mankind_n upon_o which_o account_n the_o full_a discovery_n of_o it_o be_v reserve_v to_o he_o who_o by_o conquer_a death_n be_v to_o ascertain_v the_o truth_n of_o it_o to_o we_o if_o it_o be_v inquire_v whence_o then_o good_a man_n of_o old_a have_v their_o notice_n of_o it_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o it_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o promise_v make_v to_o adam_n that_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n shall_v break_v the_o serpent_n head_n for_o the_o expression_n of_o break_v the_o serpent_n head_n must_v mean_v that_o he_o who_o be_v promise_v shall_v by_o dispossess_v the_o devil_n of_o that_o power_n he_o have_v gain_v over_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n deliver_v we_o from_o the_o calamity_n that_o by_o the_o serpent_n subtlety_n we_o be_v fall_v into_o now_o this_o calamity_n be_v mortality_n and_o that_o power_n of_o lead_v the_o captive_v soul_n of_o man_n to_o that_o invisible_a state_n where_o the_o devil_n exercise_v a_o tyrannical_a authority_n that_o he_o have_v gain_v over_o we_o and_o because_o the_o serpent_n by_o his_o subtlety_n have_v bring_v this_o mischief_n upon_o we_o god_n promise_v that_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n shall_v bruise_v his_o head_n i.e._n he_o will_v outwit_n he_o by_o the_o seed_n of_o that_o woman_n who_o he_o have_v deceive_v and_o deprive_v he_o of_o the_o fruit_n of_o his_o subtlety_n by_o restore_a immortality_n to_o man_n who_o he_o have_v bring_v under_o a_o curse_n thus_o no_o doubt_n adam_n understand_v this_o promise_n which_o assure_v he_o of_o a_o deliverance_n from_o the_o curse_n he_o be_v fall_v under_o for_o how_o can_v he_o be_v free_v from_o the_o curse_n that_o sin_n have_v bring_v upon_o he_o but_o by_o have_v the_o life_n which_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n sentence_v he_o to_o lose_v assure_v to_o he_o again_o or_o how_o can_v the_o serpent_n crafty_a design_n to_o deprive_v he_o of_o a_o immortal_a life_n be_v disappoint_v but_o by_o a_o promise_n that_o give_v he_o hope_n of_o rise_v again_o to_o life_n and_o therefore_o st._n paul_n observe_v that_o as_o in_o adam_n all_o die_n so_o in_o christ_n shall_v all_o be_v make_v alive_a imply_v that_o as_o death_n be_v the_o curse_n that_o come_v upon_o we_o by_o the_o first_o transgression_n so_o it_o be_v a_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a that_o be_v promise_v to_o adam_n because_o that_o promise_v not_o only_o teach_v we_o in_o general_a that_o god_n design_v we_o some_o great_a blessing_n by_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n but_o that_o the_o blessing_n shall_v be_v a_o remedy_n to_o the_o mischief_n that_o by_o the_o serpent_n subtlety_n be_v fall_v upon_o we_o 2._o the_o promise_v make_v to_o abraham_n of_o give_v he_o and_o his_o seed_n the_o land_n of_o canaan_n do_v imply_v it_o for_o this_o promise_n be_v not_o make_v to_o his_o posterity_n alone_o but_o to_o he_o also_o all_o the_o land_n which_o thou_o see_v to_o thou_o will_v i_o give_v it_o and_o to_o thy_o seed_n after_o thou_o gen._n 13.15_o now_o though_o this_o promise_n be_v not_o make_v good_a to_o he_o nor_o his_o son_n who_o be_v the_o heir_n of_o the_o promise_n but_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v they_o sojourn_v in_o the_o land_n of_o promise_n as_o in_o a_o strange_a country_n heb._n 11.9_o yet_o god_n make_v himself_o know_v to_o he_o and_o to_o isaac_n and_o jacob_n to_o be_v their_o god_n by_o which_o he_o will_v have_v they_o to_o believe_v he_o to_o be_v that_o faithful_a god_n that_o keep_v promise_n and_o according_o it_o be_v by_o faith_n that_o they_o sojourn_v there_o though_o as_o stranger_n believe_v that_o though_o they_o do_v not_o live_v to_o see_v the_o promise_n make_v good_a yet_o there_o will_v come_v a_o time_n when_o god_n will_v be_v mindful_a of_o they_o and_o put_v they_o into_o a_o full_a possession_n of_o it_o these_o all_o say_v the_o apostle_n die_v in_o faith_n not_o have_v receive_v the_o promise_n but_o have_v see_v they_o afar_o off_o and_o be_v persuade_v of_o they_o and_o embrace_v they_o and_o confess_v that_o they_o be_v stranger_n and_o pilgrim_n on_o the_o earth_n v._o 13._o and_o therefore_o when_o they_o be_v dead_a god_n still_o style_v himself_o the_o god_n of_o abraham_n the_o god_n of_o isaac_n and_o the_o god_n of_o jacob_n to_o let_v their_o posterity_n know_v that_o he_o be_v mindful_a of_o they_o and_o of_o the_o promise_n he_o have_v make_v