family_n be_v the_o society_n of_o diverse_a man_n dwell_v together_o in_o one_o house_n for_o preservation_n and_o happiness_n where_o three_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v explicate_v first_o what_o be_v the_o person_n that_o take_v upon_o they_o to_o constitute_v this_o society_n second_o what_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o this_o society_n and_o their_o humane_a society_n three_o what_o be_v the_o end_n of_o this_o society_n first_o the_o person_n that_o constitute_v a_o family_n or_o family_n society_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v either_o as_o the_o family_n be_v perfect_a or_o unperfect_a 1._o a_o perfect_a family_n consist_v of_o a_o triple_a society_n first_o the_o one_o between_o man_n and_o wife_n second_o the_o other_o between_o parent_n and_o child_n three_o and_o the_o three_o between_o master_n and_o servant_n 2._o the_o unperfect_a be_v when_o any_o of_o these_o society_n be_v want_v as_o when_o there_o be_v not_o either_o child_n or_o servant_n or_o wife_n or_o husband_n in_o it_o the_o apostels_n direction_n here_o do_v form_n only_o a_o unperfect_a family_n for_o he_o give_v not_o direction_n about_o parent_n and_o child_n second_o the_o difference_n of_o this_o society_n from_o other_o be_v in_o those_o word_n dwell_v together_o in_o one_o house_n for_o thereby_o be_v import_v that_o this_o be_v the_o first_o society_n of_o all_o other_o and_o the_o

of_o a_o fraternity_n be_v preservation_n and_o happiness_n and_o so_o to_o speak_v distinct_o there_o be_v three_o thing_n requisite_a to_o make_v this_o society_n happy_a and_o to_o preserve_v it_o so_o happy_a namely_o first_o commodity_n second_o delight_n and_o three_o religion_n unto_o commodity_n be_v requisite_a possession_n of_o good_n and_o the_o mutual_a lawful_a labour_n of_o the_o person_n in_o the_o family_n unto_o delight_n be_v requisite_a quietness_n and_o love_n unto_o religion_n be_v require_v the_o constant_a and_o right_a serve_v of_o god_n if_o commodity_n be_v want_v the_o family_n can_v be_v at_o all_o if_o delight_n be_v want_v it_o can_v be_v well_o and_o if_o religion_n be_v want_v it_o can_v be_v for_o ever_o thus_o of_o a_o family_n in_o general_a and_o two_o thing_n may_v be_v in_o general_n note_v from_o the_o apostle_n charge_v about_o the_o family_n first_o that_o god_n himself_o do_v bind_v all_o sort_n of_o person_n as_o strict_o to_o the_o good_a behaviour_n in_o their_o own_o house_n or_o towards_o one_o another_o as_o he_o do_v towards_o those_o in_o his_o house_n second_o that_o the_o conscience_n be_v bind_v immediate_o from_o god_n to_o nourish_v all_o good_a duty_n and_o this_o be_v so_o prove_v by_o the_o five_o commandment_n and_o pro._n 14.13_o with_o many_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n there_o may_v be_v diverse_a reason_n assign_v why_o god_n give_v commandment_n to_o bind_v we_o to_o domestical_a duty_n reason_n first_o from_o his_o own_o right_a for_o though_o there_o be_v many_o administrator_n as_o of_o a_o church_n a_o commonwealth_n a_o family_n etc._n etc._n yet_o there_o be_v but_o one_o lord_n god_n be_v the_o head_n of_o this_o society_n as_o well_o as_o of_o any_o other_o 1._o cor._n 12._o second_o because_o this_o be_v the_o first_o society_n god_n bring_v into_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o he_o will_v have_v it_o honour_v and_o careful_o preserve_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n the_o first_o society_n in_o paradise_n be_v this_o and_o religion_n be_v profess_v for_o many_o hundred_o year_n by_o this_o society_n only_o even_o till_o the_o people_n come_v out_o of_o egypt_n three_o because_o the_o person_n we_o live_v withal_o in_o the_o family_n be_v the_o near_a companion_n of_o our_o life_n and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o all_o due_a respect_n one_o of_o another_o four_o because_o the_o family_n be_v the_o seminary_n both_o of_o church_n and_o commonwealth_n five_o because_o the_o family_n be_v the_o most_o usual_a place_n for_o we_o to_o practice_v our_o religion_n in_o what_o we_o learn_v at_o church_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n to_o be_v practise_v at_o home_n many_o have_v little_a occasion_n of_o practice_n abroad_o six_o because_o the_o comfort_n and_o contentment_n of_o man_n life_n lie_v much_o in_o this_o how_o be_v the_o life_n of_o many_o man_n make_v uncomfortable_a by_o disorder_a servant_n wicked_a child_n idle_a froward_a vicious_a wife_n god_n give_v the_o woman_n at_o the_o first_o as_o a_o special_a help_n to_o man_n to_o show_v that_o at_o home_o the_o chief_a help_n of_o his_o life_n be_v to_o be_v have_v use_v the_o use_n shall_v be_v therefore_o to_o teach_v christian_n in_o their_o several_a place_n in_o the_o family_n to_o make_v conscience_n of_o their_o deal_n both_o to_o know_v it_o and_o to_o do_v it_o as_o ever_o they_o will_v have_v god_n to_o come_v to_o they_o and_o dwell_v with_o they_o psalm_n 101.2_o and_o as_o they_o desire_v to_o be_v no_o hypocrite_n in_o religion_n

