that_o they_o may_v prolong_v thy_o day_n namely_o thy_o parent_n when_o they_o shall_v have_v occasion_n with_o a_o glad_a and_o joyful_a heart_n to_o thank_v god_n for_o that_o comfort_n which_o they_o have_v receive_v by_o the_o obedience_n and_o dutifulnesse_n of_o their_o child_n this_o bring_v with_o it_o a_o blessing_n of_o god_n upon_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n of_o such_o a_o child_n to_o prolong_v his_o life_n in_o all_o happiness_n but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n when_o the_o father_n and_o mother_n through_o the_o rebellion_n and_o obstinacy_n of_o a_o child_n be_v drive_v to_o sigh_v and_o mourn_v before_o god_n with_o a_o trouble_a soul_n that_o he_o that_o shall_v have_v be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a comfort_n be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a grief_n and_o he_o that_o shall_v have_v build_v up_o the_o house_n do_v pluck_v it_o down_o this_o bring_v a_o curse_n and_o provoke_v god_n to_o cut_v of_o his_o life_n untimely_a and_o his_o soul_n also_o unless_o he_o repent_v to_o his_o damnation_n a_o example_n of_o this_o we_o have_v in_o the_o rechabite_v the_o son_n of_o jonadab_n jerem._n 35._o 19_o they_o do_v reverence_v their_o parent_n so_o much_o and_o have_v such_o a_o regard_n of_o he_o as_o that_o when_o he_o see_v the_o excessive_a abuse_n of_o wine_n to_o drunkenness_n and_o the_o abuse_n of_o land_n and_o house_n to_o covetous_a greediness_n command_v they_o to_o drink_v no_o wine_n nor_o build_v no_o house_n nor_o buy_v no_o land_n which_o may_v seem_v a_o hard_a commandment_n abridge_n they_o of_o their_o pleasure_n and_o profit_n yet_o in_o love_n to_o their_o father_n they_o keep_v it_o all_o their_o day_n faithful_o now_o god_n he_o come_v upon_o the_o israelite_n and_o condemn_v they_o by_o the_o example_n of_o jonadabs_n son_n show_v that_o he_o have_v be_v a_o better_a father_n unto_o they_o than_o jonadab_n have_v be_v to_o his_o son_n and_o his_o commandment_n restrain_v they_o from_o no_o lawful_a delight_n but_o only_o from_o sin_n that_o will_v damn_v the_o soul_n yet_o they_o will_v not_o be_v so_o obedient_a to_o he_o as_o the_o rechabite_v to_o their_o father_n therefore_o in_o the_o last_o place_n he_o come_v to_o give_v a_o reward_n to_o the_o rechabite_v and_o say_v that_o jonadab_n the_o son_n of_o rechab_n shall_v never_o want_v a_o man_n to_o stand_v before_o i_o such_o a_o good_a thing_n and_o so_o acceptable_a be_v it_o unto_o god_n that_o child_n shall_v submit_v themselves_o unto_o their_o superior_n and_o so_o joseph_n have_v be_v a_o good_a son_n to_o jacob_n jacob_n prolong_v his_o day_n for_o he_o pray_v so_o hearty_o for_o he_o that_o god_n can_v not_o deny_v always_o when_o joseph_n come_v than_o jacobs_n mouth_n be_v full_a of_o blessing_n and_o he_o be_v so_o nimble_a to_o pray_v for_o he_o with_o his_o whole_a hart_n as_o that_o he_o can_v have_v pour_v out_o his_o soul_n in_o a_o prayer_n for_o he_o to_o have_v do_v he_o good_a and_o these_o do_v not_o go_v into_o the_o air_n and_o vanish_v fruitlesse_o but_o take_v place_n and_o god_n indeed_o bless_v joseph_n in_o himself_o &_o his_o posterity_n abundant_o so_o that_o the_o best_a diet_n and_o the_o best_a air_n that_o one_o can_v live_v in_o to_o make_v child_n have_v a_o long_a and_o happy_a life_n be_v to_o be_v obedient_a to_o their_o parent_n therefore_o let_v child_n learn_v to_o be_v dutiful_a and_o to_o serve_v their_o parent_n as_o paul_n say_v that_o timothy_n do_v serve_v he_o as_o a_o son_n serve_v his_o father_n so_o that_o a_o good_a child_n shall_v be_v his_o father_n best_a servant_n this_o do_v they_o shall_v bring_v god_n blessing_n upon_o their_o soul_n and_o body_n otherwise_o they_o shall_v have_v a_o short_a life_n and_o a_o miserable_a life_n always_o in_o bondage_n to_o some_o foul_a lust_n or_o other_o that_o shall_v play_v the_o tyrant_n over_o they_o and_o revenge_v their_o parent_n quarrel_v upon_o they_o this_o serve_v also_o second_o to_o instruct_v parent_n that_o if_o they_o will_v have_v it_o go_v well_o with_o their_o child_n they_o must_v not_o then_o so_o much_o labour_n to_o get_v great_a matter_n in_o the_o world_n for_o they_o but_o to_o take_v they_o down_o by_o time_n to_o instruct_v they_o and_o narture_n they_o in_o godliness_n and_o to_o labour_v to_o bring_v obedience_n and_o piety_n into_o their_o heart_n or_o else_o be_v they_o as_o great_a as_o they_o will_v they_o shall_v bring_v a_o curse_n upon_o they_o as_o we_o see_v in_o david_n son_n when_o he_o be_v negligent_a in_o bring_v they_o up_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n but_o let_v they_o have_v their_o own_o way_n and_o can_v not_o find_v in_o his_o heart_n for_o foolish_a fondness_n to_o correct_v they_o we_o