whatsoever_o those_o false_a teacher_n tell_v they_o of_o circumcision_n or_o of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n in_o general_a therefore_o first_o the_o apostle_n show_v that_o if_o he_o will_v have_v confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n he_o have_v cause_n enough_o so_o that_o he_o may_v if_o he_o will_v have_v confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n in_o these_o word_n though_o i_o may_v etc._n etc._n second_o he_o show_v that_o he_o have_v more_o cause_n to_o trust_v in_o the_o flesh_n than_o any_o of_o those_o false_a teacher_n have_v in_o these_o word_n if_o any_o other_o etc._n etc._n three_o he_o prove_v his_o two_o former_a assertion_n by_o a_o particular_a recital_n of_o certain_a ●hings_n wherein_o he_o may_v rejoice_v in_o some_o of_o which_o he_o be_v not_o inferior_a to_o the_o best_a as_o in_o circumcision_n be_v circumcise_a ●he_n eight_o day_n in_o kindred_n be_v of_o the_o kindred_n of_o israel_n in_o ●ribe_n be_v of_o the_o tribe_n of_o benjamin_n in_o ancientness_n of_o stock_n ●nd_v lineage_n be_v a_o hebrew_n of_o the_o hebrew_n and_o in_o profession_n be_v a_o pharisie_n and_o in_o other_o he_o be_v before_o the_o best_a as_o ●n_o zeal_n have_v persecute_v the_o church_n and_o in_o righteousness_n ●hich_v be_v in_o the_o law_n be_v unrebukeable_a thus_o you_o see_v the_o ●orme_n of_o the_o apostle_n his_o proceed_n and_o the_o division_n of_o these_o word_n into_o their_o branch_n now_o touch_v the_o meaning_n of_o ●hem_n in_o more_o particular_a sort_n first_o in_o the_o first_o general_a proposition_n where_o he_o say_v ●hough_o i_o may_v etc._n etc._n the_o apostle_n meet_v with_o a_o objection_n which_o happy_o the_o false_a teacher_n may_v have_v make_v against_o ●●m_fw-la and_o it_o be_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v thus_o have_v say_v though_o i_o say_v that_o 〈◊〉_d rejoice_v in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o have_v no_o confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n ●et_o let_v no_o man_n say_v that_o it_o be_v because_o i_o have_v no_o cause_n of_o confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n for_o i_o have_v cause_n enough_o so_o that_o if_o i_o will_v i_o may_v not_o only_o as_o a_o christian_a have_v my_o whole_a confidence_n christ_n but_o also_o as_o a_o jew_n have_v confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n second_o where_o he_o say_v in_o the_o next_o general_a proposition_n if_o any_o other_o man_n etc._n etc._n the_o apostle_n not_o ambitious_o but_o be_v force_v thereunto_o by_o the_o ambition_n of_o other_o compare_v himself_o not_o only_o with_o those_o false_a teacher_n but_o even_o with_o the_o best_a of_o the_o jew_n and_o for_o cause_n of_o have_v confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n if_o he_o will_v he_o prefer_v himself_o before_o the_o best_a of_o they_o for_o it_o be_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v thus_o have_v say_v if_o any_o i_o say_v not_o only_o of_o those_o dog_n and_o evil_a worker_n but_o if_o any_o other_o even_o of_o the_o best_a of_o the_o jew_n think_v that_o he_o have_v cause_n of_o confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v in_o any_o outward_a thing_n without_o christ_n i_o may_v have_v more_o cause_n of_o confidence_n in_o outward_a thing_n if_o i_o will_v than_o he_o whatsoever_o he_o be_v three_o where_o he_o say_v in_o the_o particular_a recital_n of_o those_o thing_n wherein_o he_o may_v if_o he_o will_v rejoice_v that_o he_o be_v circumcise_v the_o eight_o day_n the_o apostle_n set_v down_o his_o first_o

