shall_v preserve_v thou_o wisdom_n be_v the_o beginning_n get_v wisdom_n therefore_o and_o above_o all_o thy_o possession_n get_v understanding_n he_o be_v very_o frequent_a with_o the_o like_a exhortation_n in_o many_o place_n also_o of_o the_o same_o book_n read_v they_o i_o pray_v at_o your_o leisure_n and_o mark_v they_o well_o paul_n in_o like_a manner_n write_v unto_o the_o ephesian_n do_v stir_v they_o up_o to_o the_o same_o duty_n say_v wherefore_o be_v you_o not_o unwise_a but_o understand_v what_o the_o will_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v eph._n 5.17_o david_n also_o enjoin_v the_o same_o duty_n upon_o his_o son_n solomon_n towards_o the_o end_n of_o his_o day_n say_v unto_o he_o as_o follow_v my_o son_n know_v thou_o the_o god_n of_o thy_o father_n and_o serve_v he_o with_o a_o upright_o heart_n and_o willing_a mind_n as_o it_o be_v in_o 1._o cron._n 28.9_o final_o the_o lord_n himself_o do_v oftentimes_o make_v his_o moan_n and_o complaint_n for_o the_o want_n of_o this_o wisdom_n and_o knowledge_n in_o his_o people_n which_o be_v here_o require_v of_o we_o all_o teach_v we_o thereby_o how_o necessary_a it_o be_v for_o every_o one_o and_o how_o well_o please_v to_o himself_o but_o at_o this_o time_n two_o place_n alone_o to_o show_v the_o same_o shall_v content_v us._n the_o one_o be_v in_o esay_n 1.3_o when_o he_o say_v the_o ox_n know_v his_o owner_n and_o the_o ass_n his_o master_n crib_n but_o israel_n have_v not_o know_v my_o people_n have_v not_o understand_v the_o other_o be_v in_o jeremy_n 4.22_o where_o you_o have_v these_o word_n for_o my_o people_n be_v foolish_a they_o have_v not_o know_v i_o they_o be_v foolish_a child_n and_o have_v no_o understanding_n they_o be_v wise_a to_o do_v evil_a but_o to_o do_v well_o they_o have_v no_o knowledge_n by_o all_o which_o place_n we_o may_v clear_o see_v what_o do_v belong_v to_o we_o even_o a_o save_a knowledge_n of_o god_n will_n and_o a_o holy_a understanding_n of_o his_o way_n we_o must_v not_o be_v like_a to_o the_o horse_n or_o mule_n that_o have_v no_o understanding_n as_o david_n say_v in_o psa_n 32.9_o but_o we_o must_v be_v change_v by_o the_o renew_n of_o our_o mind_n that_o we_o may_v know_v what_o be_v the_o good_a perfect_a and_o acceptable_a will_n of_o god_n as_o paul_n do_v teach_v we_o in_o rom._n 12.2_o and_o the_o reason_n hereof_o be_v many_o reason_n first_o because_o every_o man_n by_o his_o own_o knowledge_n be_v a_o very_a beast_n before_o the_o lord_n as_o jeremy_n do_v witness_n of_o we_o in_o jeremy_n 10.14_o and_o as_o david_n do_v confess_v of_o himself_o in_o psalm_n 73.22_o say_v so_o foolish_a be_v i_o and_o ignorant_a i_o be_v a_o beast_n before_o thou_o second_o because_o we_o shall_v never_o obey_v the_o lord_n aright_o until_o we_o know_v he_o and_o understand_v his_o will_n nor_o yield_v any_o faithful_a service_n unto_o he_o as_o it_o do_v become_v us._n for_o the_o groundwork_n of_o all_o religion_n &_o the_o foundation_n of_o all_o true_a piety_n be_v the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o way_n as_o on_o the_o contrary_a side_n the_o cause_n and_o fountain_n of_o all_o disobedience_n against_o god_n be_v the_o ignorance_n of_o his_o will_n and_o the_o unlearnednesse_n of_o the_o same_o as_o we_o have_v hear_v in_o this_o psalm_n already_o and_o as_o we_o may_v see_v by_o hosea_n his_o complaint_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o four_o chapter_n of_o his_o prophecy_n where_o he_o do_v make_v his_o moan_n that_o man_n do_v lie_v and_o steal_v and_o commit_v adultery_n and_o that_o blood_n do_v touch_v blood_n and_o assign_v this_o reason_n of_o it_o even_o because_o there_o be_v no_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o the_o land_n and_o sure_o where_o man_n know_v not_o god_n what_o can_v be_v look_v for_o else_o but_o all_o impiety_n against_o god_n and_o all_o unrighteous_a deal_n against_o man_n last_o because_o all_o such_o as_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o lord_n will_v do_v not_o only_o err_v while_o they_o be_v here_o commit_v grievous_a sin_n against_o he_o but_o shall_v be_v damn_v also_o hereafter_o for_o ever_o my_o people_n say_v the_o lord_n in_o hosea_n 4.6_o be_v destroy_v for_o lack_n of_o knowledge_n and_o paul_n do_v show_v in_o 2._o thess_n 1.8_o that_o when_o christ_n shall_v come_v to_o judgement_n and_o show_v himself_o from_o heaven_n with_o his_o mighty_a angel_n in_o flame_a fire_n he_o shall_v render_v vengeance_n unto_o