he_o intoo_o my_o account_v or_o i_o will_v enrol_v egypt_n and_o babylon_n amongst_o my_o famyliars_n or_o household_n one_o further_o he_o add_v that_o the_o philistine_n they_o of_o tyre_n and_o

now_o in_o speak_v so_o thereof_o he_o specifi_v a_o singular_a dignity_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o that_o be_v that_o they_o which_o do_v despise_v it_o and_o do_v wish_v it_o too_o be_v utter_o raze_v and_o destroy_v shall_v gather_v themselves_o round_o about_o untoo_o it_o yea_o and_o shall_v account_v it_o for_o a_o great_a honour_n too_o be_v enrouled_a and_o acknowledge_v

glory_n this_o be_v therefore_o asmuch_o as_n if_o he_o shall_v say_v that_o from_o what_o quarter_n soever_o man_n be_v bear_v be_v it_o in_o palestine_n in_o tyre_n or_o ethiopia_n they_o shall_v be_v glad_a and_o well_o a_o pay_v too_o be_v number_v with_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o acknowledge_v for_o citizen_n of_o jerusalem_n the_o rabbin_n of_o the_o jew_n make_v a_o crooked_a

be_v point_v at_o which_o be_v such_o with_o the_o finger_n but_o that_o in_o zion_n there_o shall_v be_v great_a abundance_n the_o christian_a doctor_n with_o one_o consent_n apply_v this_o to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n and_o they_o think_v that_o the_o reason_n be_v here_o render_v why_o the_o stranger_n yea_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o church_n shall_v desire_v too_o be_v ingraff_v and_o inrowl_v therein_o too_o wit_n because_o the_o son_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v bear_v there_o who_o office_n it_o be_v too_o gather_v man_n which_o be_v disperse_v into_o a_o holy_a unity_n of_o faith_n &_o to_o heap_v the_o scatter_a member_n together_o too_o make_v one_o whole_a body_n thereof_o now_o this_o sentence_n indeed_o be_v very_o true_a in_o itself_o but_o it_o agree_v not_o unto_o the_o place_n and_o we_o must_v always_o diligent_o take_v heed_n that_o the_o scripture_n under_o colour_n of_o subtlety_n be_v not_o rack_v too_o any_o other_o sense_n than_o it_o ought_v let_v it_o suffice_v we_o therefore_o too_o have_v the_o plain_a and_o simple_a exposition_n thereof_o that_o everye_o one_o may_v desire_v it_o for_o a_o great_a benefit_n to_o be_v receive_v a_o citizen_n of_o the_o church_n the_o which_o be_v yet_o more_o full_o confirm_v by_o that_o which_o follow_v ver_fw-la 5._o and_o of_o zion_n it_o shall_v be_v say_v this_o and_o that_o man_n be_v bear_v in_o it_o and_o the_o most_o high_a shall_v establish_v it_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o the_o prophet_n continue_v his_o sentence_n mind_v to_o signify_v that_o god_n shall_v gather_v people_n together_o of_o all_o country_n of_o the_o world_n too_o incorporate_v they_o into_o his_o church_n as_o new_a burgess_n and_o citizen_n albeit_o that_o he_o use_v a_o other_o manner_n of_o speak_v it_o be_v because_o stranger_n shall_v be_v repute_v among_o the_o holy_a people_n of_o god_n as_o if_o they_o be_v descend_v of_o the_o stock_n of_o abraham_n he_o have_v say_v in_o the_o former_a verse_n that_o the_o chaldean_n and_o egyptian_n shall_v yield_v themselves_o to_o become_v of_o the_o household_n of_o the_o church-that_a the_o ethyopians_n philistine_n &_o the_o man_n of_o tyre_n shall_v desire_v too_o be_v enrowl_v in_o the_o number_n of_o his_o child_n now_o he_o add_v for_o confirmation_n of_o his_o sentence_n that_o the_o troop_n shall_v be_v great_a and_o infinite_a too_o replenish_v the_o city_n of_o herusalem_n which_o for_o a_o time_n be_v desolate_a and_o to_o make_v it_o most_o populous_a or_o rather_o which_o have_v be_v inhabit_v but_o even_o of_o a_o handful_n

thou_o all_o those_o shall_v be_v gather_v together_o unto_o thou_o and_o in_o the_o 44._o chapter_n he_o use_v the_o same_o manner_n of_o speech_n that_o we_o read_v here_o 44.5_o esay_n 44.5_o or_o at_o the_o least_o which_o draw_v very_o near_o unto_o it_o one_o shall_v say_v i_o be_o of_o the_o lord_n another_o shall_v be_v call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o israel_n and_o another_o shall_v subscribe_v with_o his_o hand_n i_o be_o the_o lord_n and_o other_o shall_v call_v themselves_o by_o the_o name_n of_o israel_n neither_o be_v it_o without_o cause_n that_o the_o prophet_n use_v this_o word_n of_o birth_n signify_v thereby_o that_o the_o chaldean_n the_o egyptian_n and_o such_o like_a shall_v be_v join_v to_o the_o flock_n of_o god_n for_o albeit_o they_o be_v not_o by_o birth_n of_o zion_n and_o the_o natural_a child_n but_o only_o through_o adoption_n must_v be_v incorporate_v into_o the_o body_n of_o the_o holy_a people_n yet_o because_o our_o entry_n into_o the_o church_n be_v as_o a_o second_o birth_n this_o similitude_n be_v very_o apt_a and_o agreeable_a and_o indeed_o jesus_n christ_n plight_v and_o marry_v himself_o with_o the_o faithful_a upon_o this_o condition_n 4.5.16_o psalm_n 45.11_o gal._n 4.5.16_o that_o they_o shall_v forget_v their_o own_o people_n and_o the_o house_n of_o their_o father_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o we_o begin_v too_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o church_n when_o we_o be_v bear_v anew_o of_o incorruptible_a seed_n and_o be_v make_v new_a creature_n and_o sure_o we_o be_v not_o otherwise_o regenerate_v into_o the_o heavenly_a life_n then_o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o church_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n let_v we_o call_v too_o remembrance_n the_o difference_n that_o sainte_n paul_n put_v here_o betwixt_o the_o earthly_a jerusalem_n which_o as_o it_o be_v a_o servant_n can_v but_o bring_v forth_o child_n into_o bondage_n and_o the_o heavenly_a which_o conceave_v and_o bring_v forth_o child_n into_o liberty_n through_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o verse_n there_o be_v a_o promise_n of_o the_o long_a continuance_n of_o the_o church_n for_o oftentimes_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o city_n the_o soon_o they_o creep_v uppe_o into_o sudden_a riches_n and_o greatness_n the_o short_a while_o they_o continue_v in_o their_o prosperity_n to_o the_o end_n therefore_o that_o man_n think_v not_o the_o felicity_n of_o the_o church_n too_o be_v so_o transitory_a the_o prophet_n declare_v that_o she_o shall_v have_v her_o stability_n in_o god_n and_o that_o therefore_o she_o shall_v continue_v as_o though_o he_o shall_v say_v it_o be_v no_o marvel_n though_o other_o city_n be_v always_o shake_v and_o subject_a to_o many_o alteration_n because_o they_o be_v toss_v with_o the_o world_n and_o have_v not_o everlasting_a keeper_n but_o the_o condition_n of_o this_o new_a jerusalem_n shall_v be_v otherwise_v for_o her_o perpetuity_n be_v found_v in_o god_n shall_v stand_v sure_a though_o heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v fall_v ver_fw-la 6._o the_o lord_n shall_v enrol_v his_o people_n by_o writing_n he_o be_v
