therefore_o say_v god_n in_o this_o sense_n i_o will_v have_v mercy_n and_o not_o sacrifice_v 3._o not_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v of_o your_o own_o they_o have_v many_o sacrifice_n of_o their_o own_o

get_v the_o jew_n be_v a_o very_a oppress_a grind_a people_n they_o will_v be_v much_o in_o sacrifice_n but_o it_o be_v out_o of_o the_o right_n of_o the_o poor_a they_o will_v oppress_v and_o grind_v

comparative_o mercy_n rather_o than_o sacrifice_v this_o negative_a in_o scripture_n be_v often_o set_v out_o for_o half_a the_o thing_n itself_o as_o in_o prov._n 8.10_o receive_v instruction_n and_o not_o silver_n and_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n rather_o than_o fine_a gold_n receive_v instruction_n not_o silver_n that_o be_v rather_o than_o silver_n god_n require_v of_o knowledge_n do_v not_o forbid_v man_n seek_v estate_n but_o it_o show_v we_o rather_o that_o knowledge_n be_v to_o be_v choose_v before_o it_o so_o paul_n be_v send_v to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o not_o to_o baptize_v that_o be_v rather_o than_o to_o baptize_v for_o paul_n do_v baptize_v in_o some_o place_n so_o say_v god_n here_o i_o will_v have_v mercy_n and_o not_o sacrifice_v that_o be_v let_v i_o have_v both_o but_o if_o both_o can_v be_v have_v let_v i_o have_v mercy_n of_o the_o two_o i_o do_v so_o much_o delight_n in_o it_o that_o if_o i_o can_v have_v mercy_n and_o sacrifice_n together_o let_v i_o not_o miss_v of_o mercy_n quest_n 3_o why_o shall_v god_n require_v mercy_n rather_o than_o sacrifice_v answ_n 1_o because_o mercy_n be_v good_a in_o itself_o but_o sacrifice_n be_v good_a only_a in_o

because_o command_v by_o god_n prerogative_n god_n command_n put_v its_o goodness_n upon_o it_o answ_n 3_o mercy_n be_v part_n of_o god_n image_n in_o man_n but_o sacrifice_n be_v not_o and_o by_o how_o much_o more_o excellent_a god_n image_n be_v in_o man_n above_o any_o other_o excellency_n by_o so_o much_o be_v mercy_n more_o excellent_a than_o sacrifice_n answ_n 4_o all_o institute_v worship_n be_v make_v for_o man_n not_o man_n for_o it_o but_o for_o natural_a worship_n man_n be_v make_v for_o it_o and_o not_o it_o for_o man_n therefore_o must_v needs_o be_v more_o excellent_a christ_n reason_n thus_o warrant_v this_o reason_n say_v christ_n the_o sabbath_n be_v make_v for_o man_n not_o man_n for_o the_o sabbath_n now_o this_o can_v be_v say_v of_o natural_a worship_n of_o
