people_n out_o of_o the_o captivity_n of_o babylon_n he_o will_v the_o benefit_n of_o his_o deliveraunce_n shall_v come_v unto_o a_o very_a few_o of_o so_o great_a a_o multitude_n which_o may_v just_o

word_n which_o be_v a_o marvellous_a paradox_n or_o strange_a thing_n that_o by_o a_o reason_n add_v he_o temper_v what_o so_o ever_o sharpness_n or_o roughness_n be_v in_o it_o namely_o that_o that_o righteousness_n the_o gentile_n attain_a unto_o do_v consist_v in_o faith_n and_o therefore_o do_v depend_v upon_o the_o mercy_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o not_o on_o man_n own_o worthiness_n and_o that_o that_o study_n of_o the_o law_n be_v in_o the_o jew_n be_v preposterous_a because_o they_o seek_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o work_v and_o so_o they_o labour_v to_o attain_v unto_o that_o whereunto_o man_n can_v not_o come_v yea_o they_o also_o be_v offend_v at_o christ_n by_o who_o only_o we_o have_v entrance_n to_o obtain_v righteousness_n but_o the_o purpose_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o this_o former_a member_n be_v to_o advance_v the_o mere_a grace_n of_o god_n that_o no_o other_o cause_n shall_v be_v seek_v for_o in_o the_o call_n of_o the_o gentile_n than_o this_o namely_o that_o he_o vouchsave_v to_o embrace_v they_o be_v unworthy_a of_o his_o favour_n righteousness_n there_o be_v no_o salvation_n without_o righteousness_n he_o speak_v of_o righteousness_n by_o name_n without_o the_o which_o salvation_n come_v not_o but_o while_o he_o say_v it_o proceed_v from_o faith_n he_o give_v to_o understande_v that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o gentile_n do_v consist_v in_o free_a reconciliation_n for_o if_o any_o imagine_v they_o be_v therefore_o justify_v because_o by_o faith_n they_o have_v get_v the_o spirit_n of_o regeneration_n he_o be_v far_o wide_a from_o the_o mind_n of_o paul_n for_o it_o can_v not_o be_v true_a that_o they_o obtain_v that_o they_o seek_v not_o unless_o the_o lord_n free_o embrace_v they_o stray_v and_o wander_a &_o offer_v they_o righteousness_n whereof_o in_o as_o much_o as_o they_o know_v it_o not_o there_o can_v flourishe_v no_o study_n among_o they_o but_o also_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o the_o gentile_n do_v not_o otherwise_o obtain_v righteousness_n by_o faith_n but_o because_o god_n prevent_v their_o faith_n by_o his_o grace_n for_o if_o by_o faith_n they_o have_v first_o attain_a unto_o righteousness_n this_o now_o have_v be_v to_o follow_v it_o therefore_o faith_n itself_o be_v a_o portion_n of_o grace_n 31_o israel_n in_o follow_v righteousness_n paul_n do_v frank_o denounce_v that_o which_o be_v

with_o despair_n yea_o our_o faith_n be_v support_v by_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n as_o by_o wing_n aught_o through_o all_o impediment_n which_o be_v in_o the_o way_n to_o pierce_v up_o into_o the_o heaven_n indeed_o it_o be_v true_a that_o adversity_n be_v token_n of_o god_n wrath_n if_o they_o be_v esteem_v by_o themselves_o but_o when_o pardon_n and_o reconciliation_n be_v go_v before_o we_o be_v to_o be_v resolve_v that_o although_o god_n do_v chasten_v yet_o he_o will_v never_o forget_v his_o mercy_n very_o he_o admonish_v what_o we_o have_v deserve_v but_o withal_o he_o testify_v that_o he_o have_v a_o care_n of_o our_o salvation_n while_o he_o provoke_v we_o unto_o repentance_n and_o he_o call_v it_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n because_o the_o father_n in_o a_o manner_n do_v

of_o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n our_o faith_n may_v behold_v the_o clear_a countenance_n of_o the_o father_n the_o sum_n be_v that_o this_o faith_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v shake_v with_o any_o adversity_n for_o god_n be_v gracious_a unto_o we_o nothing_o be_v against_o us._n whereas_o some_o take_v the_o love_n of_o christ_n passive_o for_o that_o love_n wherewith_o he_o be_v love_v of_o

any_o thing_n therefore_o that_o it_o may_v appear_v the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n be_v abundant_o sufficient_a unto_o salvation_n he_o teach_v that_o those_o two_o member_n which_o only_o be_v necessary_a unto_o salvation_n be_v contain_v in_o it_o who_o then_o shall_v ascend_v into_o heaven_n be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o say_v who_o know_v whether_o that_o inheritance_n of_o eternal_a

of_o the_o body_n both_o which_o doubt_n he_o teach_v to_o be_v take_v away_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n for_o the_o one_o shall_v bring_v christ_n down_o from_o heaven_n faithful_a

