shall_v live_v together_o with_o my_o dead_a body_n shall_v they_o rise_v esa_n 26.19_o where_o the_o prophet_n testify_v without_o any_o figure_n his_o hope_n in_o the_o resurrection_n both_o of_o his_o own_o body_n and_o the_o body_n of_o all_o believer_n his_o drift_n be_v to_o prove_v that_o same_o thing_n whereof_o we_o speak_v before_o out_o of_o ezechiel_n namely_o the_o restore_n of_o israel_n after_o their_o long_a captivity_n in_o babylon_n where_o he_o show_v that_o as_o herb_n which_o in_o winter_n seem_v dead_a be_v fresh_a again_o in_o the_o spring_n so_o the_o people_n who_o seem_v to_o die_v as_o winter_n herb_n in_o their_o captivity_n shall_v in_o the_o spring_n of_o their_o return_n rise_v as_o it_o be_v from_o death_n to_o life_n and_o yet_o he_o plain_o show_v that_o the_o body_n of_o the_o faithful_a though_o they_o seem_v utter_o to_o porish_v when_o they_o be_v in_o the_o earth_n shall_v rise_v at_o the_o last_o day_n through_o that_o seed_n which_o they_o have_v in_o christ_n daniel_n speak_v yet_o more_o plain_o and_o say_v many_o of_o they_o that_o sleep_n in_o the_o dust_n of_o the_o earth_n shall_v awake_v dan._n 12.2_o he_o say_v many_o

he_o mean_v all_o the_o jew_n gather_v from_o the_o text_n in_o daniel_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o resurrection_n of_o the_o wicked_a which_o also_o they_o do_v from_o the_o first_o psalm_n

resurrection_n psal_n 16.9.10_o martha_n never_o stagger_v at_o the_o resurrection_n but_o confess_v it_o as_o a_o doctrine_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o those_o time_n for_o when_o christ_n have_v say_v thy_o brother_n shall_v rise_v again_o she_o ready_o answer_v i_o know_v that_o he_o shall_v rise_v again_o in_o the_o resurrection_n at_o the_o last_o day_n joh._n 11.23.24_o as_o if_o he_o have_v

his_o dispute_n there_o and_o this_o be_v his_o hope_n that_o he_o have_v towards_o god_n that_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a shall_v be_v both_o of_o the_o just_a and_o unjust_a act._n 24._o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n speak_v of_o the_o manifold_a martyrdom_n of_o the_o saint_n show_v that_o they_o quiet_o endure_v all_o those_o sharp_a storm_n in_o their_o face_n because_o their_o hope_n be_v to_o receive_v a_o better_a resurrection_n that_o be_v better_o than_o any_o deliverance_n here_o heb._n 11.35_o also_o how_o can_v christ_n argument_n hold_v that_o god_n be_v