domestical_a disorder_n be_v redress_v the_o family_n will_v never_o be_v establish_v pro._n 14.3_o second_o duty_n it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o inferior_n in_o the_o family_n be_v either_o only_a or_o first_o or_o with_o most_o word_n charge_v about_o their_o duty_n as_o here_o servant_n and_o not_o master_n and_o servant_n and_o wife_n with_o many_o word_n and_o there_o may_v be_v diverse_a reason_n assign_v of_o it_o 1._o to_o preserve_v order_n god_n have_v subject_v the_o inferior_n to_o the_o superior_n and_o the_o superior_a in_o a_o family_n be_v god_n image_n the_o lord_n be_v therefore_o careful_a to_o preserve_v his_o authority_n the_o superior_n receive_v law_n from_o god_n but_o not_o from_o their_o inferior_n the_o inferior_n be_v to_o learn_v their_o duty_n without_o prescribe_v law_n to_o their_o superior_n 2._o because_o the_o disorder_n of_o inferior_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n most_o dangerous_a to_o the_o trouble_v of_o the_o family_n because_o the_o business_n of_o the_o family_n be_v do_v by_o their_o hand_n the_o superior_a provide_v for_o the_o common_a good_a by_o common_a instrument_n if_o the_o master_n of_o the_o family_n

disorder_n in_o the_o believer_n be_v most_o extreme_o scandalous_a 4._o because_o if_o the_o head_n of_o the_o family_n be_v disorder_v the_o orderly_a behaviour_n of_o the_o inferior_n may_v bring_v he_o into_o order_n and_o win_v he_o both_o to_o religion_n and_o good_a order_n at_o home_n a_o conversation_n with_o fear_n in_o wife_n may_v win_v their_o husband_n chap._n 3.1_o 2._o of_o this_o

serve_v 6._o by_o this_o course_n the_o apostle_n do_v labour_n to_o entice_v the_o gentile_n to_o religion_n by_o let_v they_o see_v how_o careful_a they_o be_v to_o breed_v goodness_n and_o love_n in_o their_o wife_n servant_n and_o child_n and_o the_o apostle_n do_v wise_o in_o so_o do_v because_o it_o be_v a_o great_a gain_n to_o religion_n to_o gain_v one_o master_n than_o many_o servant_n because_o such_o a_o master_n may_v do_v more_o good_a the_o use_n shall_v be_v therefore_o to_o interest_n the_o obligation_n upon_o the_o conscience_n of_o wife_n servant_n and_o child_n and_o even_o the_o more_o they_o see_v that_o god_n say_v unto_o they_o the_o more_o they_o shall_v be_v careful_a of_o their_o duty_n and_o ever_o the_o more_o desirous_a they_o see_v the_o lord_n to_o be_v to_o have_v they_o live_v without_o offence_n the_o more_o abominable_a they_o shall_v account_v it_o to_o dare_v to_o offend_v still_o and_o if_o they_o have_v not_o master_n or_o husband_n they_o shall_v strive_v to_o be_v good_a themselves_o before_o they_o complain_v of_o the_o fault_n of_o their_o superior_n and_o shall_v think_v with_o themselves_o if_o
