to_o their_o child_n it_o be_v not_o a_o easy_a thing_n to_o be_v a_o father_n and_o mother_n in_o performance_n of_o fatherly_a and_o motherly_a duty_n provoke_v not_o d._n man_n be_v in_o general_a here_o to_o learn_v that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o abstain_v from_o sin_n but_o they_o must_v abstain_v from_o all_o provocation_n to_o sin_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o abstain_v from_o whoredom_n but_o man_n must_v abstain_v from_o wanton_a attire_n from_o suspect_a place_n from_o filthy_a speech_n from_o chamber_v &_o wantoness_n not_o enough_o to_o abstain_v from_o murder_n but_o man_n must_v abstain_v from_o bitter_a and_o provoke_a word_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o abstain_v from_o idolatry_n but_o man_n must_v abstain_v from_o all_o the_o monument_n and_o occasion_n of_o

they_o must_v take_v heed_n of_o common_a swear_n so_o minister_n must_v not_o only_o call_v for_o peace_n and_o unity_n but_o they_o must_v take_v heed_n of_o provocation_n to_o discord_n when_o all_o be_v at_o peace_n thus_o of_o the_o general_a the_o word_n of_o this_o verse_n be_v a_o dehortation_n and_o therein_o be_v first_o the_o duty_n of_o parent_n second_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o parent_n all_o parent_n be_v tie_v to_o perform_v their_o duty_n to_o their_o child_n parent_n by_o father_n he_o mean_v both_o parent_n none_o be_v too_o good_a to_o do_v it_o use_v for_o reproof_n of_o such_o woman_n as_o think_v themselves_o too_o good_a to_o nurse_v their_o own_o child_n and_o of_o such_o father_n as_o turn_v the_o care_n of_o their_o child_n whole_o to_o other_o provoke_v to_o wrath_n here_o i_o note_v the_o manner_n of_o set_v down_o their_o duty_n and_o the_o matter_n the_o duty_n of_o parent_n be_v negative_o set_v down_o to_o teach_v that_o parent_n must_v not_o

otherwise_o never_o so_o honest_a or_o religious_a yet_o the_o careless_a discharge_n of_o their_o duty_n to_o their_o child_n may_v much_o provoke_v god_n and_o will_v certain_o be_v find_v on_o their_o score_n if_o they_o repent_v not_o quest_n but_o why_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o parent_n in_o this_o place_n so_o spare_o set_v down_o but_o in_o one_o branch_n of_o it_o and_o that_o negative_o answ_n it_o be_v not_o to_o allow_v parent_n to_o be_v less_o careful_a but_o it_o may_v be_v the_o apostle_n spare_v they_o here_o because_o in_o respect_n of_o other_o relation_n they_o be_v charge_v before_o and_o after_o as_o husband_n and_o master_n again_o it_o may_v be_v the_o apostle_n will_v have_v child_n to_o know_v they_o have_v not_o that_o liberty_n to_o inquire_v into_o their_o parent_n fault_n or_o to_o reckon_v it_o as_o a_o part_n of_o their_o skill_n to_o find_v they_o out_o parent_n shall_v account_v to_o god_n but_o not_o to_o their_o child_n thus_o of_o the_o manner_n of_o set_v their_o duty_n down_o the_o matter_n follow_v provoke_v not_o parent_n fault_n two_o way_n either_o by_o too_o much_o severity_n or_o by_o too_o much_o indulgence_n the_o former_a be_v here_o restrain_v again_o the_o provocation_n be_v twofold_a either_o to_o sin_n or_o to_o passion_n it_o be_v a_o most_o curse_a thing_n for_o parent_n to_o provoke_v their_o child_n to_o sin_n by_o counsel_v they_o to_o evil_a way_n or_o encourage_v they_o to_o lewd_a course_n this_o the_o apostle_n hold_v too_o horrible_a vile_a for_o any_o profess_v religion_n or_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o mention_n provocation_n to_o anger_n concern_v this_o provocation_n to_o anger_n i_o consider_v three_o thing_n first_o how_o parent_n provoke_v their_o child_n second_o what_o they_o must_v do_v that_o they_o be_v not_o provoke_v
