the_o law_n which_o god_n give_v by_o moses_n from_o these_o two_o last_o difference_n there_o do_v arise_v other_o which_o be_v there_o lay_v down_o by_o the_o apostle_n also_o to_o wit_n that_o the_o old_a covenant_n of_o the_o law_n be_v the_o ministry_n of_o death_n but_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o of_o life_n 2_o cor._n 3._o 7._o the_o old_a be_v the_o occasion_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o the_o ministry_n of_o condemnation_n the_o new_a of_o righteousness_n to_o justification_n the_o old_a bring_v bondage_n the_o new_a liberty_n the_o old_a be_v less_o glorious_a and_o yet_o dazzle_v the_o eye_n of_o the_o israelite_n that_o they_o can_v not_o look_v on_o it_o steadfast_o the_o new_a be_v full_a of_o glory_n and_o yet_o we_o can_v behold_v in_o it_o with_o open_a face_n the_o glory_n of_o god_n verse_n 18._o these_o particular_a difference_n be_v all_o name_v and_o note_v by_o the_o apostle_n and_o they_o do_v arise_v from_o the_o two_o last_o go_v before_o for_o reason_n tell_v we_o that_o because_o the_o old_a covenant_n be_v give_v by_o the_o ministry_n of_o moses_n a_o frail_a man_n and_o be_v dark_a and_o obscure_a subject_a to_o be_v misconstrue_v and_o be_v not_o plain_o preach_v by_o lively_a voice_n but_o only_o write_v in_o dead_a letter_n in_o table_n of_o stone_n therefore_o it_o be_v no_o fit_a instrument_n for_o the_o spirit_n to_o work_v by_o the_o spirit_n do_v not_o work_v by_o it_o such_o plenty_n of_o knowledge_n faith_n and_o other_o grace_n it_o do_v only_o show_v they_o what_o they_o shall_v do_v but_o enable_v they_o not_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n rather_o make_v they_o more_o sinful_a in_o provoke_v their_o corrupt_a naturewch_n more_o lust_n after_o evil_n forbid_v and_o it_o make_v their_o sin_n more_o wilful_a which_o before_o be_v do_v in_o ignorance_n and_o thus_o it_o become_v the_o ministry_n of_o sin_n death_n and_o condemnation_n unto_o they_o it_o also_o bring_v they_o into_o bondage_n by_o show_v they_o their_o slavish_a condition_n and_o give_v they_o no_o grace_n to_o flee_v from_o that_o miserable_a estate_n it_o dazzle_v their_o eye_n because_o it_o show_v they_o the_o glorious_a majesty_n and_o justice_n of_o god_n but_o give_v they_o not_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o strengthen_v their_o sight_n to_o look_v with_o boldness_n and_o comfort_n upon_o god_n majestical_a justice_n but_o because_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v make_v in_o plain_a word_n and_o give_v by_o a_o mediator_n who_o have_v also_o the_o dispose_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o dispense_v of_o spiritual_a grace_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o fit_a instrument_n for_o the_o spirit_n to_o work_v by_o and_o the_o spirit_n go_v forth_o in_o great_a power_n by_o and_o with_o the_o publication_n of_o it_o which_o regenerate_v man_n and_o renew_v their_o heart_n knit_v they_o into_o one_o body_n with_o christ_n give_v they_o the_o communion_n of_o all_o his_o righteousness_n and_o obedience_n to_o justification_n of_o life_n free_v they_o from_o all_o fear_n and_o bondage_n make_v they_o run_v free_o and_o willing_o in_o the_o way_n to_o life_n and_o in_o the_o path_n of_o god_n commandment_n enable_v they_o to_o stand_v bold_o before_o the_o glorious_a tribunal_n of_o god_n justice_n and_o give_v they_o a_o heavenly_a eyesalve_n to_o their_o sight_n that_o they_o may_v steadfast_o behold_v god_n glory_n in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o thus_o in_o those_o respect_v those_o two_o covenant_n do_v much_o differ_v between_o themselves_o the_o last_o difference_n be_v name_v by_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 11_o verse_n and_o it_o be_v this_o that_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o law_n give_v by_o moses_n and_o the_o glory_n thereof_o vanish_v and_o be_v do_v away_o but_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o glory_n thereof_o abide_v for_o ever_o which_o difference_n be_v thus_o to_o be_v

10._o 4_o christ_n be_v the_o end_n or_o fulfil_n of_o the_o law_n for_o righteousness_n to_o every_o believer_n and_o if_o we_o right_o consider_v the_o ceremony_n and_o the_o promise_n give_v to_o

and_o sure_a and_o do_v not_o vanish_v wherefore_o the_o law_n and_o covenant_n which_o god_n give_v by_o moses_n do_v vanish_v and_o be_v abolish_v only_o in_o three_o respect_n first_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o extreme_a rigour_n thereof_o for_o as_o it_o be_v give_v to_o israel_n it_o require_v obedience_n of_o every_o man_n in_o his_o own_o person_n to_o justification_n and_o life_n but_o now_o it_o only_o require_v that_o a_o man_n have_v that_o righteousness_n which_o be_v a_o perfect_a conformity_n to_o it_o though_o perform_v by_o his_o surety_n and_o mediator_n and_o that_o shall_v sufficient_o save_v he_o before_o it_o do_v require_v perfect_a righteousness_n upon_o pain_n of_o damnation_n perform_v by_o every_o man_n himself_o and_o threaten_v a_o curse_n to_o every_o

for_o the_o deed_n because_o now_o we_o be_v not_o to_o obey_v the_o law_n for_o justification_n christ_n have_v do_v that_o for_o we_o now_o we_o be_v to_o obey_v it_o in_o thankfulness_n and_o in_o imitation_n of_o christ_n that_o we_o may_v be_v conformable_a to_o his_o image_n and_o by_o holiness_n make_v fit_a to_o see_v god_n and_o to_o enjoy_v the_o inheritance_n which_o christ_n have_v
