great_a advantage_n which_o his_o presence_n and_o abode_n bring_v a_o people_n the_o first_o advantage_n be_v god_n presence_n and_o abode_n with_o a_o people_n it_o be_v the_o holiness_n of_o a_o

he_o be_v the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n and_o by_o that_o near_a relation_n they_o be_v make_v a_o holy_a people_n to_o the_o lord_n their_o god_n deut._n 7.6_o we_o see_v that_o this_o presence_n of_o god_n make_v a_o people_n holy_a even_o by_o that_o legal_a and_o cerimoniall_a holiness_n among_o the_o jew_n first_o the_o land_n of_o israel_n it_o be_v call_v a_o holy_a land_n because_o

see_v god_n promise_n to_o dwell_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o zion_n zech._n 2.10_o and_o then_o he_o tell_v they_o in_o the_o 12_o verse_n that_o he_o will_v inherit_v judah_n his_o portion_n in_o in_o
