doctrine_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a of_o good_a and_o so_o the_o rule_n of_o a_o holy_a life_n of_o evil_a and_o so_o the_o revealer_n of_o sin_n and_o transgression_n this_o be_v the_o substance_n of_o that_o which_o we_o call_v the_o moral_a law_n the_o circumstance_n of_o it_o be_v that_o it_o be_v make_v the_o condition_n of_o a_o covenant_n for_o life_n and_o salvation_n and_o so_o require_v of_o all_o they_o that_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n and_o expect_a life_n and_o salvation_n by_o it_o of_o they_o i_o say_v it_o require_v complete_a and_o perfect_a obedience_n otherwise_o no_o hope_n to_o obtain_v their_o expectation_n nay_o more_o it_o exact_v this_o obedience_n under_o a_o curse_n so_o that_o in_o case_n of_o disobedience_n not_o only_o shall_v they_o fail_v of_o life_n but_o come_v under_o the_o condemnation_n of_o death_n and_o this_o be_v that_o that_o prove_v the_o ruin_n of_o man_n in_o the_o constitution_n of_o the_o church_n of_o israel_n the_o ceremonial_a law_n be_v add_v this_o set_v down_o that_o form_n of_o worship_n and_o service_n of_o god_n in_o the_o right_a observation_n whereof_o they_o may_v find_v both_o expiation_n of_o

so_o that_o this_o become_v a_o yoke_n of_o bondage_n to_o the_o church_n of_o israel_n especial_o in_o the_o latter_a age_n thereof_o when_o they_o of_o that_o nation_n be_v scatter_v among_o the_o

of_o who_o death_n be_v become_v the_o only_a expiation_n for_o all_o transgression_n and_o the_o only_a way_n and_o mean_v of_o acceptation_n in_o the_o performance_n of_o all_o duty_n whatsoever_o
