gentile_n together_o show_v that_o the_o gentile_n be_v not_o so_o cast_v off_o but_o that_o as_o to_o what_o be_v the_o main_a and_o principal_a thing_n to_o wit_v the_o word_n of_o faith_n the_o

believe_v on_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v ashamed_a now_o in_o the_o 3._o and_o 4._o chapter_n he_o give_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o jew_n who_o seek_v after_o righteousness_n do_v not_o attain_v it_o even_o because_o they_o seek_v it_o not_o in_o christ_n but_o in_o the_o law_n and_o the_o legal_a ministration_n whereas_o god_n have_v not_o appoint_v that_o for_o righteousness_n but_o to_o point_n

they_o need_v not_o say_v who_o shall_v ascend_v into_o heaven_n for_o it_o or_o descend_v into_o the_o deep_a be_v understand_v christ._n otherwise_o he_o can_v not_o have_v bring_v moses_n word_n as_o the_o reason_n or_o proof_n why_o christ_n be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n as_o here_o he_o do_v again_o he_o affirm_v for_o a_o man_n to_o say_v in_o his_o heart_n who_o shall_v ascend_v

preach_v he_o near_o unto_o man_n than_o either_o heaven_n or_o the_o grave_n the_o word_n be_v nigh_o unto_o thou_o even_o in_o thy_o heart_n and_o in_o thy_o mouth_n some_o may_v say_v how_o be_v

nigh_o unto_o thou_o as_o thou_o can_v desire_v he_o as_o the_o very_a meat_n when_o it_o be_v in_o thy_o mouth_n yea_o he_o be_v yet_o noarer_n even_o in_o thy_o heart_n for_o now_o the_o meat_n may_v be_v put_v into_o the_o mouth_n and_o yet_o because_o of_o weakness_n or_o some_o impediment_n in_o the_o body_n the_o virtue_n &_o strength_n of_o it_o may_v be_v hinder_v to_o go_v unto_o the_o heart_n for_o the_o strengthen_n &_o comfort_v or_o quicken_n of_o the_o same_o &_o so_o though_o it_o be_v in_o the_o mouth_n yet_o a_o man_n may_v die_v as_o be_v so_o weak_a that_o he_o can_v not_o draw_v the_o virtue_n of_o it_o into_o his_o heart_n and_o indeed_o so_o it_o be_v with_o we_o man_n in_o the_o unconverted_a state_n we_o be_v in_o such_o a_o impotent_a condition_n to_o do_v any_o thing_n for_o our_o selus_fw-la that_o if_o life_n and_o virtue_n from_o god_n be_v not_o bring_v so_o near_o we_o as_o to_o be_v put_v in_o our_o very_a heart_n we_o can_v not_o live_v for_o we_o be_v not_o only_o weak_a and_o sick_a but_o we_o be_v dead_a in_o sin_n and_o trespass_n and_o this_o be_v the_o wonderful_a mercy_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o he_o have_v bring_v this_o bread_n

of_o the_o heart_n in_o live_a word_n which_o be_v spirit_n and_o life_n have_v of_o the_o very_a virtue_n of_o the_o divine_a life_n in_o they_o which_o as_o they_o be_v a_o most_o sweet_a and_o

more_o abundant_o in_o the_o power_n of_o that_o life_n which_o have_v quicken_v they_o and_o thus_o the_o word_n spring_v up_o from_o the_o heart_n into_o the_o mouth_n but_o here_o it_o as_o it_o

now_o that_o this_o be_v the_o privilege_n of_o the_o gentile_n no_o less_o then_o of_o the_o jew_n to_o have_v this_o word_n so_o near_o unto_o they_o as_o to_o be_v in_o the_o mouth_n and_o in_o

send_v unto_o they_o for_o at_o this_o time_n the_o gospel_n as_o to_o its_o outward_a administration_n have_v not_o go_v over_o all_o the_o world_n but_o this_o he_o giu_v for_o the_o direct_a and_o positive_a answer_n but_o they_o have_v not_o all_o obey_v the_o gospel_n etc._n etc._n so_o then_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v and_o hear_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n so_o he_o grant_v that_o they_o can_v not_o believe_v without_o hear_v and_o that_o they_o can_v not_o hear_v without_o a_o preacher_n which_o preacher_n he_o do_v not_o say_v be_v any_o man_n send_v unto_o they_o by_o who_o they_o

hear_v by_o the_o word_n even_o that_o word_n which_o be_v in_o their_o mouth_n and_o in_o their_o heart_n therefore_o he_o add_v but_o i_o say_v have_v they_o not_o all_o hear_v yes_o very_o the_o

