come_v out_o of_o juda_n and_o prophesy_v against_a the_o altar_n that_o jeroboam_fw-la have_v set_v up_o who_o be_v charge_v by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n not_o to_o eat_v bread_n nor_o drink_n

this_o i_o take_v partly_o to_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o title_n son_n of_o man_n attribute_v unto_o the_o prophet_n ezechiel_n &_o as_o a_o pulback_n to_o the_o end_n he_o shall_v not_o be_v

i_o be_o weary_a of_o repent_v upon_o it_o by_o these_o word_n we_o learn_v that_o whether_o they_o be_v take_v literal_o or_o figurative_o that_o both_o the_o earth_n itself_o and_o the_o people_n
