second_o adam_n we_o find_v they_o unwilling_a to_o speak_v of_o it_o and_o when_o they_o do_v it_o be_v quite_o alien_a from_o the_o scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o that_o chapter_n thus_o to_o we_o they_o seem_v to_o say_v that_o god_n as_o a_o rector_n ruler_n governor_n have_v resolve_v to_o save_v man_n by_o jesus_n christ_n that_o the_o rule_n of_o this_o government_n be_v the_o
