some_o man_n in_o our_o day_n have_v a_o word_n of_o god_n plain_o say_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v take_v he_o will_v not_o have_v stir_v but_o desperate_o have_v continue_v in_o the_o town_n till_o

shall_v perish_v but_o will_v such_o man_n do_v as_o david_n do_v who_o flee_v out_o of_o the_o city_n and_o escape_v saul_n hand_n so_o let_v they_o forsake_v their_o evil_a way_n and_o turn_n unto_o god_n and_o they_o shall_v be_v save_v but_o it_o be_v further_o add_v that_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n may_v stand_v that_o be_v say_v they_o that_o god_n have_v a_o purpose_n to_o hate_v &_o love_n in_o time_n it_o be_v true_a god_n do_v foresee_v what_o the_o act_n of_o these_o two_o will_v be_v and_o except_o esau_n leave_v persecute_v of_o jacob_n and_o turn_v to_o love_v he_o god_n will_v

must_v be_v show_v unto_o they_o why_o because_o god_n promise_v so_o to_o moses_n and_o he_o can_v lie_v so_o that_o this_o be_v another_o argument_n to_o comfort_n paul_n concern_v his_o kindred_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n not_o only_o that_o promise_n make_v to_o rebecca_n but_o also_o this_o which_o be_v make_v to_o moses_n but_o it_o will_v be_v object_v god_n supreme_a power_n be_v

that_o the_o case_n lie_v here_o paul_n be_v very_o sad_a for_o a_o company_n of_o condemn_a creature_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o chapter_n but_o he_o be_v a_o little_a comfort_v that_o the_o

for_o king_n which_o be_v a_o small_a thing_n now_o the_o case_n of_o this_o pardon_n can_v arise_v from_o the_o creature_n condemn_v but_o out_o of_o the_o king_n mere_a mercy_n the_o apostle_n

be_v such_o a_o great_a sin_n and_o evil_a he_o lie_v under_o as_o first_o the_o persecute_v the_o peculiar_a people_n of_o god_n and_o second_o his_o despise_n and_o vilify_n of_o god_n himself_o