see_v how_o god_n curse_v pursue_v they_o one_o commite_v incest_n the_o other_o see_v david_n will_v not_o punish_v so_o soul_n a_o sin_n usurp_v authority_n and_o he_o become_v his_o brother_n judge_n and_o executioner_n and_o after_o also_o drive_v his_o father_n out_o of_o his_o kingdom_n and_o seek_v his_o life_n till_o he_o die_v a_o miserable_a death_n and_o a_o strange_a god_n hand_n take_v vengeance_n on_o his_o wickedness_n a_o other_o by_o treasonable_a practice_n come_v to_o death_n by_o his_o brother_n just_o so_o all_o these_o come_v to_o a_o violent_a and_o fearful_a end_n why_o because_o he_o will_v not_o reprove_v they_o nor_o check_v they_o as_o be_v note_v but_o for_o solomon_n his_o father_n instruct_v he_o &_o his_o mother_n instruct_v he_o he_o be_v keep_v in_o &_o not_o suffer_v to_o run_v after_o vanity_n so_o and_o therefore_o we_o see_v what_o blessing_n befall_v to_o he_o &_o what_o a_o curse_n overtake_v the_o rest_n so_o eli_n for_o foolish_a pity_n grow_v so_o tender_a that_o he_o will_v not_o correct_v his_o child_n according_a as_o he_o ought_v therefore_o misery_n come_v upon_o himself_o and_o both_o they_o die_v in_o a_o day_n therefore_o as_o parent_n may_v and_o must_v desire_v a_o happy_a and_o long_a life_n for_o their_o child_n so_o they_o must_v also_o use_v the_o mean_n to_o get_v it_o for_o they_o by_o good_a nurture_n and_o master_v they_o to_o make_v they_o know_v and_o do_v their_o duty_n for_o better_a parent_n master_v they_o by_o correction_n than_o god_n destroy_v they_o in_o indignation_n for_o if_o they_o be_v not_o stay_v at_o first_o they_o will_v proceed_v from_o rebellion_n against_o parent_n to_o rebel_n against_o magistrate_n and_o then_o they_o will_v rebel_v against_o god_n also_o till_o he_o cut_v they_o of_o by_o destruction_n this_o serve_v also_o for_o the_o comfort_n of_o dutiful_a child_n who_o happy_o can_v see_v nothing_o but_o poverty_n and_o be_v destitute_a of_o all_o worldly_a mean_n of_o help_n but_o let_v they_o not_o look_v on_o the_o outside_n so_o much_o turn_v to_o the_o inside_n a_o little_a how_o have_v they_o behave_v themselves_o to_o their_o parent_n how_o have_v they_o deal_v with_o they_o what_o affection_n have_v they_o carry_v towards_o they_o what_o good_a have_v they_o be_v willing_a to_o do_v for_o they_o what_o obedience_n have_v they_o show_v they_o make_v account_n then_o that_o god_n will_v bless_v they_o and_o succour_v they_o that_o they_o shall_v live_v a_o long_a and_o happy_a life_n upon_o the_o earth_n and_o it_o be_v just_a that_o their_o child_n also_o shall_v reward_v the_o like_a to_o they_o to_o cover_v their_o infirmity_n as_o noah_n chrildren_n do_v so_o that_o either_o god_n will_v not_o let_v they_o break_v out_o or_o else_o they_o shall_v hide_v they_o and_o not_o lay_v they_o open_v to_o their_o shame_n but_o those_o that_o be_v now_o so_o rebellious_a as_o they_o be_v sick_a of_o the_o father_n or_o mother_n and_o desire_v the_o parent_n land_n more_o than_o their_o life_n look_v for_o it_o a_o day_n will_v come_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v sick_a of_o their_o child_n to_o but_o here_o seem_v a_o objection_n to_o arise_v we_o see_v it_o far_o otherwise_o ofttimes_o vild_a person_n live_v long_a and_o those_o that_o be_v obedient_a die_v quick_o but_o to_o this_o we_o may_v answer_v that_o the_o reprobate_a life_n but_o to_o heap_v up_o wrath_n against_o the_o day_n of_o wrath_n and_o to_o make_v up_o a_o grea_a measure_n of_o his_o sin_n that_o god_n may_v make_v up_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o vengeance_n so_o that_o the_o great_a promotion_n for_o reprobate_n be_v to_o die_v so_o soon_o as_o they_o be_v bear_v for_o the_o long_o they_o live_v the_o more_o sin_n they_o commit_v and_o the_o more_o shall_v be_v their_o torment_n for_o the_o godly_a if_o god_n take_v they_o away_o soon_o it_o be_v to_o take_v they_o to_o a_o better_a place_n that_o they_o may_v be_v take_v from_o the_o evil_a
sacrament_n be_v for_o he_o be_v command_v of_o god_n how_o to_o make_v it_o of_o what_o figure_n in_o what_o place_n &_o to_o what_o use_n so_o for_o the_o cherubin_n god_n appoint_v they_o likewise_o to_o signify_v that_o god_n have_v his_o wing_n as_o it_o be_v spread_v out_o that_o whosoever_o will_v come_v to_o he_o in_o the_o church_n shall_v have_v protection_n and_o shelter_n from_o he_o at_o all_o time_n but_o this_o make_v nothing_o for_o make_v of_o idol_n to_o worship_v god_n by_o they_o for_o because_o solomon_n make_v a_o image_n at_o god_n appointment_n therefore_o may_v we_o make_v one_o at_o the_o idol_n appointment_n and_o if_o moses_n set_v up_o a_o brazen_a serpent_n by_o god_n direction_n may_v we_o by_o the_o direction_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n that_o

