be_v leave_v to_o their_o own_o judgement_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n of_o admit_v the_o assistance_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n into_o the_o composition_n of_o their_o write_n on_o the_o other_o side_n i_o pretend_v to_o make_v it_o out_o in_o the_o series_n of_o this_o discourse_n that_o without_o that_o assistance_n the_o scripture_n be_v of_o little_a use_n now_o as_o the_o argument_n upon_o which_o i_o insist_v in_o this_o chapter_n be_v draw_v from_o a_o serious_a inspection_n into_o the_o sacred_a book_n i_o assert_v that_o if_o they_o be_v well_o consider_v it_o will_v appear_v that_o their_o composition_n be_v not_o pure_o human_a i_o shall_v not_o prove_v this_o proposition_n by_o heap_v together_o the_o noble_a passage_n that_o be_v to_o be_v find_v from_o time_n to_o time_n in_o the_o write_n of_o the_o apostle_n i_o only_o ask_v who_o these_o new_a author_n be_v that_o speak_v so_o worthy_o of_o the_o religion_n which_o they_o preach_v we_o find_v among_o they_o galilean_n that_o be_v to_o say_v homebred_a ignorant_a people_n bear_v in_o a_o country_n where_o there_o be_v nothing_o of_o politeness_n we_o find_v they_o to_o be_v fisherman_n that_o be_v to_o say_v people_n by_o their_o profession_n rude_a and_o unpolished_a by_o they_o let_v we_o judge_v of_o the_o rest_n since_o it_o be_v agree_v that_o if_o any_o one_o of_o the_o apostle_n be_v inspire_v in_o write_v the_o question_n be_v decide_v where_o be_v it_o then_o that_o these_o author_n learn_v to_o write_v well_o let_v we_o grant_v that_o their_o write_n be_v not_o so_o fine_a as_o the_o book_n which_o the_o world_n esteem_v the_o author_n of_o those_o book_n have_v the_o help_n both_o of_o study_n and_o art_n which_o be_v all_o human_a but_o where_o be_v it_o that_o the_o sacred_a author_n learn_v their_o manner_n of_o write_v we_o find_v that_o the_o question_n be_v not_o whether_o the_o write_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v more_o eloquent_a than_o those_o which_o the_o world_n admire_v suppose_v a_o equality_n as_o to_o that_o matter_n that_o be_v nothing_o to_o my_o purpose_n the_o business_n be_v to_o know_v where_o the_o apostle_n learn_v their_o manner_n of_o write_v those_o thing_n which_o they_o deliver_v upon_o the_o day_n of_o the_o pentecost_n they_o speak_v new_a language_n that_o other_o man_n speak_v but_o the_o miracle_n be_v this_o that_o the_o apostle_n speak_v language_n which_o they_o have_v never_o learn_v before_o some_o will_v say_v though_o to_o little_a purpose_n where_o be_v the_o miracle_n see_v that_o other_o speak_v as_o well_o as_o they_o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o the_o apostle_n write_v as_o other_o man_n but_o here_o be_v the_o difference_n not_o to_o be_v contest_v that_o the_o apostle_n have_v never_o learn_v to_o write_v and_o i_o think_v this_o may_v pass_v for_o a_o good_a proof_n of_o the_o inspiration_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n chap._n x._o wherein_o the_o inspiration_n of_o the_o book_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v make_v out_o from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o which_o they_o be_v the_o write_n it_o appear_v by_o inspect_v into_o these_o book_n that_o they_o belong_v to_o a_o covenant_n which_o god_n have_v manifest_v with_o much_o more_o advantage_n than_o the_o old_a testament_n the_o author_n of_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o mediator_n of_o a_o better_a covenant_n this_o covenant_n be_v better_a in_o divers_a respect_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v contest_v but_o that_o it_o be_v better_a in_o respect_n of_o light_n and_o certainty_n i_o understand_v from_o the_o write_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n that_o the_o old_a one_o present_v nothing_o but_o type_n and_o shadow_n s._n john_n oppose_v truth_n to_o the_o law_n in_o point_n of_o evidence_n the_o law_n say_v he_o 1.17_o john_n 1.17_o be_v