they_o that_o do_v not_o know_v god_n which_o shall_v be_v punish_v with_o everlasting_a perdition_n from_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o from_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o power_n so_o that_o if_o we_o ponder_v of_o all_o these_o reason_n well_o we_o shall_v easy_o grant_v that_o there_o be_v cause_n sufficient_a why_o every_o man_n shall_v labour_v and_o strive_v to_o plant_v some_o heavenly_a knowledge_n within_o his_o soul_n and_o to_o become_v wise_a and_o learned_a in_o the_o statute_n of_o the_o almighty_a in_o regard_v whereof_o we_o see_v first_o in_o what_o great_a fault_n the_o world_n be_v in_o for_o there_o be_v ignorance_n in_o every_o place_n alas_o alas_o most_o man_n know_v not_o aright_o either_o that_o god_n who_o have_v make_v they_o or_o themselves_o who_o be_v make_v by_o he_o and_o as_o for_o the_o ground_n of_o true_a religion_n and_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o lord_n worship_n they_o be_v as_o a_o seal_a and_o clasp_v book_n unto_o they_o we_o dwell_v in_o a_o nation_n and_o country_n wherein_o the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v be_v free_o read_v &_o preach_v many_o year_n together_o yet_o it_o be_v pitiful_a to_o hear_v &_o understand_v what_o ignorance_n be_v still_o among_o man_n and_o how_o unwise_a &_o unlearned_a they_o be_v in_o the_o statute_n of_o the_o lord_n god_n amend_v us._n but_o here_o some_o may_v say_v that_o there_o be_v never_o more_o knowledge_n in_o this_o land_n than_o now_o be_v at_o this_o present_a to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o our_o knowledge_n be_v nothing_o to_o our_o long_a and_o continue_a teach_v for_o in_o regard_n thereof_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v teacher_n ourselves_o who_o yet_o be_v teach_v of_o other_o and_o have_v need_v also_o to_o be_v instruct_v in_o the_o very_a first_o principle_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o be_v become_v many_o of_o we_o at_o the_o least_o such_o as_o have_v need_n of_o milk_n and_o not_o of_o strong_a meat_n as_o the_o author_n to_o the_o hebrew_n do_v speak_v in_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o his_o five_o chapter_n second_o that_o our_o knowledge_n for_o the_o most_o part_n be_v not_o a_o save_n or_o sanctify_a knowledge_n but_o talkative_a and_o discourse_v it_o hang_v upon_o our_o tongue_n and_o swim_v about_o in_o the_o circumference_n of_o our_o brain_n but_o it_o sink_v not_o down_o into_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o heart_n as_o it_o ought_v to_o do_v to_o bring_v forth_o a_o reform_a life_n for_o we_o have_v many_o talker_n but_o few_o true_a walker_n and_o sundry_a there_o be_v who_o can_v discourse_v at_o large_a in_o matter_n of_o religion_n but_o few_o there_o be_v who_o feel_v the_o power_n and_o force_v thereof_o be_v deaden_v by_o the_o mean_n thereof_o unto_o their_o sin_n and_o quicken_v up_o unto_o all_o fruitful_a work_n of_o righteousness_n whereby_o god_n may_v be_v honour_v and_o man_n edify_v second_o by_o this_o we_o may_v see_v that_o that_o doctrine_n which_o be_v most_o currant_n at_o rome_n &_o those_o place_n where_o popery_n do_v bear_v sway_n to_o wit_n that_o ignorance_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o devotion_n be_v most_o false_a and_o erroneous_a and_o to_o be_v abandon_v by_o we_o that_o be_v true_a and_o holy_a christian_n as_o christ_n do_v say_v to_o the_o sadducee_n you_o err_v not_o know_v the_o scripture_n nor_o the_o power_n of_o god_n in_o mat._n 22.29_o make_v there_o ignorance_n the_o cause_n of_o error_n which_o be_v clean_o contrary_a to_o their_o doctrine_n so_o he_o say_v to_o the_o jew_n search_v the_o scripture_n for_o in_o they_o you_o think_v to_o have_v eternal_a life_n and_o they_o be_v they_o which_o testify_v of_o i_o in_o john_n 5.39_o impose_v there_o this_o duty_n upon_o all_o that_o do_v intend_v to_o be_v save_v at_o the_o last_o to_o be_v conversant_a in_o the_o scripture_n which_o be_v dissonant_n altogether_o to_o their_o practice_n and_o teach_n if_o i_o will_v stand_v upon_o such_o a_o common_a place_n as_o this_o be_v i_o can_v allege_v both_o place_n and_o reason_n enough_o to_o overthrow_v they_o in_o this_o respect_n who_o be_v herein_o most_o like_a unto_o those_o curse_a and_o hypocritical_a scribe_n and_o pharisy_n who_o do_v shut_v up_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n before_o man_n neither_o go_v in_o themselves_o nor_o suffer_v