thing_n at_o your_o hand_n we_o may_v answer_v with_o comfort_n thou_o do_v o_o lord_n sith_o then_o the_o worship_v of_o image_n be_v the_o worship_v of_o idol_n as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o

that_o have_v bow_v down_o unto_o they_o kiss_v they_o or_o use_v any_o homage_n unto_o they_o for_o in_o isai_n 66._o 3._o he_o set_v down_o this_o as_o a_o note_n of_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n to_o bless_v a_o idol_n one_o need_n go_v no_o further_o for_o the_o note_n of_o a_o wicked_a sinner_n then_o if_o he_o bless_v a_o idol_n for_o by_o worship_v it_o in_o this_o commandment_n he_o mean_v not_o to_o account_v it_o as_o god_n but_o to_o think_v that_o by_o any_o reverence_n do_v before_o the_o idol_n one_o shall_v get_v some_o help_n that_o this_o shall_v be_v a_o mean_n of_o good_a to_o do_v this_o be_v spiritual_a whoredom_n for_o so_o in_o isai_n 42._o 8._o he_o say_v i_o be_o the_o lord_n i_o will_v not_o give_v my_o glory_n to_o a_o other_o one_o have_v better_a therefore_o die_v the_o death_n then_o use_v any_o bodily_a gesture_n of_o reverence_n to_o a_o idol_n and_o this_o the_o three_o child_n know_v full_a well_o in_o daniel_n for_o when_o the_o king_n command_v they_o on_o pain_n of_o death_n to_o fall_v down_o he_o do_v not_o bind_v their_o soul_n but_o only_o their_o body_n yet_o they_o will_v not_o one_o will_v think_v they_o may_v have_v do_v that_o and_o do_v it_o in_o their_o heart_n to_o god_n but_o they_o know_v that_o if_o they_o have_v defile_v their_o body_n with_o the_o least_o bow_n it_o will_v have_v draw_v god_n curse_v upon_o their_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o therefore_o they_o dare_v not_o do_v it_o therefore_o since_o this_o be_v spiritual_a whordom_n those_o that_o have_v do_v it_o must_v repent_v for_o it_o and_o know_v that_o they_o have_v infect_v their_o soul_n with_o a_o damnable_a sin_n for_o which_o if_o they_o do_v not_o thorough_o repent_v it_o be_v say_v that_o when_o time_n &_o occasion_n shall_v serve_v they_o will_v fall_v to_o it_o as_o fresh_o as_o ever_o before_o for_o than_o it_o be_v not_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n that_o have_v repress_v it_o but_o the_o positive_a law_n do_v a_o little_a restrain_v it_o which_o if_o it_o be_v remove_v their_o lust_n will_v break_v forth_o as_o much_o as_o ever_o before_o as_o it_o be_v see_v by_o the_o israelit_v in_o the_o wilderness_n therefore_o we_o must_v be_v true_o humble_v for_o it_o and_o labour_n for_o assurance_n of_o pardon_n and_o though_o man_n will_v say_v they_o do_v it_o with_o a_o good_a intent_n &_o in_o good_a meaning_n and_o in_o love_n to_o christ_n yet_o all_o these_o excuse_n will_v not_o serve_v the_o turn_n it_o be_v a_o ill_a excuse_n in_o a_o wife_n to_o say_v she_o love_v her_o husband_n exceed_o and_o therefore_o in_o his_o

