A67066 The leper, and the leper's house, cleansed being, an exposition upon some part of the XIVth chapter of Leviticus; the mystery of which is explained and applied to the state and condition of a sinner's becoming a saint. With profitable uses and applications. As also, what chapter may be applied to, as to the cleansing or destroying of any particular church of Christ, in and under the time of the gospel. Divided into ten parts. Written for the information of those which seldom concern themselves about the types and shadows of the Old Testament: very useful for all people. By Thomas Worden, author of, The types unvailed. Worden, Thomas. 1695 (1695) Wing W3578; ESTC R218033 86,936 103

for_o the_o overspreading_a nature_n of_o it_o a_o corporal_a leprosy_n run_v over_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o body_n so_o do_v this_o sinful_a leprosy_n as_o you_o have_v see_v it_o spread_v

take_v its_o rise_n from_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n upon_o a_o double_a account_n first_o naturally_n second_o moral_o first_o naturally_n as_o we_o be_v the_o offspring_n of_o adam_n our_o first_o

to_o beget_v a_o son_n after_o his_o own_o image_n if_o we_o respect_v his_o external_a form_n and_o part_n of_o his_o body_n this_o carry_v no_o such_o note_n of_o observation_n in_o it_o for_z who_o will_v expect_v that_o it_o will_v be_v otherwise_o because_o ordinary_a it_o be_v not_o unless_o the_o birth_n be_v monstrous_a but_o the_o thing_n to_o be_v note_v in_o the_o text_n be_v this_o that_o as_o adam_n by_o his_o transgression_n become_v a_o poor_a deprave_a sinful_a leprous_a creature_n himself_o so_o his_o child_n which_o natural_o spring_v from_o he_o derive_v from_o he_o the_o

upon_o a_o moral_a account_n because_o adam_n and_o all_o his_o posterity_n be_v in_o covenant_n with_o god_n together_o and_o in_o that_o covenant_n both_o himself_o and_o all_o his_o seed_n make_v

spring_v from_o he_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n so_o that_o when_o he_o fall_v we_o all_o fall_v in_o he_o and_o when_o he_o break_v covenant_n with_o his_o creator_n we_o then_o break_v covenant_n with_o he_o and_o in_o he_o and_o consequent_o when_o the_o penalty_n of_o covenant-breach_n which_o be_v the_o curse_n and_o death_n fall_v upon_o he_o it_o fall_v upon_o we_o in_o he_o at_o the_o same_o time_n so_o reason_n the_o apostle_n rom._n 5._o 17._o for_o if_o by_o one_o man_n offence_n death_n reign_v by_o one_o so._n ver_fw-la 18._o therefore_o as_o by_o the_o offence_n

it_o run_v in_o a_o line_n from_o one_o to_o another_o it_o be_v such_o a_o entail_a evil_n as_o can_v be_v cut_v off_o by_o any_o thing_n that_o man_n can_v do_v it_o be_v as_o impossible_a for_o

thing_n at_o all_o it_o be_v the_o order_n which_o god_n have_v plant_v in_o nature_n that_o every_o kind_a shall_v bring_v forth_o his_o like_a therefore_o if_o a_o man_n be_v a_o instrument_n to_o
