king_n of_o babylon_n when_o they_o be_v carry_v away_o captive_n to_o babylon_n and_o yet_o their_o submission_n our_o author_n confess_v give_v a_o legal_a right_n two_o can_v the_o submission_n of_o the_o king_n give_v a_o legal_a right_n to_o the_o crown_n without_o the_o submission_n of_o the_o people_n if_o not_o it_o seem_v the_o people_n may_v have_v some_o right_n if_o not_o to_o government_n yet_o to_o give_v away_o the_o government_n of_o themselves_o if_o the_o consent_n and_o submission_n of_o a_o people_n can_v make_v a_o king_n when_o they_o have_v none_o why_o can_v it_o not_o do_v so_o when_o they_o be_v under_o a_o new_a force_n and_o power_n which_o be_v the_o same_o state_n as_o if_o they_o have_v no_o king_n for_o power_n have_v a_o immediate_a effect_n and_o will_v admit_v of_o no_o delay_n 3_o can_v every_o private_a man_n or_o any_o city_n or_o garrison_n when_o they_o be_v overpower_v and_o can_v be_v relieve_v by_o their_o prince_n submit_v for_o themselves_o to_o the_o conqueror_n without_o the_o submission_n of_o their_o king_n and_o do_v they_o not_o by_o such_o a_o submission_n according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o nation_n become_v the_o subject_n of_o the_o conqueror_n till_o they_o be_v retake_v and_o why_o can_v a_o whole_a nation_n in_o the_o same_o circumstance_n do_v the_o same_o thing_n though_o the_o king_n have_v escape_v and_o do_v not_o and_o will_v not_o submit_v to_o the_o conqueror_n 4_o for_o have_v a_o nation_n no_o right_n when_o the_o king_n be_v go_v to_o preserve_v themselves_o by_o make_v the_o best_a term_n they_o can_v with_o the_o new_a power_n must_v they_o ask_v leave_n of_o their_o prince_n whether_o they_o shall_v continue_v a_o nation_n when_o he_o be_v go_v whether_o they_o shall_v submit_v to_o a_o new_a prince_n when_o he_o can_v protect_v they_o no_o long_o all_o mankind_n have_v this_o natural_a right_n to_o submit_v for_o their_o own_o preservation_n and_o need_v ask_v no_o prince_n leave_v to_o do_v it_o i_o urge_v all_o this_o only_a to_o show_v that_o there_o be_v such_o case_n wherein_o subject_n may_v submit_v without_o the_o submission_n of_o their_o prince_n and_o when_o they_o do_v so_o it_o give_v that_o prince_n a_o right_a to_o govern_v they_o for_o they_o have_v make_v themselves_o his_o subject_n and_o if_o the_o case_n be_v such_o wherein_o they_o may_v lawful_o do_v it_o they_o confer_v a_o lawful_a right_n though_o they_o can_v extinguish_v their_o former_a king_n claim_n by_o it_o who_o have_v not_o submit_v 5_o for_o what_o will_v our_o author_n say_v to_o the_o submission_n of_o jaddus_n and_o the_o jew_n to_o alexander_n while_o darius_n be_v live_v who_o subject_n they_o be_v and_o who_o have_v not_o submit_v and_o yet_o they_o assert_v that_o by_o this_o mean_v alexander_n gain_v a_o lawful_a authority_n over_o they_o and_o that_o they_o owe_v all_o the_o duty_n and_o obedience_n to_o alexander_n which_o they_o former_o have_v do_v to_o the_o king_n of_o babylon_n and_o persia_n can._n 31._o pag._n 67._o and_o then_o according_a to_o this_o convocation_n the_o submission_n of_o subject_n without_o the_o submission_n of_o the_o king_n give_v a_o lawful_a authority_n our_o author_n be_v much_o trouble_v about_o this_o story_n of_o jaddus_n and_o alexander_n etc._n and_o spend_v several_a page_n to_o confute_v josephus_n who_o be_v the_o only_a relator_n of_o it_o i_o will_v not_o engage_v in_o this_o quarrel_n the_o vindication_n of_o josephus_n as_o to_o this_o story_n be_v undertake_v by_o a_o more_o learned_a pen_n as_o i_o suppose_v our_o author_n will_v know_v before_o he_o will_v see_v this_o but_o this_o i_o must_v say_v that_o if_o they_o part_v with_o this_o story_n they_o lose_v so_o glorious_a a_o testimony_n as_o they_o use_v to_o account_v it_o to_o the_o indispensable_a obligation_n of_o a_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n while_o the_o king_n to_o who_o we_o have_v swear_v allegiance_n live_v whether_o he_o be_v in_o possession_n or_o out_o of_o it_o that_o they_o will_v not_o find_v the_o like_a again_o in_o any_o record_n of_o time_n but_o it_o seem_v they_o be_v sensible_a jaddus_n confute_v their_o sense_n of_o it_o himself_o by_o submit_v to_o alexander_n notwithstanding_o his_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n while_o darius_n be_v live_v and_o now_o they_o be_v willing_a to_o part_v with_o it_o well_o 11._o but_o as_o he_o himself_o