her the new name Hevah his faith is fully evident by this because by this new name he did so clearly distinguish her present new Spiritual condition from her corrupted condition Immediatly before this not only the Woman but Adam also were Spiritually dead in corruption and sin but it pleased God to take such a speedy course for their humiliation and conviction and for their reconciliation and conversion by the Seed of the Woman that Adam thereupon in testimony both of his own faith and of his Wifes faith did by way of excellency call her Hevah and so he changed her name from Isha to Hevah that is to say from woman to life And thus we have seen how the Seed of the Woman Christ Jesus did honour his first Parents with the life of faith and as hee did honour them so doubtlesse he did continue to honour all his Natural Parents after the flesh sooner or latter with the like honour of the life of faith and therefore they do ill that make the several wicked Kings of Solomons house in Matth. 1. to bee his Fathers after the flesh Christ came not of Solomons house as the Apostate Jews and some unadvised Christians do hold but he comes of Solomons brother called Nathan and all his Natural Fathers are laid down in Luke 3. and I make no question but he did honour every one of them with the grace of true faith according to his first example and this may teach all good children to honour their Parents with their best abilities Reas 3. It is evident that Adam and Eve were re-created in The conversion of our first Parents is recorded in the Womans enmity against the Serpent and his Seed the day of their Creation and Fall by the word enmity against the Serpent I will saith God put enmity between thee and the Woman At the first the Woman looked upon the Serpent as a faithful and diligent servant for her good and that the Angel that gave it speech was a good Angel and therefore the Woman was in great amity with them and with the Serpents fair and specious perswasions but now God told the Devil in the Serpent that he would from this time forth put enmity instead ●f amity betwixt him and the Woman and betwixt both their Seed● This enmity between the D●vil and the Woman ariseth from two contrary Principles 1 The D●vils enmity against the Woman is because by her re-creation and reconciliation which was effected by her Seed C●●ist he was disappointed of his Head-plot which was to bring the whole race of Man under his power and dominion 2 The Womans enmity against Satan is manifest●d by seeking the ruine of his dominion by advancing the Kingdom and power of Christ in her Soul by getting an assurance of her Redemption from Satans H●ad-plot reconciliation with God pardon of sin and power against corrupt aff●ctions for time to come This holy qualification of enmity which God by his Spirit had now put into Eves Soul against Satans Head-plot is another sure note of her sound conversion which was eff●cted and brought to passe in the cool of the self-same day in which Adam was created and fell D●ubtlesse the Woman did now say in her heart as David once said in Psalm 139. Do not I O Jehovah hate them that hate thee and am not I grieved for those that rise up against thee with perfection of hatred do I hate them they are to me for enemies Psal 139. 21 22. But though the woman was now converted reconciled and justified from the condemning power of her sins yet she was not freed from temporal afflictions and chastisements and therefore it pleased God to lay upon her certain degrees of punishment for her humiliation and upon all her sex for her sake First because she was first in the Transgression God made her desires subject to her husband Gen. 3. 16. Secondly God made her and all her Sex to bring forth children in pain and sorrow But notwithstanding these degrees of her humiliation God hath honoured the woman with a certain special honour above the man because Jesus Christ the Mediator was conceived and born of the seed of the woman alone without the help of man and therefore Adam might not reproach his wise because she was first in the Transgression but he must and did honour her because she was to be the chief outwa●d instrument of Christs Incarnation And secondly because she was made an heir as well as Adam of the promise of life by faith 1 Pet. 3. 7. and in that respect there is now no difference between the male and the female but all are one in Christ Jesus Gal. 3. 28. And the woman also may comfort her self in Christ notwithstanding her painful travell in Child-birth that she shall be saved by the promised seed of the woman if she continue in faith and love and sanctification 2 Tim. 2. 15. Conclusion Having in this Chapter made it evident by three Reasons as I conceive that Adam and Eve were Re-created and effectually converted from Sathan to God in the day of their Creation and Fall It follows by good consequence That God did not ordain the Sabbath in the time of Adams Innocency but after his Fall and Re-creation by the Promised Seed CHAP. III. Proving that Adam and Eve were Re-created before the seventh day namely in the latter part of the sixth day I Will labour to make this evident by a double inference 1 From the word Host and Finished Gen. 2. 1. 2 From the word Had made and Finished Gen. 2. 2. But for the better discerning of the said Inferences I will first labour to explain the text in Gen. 2. 1 2 3. Vers 1. And the Heavens and the Earth were Finished and all the Host of them Vers 2. And before the seventh day God had finished the work that he had made And he rested on the seventh day from all the work that he had made Verse 3. And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it because in it he had rested from all his works which God had created and made Two things must be marked for the better understanding of these words 1 Touching the translation of the word Before in vers 2. 2 Touching the circumstance of time namely after how much time or Chronology of story the second and third verses concerning the Institution of the Sabbath must be placed 1 Touching the translation of the word Before the seventh day vers 2. 1 The Seventy Translators translate it thus In the sixth day God ended all his works they put the sixth day into the Text instead of the seventh day and this they did lest the Heathens at whose request that Translation was made should think that God ended his works in the seventh day 2 Therefore to prevent this and such like grosse mistakes I have made choice to follow Mr. Broughtons correction of the Geneva Translation where instead of In the seventh day he reads Before