but_o he_o make_v use_v of_o they_o by_o way_n of_o allusion_n to_o signify_v that_o as_o universal_a as_o the_o language_n of_o these_o creature_n be_v unto_o man_n outward_o even_o so_o universal_a

all_o without_o exception_n of_o any_o so_o that_o all_o among_o the_o gentile_n have_v hear_v this_o word_n both_o believer_n and_o unbeliever_n now_o as_o concern_v the_o believer_n it_o be_v certain_a for_o how_o can_v they_o believe_v in_o he_o of_o who_o they_o have_v not_o hear_v and_o concern_v unbeliever_n it_o be_v as_o evident_a from_o the_o apostle_n word_n who_o say_v they_o have_v not_o all_o obey_v the_o gospel_n for_o esaias_n say_v who_o have_v believe_v our_o report_n now_o mark_v the_o apostle_n do_v not_o say_v they_o have_v not_o all_o obey_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n or_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n but_o they_o have_v not_o all_o obey_v the_o gospel_n so_o that_o the_o very_a gospel_n have_v be_v preach_v unto_o all_o otherwise_o they_o shall_v never_o

their_o sound_n go_v into_o all_o the_o earth_n and_o their_o word_n unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n allude_v as_o be_v say_v unto_o that_o universal_a language_n of_o the_o heaven_n and_o

moreover_o the_o apostle_n proceed_v to_o show_v how_o the_o gentile_n who_o follow_v not_o after_o righteousness_n have_v attain_v to_o righteousness_n even_o that_o of_o faith_n and_o yet_o the_o jew_n miss_v of_o it_o of_o which_o as_o he_o give_v the_o reason_n in_o the_o close_a of_o the_o last_o chapter_n why_o the_o jew_n miss_v of_o it_o viz._n beealls_n they_o seek_v it_o not_o by_o

only_o elect_a people_n of_o god_n and_o the_o gentile_n cast_v of_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v long_o ago_o i_o will_v provoke_v you_o to_o jealousy_n by_o a_o people_n that_o be_v no_o

of_o the_o jew_n for_o of_o the_o gentile_n he_o say_v i_o be_v find_v of_o they_o that_o seek_v i_o not_o but_o to_o israel_n he_o say_v all_o the_o day_n long_o i_o have_v stretch_v out_o my_o hand_n to_o a_o rebellious_a and_o gainsaying_n people_n so_o that_o though_o the_o jew_n weremuch_o seek_v and_o ask_v and_o pray_v yet_o they_o do_v not_o find_v the_o lord_n because_o it_o be_v but_o in_o hypocrisy_n they_o be_v in_o their_o heart_n a_o gainsay_n and_o rebellious_a people_n whereas_o the_o gentile_n many_o of_o they_o have_v not_o such_o a_o show_n of_o external_a devotion_n and_o prayer_n but_o be_v more_o righteous_a in_o heart_n before_o the_o lord_n and_o so_o do_v more_o ready_o find_v he_o and_o know_v he_o yea_o and_o do_v more_o ready_o receive_v the_o testimony_n of_o truth_n as_o it_o be_v outward_o publish_v by_o the_o apostle_n than_o do_v the_o jew_n notwithstanding_o all_o their_o great_a profession_n oh_o that_o the_o late_a professor_n can_v read_v their_o figure_n in_o this_o at_o this_o day_n some_o may_v object_v that_o it_o be_v say_v there_o be_v no_o difference_n betwixt_o jew_n and_o gentile_n but_o the_o same_o lord_n be_v rich_a unto_o all_o that_o call_v upon_o he_o which_o will_v seem_v to_o import_v that_o such_o a_o rich_a mercy_n as_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v only_o give_v to_o believer_n and_o they_o that_o call_v on_o his_o name_n as_o it_o be_v else_o where_o say_v he_o give_v grace_n to_o the_o humble_a whereas_o we_o say_v he_o give_v grace_n unto_o all_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v these_o scripture_n do_v not_o import_v that_o he_o give_v not_o grace_n to_o all_o but_o only_o that_o he_o give_v more_o grace_n unto_o they_o who_o believe_v and_o true_o call_v upon_o he_o and_o be_v humble_a even_o to_o

that_o they_o may_v become_v believer_n and_o true_a and_o humble_a seeker_n of_o he_o as_o many_o have_v become_v such_o who_o be_v as_o bad_a as_o any_o but_o who_o do_v resist_v the_o lord_n and_o