give_v by_o moses_n but_o grace_n and_o truth_n come_v by_o jesus_n christ_n s._n paul_n insist_o upon_o the_o same_o opposition_n in_o his_o second_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n but_o if_o the_o gospel_n be_v hide_v say_v he_o 6._o 2_o cor._n 4.3_o 6._o it_o be_v hide_v to_o those_o that_o perish_v and_o he_o give_v this_o reason_n for_o it_o for_o god_n say_v he_o who_o command_v the_o light_n to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n have_v shine_v in_o our_o heart_n to_o give_v the_o light_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n these_o expression_n be_v very_o clear_a and_o make_v out_o as_o evident_o as_o it_o be_v possible_a the_o inspiration_n of_o s._n paul_n it_o be_v necessary_a to_o bear_v it_o in_o remembrance_n but_o i_o insist_v at_o present_a only_o upon_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n which_o be_v to_o be_v more_o full_a of_o light_n and_o clearness_n than_o the_o former_a this_o be_v grant_v i_o consider_v the_o degree_n of_o light_n that_o enlighten_v the_o old_a covenant_n i_o find_v that_o the_o prophet_n who_o be_v inspire_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n instruct_v the_o age_n they_o live_v in_o but_o they_o also_o transmit_v that_o inspiration_n to_o the_o succeed_a age_n by_o their_o write_n which_o be_v consult_v with_o as_o much_o religion_n as_o they_o will_v have_v consult_v their_o author_n have_v they_o be_v alive_a those_o sacred_a monument_n be_v read_v as_o they_o will_v have_v hearken_v to_o the_o prophet_n themselves_o the_o mouth_n of_o god_n speak_v still_o in_o their_o write_n the_o nation_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v of_o this_o opinion_n except_o as_o it_o be_v common_o think_v a_o handful_n of_o sadducee_n who_o the_o better_a to_o defend_v their_o error_n entrench_v themselves_o in_o the_o pentateuch_n however_o this_o do_v not_o hinder_v josephus_n from_o say_v in_o general_n 2._o answer_v to_o ap●●●_n c._n 2._o moreover_o there_o can_v be_v nothing_o more_o certain_a than_o the_o write_n authorise_a among_o we_o in_o regard_n they_o be_v not_o liable_a to_o any_o contrariety_n in_o regard_n there_o be_v nothing_o approve_v but_o what_o the_o prophet_n write_v several_a age_n since_o according_a to_o the_o purity_n of_o truth_n by_o the_o inspiration_n and_o by_o the_o impulse_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n neither_o do_v we_o trouble_v ourselves_o with_o infinite_a number_n of_o book_n that_o contradict_v one_o another_o as_o have_v no_o more_o than_o twenty_o two_o etc._n etc._n and_o a_o little_a after_o we_o have_v so_o profound_a a_o respect_n for_o these_o book_n that_o never_o any_o body_n be_v so_o hardy_a as_o to_o undertake_v either_o to_o add_v or_o diminish_v or_o alter_v the_o least_o tittle_n we_o look_v upon_o they_o as_o divine_a we_o call_v they_o so_o we_o profess_v to_o observe_v they_o inviolable_o and_o joyful_o to_o lay_v down_o our_o life_n if_o there_o be_v occasion_n in_o defence_n of_o '_o they_o nothing_o can_v more_o clear_o express_v the_o high_a opinion_n which_o the_o jewish_a church_n have_v of_o the_o sacred_a book_n that_o compose_v the_o old_a testament_n and_o josephus_n be_v more_o to_o be_v believe_v upon_o this_o subject_a than_o a_o modern_a author_n who_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o prophet_n have_v no_o other_o assistance_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n than_o a_o pious_a disposition_n which_o make_v they_o write_v like_o person_n of_o sincerity_n but_o without_o any_o prerogative_n of_o infallibility_n but_o this_o be_v not_o josephus_n opinion_n this_o be_v not_o the_o belief_n of_o the_o jewish_a church_n this_o be_v not_o the_o judgement_n of_o s._n peter_n who_o declare_v that_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n speak_v as_o they_o be_v move_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n nor_o be_v there_o any_o father_n doubt_v to_o be_v make_v