be_v circumcise_v the_o eight_o day_n his_o second_o prerogative_n common_a to_o he_o with_o other_o of_o the_o jew_n likewise_o be_v that_o he_o be_v of_o the_o kindred_n of_o israel_n that_o be_v not_o bear_v of_o parent_n that_o be_v proselyte_n and_o only_o convert_v unto_o jew_n but_o of_o parent_n which_o be_v natural_a jew_n even_o of_o the_o seed_n of_o jacob_n a_o prerogative_n which_o the_o jew_n stand_v much_o upon_o that_o they_o be_v descend_v of_o jacob_n who_o be_v call_v israel_n because_o he_o prevail_v with_o god_n his_o three_o prerogative_n wherein_o he_o be_v above_o many_o of_o the_o jew_n be_v that_o he_o be_v of_o the_o tribe_n of_o benjamin_n which_o his_o tribe_n he_o mention_v both_o for_o the_o dignity_n of_o his_o tribe_n as_o be_v the_o tribe_n whence_o

yet_o more_o excel_v many_o of_o the_o jew_n be_v that_o he_o be_v a_o hebrew_n of_o the_o ebrewes_n whereby_o he_o argue_v the_o ancientnes_n of_o his_o stock_n and_o lineage_n 14.13.10.21.25_o

tongue_n at_o the_o build_n of_o babel_n his_o five_o prerogative_n wherein_o he_o yet_o more_o excel_v the_o most_o of_o the_o jew_n be_v that_o he_o be_v by_o the_o law_n i_o by_o sect_n and_o

in_o the_o scripture_n than_o man_n of_o other_o sect_n his_o six_o prerogative_n wherein_o he_o pass_v all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v his_o zeal_n which_o be_v so_o fervent_a and_o outrageous_o hot_a that_o he_o persecute_v the_o church_n of_o god_n extreme_o or_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o act_n unto_o death_n 11._o gal._n 1.13_o act._n 22.4.26.10_o 11._o bind_v and_o deliver_v

argument_n which_o the_o apostle_n have_v of_o confidence_n and_o rejoice_v in_o the_o flesh_n even_o so_o many_o and_o so_o great_a that_o he_o may_v not_o only_o compare_v with_o the_o best_a of_o the_o jew_n but_o all_o his_o prerogative_n consider_v he_o may_v more_o rejoice_v in_o such_o outward_a thing_n than_o may_v any_o of_o the_o best_a of_o they_o for_o look_v wherein_o any_o of_o

in_o the_o jewish_a religion_n therein_o may_v he_o also_o rejoice_v and_o then_o for_o zeal_n he_o be_v much_o more_o zealous_a of_o the_o tradition_n of_o his_o father_n then_o be_v any_o of_o the_o rest_n be_v even_o mad_a in_o zeal_n against_o the_o christian_n and_o likewise_o for_o holiness_n of_o life_n and_o religious_a observation_n of_o the_o law_n he_o walk_v so_o well_o and_o so_o precise_o as_o that_o no_o man_n can_v except_v against_o he_o or_o reprove_v he_o for_o any_o thing_n that_o way_n hence_o than_o i_o observe_v the_o wonderful_a wisdom_n of_o our_o good_a god_n in_o his_o most_o wise_a dispose_n and_o order_v of_o all_o thing_n for_o the_o behoof_n and_o benefit_n of_o his_o church_n for_o to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o may_v bring_v the_o jew_n from_o that_o vain_a confidence_n which_o they_o have_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o from_o that_o overween_n conceit_n which_o they_o have_v of_o their_o own_o righteousness_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n unto_o

why_o shall_v i_o not_o receive_v instruction_n from_o he_o thus_o i_o say_v they_o shall_v consider_v and_o cause_v their_o ear_n to_o hearken_v unto_o wisdom_n and_o incline_v their_o heart_n unto_o

he_o the_o most_o of_o all_o other_o and_o they_o cry_v away_o with_o the_o apostata_fw-la away_o with_o the_o revolter_v we_o will_v not_o hear_v he_o our_o soul_n loathe_v he_o and_o may_v not_o the_o jew_n even_o with_o the_o very_a same_o reason_n have_v deal_v so_o with_o the_o apostle_n and_o so_o cry_v after_o he_o again_o if_o such_o a_o one_o as_o be_v delight_v in_o their_o folly_n

sure_o they_o that_o send_v away_o such_o as_o arise_v of_o themselves_o seek_v to_o reclaim_v they_o from_o their_o error_n or_o their_o folly_n with_o such_o answer_n they_o do_v therein_o justify_v

and_o as_o it_o do_v or_o may_v concern_v we_o so_o make_v these_o use_n of_o it_o 2._o here_o i_o note_v that_o the_o apostle_n to_o repress_v the_o insolency_n of_o those_o that_o boast_v in_o

they_o whence_o i_o observe_v that_o in_o some_o case_n the_o child_n of_o god_n may_v stand_v upon_o their_o own_o commendation_n and_o be_v not_o to_o spare_v to_o speak_v of_o such_o blessing_n outward_a or_o inward_a as_o the_o lord_n have_v bestow_v upon_o they_o above_o their_o brethren_n our_o holy_a apostle_n we_o see_v do_v it_o very_o often_o in_o the_o lattet_n to_o the_o

