of_o the_o covenant_n which_o they_o principal_o signify_v and_o what_o special_a thing_n be_v therein_o require_v i_o will_v therefore_o first_o insist_v upon_o it_o a_o little_a second_o i_o will_v show_v the_o several_a sort_n of_o covenant_n which_o the_o word_n signify_v and_o will_v brief_o describe_v all_o the_o covenant_n between_o god_n and_o man_n three_o out_o of_o the_o several_a description_n i_o will_v gather_v the_o agreement_n and_o difference_n between_o the_o old_a and_o the_o new_a covenant_n and_o last_o i_o will_v make_v some_o use_n and_o application_n of_o these_o consideration_n to_o ourselves_o first_o the_o derivation_n of_o the_o word_n of_o it_o if_o it_o be_v right_o consider_v may_v give_v we_o great_a light_n the_o hebrew_n word_n berith_n be_v of_o some_o derive_v from_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o barar_n to_o purify_v and_o to_o purge_v out_o dross_n chaff_n and_o all_o uncleanness_n and_o to_o choose_v out_o and_o separate_v the_o pure_a from_o the_o impure_a the_o gold_n and_o silver_n from_o the_o dross_n and_o the_o pure_a wheat_n from_o the_o chaff_n the_o reason_n of_o this_o derivation_n be_v two_o one_o because_o god_n in_o make_v the_o covenant_n of_o natural_a life_n do_v choose_v out_o man_n especial_o with_o who_o he_o will_v make_v the_o covenant_n and_o in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n he_o do_v choose_v out_o the_o multitude_n of_o the_o elect_a even_o his_o church_n and_o faithful_a people_n who_o he_o do_v separate_v by_o predestination_n and_o election_n from_o all_o eternity_n to_o be_v a_o holy_a people_n to_o himself_o in_o christ_n the_o other_o reason_n be_v because_o in_o a_o true_a and_o lawful_a covenant_n both_o party_n must_v be_v of_o pure_a heart_n free_a from_o all_o deceit_n and_o sophistry_n and_o must_v deal_v faithful_o and_o mean_v plain_o and_o sincere_o in_o every_o point_n and_o article_n other_o derive_v the_o word_n berith_n of_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o bera_n which_o signify_v both_o to_o elect_a or_o choose_v and_o also_o to_o divide_v or_o cut_v asunder_o the_o reason_n which_o they_o give_v be_v two_o the_o first_o because_o covenant_n be_v not_o make_v but_o between_o choice_n person_n choose_v out_o one_o by_o another_o and_o about_o choice_n matter_n and_o upon_o choice_n condition_n choose_v out_o and_o agree_v upon_o by_o both_o party_n the_o second_o because_o god_n make_v the_o first_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o seal_v it_o by_o sacrifice_n of_o beast_n slay_v divide_v and_o cut_v asunder_o and_o the_o choice_n fat_a and_o other_o part_n offer_v upon_o the_o altar_n and_o in_o make_v of_o great_a and_o solemn_a covenant_n man_n in_o old_a time_n be_v wont_a to_o kill_v and_o cut_v asunder_o sacrifice_v beast_n and_o to_o pass_v between_o the_o part_n divide_v for_o a_o solemn_a testimony_n gen._n 15._o 17._o and_o ier._n 34._o 18_o other_o derive_v the_o word_n {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o of_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o which_o signify_v to_o eat_v and_o refresh_v one_o self_n with_o meat_n whereof_o there_o be_v some_o reason_n to_o wit_n because_o the_o old_a covenant_n of_o god_n make_v with_o man_n in_o the_o creation_n be_v a_o covenant_n wherein_o the_o condition_n or_o law_n be_v about_o eat_v that_o man_n shall_v eat_v of_o all_o tree_n and_o fruit_n except_o of_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a and_o in_o the_o solemn_a make_n and_o scale_v of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n in_o christ_n the_o bless_a seed_n the_o public_a ceremony_n be_v slay_v and_o sacrifice_v of_o beast_n and_o eat_v some_o part_n of_o they_o after_o the_o fat_a and_o choice_n part_n be_v offer_v up_o and_o burn_v on_o the_o altar_n for_o god_n by_o virtue_n of_o that_o covenant_n give_v man_n leave_v to_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o beast_n which_o he_o may_v not_o do_v in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n be_v limit_v to_o fruit_n of_o tree_n and_o herb_n bear_v seed_n for_o his_o meat_n gen._n 1._o 29._o so_o also_o in_o solemn_a covenant_n between_o man_n the_o party_n be_v wont_a to_o eat_v together_o as_o appear_v gen._n 31._o 46._o to_o these_o two_o other_o derivation_n may_v be_v add_v one_o that_o berith_n may_v be_v derive_v of_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o which_o signify_v to_o create_v whereof_o there_o be_v good_a reason_n to_o wit_n because_o the_o first_o state_n of_o creation_n be_v confirm_v by_o the_o covenant_n which_o god_n make_v with_o man_n and_o all_o creature_n be_v to_o be_v uphold_v by_o mean_n of_o observe_v of_o the_o law_n and_o condition_n of_o that_o covenant_n and_o that_o covenant_n be_v break_v by_o man_n the_o world_n make_v subject_a to_o ruin_v be_v uphold_v yea_o and_o as_o it_o be_v create_v anew_o by_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n in_o christ_n the_o other_o derivation_n be_v of_o the_o hebrew_n word_n {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o which_o signify_v fat_a because_o in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n god_n promise_v to_o man_n the_o fat_a of_o heaven_n and_o of_o the_o earth_n that_o be_v the_o most_o excellent_a blessing_n which_o heaven_n and_o earth_n can_v afford_v and_o man_n offer_v up_o to_o god_n the_o fat_a of_o his_o soul_n and_o of_o all_o his_o good_n that_o be_v the_o most_o precious_a thing_n which_o he_o have_v beside_o the_o sweet_a and_o most_o excellent_a and_o precious_a sacrifice_n which_o christ_n offer_v up_o for_o he_o to_o god_n these_o be_v the_o divers_a derivation_n of_o the_o word_n berith_n which_o i_o have_v observe_v out_o of_o the_o writing_n of_o the_o learned_a to_o which_o i_o have_v add_v these_o two_o last_o and_o because_o this_o word_n do_v well_o agree_v with_o the_o sound_n and_o signification_n of_o all_o the_o word_n of_o which_o it_o be_v derive_v by_o several_a learned_a man_n so_o that_o if_o we_o shall_v make_v choice_n of_o any_o one_o derivation_n we_o may_v seem_v to_o reject_v and_o despise_v other_o which_o stand_v with_o as_o good_a reason_n i_o hold_v it_o the_o safe_a and_o sure_a way_n to_o account_n of_o this_o word_n as_o of_o a_o special_a word_n invent_v and_o give_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n himself_o who_o see_v and_o know_v all_o circumstance_n of_o every_o thing_n at_o once_o and_o that_o it_o be_v purposely_o frame_v out_o of_o all_o the_o word_n

it_o may_v seem_v strange_a to_o some_o at_o the_o first_o blush_n that_o one_o word_n shall_v be_v derive_v of_o many_o and_o receive_v a_o mix_a signification_n from_o they_o all_o yet_o if_o they_o