they_o from_o which_o text_n our_o bless_a saviour_n convince_v the_o sadducee_n that_o they_o shall_v rise_v again_o i.e._n though_o they_o do_v not_o receive_v the_o promise_n in_o this_o life_n yet_o because_o god_n have_v assure_v they_o he_o be_v their_o god_n they_o shall_v assure_o live_v again_o and_o enjoy_v the_o benefit_n of_o it_o the_o design_n of_o the_o argument_n be_v to_o teach_v that_o sect_n that_o deny_v a_o resurrection_n that_o in_o this_o text_n god_n have_v give_v the_o jew_n a_o sufficient_a ground_n for_o the_o belief_n of_o a_o resurrection_n because_o god_n be_v not_o the_o god_n of_o the_o dead_a but_o of_o the_o live_n it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o style_v he_o the_o god_n of_o the_o live_n though_o there_o be_v no_o resurrection_n only_o because_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n do_v live_v in_o a_o separate_a state_n for_o though_o the_o soul_n of_o abraham_n be_v alive_a yet_o abraham_n be_v dead_a and_o if_o abraham_n be_v not_o to_o live_v again_o he_o can_v not_o with_o a_o respect_n to_o abraham_n be_v style_v the_o god_n of_o the_o live_n the_o meaning_n of_o our_o saviour_n argument_n be_v this_o that_o though_o abraham_n isaac_n and_o jacob_n be_v dead_a by_o virtue_n of_o that_o curse_n that_o be_v come_v upon_o all_o man_n yet_o they_o must_v rise_v again_o from_o under_o this_o curse_n because_o though_o they_o be_v dead_a they_o be_v not_o consign_v over_o to_o the_o power_n of_o that_o evil_a spirit_n who_o have_v the_o power_n of_o death_n for_o god_n still_o style_v himself_o their_o god_n which_o imply_v that_o their_o soul_n be_v in_o a_o place_n of_o safety_n under_o the_o protection_n of_o god_n where_o they_o rest_v in_o hope_n of_o see_v the_o accomplishment_n of_o the_o promise_v make_v to_o they_o for_o the_o least_o that_o we_o be_v to_o conclude_v from_o hence_o be_v that_o god_n have_v reserve_v some_o special_a favour_n for_o they_o but_o what_o friendship_n can_v he_o be_v suppose_v to_o bear_v they_o if_o he_o be_v resolve_v they_o shall_v bear_v the_o curse_n for_o ever_o that_o take_v away_o their_o life_n he_o can_v not_o sure_o style_v himself_o their_o god_n if_o he_o have_v forsake_v they_o for_o ever_o for_o to_o be_v a_o god_n to_o any_o one_o do_v at_o least_o signify_v that_o he_o design_v some_o great_a good_a to_o such_o a_o person_n but_o what_o great_a good_a can_v he_o design_n for_o those_o who_o he_o have_v forget_v and_o leave_v to_o bear_v those_o mark_n of_o his_o displeasure_n with_o which_o they_o go_v out_o of_o this_o world_n if_o then_o god_n have_v not_o total_o forsake_v they_o as_o his_o be_v their_o god_n do_v imply_v that_o he_o have_v not_o though_o they_o be_v dead_a because_o of_o the_o doom_n that_o be_v pass_v upon_o adam_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o by_o death_n deliver_v as_o captive_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o he_o that_o have_v the_o power_n of_o death_n but_o shall_v be_v deliver_v out_o of_o that_o state_n of_o the_o dead_a where_o they_o live_v under_o the_o protection_n of_o god_n because_o he_o be_v their_o god_n or_o we_o may_v take_v the_o design_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o order_n to_o the_o assert_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o resurrection_n to_o have_v be_v only_o to_o overthrow_v that_o belief_n of_o the_o sadducee_n concern_v the_o annihilation_n of_o the_o soul_n upon_o which_o they_o ground_v their_o disbelief_n of_o a_o resurrection_n and_o indeed_o to_o they_o who_o believe_v there_o be_v no_o resurrection_n because_o they_o believe_v the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v extinguish_v by_o death_n it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o the_o prove_v there_o be_v a_o resurrection_n to_o prove_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n do_v live_v in_o a_o separate_a state_n after_o death_n because_o this_o be_v to_o destroy_v the_o foundation_n on_o which_o they_o ground_v their_o belief_n and_o it_o be_v sure_a if_o our_o soul_n do_v not_o remain_v alive_a after_o death_n there_o will_v be_v no_o part_n of_o we_o that_o can_v be_v sensible_a of_o the_o mischief_n that_o death_n be_v to_o we_o nor_o of_o the_o blessing_n a_o resurrection_n will_v be_v to_o we_o but_o since_o our_o soul_n do_v continue_v alive_a the_o hope_n of_o a_o resurrection_n do_v speak_v so_o much_o favour_n towards_o they_o who_o do_v not_o live_v like_o themselves_o while_o they_o be_v out_o of_o the_o