of_o he_o for_o till_o then_o a_o man_n be_v in_o danger_n to_o fall_v to_o idolatry_n but_o if_o one_o see_v christ_n in_o his_o word_n and_o know_v his_o spiritual_a property_n than_o they_o shall_v

to_o set_v they_o down_o either_o only_a affirmative_o or_o only_o negativelie_a he_o have_v not_o do_v so_o in_o this_o commandment_n but_o to_o set_v the_o deep_a impression_n in_o our_o heart_n have_v set_v it_o down_o both_o affirmativelie_a and_o negative_o keep_v it_o holy_a say_v he_o and_o as_o though_o that_o be_v not_o enough_o do_v no_o manner_n of_o work_n in_o it_o and_o then_o whereas_o other_o of_o the_o commandment_n for_o the_o most_o part_n have_v no_o reason_n annex_v to_o they_o in_o the_o decalogue_n though_o in_o the_o scripture_n else_o where_o they_o have_v this_o and_o the_o second_o commandment_n have_v diverse_a reason_n add_v unto_o they_o that_o man_n may_v have_v a_o great_a regard_n unto_o it_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v do_v any_o thing_n for_o god_n

with_o many_o reason_n now_o then_o to_o forget_v this_o be_v it_o not_o a_o plain_a contempt_n and_o neglect_n it_o follow_v to_o keep_v it_o holy_a now_o the_o lord_n show_v what_o be_v to_o be_v

the_o first_o cause_n of_o all_o and_o that_o at_o which_o god_n strike_v and_o which_o their_o own_o soul_n feel_v most_o heavy_a as_o appear_v by_o the_o daily_a complaint_n when_o they_o be_v

out_o of_o the_o congregation_n yet_o god_n excommunicate_v they_o that_o in_o the_o
