that_o when_o he_o shall_v be_v tread_v under_o the_o foot_n of_o man_n he_o will_v execute_v on_o they_o a_o sharp_a and_o grievous_a revenge_n now_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v know_v that_o be_v jealous_a in_o his_o honour_n behalf_n he_o know_v well_o in_o what_o sort_n to_o punish_v the_o idolater_n he_o take_v to_o himself_o the_o name_n of_o god_n which_o import_v force_n and_o strength_n as_o we_o have_v already_o touch_v and_o to_o this_o end_n he_o do_v it_o that_o we_o also_o when_o we_o think_v of_o he_o shall_v join_v these_o two_o word_n together_o for_o moses_n understand_v in_o this_o place_n that_o which_o be_v more_o full_o express_v by_o the_o prophet_n nahum_n ●_o when_o he_o say_v the_o lord_n be_v agelous_a god_o a_o god_n of_o vengeance_n a_o god_n which_o punish_v they_o that_o have_v offend_v which_o reserve_v wrath_n for_o his_o enemy_n a_o god_n which_o shall_v come_v in_o a_o whirl_n wind_n and_o tempest_n the_o prophet_n use_v this_o word_n that_o god_n be_v jealous_a that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o he_o be_v not_o forgetful_a that_o he_o have_v not_o his_o eye_n close_v and_o shut_v up_o when_o man_n contemn_v he_o but_o that_o he_o mark_v it_o that_o all_o which_o be_v do_v be_v register_v before_o he_o that_o he_o will_v one_o day_n take_v account_n of_o it_o now_o after_o that_o he_o have_v speak_v of_o this_o affection_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o god_n will_v maintain_v his_o honour_n he_o show_v by_o and_o by_o that_o he_o have_v wherewith_o to_o do_v it_o that_o he_o be_v arm_v with_o force_n and_o might_n to_o punish_v his_o enemy_n and_o that_o they_o can_v by_o any_o mean_n escape_v his_o hand_n and_o to_o that_o end_n he_o speak_v of_o a_o whirl_n wind_n and_o tempest_n see_v why_o he_o speak_v of_o vengeance_n he_o add_v also_o further_o that_o though_o god_n dissemble_v for_o a_o time_n that_o yet_o he_o reserve_v wrath_n for_o his_o enemy_n and_o will_v in_o a_o convenient_a time_n make_v they_o feel_v with_o who_o they_o have_v have_v to_o do_v and_o that_o they_o have_v provoke_v the_o live_a god_o to_o anger_n we_o see_v now_o what_o moses_n understand_v namely_o that_o god_n will_v have_v his_o honour_n esteem_v of_o we_o and_o although_o we_o think_v to_o remain_v unpunished_a when_o we_o have_v pollute_v his_o service_n and_o corrupt_v it_o in_o what_o sort_n so_o ever_o yet_o in_o his_o time_n he_o will_v show_v that_o he_o be_v not_o forgetful_a of_o himself_o but_o that_o he_o will_v maintain_v and_o defend_v his_o own_o honour_n this_o be_v one_o point_n to_o be_v note_v moreover_o he_o adjoin_v that_o he_o be_v also_o mighty_a enough_o to_o put_v in_o execution_n his_o controversy_n for_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o as_o mortal_a man_n which_o can_v but_o fume_v and_o chafe_v when_o their_o honour_n be_v foil_v &_o they_o contemn_v and_o injury_v but_o they_o have_v not_o the_o mean_a to_o work_v the_o revenge_n they_o will_v god_n be_v not_o such_o a_o one_o he_o be_v arm_v with_o might_n and_o power_n to_o confound_v all_o his_o enemy_n true_o we_o must_v not_o imagine_v in_o god_n any_o humane_a affection_n such_o as_o with_o which_o we_o see_v man_n to_o be_v move_v and_o carry_v away_o there_o be_v neither_o anger_n nor_o wrath_n in_o god_n but_o because_o we_o can_v comprehend_v he_o as_o he_o be_v it_o behove_v that_o he_o apply_v himself_o to_o our_o rudeness_n so_o as_o often_o as_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o wrath_n anger_n and_o indignation_n this_o be_v not_o that_o god_n be_v changeable_a that_o he_o resemble_v we_o to_o be_v move_v as_o we_o be_v with_o passion_n for_o he_o always_o abide_v in_o one_o estate_n yea_o there_o be_v no_o shadow_n of_o change_n in_o he_o as_o saint_n james_n use_v the_o same_o similitude_n to_o declare_v that_o in_o his_o nature_n &_o be_v there_o be_v no_o change_n 17._o but_o because_o we_o comprehend_v not_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n but_o by_o these_o word_n of_o anger_n wrath_n and_o indignation_n for_o this_o cause_n the_o scripture_n speak_v after_o this_o manner_n now_o let_v we_o also_o note_v principal_o in_o this_o place_n that_o it_o be_v a_o fearful_a and_o horrible_a thing_n 31._o as_o god_n here_o declare_v to_o fall_v into_o his_o hand_n and_o above_o all_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v pervert_v the_o purity_n of_o his_o service_n by_o our_o wicked_a invention_n rash_o attempt_v that_o which_o our_o brain_n have_v fond_o conceive_v let_v we_o therefore_o know_v we_o shall_v feel_v with_o who_o we_o have_v have_v to_o deal_v and_o that_o he_o be_v a_o great_a master_n than_o with_o who_o we_o may_v think_v to_o dally_v after_o such_o a_o fashion_n now_o withal_o god_n be_v not_o here_o content_v to_o threaten_v they_o which_o by_o idolatry_n be_v turn_v away_o from_o his_o law_n in_o say_v only_o that_o he_o will_v punish_v they_o in_o their_o own_o person_n