if_o my_o text_n do_v not_o express_o affirm_v yet_o will_v it_o by_o consequence_n infer_v that_o god_n make_v no_o account_n of_o this_o ceremonial_a worship_n but_o this_o be_v a_o paradox_n for_o

set_v down_o the_o circumstance_n of_o all_o sacrifice_n and_o the_o accessory_n thereunto_o and_o that_o by_o way_n of_o command_n the_o patriarch_n before_o moses_n do_v sacrifice_v and_o can_v we_o

society_n which_o reason_n must_v be_v wary_o understand_v for_o it_o can_v be_v mean_v that_o god_n take_v occasion_n from_o the_o heathen_a to_o institute_v sacrifice_n among_o the_o jew_n for_o the_o heathen_a have_v it_o by_o tradition_n from_o the_o patriarch_n and_o god_n himself_o be_v the_o first_o author_n of_o sacrifice_n but_o this_o be_v true_a that_o the_o heathen_a have_v

with_o many_o superstition_n of_o their_o own_o three_o the_o end_n they_o know_v not_o wherefore_o they_o be_v ordain_v and_o fourthly_a the_o owner_n they_o do_v not_o know_v to_o who_o they_o do_v belong_v from_o these_o depravation_n god_n do_v cleanse_v the_o sacrifice_n in_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n and_o so_o do_v distinguish_v his_o people_n from_o other_o nation_n not_o by_o sacrifice_v but_o by_o sacrifice_v as_o they_o ought_v the_o last_o end_n of_o institute_a sacrifice_n be_v the_o provision_n for_o the_o priest_n and_o the_o sacred_a feast_n whereat_o the_o poor_a be_v relieve_v these_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o god_n institute_v sacrifice_n wherein_o you_o see_v that_o they_o all_o import_v a_o relief_n vouchsafe_v man_n but_o yet_o we_o have_v not_o find_v out_o the_o true_a ground_n why_o god_n do_v not_o desire_v nor_o delight_n in_o sacrifice_n and_o burn_a offering_n for_o put_v the_o case_n he_o do_v institute_v they_o out_o of_o compassion_n towards_o
