and_o god_n honour_v for_o after_o that_o josua_n have_v quiet_o possess_v the_o land_n of_o canaan_n 10._o he_o build_v a_o tabernacle_n wherein_o to_o call_v upon_o the_o lord_n not_o perfect_a now_o it_o follow_v in_o the_o text_n but_o the_o lord_n be_v angry_a with_o i_o for_o your_o sake_n and_o will_v not_o hear_v i_o etc._n etc._n so_o soon_o as_o moses_n change_v his_o prayer_n god_n

not_o hear_v he_o although_o he_o be_v a_o great_a man_n and_o in_o high_a authority_n yet_o he_o be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o confess_v his_o fault_n which_o he_o may_v have_v keep_v secret_a if_o he_o will_v for_o the_o people_n know_v not_o that_o he_o have_v sin_v because_o the_o sin_n which_o he_o commit_v be_v not_o open_a but_o secret_n yea_o it_o be_v but_o a_o little_a repine_v as_o in_o the_o eleven_o of_o number_n the_o eleven_o verse_n &_o therefore_o moses_n may_v have_v keep_v it_o from_o they_o 13._o but_o because_o he_o will_v not_o justify_v himself_o he_o tell_v they_o that_o the_o lord_n be_v angry_a with_o he_o 22_o and_o because_o he_o will_v not_o have_v the_o people_n to_o justify_v themselves_o he_o tell_v they_o it_o be_v for_o their_o sake_n thus_o when_o moses_n change_v his_o prayer_n god_n will_v no_o long_o hear_v he_o so_o we_o see_v that_o where_o sin_n be_v their_o prayer_n be_v not_o effectual_a so_o that_o if_o we_o will_v hope_v to_o receive_v by_o prayer_n any_o thing_n at_o god_n hand_n we_o must_v first_o remove_v and_o take_v a_o way_n the_o cause_n of_o our_o hindrance_n which_o be_v sin_n before_o we_o can_v receive_v the_o thing_n we_o pray_v for_o 19_o for_o here_o we_o see_v that_o prayer_n which_o before_o pacify_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n 14_o which_o heal_v meriam_n be_v strike_v with_o leprosy_n 14._o which_o raise_v the_o

and_o triumph_v over_o all_o 12._o be_v here_o by_o a_o little_a sin_n quite_o overthrow_v even_o like_o a_o great_a monarch_n poison_v with_o a_o little_a spider_n but_o the_o lord_n be_v angry_a with_o i_o for_o your_o sake_n and_o will_v not_o hear_v i_o god_n when_o moses_n have_v pray_v do_v not_o grant_v his_o request_n but_o be_v angry_a with_o he_o but_o lest_o moses_n shall_v be_v quite_o discourage_v he_o straight_o way_n mitigate_v his_o anger_n &_o bid_v he_o be_v content_a and_o speak_v no_o more_o unto_o he_o of_o that_o matter_n god_n do_v not_o bid_v he_o that_o he_o shall_v not_o pray_v any_o more_o unto_o he_o but_o that_o he_o shall_v pray_v no_o more_o for_o that_o thing_n first_o god_n bid_v he_o to_o be_v content_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v although_o thou_o may_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o land_n yet_o i_o will_v content_v thou_o other_o way_n thus_o god_n will_v have_v we_o in_o what_o estate_n soever_o we_o be_v to_o be_v content_a with_o our_o call_n for_o it_o be_v his_o appointment_n and_o see_v he_o have_v in_o ough_o to_o content_v we_o all_o therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o murmur_v nor_o grudge_v one_o at_o another_o but_o be_v thankful_a unto_o he_o because_o it_o be_v his_o good_a will_n and_o pleasure_v it_o shall_v be_v so_o and_o sure_o moses_n will_v and_o be_v willing_a that_o the_o jew_n shall_v profit_v by_o his_o doctrine_n for_o he_o have_v set_v it_o down_o in_o the_o 20._o of_o number_n twice_o 13._o and_o in_o the_o 27._o 13._o in_o the_o 32._o deut._n 49._o and_o in_o this_o place_n all_o to_o the_o intent_n to_o show_v that_o god_n be_v able_a to_o content_v all_o 49._o he_o be_v not_o like_a to_o jacob_n 33_o who_o when_o he_o have_v bless_v one_o of_o his_o son_n can_v not_o bless_v the_o

