q._n what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o adam_n and_o the_o rest_n here_o name_v before_o the_o flood_n live_v so_o long_o a._n first_o because_o they_o live_v sober_o and_o be_v content_v with_o

excellent_a herb_n for_o the_o food_n of_o man_n than_o it_o have_v do_v after_o the_o flood_n five_o god_n will_v have_v they_o live_v so_o long_o that_o mankind_n may_v the_o more_o be_v multiply_v six_o that_o man_n may_v the_o more_o commodious_o find_v out_o art_n and_o science_n which_o they_o can_v not_o do_v without_o long_a experience_n seventh_o the_o moderate_a temperature_n of_o the_o air_n be_v then_o great_a eight_o they_o do_v live_v so_o long_o that_o adam_n night_n teach_v they_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n his_o happiness_n in_o paradise_n and_o rejection_n from_o

those_o that_o moses_n mention_v here_o a._n not_o the_o year_n of_o the_o moon_n which_o we_o call_v month_n for_o by_o this_o computation_n we_o shall_v confess_v that_o kenan_n and_o enoch_n do_v

every_o one_o of_o their_o life_n this_o particle_n and_o he_o die_v a._n first_o to_o show_v the_o inevitable_a punishment_n and_o consequent_a of_o sin_n upon_o all_o mankind_n and_o from_o hence_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o every_o one_o that_o die_v be_v a_o sinner_n even_o child_n for_o death_n be_v the_o wage_n of_o sin_n i_o except_o christ_n who_o die_v not_o because_o he_o sin_v but_o because_o he_o come_v to_o destroy_v sin_n and_o death_n and_o satan_n that_o have_v the_o power_n of_o death_n second_o to_o show_v the_o vanity_n of_o this_o life_n which_o be_v so_o short_a three_o to_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o our_o mortality_n that_o we_o may_v prepare_v ourselves_o for_o our_o end_n all_o must_v die_v even_o those_o be_v go_v that_o live_v so_o long_o and_o although_o that_o we_o think_v they_o live_v many_o year_n yet_o we_o may_v true_o say_v that_o they_o do_v not_o live_v one_o whole_a day_n for_o none_o of_o they_o live_v 1000_o year_n which_o to_o god_n be_v as_o one_o day_n q._n what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o hebrew_a copy_n and_o the_o translation_n of_o the_o septuagint_n in_o the_o computation_n of_o the_o year_n between_o adam_n and_o the_o flood_n a._n we_o can_v say_v that_o those_o seventie_o interpreter_n which_o ptolomey_n do_v employ_v in_o translate_n the_o hebrew_a bible_n into_o the_o greek_a tongue_n do_v err_v in_o their_o computation_n see_v they_o use_v no_o figure_n as_o the_o greek_n and_o latin_n do_v in_o this_o computation_n but_o they_o use_v the_o name_n of_o their_o number_n but_o rather_o we_o think_v that_o those_o that_o copy_v out_o the_o translation_n of_o the_o septuagint_n out_o of_o ptolomeus_n library_n do_v err_v in_o mistake_v the_o greek_a figure_n for_o one_o letter_n or_o figure_n may_v easy_o be_v mistake_v for_o another_o or_o else_o they_o be_v somewhat_o negligent_a because_o they_o think_v these_o number_n of_o year_n not_o to_o be_v necessary_a but_o we_o must_v adhere_v to_o the_o hebrew_n verity_n or_o else_o if_o we_o follow_v the_o septuagint_n in_o their_o computation_n we_o must_v yield_v that_o methusalem_n do_v live_v after_o the_o

that_o he_o shall_v not_o see_v death_n a._n first_o that_o he_o may_v assure_v the_o faithful_a of_o their_o resurrection_n and_o life_n eternal_a second_o because_o the_o world_n do_v degenerate_a
