translation_n observe_v and_o censure_v reason_n against_o former_a deduction_n the_o entire_a obedience_n of_o the_o israelite_n to_o the_o dictate_v of_o moses_n rather_o from_o the_o conference_n of_o his_o divine_a inspiration_n as_o a_o prophet_n than_o his_o sovereign_a power_n the_o authority_n of_o scripture_n depend_v not_o upon_o the_o declaration_n of_o the_o sovereign_a the_o worshipper_n of_o baal_n not_o excuse_v from_o the_o command_n of_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n the_o reason_n of_o mr._n hobbs_n his_o former_a assertion_n disprove_v the_o command_n of_o the_o sovereign_a just_o oppose_v when_o contrary_a to_o the_o christian_a faith_n mr._n hobbs_n his_o atheistical_a conclusion_n censure_v but_o he_o have_v another_o piece_n of_o scripture_n which_o you_o may_v read_v gen_n 18.18_o 19_o again_o where_o god_n say_v to_o abraham_n in_o thou_o shall_v all_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v bless_v for_o i_o know_v thou_o will_v command_v thy_o child_n and_o thy_o house_n after_o thou_o to_o keep_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o observe_v righteousness_n and_o judgement_n it_o be_v manifest_a the_o obedience_n of_o his_o family_n who_o have_v no_o revelation_n depend_v on_o their_o former_a obligation_n to_o obey_v their_o sovereign_n thus_o far_o mr._n hobbs_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a that_o this_o obedience_n of_o abraham_n family_n to_o himself_o depend_v upon_o their_o filial_a obedience_n to_o he_o as_o their_o father_n and_o his_o command_v they_o depend_v upon_o his_o sovereign_a power_n over_o they_o as_o their_o father_n but_o what_o can_v it_o be_v collect_v hence_o that_o if_o abraham_n have_v command_v dishonest_a thing_n i._n e._n such_o action_n as_o be_v against_o any_o will_n of_o god_n reveal_v any_o other_o way_n to_o they_o that_o they_o shall_v have_v obey_v he_o certain_o no_o nay_o the_o contrary_a be_v here_o intimate_v for_o therefore_o god_n promise_v to_o bless_v he_o and_o his_o posterity_n because_o he_o do_v know_v that_o abraham_n will_v command_v they_o virtuous_a thing_n to_o keep_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o mark_v here_o mr._n hobbs_n still_o varye_v from_o the_o english_a lection_n and_o that_o to_o the_o worse_o for_o it_o be_v not_o what_o he_o write_v to_o keep_v but_o he_o will_v command_v they_o and_o they_o shall_v keep_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n so_o that_o the_o sense_n be_v because_o god_n foresee_v his_o fatherly_a care_n and_o their_o filial_a duty_n in_o these_o righteous_a action_n he_o will_v bless_v they_o he_o prosecute_v this_o conclusion_n with_o another_o scripture_n thus_o at_o mount_n sinai_n moses_n only_o go_v up_o to_o god_n the_o people_n be_v forbid_v to_o approach_v on_o pain_n of_o death_n yet_o be_v they_o bind_v to_o obey_v all_o that_o moses_n declare_v unto_o they_o for_o god_n law_n upon_o what_o ground_n but_o on_o this_o submission_n of_o their_o own_o exod._n 20._o speak_v thou_o to_o we_o and_o we_o will_v hear_v thou_o but_o let_v not_o god_n speak_v to_o we_o lest_o we_o die_v by_o which_o two_o place_n say_v he_o it_o sufficient_o appear_v that_o in_o a_o commonwealth_n a_o subject_a that_o have_v no_o certain_a and_o assure_a revelation_n particular_o to_o himself_o concern_v the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v to_o obey_v for_o such_o the_o command_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n that_o be_v by_o his_o logic_n the_o sovereign_a of_o the_o commonwealth_n how_o this_o conclusion_n can_v be_v draw_v out_o of_o these_o two_o place_n of_o scripture_n i_o can_v imagine_v why_o it_o shall_v not_o i_o shall_v give_v these_o reason_n first_o that_o although_o these_o two_o particular_a case_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v as_o he_o conceit_n yet_o they_o be_v but_o particular_a case_n which_o concern_v those_o only_a affair_n which_o be_v under_o their_o proper_a management_n and_o there_o be_v no_o one_o word_n which_o point_v at_o they_o to_o make_v they_o precedent_n for_o other_o or_o to_o give_v a_o universal_a rule_n for_o all_o other_o second_o whereas_o he_o say_v that_o in_o a_o commonwealth_n a_o subject_a shall_v do_v thus_o as_o he_o set_v down_o in_o one_o of_o his_o instance_n to_o wit_n that_o of_o abraham_n there_o be_v no_o commonwealth_n settle_v but_o only_o a_o noble_a family_n many_o thing_n may_v be_v proper_a to_o a_o family_n which_o