not_o evil_a that_o adam_n in_o abstain_v from_o that_o which_o be_v good_a may_v show_v his_o humility_n to_o his_o creator_n 2._o in_o that_o god_n give_v adam_n so_o easy_a a_o precept_n to_o keep_v only_o to_o refrain_v to_o eat_v of_o one_o tree_n have_v liberty_n to_o use_v all_o the_o rest_n beside_o not_o like_a in_o hardness_n and_o difficulty_n to_o the_o commandment_n give_v to_o abraham_n to_o sacrifice_v his_o only_a son_n herein_o the_o transgression_n and_o disobedience_n of_o adam_n appear_v to_o be_v the_o great_a in_o transgress_v a_o precept_n so_o easy_a to_o have_v be_v obey_v this_o augustine_n lib._n 14._o the_o civet_n dei_fw-la c._n 15._o three_o we_o answer_v with_o tertullian_n that_o this_o precept_n though_o in_o show_v but_o easy_a and_o light_a yet_o contain_v the_o very_a foundation_n of_o all_o precept_n and_o of_o the_o whole_a moral_a law_n for_o therein_o be_v contain_v both_o his_o duty_n towards_o god_n in_o obey_v his_o will_n and_o love_n towards_o themselves_o in_o escape_v death_n which_o be_v threaten_v if_o they_o transgress_v tertul._n lib._n con_v jud._n so_o that_o in_o this_o precept_n adam_n may_v have_v show_v both_o his_o

he_o have_v keep_v the_o commandment_n the_o hebrew_n here_o be_v somewhat_o curious_a as_o r._n isaach_n that_o if_o they_o have_v taste_v only_o of_o the_o fruit_n and_o not_o eat_v it_o they_o have_v not_o transgress_v but_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n do_v concern_v the_o very_a thought_n r._n levi_n by_o eat_v observation_n understand_v the_o apprehension_n of_o thing_n spiritual_a which_o be_v here_o forbid_a but_o we_o take_v it_o rather_o literal_o and_o historical_o that_o god_n give_v they_o so_o easy_a a_o precept_n to_o try_v their_o love_n and_o obedience_n mercer_n qvest._n xxvi_o how_o a_o law_n be_v not_o give_v to_o a_o righteous_a man_n but_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o law_n be_v not_o give_v to_o a_o righteous_a man_n but_o unto_o the_o disobedient_a etc._n etc._n 1_o tim._n 1.9_o and_o adam_n be_v now_o just_a and_o righteous_a and_o therefore_o he_o need_v not_o a_o law_n for_o answer_v whereunto_o i_o say_v that_o the_o law_n in_o two_o respect_n be_v say_v not_o to_o be_v give_v to_o a_o just_a man_n 1._o in_o respect_n of_o the_o negative_a precept_n as_o to_o abstain_v from_o murder_n theft_n adultery_n but_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o affirmative_a precept_n to_o retain_v they_o in_o obedience_n and_o do_v of_o good_a work_n so_o the_o just_a man_n have_v need_v of_o a_o law_n and_o so_o have_v adam_n 2._o a_o just_a man_n need_v not_o to_o fear_v the_o punishment_n of_o the_o law_n as_o s._n paul_n in_o another_o place_n say_v of_o the_o magistrate_n which_o be_v the_o speak_n or_o live_v law_n he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v fear_v for_o good_a work_n but_o for_o evil_a rom._n 13.4_o and_o in_o this_o respect_n so_o long_o as_o adam_n remain_v in_o his_o integrity_n and_o justice_n the_o punishment_n in_o the_o law_n concern_v he_o not_o 3._o and_o a_o righteous_a man_n rather_o of_o a_o voluntary_a disposition_n than_o by_o compulsion_n of_o law_n yield_v his_o obedience_n qvest._n xxvii_o why_o god_n give_v a_o precept_n to_o adam_n foreseeing_a before_o that_o he_o will_v transgress_v it_o fourthly_o a_o question_n will_v here_o be_v move_v why_o the_o lord_n give_v this_o precept_n to_o adam_n which_o he_o know_v he_o will_v not_o keep_v for_o answer_v whereunto_o first_o we_o say_v that_o god_n give_v he_o a_o precept_n which_o be_v possible_a to_o be_v keep_v and_o adam_n have_v power_n to_o keep_v it_o if_o he_o will_v it_o be_v then_o not_o god_n fault_n that_o give_v he_o free_a will_n but_o his_o own_o that_o abuse_v that_o gift_n second_o if_o it_o be_v reply_v why_o god_n do_v not_o give_v he_o grace_n and_o stay_v he_o from_o transgression_n i_o answer_v that_o god_n can_v have_v give_v he_o such_o grace_n and_o to_o the_o angel_n likewise_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o have_v fall_v but_o it_o be_v fit_a that_o god_n shall_v leave_v the_o creature_n to_o their_o free_a will_n and_o not_o hinder_v the_o course_n of_o nature_n which_o he_o have_v make_v three_o though_o god_n foresee_v man_n transgression_n yet_o that_o be_v no_o reason_n to_o withhold_v the_o precept_n for_o then_o god_n shall_v neither_o have_v make_v the_o angel_n nor_o man_n because_o he_o see_v that_o some_o of_o both_o shall_v be_v reprobate_n and_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n god_n shall_v not_o have_v give_v his_o write_a word_n because_o many_o heretic_n do_v pervert_v it_o to_o their_o destruction_n four_o as_o god_n foresee_v man_n transgression_n so_o he_o know_v how_o to_o turn_v it_o to_o good_a as_o in_o show_v mercy_n to_o sinner_n and_o in_o send_v christ_n to_o restore_v what_o man_n have_v lose_v so_o that_o notwithstanding_o god_n foresight_n of_o adam_n transgression_n he_o be_v not_o to_o forbear_v to_o charge_n adam_n with_o this_o commandment_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o great_a good_a which_o god_n also_o do_v foresee_v shall_v ensue_v qvest._n xxviii_o what_o kind_n of_o death_n be_v threaten_v to_o adam_n vers._n 17._o in_o the_o day_n that_o thou_o

some_o have_v think_v but_o the_o death_n of_o the_o soul_n by_o sin_n also_o which_o bring_v forth_o the_o death_n of_o the_o body_n as_o the_o apostle_n show_v rom._n 5.13_o death_n go_v over_o all_o man_n for_o as_o much_o as_o all_o man_n have_v sin_v there_o be_v first_o sin_n in_o the_o soul_n before_o there_o follow_v death_n in_o the_o body_n 3._o neither_o do_v we_o think_v that_o

the_o child_n of_o death_n as_o well_o as_o other_o eph._n 1.5_o by_o adam_n transgression_n we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o wrath_n he_o therefore_o much_o more_o that_o make_v we_o so_o and_o if_o

of_o the_o body_n when_o it_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o soul_n the_o eternal_a death_n of_o the_o body_n in_o hell_n so_o adam_n first_o die_v in_o soul_n by_o lose_v his_o innocency_n he_o die_v

xxx_o whether_o god_n make_v death_n three_o see_v that_o by_o god_n sentence_n death_n seize_v upon_o adam_n the_o question_n be_v whether_o god_n make_v death_n and_o whether_o this_o corporal_a
