our_o saviour_n explication_n of_o it_o you_o have_v hear_v that_o it_o have_v be_v say_v thou_o shall_v love_v thy_o neighbour_n and_o hate_v thy_o enemy_n but_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o love_v your_o

they_o by_o themselves_o and_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o set_v before_o you_o 1._o the_o nature_n and_o extent_n of_o the_o duty_n enjoin_v 2._o our_o obligation_n to_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o i_o begin_v with_o the_o nature_n and_o extent_n of_o this_o duty_n love_v your_o enemy_n etc._n etc._n the_o word_n love_n be_v of_o a_o very_a large_a signification_n and_o in_o the_o language_n of_o holy_a scripture_n be_v general_o use_v to_o express_v the_o whole_a duty_n of_o man_n thus_o our_o saviour_n use_v it_o in_o the_o summary_n of_o religion_n which_o he_o teach_v the_o lawyer_n tell_v he_o that_o the_o whole_a law_n be_v comprise_v in_o these_o two_o thing_n the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o of_o our_o neighbour_n thou_o shall_v love_v the_o lord_n thy_o 37._o matth._n 22._o 37._o god_n with_o all_o thy_o heart_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o soul_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o mind_n this_o be_v the_o first_o and_o great_a commandment_n and_o the_o second_o be_v like_a unto_o it_o thou_o shall_v love_v thy_o neighbour_n as_o thyself_o on_o these_o two_o commandment_n hang_v all_o the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n by_o which_o use_n of_o the_o word_n it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o love_n of_o our_o neighbour_n include_v all_o the_o duty_n and_o office_n which_o one_o man_n can_v owe_v to_o another_o and_o so_o it_o be_v here_o to_o be_v understand_v when_o apply_v to_o enemy_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o connexion_n of_o these_o word_n with_o the_o former_a verse_n you_o have_v hear_v that_o it_o have_v be_v say_v thou_o shall_v love_v thy_o neighbour_n and_o hate_v thy_o enemy_n but_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o love_v your_o enemy_n where_o it_o be_v plain_a our_o saviour_n alter_v not_o the_o comprehensive_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n only_o enlarge_v the_o object_n of_o it_o viz._n that_o whereas_o they_o have_v be_v before_o teach_v to_o confine_v their_o love_n that_o be_v the_o several_a office_n of_o justice_n and_o charity_n only_o to_o their_o neighbour_n that_o be_v as_o they_o understand_v it_o only_o to_o their_o friend_n and_o countryman_n they_o shall_v now_o extend_v the_o same_o office_n to_o enemy_n likewise_o as_o well_o as_o to_o they_o not_o only_o to_o stranger_n and_o alien_n but_o to_o those_o also_o that_o profess_a hatred_n to_o they_o and_o do_v they_o injury_n this_o he_o prescribe_v first_o general_o by_o the_o name_n of_o love_n i_o say_v unto_o you_o love_v your_o enemy_n and_o then_o leave_v they_o shall_v make_v too_o narrow_a a_o interpretation_n of_o the_o word_n he_o further_o explain_v it_o by_o the_o most_o oblige_a instance_n can_v be_v give_v of_o it_o and_o that_o in_o opposition_n to_o the_o contrary_a practice_n of_o their_o enemy_n bless_v they_o that_o curse_v you_o do_v good_a to_o they_o that_o hate_v you_o and_o pray_v for_o they_o that_o despiteful_o use_v you_o and_o persecute_v you_o but_o not_o to_o insist_v upon_o this_o large_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n i_o shall_v now_o only_o take_v notice_n of_o those_o office_n which_o be_v peculiar_o due_a to_o our_o enemy_n as_o such_o over_z and_o above_o what_o can_v be_v due_a to_o the_o rest_n of_o our_o neighbour_n and_o those_o be_v refer_v usual_o to_o these_o three_o general_a head_n 1._o that_o we_o do_v not_o return_v those_o evil_n upon_o our_o enemy_n which_o he_o have_v do_v we_o 2._o that_o we_o forgive_v he_o from_o our_o heart_n 3._o that_o we_o recompense_v good_a to_o he_o when_o he_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o our_o assistance_n 1._o if_o we_o be_v command_v to_o love_v our_o enemy_n it_o be_v easy_a to_o understand_v that_o we_o be_v hereby_o forbid_v all_o practice_n towards_o he_o that_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o love_n and_o charity_n and_o therefore_o that_o we_o must_v forbear_v all_o act_n of_o revenge_n and_o hostility_n towards_o he_o all_o recompense_v evil_a for_o evil_n this_o branch_n of_o our_o duty_n our_o saviour_n particular_o teach_v at_o the_o 38_o 39_o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n you_o have_v hear_v that_o it_o have_v be_v say_v a_o eye_n for_o a_o eye_n and_o a_o tooth_n for_o a_o tooth_n but_o i_o say_v
