the_o temptation_n do_v deny_v his_o wife_n and_o say_v that_o she_o be_v not_o his_o wife_n that_o so_o he_o may_v but_o preserve_v himself_o by_o the_o suttlety_n of_o reason_n and_o we_o see_v here_o also_o how_o that_o that_o very_a thing_n by_o which_o he_o think_v in_o reason_n to_o keep_v himself_o from_o mischief_n must_v reprove_v and_o teach_v he_o as_o we_o see_v how_o abimilech_n reprove_v he_o in_o that_o he_o have_v deny_v his_o wife_n with_o who_o he_o have_v almost_o sin_v if_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o warn_v he_o and_o the_o exposition_n be_v this_o 4._o if_o we_o see_v a_o man_n who_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n drive_v and_o by_o who_o he_o oftentimes_o speak_v we_o must_v not_o so_o take_v it_o up_o and_o think_v that_o he_o be_v something_o more_o than_o other_o man_n as_o abraham_n be_v no_o more_o than_o other_o in_o his_o own_o reason_n the_o selfe-reason_n in_o they_o be_v as_o waver_v dubious_a and_o imperfect_a as_o in_o other_o man_n and_o that_o what_o they_o know_v and_o teach_v of_o god_n be_v not_o their_o own_o propriety_n as_o we_o see_v here_o in_o abraham_n how_o he_o out_o of_o fear_n do_v not_o spare_v his_o sarah_n but_o deny_v she_o out_o of_o a_o timorous_a conjecture_n though_o abimilech_n have_v take_v she_o away_o from_o he_o to_o be_v his_o concubine_n that_o so_o he_o may_v but_o live_v and_o it_o may_v be_v well_o with_o he_o for_o her_o sake_n 5._o thus_o god_n prove_v his_o child_n that_o they_o may_v see_v that_o they_o in_o their_o own_o ability_n be_v no_o more_o than_o all_o other_o sinful_a man_n and_o that_o man_n shall_v not_o so_o set_v by_o they_o and_o hold_v they_o for_o a_o god_n thus_o oftentimes_o god_n permit_v they_o to_o go_v astray_o and_o err_v and_o yet_o then_o he_o rebuke_n they_o also_o by_o those_o who_o they_o ought_v to_o teach_v as_o we_o see_v here_o in_o abimilech_n how_o he_o must_v reprove_v abraham_n and_o make_v he_o ashamed_a that_o he_o will_v not_o spare_v his_o wife_n for_o a_o small_a fear_n sake_n but_o will_v deny_v she_o 6._o and_o although_o it_o do_v fall_v out_o that_o sometime_o we_o see_v such_o a_o man_n who_o god_n drive_v to_o err_v yet_o we_o ought_v not_o therefore_o present_o whole_o to_o reject_v he_o and_o set_v he_o at_o nought_o and_o think_v that_o he_o be_v whole_o without_o god_n as_o the_o world_n do_v but_o think_v that_o god_n do_v thus_o set_v his_o child_n under_o the_o cross_n to_o prove_v they_o that_o they_o shall_v learn_v to_o know_v themselves_o and_o then_o the_o sun_n arise_v again_o upon_o they_o as_o here_o it_o do_v upon_o abraham_n when_o god_n have_v suffer_v he_o to_o go_v unto_o gerar_n that_o be_v into_o his_o natural_a rational_a life_n wherein_o he_o commit_v a_o great_a offence_n before_o abimilech_n a_o twofold_a sun_n do_v afterward_o arise_v and_o shine_v on_o he_o viz._n one_o be_v that_o abimilech_n do_v acknowledge_v he_o and_o learned_a to_o fear_v the_o lord_n and_o give_v the_o land_n for_o a_o possession_n unto_o abraham_n he_o give_v he_o also_o gift_n for_o rebuke_n as_o the_o reproof_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v that_o man_n shall_v fear_v at_o god_n reproof_n thus_o the_o sun_n of_o king_n abimilech_n favour_n arise_v upon_o he_o and_o then_o the_o other_o sun_n which_o shoan_n on_o he_o be_v that_o sarah_n conceive_v and_o a_o branch_n spring_v forth_o unto_o he_o out_o