but_o he_o extend_v his_o vengeance_n to_o their_o whole_a posterity_n i_o be_o say_v he_o a_o jealous_a god_n which_o punish_v the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n unto_o the_o third_o &_o four_o generation_n it_o seem_v at_o the_o first_o sight_n that_o this_o be_v evil_n agree_v to_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n to_o punish_v the_o child_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o father_n &_o mother_n and_o beside_o that_o natural_a reason_n be_v against_o it_o we_o see_v what_o be_v speak_v concern_v this_o point_n to_o the_o prophet_n ezechiel_n namely_o that_o he_o which_o shall_v have_v sin_v shall_v bear_v his_o own_o payment_n &_o that_o the_o son_n shall_v not_o bear_v the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o father_n nor_o the_o father_n the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o son_n this_o place_n then_o here_o which_o may_v seem_v somewhat_o too_o austere_a and_o rigorous_a which_o shall_v seem_v to_o derogate_v from_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n for_o sin_n bring_v his_o hire_n that_o be_v the_o death_n of_o he_o which_o commit_v it_o he_o then_o which_o be_v innocent_a why_o shall_v he_o die_v 23._o and_o albeit_o this_o reason_n be_v not_o sufficient_a we_o have_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n where_o god_n declare_v that_o he_o will_v not_o punish_v the_o innocent_a child_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o their_o father_n for_o he_o reprove_v the_o jew_n for_o this_o blasphemy_n which_o run_v much_o in_o their_o mouth_n and_o whereof_o they_o have_v now_o make_v a_o common_a proverb_n our_o father_n have_v eat_v sour_a grape_n and_o our_o tooth_n be_v set_v on_o edge_n 2._o we_o be_v not_o thus_o rigorous_o handle_v for_o the_o fault_n we_o have_v commit_v for_o we_o have_v live_v as_o behove_v we_o but_o he_o grate_v here_o upon_o the_o sin_n of_o our_o father_n thus_o the_o jew_n murmur_v against_o god_n now_o he_o swear_v that_o this_o blasphemy_n shall_v no_o more_o reign_n among_o they_o but_o for_o all_o this_o when_o all_o shall_v be_v well_o consider_v there_o be_v no_o contrariety_n in_o these_o place_n for_o in_o the_o place_n of_o ezechiel_n god_n understand_v no_o other_o thing_n but_o that_o those_o which_o be_v punish_v of_o he_o can_v allege_v their_o innocence_n that_o they_o can_v say_v that_o god_n do_v they_o any_o wrong_n or_o injury_n if_o he_o use_v they_o sharp_o for_o they_o shall_v find_v themselves_o guilty_a every_o one_o in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v declare_v just_a when_o every_o one_o shall_v see_v that_o he_o exceed_v neither_o measure_n nor_o reason_n now_o this_o be_v also_o certain_a that_o when_o god_n punish_v the_o child_n because_o of_o the_o father_n yet_o cease_v he_o not_o to_o be_v just_a in_o his_o chastisement_n for_o the_o child_n on_o their_o part_n be_v well_o examine_v shall_v be_v find_v faulty_a i_o say_v yet_o further_o that_o they_o can_v no_o soon_o come_v forth_o of_o the_o womb_n of_o their_o mother_n but_o they_o commit_v many_o notable_a and_o manifest_a sin_n and_o such_o as_o may_v be_v know_v to_o the_o whole_a world_n for_o what_o offspring_n be_v we_o what_o bring_v we_o forth_o by_o nature_n but_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n see_v then_o the_o infant_n which_o be_v already_o sinner_n yea_o be_v in_o the_o womb_n of_o their_o mother_n they_o be_v condemn_v before_o god_n there_o be_v yet_o no_o evil_n perceive_v in_o they_o howbeit_o their_o nature_n be_v altogether_o corrupt_a and_o sinful_a they_o have_v a_o seed_n of_o wickedness_n in_o they_o &_o because_o of_o this_o original_a sin_n which_o be_v descend_v from_o adam_n upon_o all_o mankind_n behold_v they_o be_v already_o under_o condemnation_n now_o see_v it_o be_v so_o that_o the_o little_a infant_n be_v not_o exempt_v from_o the_o auger_n &_o maledition_n of_o god_n

be_v the_o child_n of_o adam_n by_o nature_n curse_v and_o inheritor_n of_o death_n we_o have_v nothing_o in_o we_o but_o sin_n &_o so_o consequent_o we_o must_v needs_o be_v accurse_v before_o god_n let_v man_n please_v &_o magnify_v themselves_o as_o they_o listen_v yet_o behold_v their_o birth_n behold_v their_o nobility_n they_o be_v but_o bondslave_n of_o satan_n they_o have_v a_o sink_v &_o

that_o if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o egypt_n be_v a_o house_n of_o bondage_n what_o thraldom_n and_o servitude_n be_v this_o when_o satan_n hold_v we_o in_o his_o bond_n and_o under_o his_o tyranny_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o we_o have_v no_o mean_a to_o escape_v death_n that_o we_o be_v exclude_v from_o all_o hope_n of_o salvation_n that_o god_n be_v our_o enemy_n and_o adversary_n now_o be_v deliver_v from_o all_o this_o be_v not_o our_o redemption_n far_o more_o great_a and_o excellent_a than_o this_o whereof_o moses_n here_o speak_v so_o in_o steed_n that_o it_o be_v sa●ed_v to_o the_o
