he_o have_v now_o the_o more_o he_o shall_v have_v after_o because_o he_o live_v by_o the_o promise_n he_o live_v by_o hope_n and_o hope_n make_v he_o patient_a and_o the_o promise_n support_v they_o both_o it_o be_v the_o grace_n of_o hope_n that_o set_v a_o man_n in_o heaven_n when_o he_o be_v on_o earth_n and_o the_o promise_n set_v hope_n in_o heaven_n hope_n can_v go_v to_o heaven_n but_o by_o the_o promise_n a_o christian_n can_v not_o go_v to_o heaven_n on_o earth_n and_o take_v a_o spiritual_a flight_n but_o for_o hope_n the_o promise_n bring_v down_o heaven_n to_o the_o heart_n it_o invert_v that_o speech_n of_o st._n paul_n he_o say_v while_o we_o be_v present_a in_o the_o body_n we_o be_v absent_a from_o the_o lord_n but_o hope_n turn_v it_o and_o make_v it_o while_o we_o

we_o will_v look_v for_o comfort_n let_v we_o look_v to_o the_o treasure_v up_o of_o the_o promise_n the_o promise_n support_v there_o be_v no_o condition_n that_o befall_v a_o christian_a in_o this_o

there_o be_v promise_n for_o all_o and_o the_o promise_n will_v still_o keep_v the_o head_n above_o water_n what_o ever_o the_o affliction_n be_v it_o will_v still_o keep_v life_n and_o soul_n together_o if_o there_o be_v no_o b●ame_n of_o comfort_n appear_v yet_o the_o promise_n will_v support_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o distress_n if_o a_o man_n grasp_v but_o a_o promise_n he_o be_v well_o enough_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v in_o perplexity_n and_o doubt_v it_o will_v settle_v it_o if_o it_o be_v in_o affliction_n the_o promise_n will_v comfort_v it_o if_o it_o be_v in_o any_o distress_n the_o promise_n will_v afford_v consolation_n therefore_o make_v much_o of_o the_o promise_n if_o salvation_n be_v promise_v to_o believer_n it_o be_v hope_n that_o present_o grasp_v and_o