be_v not_o for_o a_o commonwealth_n nay_o indeed_o the_o government_n of_o the_o israelite_n under_o moses_n be_v as_o yet_o not_o a_o pefect_n establish_v commonwealth_n but_o only_o in_o fieri_fw-la the_o commonwealth_n be_v in_o mould_v the_o law_n for_o the_o government_n be_v in_o make_v then_o consider_v in_o moses_n his_o case_n for_o i_o have_v write_v enough_o concern_v the_o other_o the_o people_n say_v they_o will_v hear_v moses_n and_o good_a reason_n for_o it_o because_o they_o discern_v that_o he_o have_v conversation_n with_o god_n that_o god_n terror_n be_v so_o great_a that_o no_o man_n dare_v injure_v he_o by_o doubt_v his_o law_n who_o have_v such_o near_a converse_n with_o god_n as_o he_o have_v when_o call_v up_o to_o the_o top_n of_o the_o mount_n and_o therefore_o may_v be_v trust_v on_o his_o relation_n and_o therefore_o it_o seem_v their_o promise_n of_o harken_v to_o whatsoever_o moses_n shall_v deliver_v for_o god_n law_n be_v to_o he_o as_o a_o prophet_n rather_o than_o as_o a_o king_n which_o indeed_o be_v in_o that_o regard_n more_o to_o be_v consider_v and_o certain_o those_o dictate_v of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n for_o our_o practice_n which_o be_v deliver_v by_o king_n david_n or_o solomon_n have_v not_o that_o great_a obligation_n upon_o we_o as_o they_o be_v king_n but_o prophet_n nor_o be_v the_o book_n which_o be_v scripture_n and_o command_v to_o be_v so_o receive_v among_o we_o therefore_o of_o divine_a authourity_n because_o king_n declare_v they_o to_o be_v such_o but_o contrariwise_o king_n declare_v they_o to_o be_v such_o because_o they_o be_v such_o and_o good_a reader_n consider_v further_o that_o this_o reason_n of_o mr._n hobbs_n may_v have_v excuse_v all_o the_o worshipper_n of_o baal_n all_o the_o idolatry_n and_o abomination_n commit_v in_o the_o reign_n of_o jeroboam_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o those_o wicked_a king_n over_o israel_n for_o if_o the_o people_n be_v to_o receive_v that_o and_o that_o only_a for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o their_o supremes_n authorize_v than_o they_o authorise_v those_o and_o only_o those_o command_n which_o be_v direct_v to_o those_o impiety_n be_v so_o to_o be_v accept_v and_o obey_v unless_o they_o have_v particular_a revelation_n which_o in_o general_a the_o common_a people_n never_o have_v and_o then_o how_o can_v god_n just_o punish_v they_o for_o violate_v those_o law_n which_o he_o have_v give_v they_o as_o he_o do_v often_o when_o their_o king_n exact_v otherways_o but_o he_o give_v reason_n for_o what_o he_o have_v deliver_v for_o say_v he_o if_o man_n be_v at_o liberty_n to_o take_v for_o god_n commandment_n their_o own_o dream_n and_o fancy_n or_o the_o dream_n and_o fancy_n of_o private_a man_n scarce_o two_o man_n will_v agree_v upon_o what_o be_v god_n commandment_n and_o yet_o in_o respect_n of_o they_o every_o man_n will_v despise_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o common_a wealth_n alas_o poor_a man_n what_o a_o dream_n and_o fancy_n have_v he_o vain_o utter_v this_o be_v like_a to_o what_o he_o affirm_v before_o that_o we_o have_v no_o assurance_n of_o revelation_n unless_o we_o have_v particular_a revelation_n ourselves_o and_o what_o i_o oppose_v to_o that_o will_v serve_v for_o this_o be_v all_o those_o council_n all_o those_o father_n all_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n nothing_o but_o dream_n all_o the_o blood_n of_o holy_a martyr_n nothing_o but_o fancy_n yea_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n whereby_o he_o have_v subdue_v all_o the_o king_n of_o this_o christian_a world_n nothing_o but_o dream_n and_o fancy_n which_o yet_o be_v those_o medium_n by_o which_o man_n oppose_v king_n and_o aught_o to_o do_v it_o when_o they_o command_v contrary_a to_o our_o christian_n faith_n certain_o mr._n hobos_fw-mi say_v right_a when_o he_o affirm_v that_o private_a man_n must_v not_o oppose_v their_o dream_n or_o fancy_n to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n wherein_o they_o live_v but_o under_o that_o notion_n he_o do_v amiss_o when_o he_o term_v our_o assent_n to_o the_o reveal_v will_n of_o god_n clear_o and_o intelligent_o apprehend_v a_o dream_n or_o fancy_n but_o because_o he_o term_v it_o the_o law_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n which_o have_v some_o sense_n according_a to_o his_o impossible_a principle_n viz._n that_o the_o supreme_a represent_v the_o whole_a i_o will_v