observe_v the_o dispute_n be_v not_o whether_o the_o story_n be_v true_a or_o false_a but_o whether_o the_o convocation_n believe_v it_o for_o if_o they_o believe_v the_o story_n true_a by_o their_o judgement_n on_o the_o case_n we_o may_v know_v what_o their_o sense_n be_v about_o this_o matter_n this_o he_o grant_v but_o say_v likewise_o that_o their_o sense_n be_v not_o to_o be_v extend_v beyond_o their_o word_n and_o this_o i_o grant_v nor_o be_v they_o to_o be_v make_v party_n to_o any_o more_o of_o the_o story_n than_o they_o have_v insert_v in_o their_o book_n but_o this_o i_o deny_v for_o if_o they_o believe_v any_o of_o the_o story_n upon_o iosephus_n authority_n by_o the_o same_o reason_n they_o must_v believe_v all_o and_o if_o they_o pass_v their_o judgement_n on_o a_o matter_n of_o fact_n such_o wise_a man_n ought_v to_o be_v presume_v to_o judge_v upon_o the_o whole_a matter_n of_o fact_n especial_o when_o different_a circumstance_n will_v alter_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o action_n according_a to_o our_o author_n opinion_n it_o make_v a_o great_a difference_n in_o iaddus_n submission_n to_o alexander_n whether_o darius_n be_v live_v or_o dead_a and_o can_v we_o think_v such_o wise_a man_n as_o make_v up_o that_o convocation_n shall_v not_o consider_v this_o though_o as_o he_o say_v they_o take_v no_o notice_n of_o it_o and_o if_o they_o do_v consider_v it_o and_o take_v their_o story_n from_o josephus_n and_o it_o seem_v by_o he_o they_o can_v have_v it_o from_o no_o other_o author_n it_o be_v plain_a they_o must_v believe_v darius_n to_o be_v live_v when_o jaddus_n who_o be_v his_o subject_n and_o have_v swear_v allegiance_n to_o he_o notwithstanding_o this_o submit_a to_o alexander_n which_o show_v what_o their_o opinion_n be_v that_o subject_n who_o have_v swear_v allegiance_n to_o their_o prince_n may_v yet_o when_o under_o force_n as_o jaddus_n be_v become_v the_o subject_n of_o another_o prevail_a prince_n what_o he_o mention_n concern_v iaddus_n answer_n to_o alexander_n i_o answer_v before_o in_o the_o case_n of_o allegiance_n p._n 8._o and_o he_o have_v not_o think_v fit_a to_o make_v any_o reply_n to_o it_o but_o he_o add_v 12._o grant_v the_o story_n true_a it_o be_v not_o to_o the_o purpose_n it_o be_v urge_v for_o that_o be_v it_o will_v not_o justify_v a_o subject_a under_o a_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n to_o submit_v to_o another_o prince_n while_o his_o own_o king_n be_v live_v and_o his_o reason_n for_o it_o be_v this_o josephus_n tell_v we_o that_o god_n appear_v to_o jaddus_n in_o a_o dream_n and_o warn_v he_o to_o submit_v to_o alexander_n and_o to_o meet_v he_o in_o that_o solemn_a manner_n he_o do_v so_o that_o this_o be_v a_o singular_a and_o exempt_a case_n and_o fall_v within_o the_o circumstance_n of_o jehu_n and_o ahud_o it_o be_v always_o the_o custom_n in_o the_o jewish_a church_n in_o case_n of_o great_a extremity_n and_o emergency_n to_o have_v recourse_n to_o god_n for_o some_o express_a revelation_n what_o they_o shall_v do_v and_o here_o josephus_n tell_v we_o be_v all_o the_o preparation_n to_o it_o they_o fast_v and_o pray_v and_o the_o next_o night_n god_n appear_v to_o jaddus_n however_o as_o we_o have_v the_o story_n from_o josephus_n so_o we_o must_v take_v all_o from_o he_o and_o he_o tell_v express_o that_o god_n appear_v to_o he_o and_o order_v he_o so_o to_o do_v and_o god_n appear_v and_o command_n stand_v upon_o the_o same_o authority_n with_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o story_n and_o then_o it_o be_v whole_o beside_o the_o purpose_n it_o be_v allege_v for_o for_o there_o be_v a_o wide_a difference_n between_o act_v by_o common_a and_o stand_a rule_n and_o by_o express_a revelation_n and_o if_o these_o gentleman_n will_v show_v we_o any_o express_a revelation_n for_o what_o they_o do_v as_o jaddus_n have_v than_o they_o say_v something_o but_o till_o they_o can_v show_v that_o this_o example_n of_o jaddus_n if_o it_o be_v true_a will_v do_v they_o no_o service_n we_o be_v now_o dispute_v about_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o convocation_n and_o therefore_o must_v remember_v that_o the_o convocation_n do_v not_o assign_v this_o reason_n why_o jaddus_n after_o his_o oath_n to_o darius_n submit_v to_o alexander_n for_o they_o make_v no_o doubt_n at_o all_o about_o the_o lawfulness_n of_o his_o submission_n and_o therefore_o never_o inquire_v into_o the_o