that_o weep_v he_o bless_v they_o that_o be_v revile_v and_o suffer_v for_o christ_n sake_n there_o be_v no_o end_n of_o his_o blessing_n because_o his_o mercy_n indureeh_a for_o ever_o god_n be_v so_o merciful_a that_o though_o we_o be_v nor_o able_a to_o pray_v aright_o yet_o he_o consider_v of_o our_o prayer_n and_o turn_v to_o the_o best_a for_o our_o good_a 135._o not_o grant_v our_o request_n many_o time_n but_o a_o better_a thing_n than_o we_o do_v desire_n of_o he_o as_o when_o david_n pray_v that_o the_o child_n get_v in_o adultery_n may_v live_v god_n hear_v he_o and_o do_v consider_v of_o it_o yet_o do_v not_o grant_v his_o request_n but_o a_o better_a thing_n that_o be_v that_o his_o son_n solomon_n shall_v reign_v after_o he_o and_o when_o our_o saviour_n christ_n pray_v that_o that_o hour_n may_v pass_v over_o he_o god_n hear_v he_o and_o do_v consider_v of_o it_o yet_o do_v not_o grant_v his_o request_n but_o a_o better_a thing_n that_o his_o death_n shall_v take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n and_o here_o in_o this_o place_n where_o moses_n pria_v god_n hear_v his_o prayer_n and_o do_v consider_v of_o it_o yet_o do_v not_o grant_v his_o request_n but_o a_o better_a thing_n that_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v go_v into_o heavenly_a canaan_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o god_n be_v so_o merciful_a that_o he_o can_v scarce_o punish_v sinner_n he_o be_v so_o love_a that_o often_o he_o give_v we_o better_a thing_n than_o we_o can_v desire_v who_o then_o will_v offend_v so_o merciful_a and_o love_a a_o father_n let_v we_o see_v god_n be_v so_o merciful_a unto_o we_o take_v heed_n that_o we_o abuse_v not_o his_o mercy_n lest_o in_o so_o do_v we_o provoke_v he_o unto_o judgement_n now_o god_n have_v tell_v moses_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o go_v into_o the_o land_n he_o begin_v to_o teach_v he_o how_o he_o shall_v do_v to_o see_v it_o and_o bid_v he_o go_v up_o into_o the_o top_n of_o pisgah_n and_o cast_v his_o eye_n estward_o and_o westward_o and_o northward_o and_o southward_o and_o behold_v it_o etc._n etc._n as_o a_o bird_n stay_v with_o a_o little_a string_n or_o a_o strong_a man_n in_o swim_v hold_v back_o by_o a_o small_a twig_n so_o a_o little_a sin_n stay_v this_o great_a captain_n that_o he_o can_v come_v within_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n first_o god_n be_v angry_a with_o he_o &_o envy_v he_o altogether_o as_o though_o he_o be_v not_o worthy_a so_o much_o as_o to_o go_v up_o the_o mount_n thus_o we_o may_v see_v how_o one_o of_o the_o least_o sin_n be_v able_a to_o turn_v from_o we_o all_o the_o goodness_n &_o all_o the_o favour_n which_o god_n bear_v to_o us._n after_o god_n command_v moses_n to_o go_v up_o the_o mount_n here_o moses_n obei_v god_n commandment_n but_o if_o he_o have_v be_v like_o many_o a_o murmur_a man_n he_o will_v have_v deny_v to_o go_v up_o the_o mount_n say_v what_o banquet_n be_v this_o to_o i_o but_o a_o dainty_a dish_n set_v before_o one_o forbid_v to_o eat_v but_o moses_n have_v rather_o die_v than_o anger_n the_o lord_n again_o when_o he_o have_v bid_v he_o be_v content_a thus_o we_o may_v learn_v of_o moses_n to_o be_v content_a with_o our_o call_n whether_o we_o have_v little_a or_o much_o for_o god_n content_v moses_n as_o well_o with_o the_o sight_n of_o canaan_n as_o those_o who_o possess_v it_o so_o when_o god_n have_v not_o ordain_v we_o to_o see_v great_a substance_n as_o he_o have_v some_o of_o our_o brethren_n yet_o because_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v discontent_n he_o will_v give_v we_o as_o much_o pleasure_n at_o the_o sight_n of_o they_o in_o other_o as_o though_o we_o ourselves_o enjoy_v they_o so_o god_n contenth_fw-mi moses_n and_o he_o content_v josua_n for_o as_o josua_n come_v into_o the_o land_n as_o moses_n can_v not_o

of_o god_n who_o although_o moses_n be_v very_o old_a yet_o be_v his_o eyesight_n most_o perfect_a insomuch_o that_o he_o can_v see_v far_o than_o any_o of_o all_o his_o company_n for_o 26._o be_v

how_o we_o have_v break_v promise_n with_o he_o then_o we_o give_v ourselves_o to_o god_n but_o since_o we_o have_v give_v ourselves_o to_o sin_n then_o we_o promise_v to_o renounce_v the_o world_n

you_o shall_v see_v whether_o any_o man_n may_v wish_v to_o die_v three_o because_o after_o his_o dissolution_n he_o hope_v to_o be_v with_o christ_n you_o shall_v see_v the_o diversity_n of_o

you_o to_o god_n i_o desire_v to_o be_v dissolve_v 10._o before_o christ_n come_n when_o the_o king_n or_o patriarch_n die_v it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o go_v to_o their_o father_n 37_o as_o we_o

not_o to_o go_v to_o christ_n although_o if_o they_o go_v to_o heaven_n they_o must_v needs_o go_v to_o christ_n because_o christ_n touch_v his_o godhead_n be_v always_o in_o heaven_n i_o desire_v to_o be_v dissolve_v as_o the_o worldly_a long_o for_o christ_n to_o come_v to_o they_o so_o the_o faithful_a long_o to_o go_v to_o christ_n for_o unless_o we_o ascend_v to_o he_o as_o he_o descend_v to_o we_o his_o descend_v be_v in_o vain_a because_o he_o come_v down_o that_o we_o may_v go_v up_o he_o descend_v to_o take_v our_o flesh_n we_o ascend_v to_o take_v his_o kingdom_n he_o descend_v

to_o our_o comforter_n to_o angel_n to_o saint_n to_o eternal_a life_n therefore_o good_a cause_n have_v paul_n to_o desire_v to_o be_v with_o christ_n that_o he_o may_v be_v at_o rest_n for_o no_o

this_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o good_a lesson_n for_o sickeman_n when_o they_o can_v live_v no_o long_o then_o to_o be_v with_o christ_n be_v better_o then_o to_o be_v with_o the_o glutton_n which_o