1.2_o we_o see_v how_o he_o magnify_v his_o office_n and_o apostleship_n stand_v upon_o it_o that_o he_o be_v in_o nothing_o inferior_a to_o the_o chief_a apostle_n but_o withstand_v peter_n the_o

of_o such_o false_a cavi_fw-la lation_n as_o be_v lay_v against_o he_o and_o partly_o to_o confirm_v such_o weak_a brethren_n as_o such_o argument_n of_o commendation_n may_v somewhat_o prevail_v with_o thus_o than_o we_o see_v that_o the_o child_n of_o god_n warrant_v by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o apostle_n may_v speak_v even_o free_o of_o such_o blessing_n as_o the_o lord_n in_o mercy_n towards_o they_o have_v bestow_v upon_o they_o above_o other_o of_o their_o brethren_n but_o may_v they_o in_o every_o case_n and_o upon_o every_o occasion_n break_v forth_o into_o their_o own_o praise_n no_o certain_o they_o may_v not_o but_o only_o in_o some_o case_n as_o 1._o when_o they_o be_v so_o vilify_v and_o disgrace_v and_o discountenance_v their_o authority_n so_o impeach_v their_o

themselves_o of_o such_o mercy_n outward_a or_o inward_a as_o the_o lord_n have_v vouchsafe_v unto_o they_o so_o our_o apostle_n do_v when_o the_o false_a apostle_n labour_v to_o disgrace_v he_o with_o the_o corinthian_n and_o the_o galathian_o as_o have_v no_o authority_n no_o gift_n of_o knowledge_n or_o eloquence_n 2._o when_o they_o see_v that_o the_o proud_a insolency_n of_o their_o adversary_n that_o exalt_v themselves_o against_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n can_v otherwise_o be_v repress_v so_o our_o apostle_n do_v when_o the_o false_a apostle_n do_v so_o insolent_o brag_v

they_o do_v it_o not_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n require_v it_o then_o may_v they_o break_v out_o into_o their_o own_o praise_n and_o this_o our_o apostle_n show_v to_o be_v one_o cause_n why_o he_o

their_o boast_n may_v make_v for_o the_o edification_n of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n jesus_n then_o may_v they_o boast_v themselves_o so_o our_o apostle_n here_o boast_v himself_o as_o to_o

yet_o count_v all_o those_o thing_n but_o even_a dung_n and_o loss_n they_o also_o by_o his_o example_n shall_v do_v so_o in_o all_o these_o case_n the_o child_n of_o god_n may_v and_o aught_o to_o

compel_v so_o to_o do_v by_o such_o occasion_n as_o now_o we_o have_v speak_v of_o or_o the_o like_a second_o that_o when_o they_o praise_v themselves_o be_v compel_v thereunto_o they_o do_v it_o not_o in_o affectation_n of_o their_o own_o praise_n but_o for_o the_o praise_n and_o glory_n of_o almighty_a god._n here_o then_o let_v not_o any_o proud_a pharisie_n or_o any_o ambitious_a di●trephes_n shroud_v himself_o under_o the_o covert_n of_o the_o apostle_n as_o if_o his_o example_n may_v serve_v to_o he_o for_o any_o defence_n of_o his_o ambition_n or_o pharisaical_a contempt_n of_o other_o let_v not_o that_o man_n of_o sin_n hereupon_o exalt_v himself_o above_o all_o that_o be_v call_v god_n or_o that_o be_v worship_v all_o such_o proud_a and_o vain_a and_o ambitious_a spirit_n as_o vain_o glory_n in_o their_o pedigree_n in_o their_o honour_n in_o their_o riches_n in_o their_o wisdom_n in_o their_o holiness_n in_o their_o zeal_n or_o the_o like_a they_o savour_v
