_n and_o therefore_o as_o god_n have_v extraordinary_o enrich_v he_o with_o the_o grace_n of_o his_o spirit_n so_o he_o make_v a_o extraordinary_a trial_n of_o his_o faith_n and_o obedience_n for_o god_n deal_v with_o we_o as_o a_o schoolmaster_n be_v wont_a to_o deal_v with_o his_o scholar_n who_o examine_v not_o every_o one_o alike_o but_o according_a as_o they_o proceed_v and_o profit_v in_o learning_n so_o he_o still_o put_v they_o to_o further_a exercise_n if_o god_n shall_v lay_v any_o grievous_a trial_n upon_o those_o that_o be_v weak_a and_o not_o strengthen_v in_o faith_n it_o be_v enough_o to_o discourage_v they_o if_o light_n and_o easy_a upon_o those_o that_o be_v strong_a it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o make_v manifest_a their_o virtue_n which_o lie_v hide_v in_o they_o and_o therefore_o he_o proportion_v his_o trial_n of_o our_o faith_n to_o that_o measure_n of_o grace_n which_o he_o have_v vouchsafe_v we_o when_o then_o we_o see_v what_o god_n here_o require_v of_o abraham_n we_o may_v admire_v god_n goodness_n and_o mercy_n towards_o we_o who_o spare_v our_o infirmity_n and_o make_v not_o the_o like_a trial_n of_o our_o obedience_n for_o if_o god_n shall_v lay_v the_o least_o of_o those_o trial_n upon_o we_o which_o he_o lay_v upon_o abraham_n how_o unable_a be_v we_o to_o undergo_v the_o same_o and_o this_o we_o may_v see_v if_o we_o examine_v ourselves_o as_o touch_v our_o obedience_n in_o small_a matter_n if_o god_n do_v but_o visit_v we_o with_o any_o tedious_a and_o long_a sickness_n or_o if_o he_o lie_v upon_o we_o any_o cross_n or_o affliction_n by_o take_v our_o good_n or_o our_o child_n from_o we_o present_o we_o fall_v into_o great_a impatience_n and_o we_o think_v that_o god_n deal_v very_o hardly_o with_o we_o how_o then_o will_v we_o bear_v it_o if_o he_o shall_v make_v the_o like_a trial_n of_o we_o which_o he_o make_v here_o of_o abraham_n and_o if_o he_o shall_v command_v we_o for_o the_o proof_n of_o our_o obedience_n to_o kill_v our_o child_n with_o our_o own_o hand_n and_o to_o offer_v they_o unto_o he_o yet_o abraham_n go_v willing_o about_o the_o same_o if_o the_o loss_n of_o our_o good_n will_v so_o overcome_v our_o patience_n as_o many_o time_n it_o do_v what_o then_o will_v we_o say_v if_o god_n shall_v lay_v upon_o we_o that_o which_o he_o lay_v upon_o job_n when_o he_o take_v both_o his_o good_n &_o his_o child_n from_o he_o and_o when_o of_o

that_o the_o jew_n be_v the_o people_n who_o god_n have_v choose_v to_o himself_o above_o all_o other_o nation_n behold_v say_v moses_n heaven_n and_o the_o heaven_n of_o heaven_n be_v the_o lord_n

which_o of_o the_o prophet_n have_v not_o your_o father_n persecute_v and_o christ_n complain_v of_o they_o o_o jerusalem_n jerusalem_n thou_o that_o kill_v the_o prophet_n and_o stone_v they_o that_o

then_o if_o they_o have_v be_v heathen_a the_o heathen_a shall_v rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n against_o they_o for_o they_o reverence_v their_o priest_n though_o they_o be_v idolater_n the_o mariner_n that_o be_v so_o tender-hearted_a to_o ionas_n shall_v rise_v up_o against_o they_o for_o they_o hazard_v their_o life_n to_o save_v the_o prophet_n though_o it_o be_v for_o his_o sin_n that_o they_o
