therefore_o if_o the_o natural_a seed_n of_o abraham_n can_v not_o pretend_v a_o right_n to_o new-testament_n ordinance_n by_o that_o title_n much_o less_o the_o adopt_a seed_n by_o any_o such_o way_n of_o natural_a generation_n and_o if_o their_o birthright_n can_v not_o serve_v they_o how_o can_v our_o birthright_n serve_v we_o and_o this_o may_v serve_v as_o a_o answer_n to_o the_o first_o particular_a that_o the_o covenant_n as_o it_o respect_a life_n and_o salvation_n to_o believer_n be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o now_o as_o then_o but_o as_o it_o respect_v external_a administration_n

whether_o circumcision_n be_v the_o token_n sign_n or_o seal_v of_o the_o covennnt_n this_o need_v but_o a_o short_a reply_n for_o we_o find_v it_o to_o be_v call_v the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n gen._n 17.11_o and_o the_o apostle_n rom._n 4.11_o call_v it_o the_o sign_n of_o circumcision_n a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n etc._n etc._n intimate_v by_o distinguish_v between_o a_o sign_n and_o a_o seal_n that_o circumcision_n be_v to_o all_o a_o sign_n but_o to_o abraham_n alone_o a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n and_o we_o find_v circmucision_n never_o call_v a_o seal_n but_o where_o it_o speak_v of_o abraham_n which_o intimate_v that_o it_o be_v only_o a_o seal_n to_o he_o and_o this_o be_v suitable_a to_o what_o chrysostome_n theophilact_fw-mi and_o other_o quote_v upon_o the_o place_n by_o a_o very_a judicious_a pen_n viz._n it_o be_v call_v a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n because_o it_o be_v give_v to_o abraham_n as_o a_o seal_n and_o testimony_n of_o that_o righteousness_n which_o he_o have_v acquire_v by_o faith_n now_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o privilege_n of_o abraham_n alone_o and_o not_o to_o be_v transfer_v to_o other_o as_o if_o circumcision_n in_o who_o ever_o it_o be_v be_v a_o testimony_n of_o d●vine_a righteousness_n for_o as_o it_o be_v the_o privilege_n of_o abraham_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v the_o father_n of_o all_o the_o faithful_a as_o well_o circumcise_v we_o uncircumcised_a and_o be_v already_o the_o father_n of_o all_o uncircumcised_a have_v faith_n in_o uncircumcision_n he_o receive_v first_o the_o sign_n of_o circumcision_n that_o he_o may_v be_v the_o father_n of_o the_o circumcise_a now_o because_o he_o have_v this_o privilege_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o righteousness_n which_o he_o have_v acquire_v by_o faith_n therefore_o the_o sign_n of_o circumcision_n be_v to_o he_o a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n but_o to_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o jew_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n they_o be_v abraham_n seed_n but_o not_o a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n 〈◊〉_d all_o the_o jew_n also_o be_v not_o the_o father_n of_o many_o nation_n and_o jerom_n upon_o gal._n 3._o say_v because_o christ_n be_v to_o spring_v from_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n and_o many_o age_n be_v to_o pass_v from_o abraham_n to_o christ_n the_o

do_v succeed_v in_o the_o room_n place_n and_o use_v of_o circumcision_n to_o answer_v this_o doubt_n let_v we_o consider_v the_o great_a difference_n between_o circumcision_n and_o baptism_n circumcision_n be_v a_o legal_a ordinance_n appoint_v to_o the_o jewish_a males_n reprobate_a as_o well_o as_o elect_n by_o a_o positive_a command_n to_o distinguish_v they_o from_o the_o rest_n of_o
