for_o they_o the_o mediator_n also_o this_o be_v manifest_a from_o the_o connexion_n of_o these_o word_n with_o the_o former_a there_o be_v one_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n who_o give_v himself_o a_o ransom_n for_o all_o whence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o for_o whosoever_o christ_n be_v a_o ransom_n he_o be_v for_o they_o a_o mediator_n also_o and_o

for_o of_o that_o he_o be_v the_o mediator_n he_o write_v his_o law_n in_o their_o heart_n call_v they_o to_o god_n make_v they_o his_o people_n give_v they_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o

whence_o i_o conclude_v that_o if_o by_o all_o man_n in_o this_o place_n we_o understand_v all_o person_n than_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o all_o person_n shall_v certain_o powerful_o and_o

so_o it_o agree_v with_o that_o in_o rom_n 4.5_o he_o justify_v the_o ungodly_a there_o meaning_n be_v when_o we_o be_v without_o strength_n and_o altogether_o ungodly_a one_o chtist_n die_v for_o

and_o that_o which_o follow_v in_o the_o 8.9.10.11_o verse_n will_v justify_v this_o interpretation_n say_v he_o herein_o iâ—_n the_o exceed_a greatness_n of_o god_n love_n towards_o we_o in_o that_o while_o we_o be_v sinner_n ungodly_a christ_n die_v for_o we_o that_o be_v we_o be_v in_o ourselves_o before_o god_n justify_v by_o his_o death_n or_o bloodshedding_n for_o so_o it_o be_v say_v in_o

it_o come_v glorious_o and_o powerful_o upon_o they_o unto_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v mind_v how_o weak_o and_o unwarrantable_o he_o allege_v this_o scripture_n to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v life_n and_o justification_n in_o christ_n as_o he_o say_v for_o all_o person_n when_o as_o it_o be_v most_o manifest_a that_o the_o apostle_n in_o these_o word_n

from_o two_o reason_n first_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o justification_n of_o life_n here_o mention_v it_o be_v that_o which_o in_o the_o high_a degree_n stand_v in_o

the_o application_n of_o this_o justification_n of_o life_n unto_o the_o person_n here_o mention_v in_o verse_n 15._o it_o be_v say_v this_o exceed_a grace_n of_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n have_v abound_v unto_o many_o and_o in_o verse_n 16_o it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v unto_o their_o justification_n and_o in_o this_o 18._o ver_fw-la it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n or_o the_o free_a gift_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o in_o verse_n 19_o it_o be_v say_v that_o by_o this_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n many_o shall_v be_v make_v righteous_a and_o that_o which_o be_v chief_o to_o be_v observe_v be_v that_o in_o verse_n seventeen_o where_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o this_o justification_n and_o salvation_n here_o mention_v be_v speak_v of_o those_o only_o who_o receive_v this_o abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o of_o the_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n which_o be_v by_o jesus_n christ_n those_o who_o receive_v it_o that_o be_v those_o to_o who_o the_o lord_n give_v his_o grace_n and_o righteousness_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v observe_v that_o in_o the_o 15.16_o and_o 17._o verse_n the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v â—_o time_n call_v â—_o gift_n which_o to_o whosoever_o the_o lord_n give_v they_o shall_v reign_v in_o life_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o thus_o in_o the_o open_n of_o this_o scripture_n it_o appear_v that_o by_o all_o man_n in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o this_o verse_n we_o can_v neither_o understand_v all_o person_n from_o

whereas_o he_o further_o allege_v the_o first_o of_o john_n 5.10.11.12_o i_o conceive_v that_o this_o scripture_n teach_v we_o thus_o much_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o that_o believe_v on_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v the_o witness_n in_o himself_o and_o bear_v record_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n to_o wit_n that_o eternal_a life_n be_v his_o gift_n through_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o this_o life_n be_v no_o way_n to_o be_v obtain_v but_o through_o faith_n in_o christ_n only_o and_o that_o therefore_o whosoever_o seek_v for_o life_n and_o salvation_n by_o his_o own_o work_n or_o righteousness_n or_o in_o any_o other_o thing_n which_o stand_v in_o opposition_n to_o jesus_n christ_n crucify_v and_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a he_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n because_o he_o receive_v

the_o matter_n which_o each_o scripture_n speak_v of_o have_v promise_v this_o caution_n i_o will_v now_o close_o with_o the_o word_n themselves_o and_o before_o i_o declare_v what_o i_o conceive_v to_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o they_o reason_n the_o clear_n of_o the_o word_n by_o some_o reason_n i_o will_v propound_v some_o reason_n show_v why_o we_o can_v understand_v they_o according_a to_o their_o sense_n first_o i_o do_v not_o read_v any_o where_o in_o scripture_n that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v call_v a_o taste_n of_o death_n but_o suffering_n bruising_n wound_n oppressing_n travelling_n of_o his_o soul_n and_o the_o like_a second_o if_o we_o take_v the_o word_n taste_v in_o this_o place_n for_o suffer_v then_o as_o i_o conceive_v there_o will_v be_v a_o needless_a repetition_n and_o much_o harshness_n in_o the_o word_n for_o than_o they_o will_v run_v thus_o to_o wit_n we_o see_v jesus_n through_o the_o suffering_n of_o death_n crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n that_o he_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n shall_v suffer_v death_n mind_n now_o he_o suffer_v death_n that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v death_n will_v not_o here_o be_v a_o needless_a repetition_n and_o much_o harshness_n three_o if_o we_o take_v the_o word_n taste_v in_o this_o place_n for_o suffer_v of_o death_n then_o as_o i_o conceive_v it_o will_v follow_v that_o christ_n undergo_v a_o second_o suffer_v of_o death_n to_o wit_n a_o suffering_n of_o death_n after_o he_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n through_o that_o one_o and_o bitter_a suffering_n of_o death_n upon_o the_o cross_n for_o the_o word_n run_v thus_o we_o see_v he_o through_o the_o suffering_n of_o death_n crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n that_o he_o shall_v taste_v death_n if_o therefore_o by_o the_o taste_n of_o death_n in_o this_o place_n we_o understand_v his_o suffering_n of_o death_n than_o it_o follow_v that_o he_o suffer_v death_n after_o he_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n and_o this_o be_v so_o assure_v and_o false_a that_o every_o one_o will_v reject_v it_o four_o to_o come_v now_o to_o the_o true_a and_o natural_a meaning_n of_o these_o word_n i_o conceive_v by_o his_o taste_a death_n we_o be_v not_o to_o understand_v his_o suffering_n of_o death_n but_o a_o effect_n or_o fruit_n of_o his_o suffering_n of_o death_n and_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n and_o

be_v he_o through_o his_o suffering_n of_o death_n be_v crown_v with_o glory_n have_v according_a to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n make_v death_n tasteful_a reader_n although_o the_o word_n all_o in_o

many_o son_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o follow_a verse_n even_o those_o who_o he_o call_v brethren_n and_o child_n to_o christ_n in_o the_o 12_o 13_o and_z 14_o verses_z for_o or_o unto_o all_o these_o and_o every_o of_o these_o he_o by_o his_o suffering_n &_o glory_n have_v make_v death_n tasteful_a &_o savoury_a he_o have_v sweeten_v death_n and_o make_v it_o a_o entrance_n or_o passage_n unto_o