of_o christ_n into_o heaven_n ought_v so_o to_o establish_v our_o faith_n of_o eternal_a life_n that_o he_o in_o a_o manner_n draw_v christ_n himself_o out_o of_o the_o possession_n of_o the_o

to_o make_v his_o death_n void_a and_o in_o a_o manner_n to_o deny_v it_o 8_o but_o what_o say_v it_o that_o negative_a speech_n which_o the_o apostle_n have_v hitherto_o use_v do_v serve_v to_o

also_o his_o meaning_n be_v to_o show_v what_o a_o great_a difference_n there_o be_v between_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n see_v that_o show_v itself_o a_o far_o off_o it_o do_v drive_v away_o all_o man_n from_o come_v unto_o it_o but_o this_o offering_n itself_o at_o hand_n do_v familiar_o invite_v we_o unto_o the_o fruition_n of_o it_o the_o word_n be_v near_o thou_o first_o of_o all_o this_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o least_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n be_v carry_v away_o by_o vain_a circumstance_n shall_v err_v from_o salvation_n the_o bound_n of_o the_o word_n be_v prescribe_v unto_o they_o within_o the_o which_o they_o ought_v to_o keep_v themselves_o for_o it_o be_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v command_v they_o to_o be_v content_a with_o the_o word_n only_o and_o admonish_v they_o that_o in_o this_o glass_n the_o secret_n of_o heaven_n be_v to_o be_v see_v which_o will_v both_o dasill_n their_o eye_n with_o their_o brightness_n &_o astonishe_v their_o ear_n and_o also_o make_v the_o mind_n itself_o amaze_v therefore_o the_o godly_a receive_v a_o excellent_a consolation_n out_o of_o this_o place_n touch_v the_o certaynetie_n of_o the_o word_n namely_o that_o they_o may_v as_o safe_o rest_v therein_o as_o in_o the_o most_o present_a behold_v of_o thing_n or_o as_o in_o any_o thing_n be_v present_a and_o in_o hand_n second_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o such_o a_o word_n be_v propound_v by_o moses_n wherein_o we_o have_v firm_a and_o sure_a trust_n of_o salvation_n this_o be_v the_o word_n of_o faith_n just_o do_v paul_n take_v that_o for_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o law_n do_v not_o pacyfie_v and_o quiet_v the_o conscience_n neither_o do_v it_o minister_v unto_o the_o conscience_n those_o thing_n wherewith_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v content_a yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o he_o exclude_v not_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o word_n no_o not_o the_o precept_n of_o the_o law_n but_o his_o mind_n be_v to_o put_v down_o remission_n of_o sin_n for_o righteousness_n and_o that_o without_o such_o exact_a obedience_n as_o the_o law_n require_v therefore_o the_o word_n of_o the_o gospel_n wherein_o we_o be_v not_o command_v to_o merit_v righteousness_n by_o work_n but_o to_o embrace_v it_o by_o faith_n be_v free_o offer_v suffice_v to_o pacify_v man_n conscience_n and_o establish_v their_o salvation_n and_o the_o word_n of_o faith_n by_o the_o figure_n metonymy_fw-la be_v put_v for_o the_o word_n of_o promise_n that_o be_v for_o the_o gospel_n because_o it_o have_v a_o relation_n with_o faith_n for_o the_o contrariety_n whereby_o the_o law_n be_v discern_v from_o the_o gospel_n must_v be_v understand_v and_o out_o of_o this_o note_n of_o distinction_n we_o gather_v as_o the_o law_n require_v work_n so_o the_o gospel_n require_v nothing_o else_o but_o that_o man_n bring_v faith_n to_o receive_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n this_o parcel_n which_o we_o preach_v be_v therefore_o add_v lest_o any_o shall_v suspect_v paul_n to_o dissent_v from_o moses_n for_o he_o testify_v that_o in_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n he_o agree_v with_o moses_n see_v he_o also_o do_v not_o place_v our_o felicity_n any_o other_o where_o then_o in_o the_o free_a promise_n of_o god_n grace_n 9_o so_o that_o if_o thou_o confess_v this_o also_o be_v rather_o a_o allusion_n than_o a_o proper_a and_o natural_a interpretation_n for_o it_o be_v like_a that_o moses_n by_o the_o figure_n synecdoche_n do_v use_v the_o word_n mouth_n understand_v synecdoche_n be_v when_o by_o one_o thing_n another_o be_v understand_v for_o face_n or_o countenance_n but_o it_o be_v not_o unseemly_a for_o the_o apostle_n to_o allude_v unto_o the_o word_n mouth_n to_o this_o sense_n when_o the_o lord_n publish_v

the_o fruit_n be_v the_o confession_n of_o the_o mouth_n whereas_o he_o put_v confession_n before_o faith_n it_o be_v the_o figure_n anastrophe_n very_o usual_a in_o the_o scripture_n for_o the_o
