expound_v it_o and_o fulfil_v it_o nay_o say_v they_o circumcision_n be_v express_o command_v by_o god_n unto_o abraham_n and_o afterward_o to_o moses_n and_o why_o th●●_n have_v jesus_n abolish_v it_o in_o deed_n that_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o do_v always_o deceive_v they_o namely_o that_o they_o take_v the_o sign_n for_o the_o thing_n signify_v and_o the_o shadow_n for_o the_o substance_n and_o truth_n of_o the_o promise_n but_o we_o say_v that_o circumcision_n be_v a_o sign_n or_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n and_o not_o the_o covenant_n itself_o and_o the_o best_a of_o the_o jew_n deny_v it_o not_o themselves_o 10._o and_o yet_o moses_n say_v when_o the_o lord_n shall_v have_v cast_v thou_o out_o to_o the_o uttermost_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n yet_o will_v he_o bring_v thou_o

god_n with_o all_o thy_o heart_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o soul_n and_o that_o thou_o may_v live_v and_o in_o another_o place_n he_o say_v circumcise_v the_o foreskin_n of_o your_o heart_n and_o harden_v not_o your_o neck_n any_o more_o and_o when_o the_o prophet_n rebuke_v we_o they_o call_v we_o not_o simple_o uncircumcised_a but_o uncircumcised_a of_o heart_n or_o of_o lip_n the_o which_o ought_v to_o advertise_v you_o that_o the_o sign_n be_v fleshly_a 4._o but_o the_o thing_n signify_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n the_o covenant_n be_v spiritual_a mirandula_n and_o that_o it_o will_v

i_o not_o give_v thou_o any_o and_o god_n himself_o say_v i_o blame_v thou_o not_o for_o that_o thou_o have_v give_v i_o no_o burntoffering_n also_o in_o esay_n 66._o who_o require_v these_o thing_n of_o you_o as_o for_o these_o sacrifice_n these_o new_a moon_n these_o sabbat_n and_o these_o solemn_a feast_n they_o loath_a i_o they_o burden_v i_o and_o i_o can_v well_o away_o with_o they_o moreover_o micheas_n say_v if_o thou_o give_v thousand_o of_o thy_o sheep_n and_o river_n of_o oil_n 6._o yea_o &_o thy_o elder_a son_n even_o the_o son_n of_o thy_o own_o body_n beget_v for_o thy_o

the_o snetch_n of_o a_o dog_n and_o the_o burn_a of_o incense_n be_v as_o the_o blessing_n of_o a_o idol_n all_o which_o saying_n do_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v not_o the_o

sacrifice_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v a_o break_a and_o lowly_a heart_n and_o esay_n say_v wash_v yourselves_o scour_v away_o the_o naughtiness_n of_o your_o heart_n do_v right_a to_o the_o fatherless_a

and_o such_o as_o be_v more_o solemn_a they_o betoken_v that_o universal_a sacrifice_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o mankind_n which_o god_n have_v ordain_v everlasting_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n the_o death_n of_o the_o messiah_n for_o that_o those_o sacrifice_n shall_v have_v a_o end_n namely_o the_o sign_n by_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v the_o figure_n by_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o