cause_n because_o he_o say_v for_o this_o cause_n the_o cause_n be_v partly_o in_o reference_n to_o himself_o and_o partly_o in_o reference_n to_o pharaoh_n first_o in_o reference_n to_o himself_o two_o way_n as_o be_v express_v in_o the_o follow_a word_n first_o to_o show_v his_o patience_n and_o second_o his_o power_n his_o patience_n in_o forbear_v and_o bear_v so_o many_o abuse_n as_o pharaoh_n offer_v to_o he_o and_o his_o people_n as_o in_o vers_n the_o 22._o where_o both_o these_o particular_n be_v prove_v what_o if_o god_n willing_a to_o show_v his_o long_a suffering_n endure_v with_o much_o patience_n the_o vessel_n of_o wrath_n etc._n etc._n second_o to_o show_v his_o power_n that_o he_o can_v take_v off_o such_o a_o stout_a enemy_n in_o the_o height_n of_o his_o rebellion_n &_o persecution_n and_o that_o he_o do_v not_o only_o to_o deliver_v and_o for_o the_o comfort_n of_o israel_n then_o but_o for_o the_o comfort_n of_o his_o people_n in_o succeed_a age_n which_o be_v the_o very_a cause_n and_o ground_n that_o it_o be_v here_o cite_v in_o this_o chapter_n the_o proceed_n of_o god_n upon_o pharaoh_n that_o as_o their_o god_n deliver_v israel_n from_o so_o potent_a a_o enemy_n he_o will_v also_o at_o last_o deliver_v israel_n from_o all_o the_o edemite_n moabite_n and_o amorites_n their_o enemy_n god_n will_v wound_v the_o head_n of_o his_o enemy_n and_o the_o hairy_a scalp_n of_o these_o that_o go_v on_o in_o their_o wickedness_n as_o he_o do_v unto_o pharaoh_n and_o let_v man_n make_v this_o construction_n of_o all_o god_n deliverance_n to_o consider_v of_o the_o patience_n and_o power_n that_o god_n hold_v forth_o unto_o they_o for_o god_n raise_v up_o of_o person_n give_v they_o power_n to_o amend_v their_o life_n as_o pharaoh_n may_v and_o ought_v to_o have_v do_v but_o the_o second_o consideration_n why_o god_n make_v his_o power_n appear_v unto_o pharaoh_n be_v in_o reference_n to_o israel_n who_o else_o must_v have_v be_v swallow_v up_o and_o this_o prove_v the_o former_a proposition_n more_o firm_o that_o the_o time_n of_o jacob_n love_n must_v be_v the_o time_n of_o esau_n hatred_n for_o the_o deliverance_n of_o israel_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v the_o destruction_n of_o pharaoh_n so_o that_o now_o paul_n argue_v thus_o to_o comfort_v himself_o god_n that_o do_v so_o much_o for_o israel_n of_o old_a in_o deliver_v they_o from_o pharaoh_n will_v do_v as_o much_o or_o more_o in_o deliver_v they_o from_o their_o persecutor_n esau_n and_o the_o like_a this_o be_v plain_o prove_v by_o several_a place_n of_o scripture_n as_o in_o esay_n the_o 10._o vers_fw-la the_o 24.25_o and_o 26._o where_o he_o describe_v the_o manner_n of_o god_n proceed_v in_o the_o second_o place_n to_o be_v according_a to_o that_o of_o egypt_n esay_n the_o 11.16_o esay_n the_o 34._o from_o the_o five_o verse_n to_o the_o end_n and_o this_o deliverance_n of_o israel_n be_v not_o procure_v by_o or_o from_o themselves_o but_o it_o proceed_v from_o the_o breast_n of_o god_n himself_o for_o he_o look_v down_o upon_o pharaoh_n cruel_a deal_n with_o they_o and_o he_o wrought_v their_o deliverance_n only_o they_o be_v to_o do_v what_o he_o bid_v they_o to_o go_v when_o he_o bid_v they_o go_v and_o to_o stand_v when_o he_o bid_v they_o stand_v and_o so_o must_v we_o or_o they_o in_o the_o second_o salvation_n by_o christ_n the_o mercy_n be_v free_a christ_n be_v free_a but_o we_o must_v do_v as_o christ_n bid_v we_o we_o must_v hearken_v to_o the_o voice_n of_o this_o prophet_n in_o whatsoever_o he_o speak_v unto_o we_o act_v 7.37_o and_o as_o it_o be_v then_o to_o israel_n they_o be_v to_o hearken_v unto_o moses_n that_o prophet_n they_o be_v to_o go_v on_o when_o he_o bid_v they_o and_o to_o stand_v still_o when_o he_o bid_v they_o so_o likewise_o it_o be_v now_o so_o that_o therefore_o we_o conclude_v thus_o that_o mercy_n and_o pardon_n be_v free_a it_o be_v not_o of_o he_o that_o will_v nor_o of_o he_o that_o run_v yet_o man_n must_v receive_v it_o or_o else_o he_o shall_v be_v never_o the_o better_o for_o so_o now_o i_o proceed_v to_o vers_n the_o 18._o therefore_o he_o will_v have_v mercy_n on_o who_o he_o will_v and_o who_o he_o will_v he_o harden_v the_o apostle_n be_v now_o about_o to_o describe_v god_n as_o a_o supreme_a majesty_n that_o have_v power_n to_o punish_v or_o

work_n or_o deserve_n yet_o at_o the_o same_o time_n the_o same_o person_n deny_v a_o earthly_a king_n to_o use_v such_o a_o power_n but_o call_v he_o a_o tyrant_n that_o do_v rule_v by_o his_o will_n

it_o be_v by_o no_o other_o mean_n then_o by_o mercy_n and_o deliverance_n for_o all_o the_o while_n the_o judgement_n be_v upon_o he_o we_o find_v a_o softness_n in_o his_o heart_n but_o it_o be_v

a_o just_a ground_n from_o god_n to_o harden_v pharaoh_n heart_n let_v all_o man_n judge_v for_o it_o be_v the_o same_o way_n and_o course_n that_o both_o god_n and_o man_n take_v to_o soften_v and_o we_o know_v by_o experience_n that_o by_o this_o mean_v many_o heart_n have_v be_v soften_v as_o ezekiel_n the_o 16.63_o it_o be_v that_o that_o soften_v saul_n when_o david_n show_v he_o mercy_n in_o cut_v off_o the_o lap_n of_o his_o garment_n only_o when_o he_o may_v have_v slay_v he_o but_o this_o hardness_n of_o pharaoh_n heart_n be_v no_o other_o way_n to_o be_v attribute_v to_o god_n than_o