god_n you_o have_v rob_v i_o say_v god_n they_o reply_v wherein_o have_v we_o rob_v thou_o you_o have_v speak_v stout_o say_v god_n they_o reply_v wherein_o they_o have_v word_n whereby_o to_o dishonour_v god_n and_o none_o to_o please_v or_o to_o pacify_v he_o and_o for_o the_o defect_n of_o speech_n in_o the_o grace_n of_o prayer_n the_o prophet_n isaiah_n tell_v we_o chap._n 64._o that_o he_o look_v about_o and_o find_v none_o that_o do_v apply_v themselves_o to_o call_v upon_o god_n or_o to_o lay_v hold_n of_o he_o it_o be_v not_o usual_a for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v guilty_a of_o both_o extreme_n in_o the_o same_o kind_n of_o sin_n because_o that_o extreme_n be_v contrary_a one_o to_o another_o yet_o they_o have_v a_o double_a guilt_n upon_o themselves_o they_o be_v full_a of_o word_n in_o worldly_a matter_n but_o altogether_o silent_a and_o dumb_a towards_o salvation_n to_o speak_v against_o god_n so_o they_o abound_v with_o word_n and_o yet_o to_o speak_v to_o he_o to_o pacify_v he_o so_o they_o want_v they_o therefore_o it_o be_v this_o infirmity_n the_o prophet_n hosea_n here_o labour_v to_o cure_v in_o this_o people_n he_o observe_v their_o defect_n he_o see_v how_o they_o turn_v aside_o but_o they_o will_v not_o lay_v hold_n on_o the_o mean_n of_o pacification_n therefore_o now_o he_o direct_v they_o to_o see_v the_o right_a way_n whence_o they_o shall_v take_v their_o beginning_n to_o work_v atonement_n and_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n he_o speak_v ephata_n he_o put_v his_o finger_n as_o it_o be_v to_o their_o mouth_n to_o open_v they_o to_o unbowell_v their_o heart_n with_o the_o acknowledgement_n of_o their_o sin_n with_o the_o in_o large_n of_o their_o petition_n to_o god_n and_o thus_o he_o counsel_v they_o take_v with_o you_o word_n and_o turn_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o say_v thus_o and_o thus_o you_o may_v remember_v how_o i_o divide_v the_o word_n they_o contain_v two_o thing_n the_o form_n of_o a_o excitement_n and_o a_o form_n of_o direction_n the_o form_n of_o excitement_n in_o the_o first_o part_n that_o be_v to_o two_o duty_n one_o to_o the_o duty_n of_o action_n turn_v to_o the_o lord_n another_o to_o the_o duty_n of_o elocution_n take_v to_o you_o word_n and_o speak_v to_o he_o of_o the_o former_a i_o speak_v in_o the_o forenoon_n read_v the_o word_n so_o turn_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o in_o turn_v take_v to_o you_o word_n and_o there_o i_o show_v you_o what_o be_v the_o occasion_n of_o this_o exhortation_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n he_o press_v the_o exhortation_n twice_o upon_o they_o of_o turn_v to_o the_o lord_n what_o be_v the_o duty_n he_o aim_v at_o to_o stir_v they_o up_o to_o the_o work_n of_o prayer_n that_o be_v one_o kind_a of_o turn_v to_o stir_v they_o up_o to_o the_o work_n of_o repentance_n that_o be_v another_o kind_n of_o turn_v to_o the_o lord_n a_o universal_a turn_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o subject_n a_o total_a turn_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o act_n a_o final_a turn_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o time_n never_o to_o look_v on_o sin_n again_o what_o the_o proposition_n be_v that_o arise_v hence_o that_o there_o be_v no_o diversion_n of_o judgement_n without_o turn_v to_o god_n by_o prayer_n and_o turn_v to_o god_n by_o repentance_n there_o be_v no_o true_a repentance_n without_o cast_v away_o sin_n this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o that_o i_o deliver_v in_o the_o forenoon_n now_o i_o go_v on_o that_o be_v to_o the_o second_o excitement_n to_o which_o here_o the_o prophet_n will_v provoke_v and_o stir_v they_o and_o that_o be_v to_o the_o duty_n of_o elocution_n in_o the_o former_a he_o show_v they_o the_o way_n what_o course_n they_o must_v take_v to_o god_n turn_v to_o he_o in_o this_o he_o show_v they_o the_o way_n what_o course_n they_o must_v take_v for_o repentance_n take_v word_n to_o themselves_o take_v to_o you_o word_n there_o be_v no_o difficulty_n in_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o phrase_n there_o can_v be_v nothing_o more_o familer_n to_o we_o then_o that_o phrase_n which_o entreat_v of_o speech_n and_o take_v of_o word_n which_o be_v only_o proper_a to_o man_n yet_o i_o find_v that_o interpreter_n make_v a_o little_a difference_n in_o the_o exposition_n of_o they_o for_o some_o will_v have_v this_o to_o be_v the_o meaning_n that_o the_o prophet_n here_o excite_v they_o to_o a_o duty_n of_o obedience_n take_v to_o you_o word_n here_o i_o now_o when_o i_o speak_v to_o you_o in_o these_o word_n that_o be_v the_o exposition_n of_o mercer_n and_o zanche_n listen_v to_o my_o word_n when_o i_o exhort_v you_o to_o repent_v and_o turn_v to_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o phrase_n but_o other_o better_a that_o the_o prophet_n excite_v they_o here_o to_o a_o duty_n of_o expression_n of_o their_o repentance_n that_o that_o will_v kindle_v in_o they_o the_o flame_n of_o all_o good_a desire_n by_o get_v a_o wholesome_a form_n of_o speech_n to_o come_v before_o god_n so_o the_o meaning_n be_v take_v to_o you_o word_n humble_v yourselves_o before_o god_n fly_v to_o he_o by_o prayer_n seek_v reconciliation_n at_o his_o hand_n but_o take_v heed_n that_o you_o come_v not_o unprepared_a unprovided_a fit_v yourselves_o well_o before_o and_o study_v how_o to_o speak_v to_o he_o take_v word_n and_o then_o go_v to_o he_o and_o turn_v this_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o more_o proper_a exposition_n more_o genuine_a for_o if_o we_o insist_v in_o the_o other_o the_o phrase_n of_o speech_n will_v not_o bear_v it_o it_o offer_v violence_n to_o the_o text_n it_o be_v not_o only_o diverse_a but_o repugnant_a for_o if_o that_o be_v the_o meaning_n take_v to_o you_o word_n that_o be_v hear_v my_o word_n the_o prophet_n will_v not_o have_v exhort_v they_o to_o have_v get_v lip_n but_o ear_n not_o word_n but_o attention_n he_o do_v not_o here_o exhort_v they_o so_o much_o to_o listen_v to_o he_o as_o to_o open_v their_o own_o mouth_n to_o god_n therefore_o of_o necessity_n we_o must_v take_v it_o as_o the_o word_n lie_v for_o the_o procurement_n of_o the_o language_n of_o prayer_n and_o repentance_n which_o will_v be_v most_o fit_a for_o the_o expression_n of_o their_o repentance_n to_o god_n so_o take_v this_o thus_o there_o be_v these_o two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v in_o this_o part_n one_o be_v the_o get_n of_o word_n another_o be_v for_o the_o utter_n and_o

this_o time_n that_o be_v of_o the_o word_n they_o shall_v take_v to_o themselves_o take_v to_o you_o word_n it_o have_v respect_n to_o the_o former_a duty_n i_o speak_v of_o in_o both_o the_o acception_n turn_v to_o the_o lord_n turn_v by_o prayer_n turn_v by_o repentance_n both_o way_n it_o look_v when_o you_o pray_v to_o god_n then_o get_v word_n when_o you_o repent_v of_o your_o sin_n then_o get_v word_n it_o be_v the_o observation_n both_o of_o cyrill_n and_o chrysostome_n he_o stir_v they_o up_o that_o they_o shall_v bring_v with_o they_o non_fw-la aurum_fw-la non_fw-la

and_o word_n of_o repentance_n in_o acknowledge_v their_o sin_n this_o be_v the_o scope_n the_o prophet_n aim_v at_o so_o i_o will_v consider_v in_o it_o two_o thing_n the_o motive_n that_o induce_v the_o prophet_n to_o make_v this_o exhortation_n he_o call_v upon_o they_o for_o word_n get_v you_o word_n and_o the_o scope_n he_o propound_v to_o himself_o in_o it_o what_o be_v the_o duty_n he_o will_v excite_v they_o to_o first_o the_o motive_n that_o induce_v the_o prophet_n to_o make_v this_o exhortation_n here_o for_o we_o have_v not_o the_o parallel_n to_o it_o in_o scripture_n take_v to_o you_o word_n it_o shall_v seem_v they_o be_v bring_v to_o a_o very_a low_a ebb_n for_o piety_n that_o they_o know_v not_o the_o first_o element_n and_o principle_n that_o they_o can_v not_o go_v
