themselves_o exod._n 22.21_o thou_o shall_v do_v no_o injury_n to_o stranger_n and_o also_o the_o same_o duty_n be_v in_o the_o 9_o the_o verse_n of_o the_o follow_a chapter_n press_v again_o and_o the_o command_n be_v back_v with_o a_o forcible_a move_a reason_n viz._n why_o we_o shall_v be_v kind_a to_o they_o and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n because_o they_o be_v stranger_n in_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n and_o know_v the_o heart_n of_o stranger_n they_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n of_o the_o condition_n they_o be_v once_o in_o and_o of_o the_o usage_n they_o wish_v from_o the_o egyptian_n and_o this_o reason_v suppose_n they_o will_v now_o deal_v with_o other_o as_o they_o once_o wish_v they_o may_v be_v deal_v withal_o themselves_o and_o the_o same_o duty_n be_v again_o enjoin_v they_o leu._n 19.34_o and_o if_o the_o stranger_n sojourn_v with_o you_o etc._n etc._n why_o now_o i_o pray_v be_v this_o duty_n so_o often_o inculcate_v why_o be_v we_o so_o often_o reminded_a of_o it_o but_o because_o it_o be_v a_o duty_n very_o necessary_a for_o all_o man_n to_o put_v in_o practice_n but_o from_o the_o jew_n let_v we_o now_o go_v to_o the_o christian_n and_o see_v how_o well_o they_o practise_v this_o duty_n and_o that_o you_o may_v not_o think_v this_o a_o legal_a precept_n and_o abolish_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n let_v we_o see_v what_o proof_n be_v to_o be_v meet_v with_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o in_o rom_n 13.12_o you_o will_v find_v it_o enjoin_v the_o christian_n and_o they_o be_v command_v to_o use_v hospitality_n and_o in_o heb._n 13._o they_o be_v caution_v not_o to_o forget_v it_o which_o suppose_v that_o christian_n be_v otherwise_o both_o by_o nature_n and_o former_a revelation_n teach_v to_o do_v thus_o and_o in_o mat._n 25._o you_o will_v find_v the_o practice_n of_o it_o be_v not_o only_o good_a and_o fit_a but_o necessary_a and_o indispensable_a which_o may_v appear_v from_o the_o sad_a doom_n christ_n pass_v on_o they_o that_o neglect_v it_o i_o be_v a_o stranger_n and_o you_o take_v i_o not_o in_o he_o do_v not_o lay_v this_o to_o their_o charge_n that_o they_o be_v whoremonger_n adulterer_n murderer_n guilty_a of_o those_o open_a crime_n which_o not_o only_o the_o law_n of_o god_n do_v threaten_v but_o the_o law_n of_o man_n punish_v with_o death_n but_o this_o be_v the_o chief_a sin_n that_o be_v lay_v to_o their_o charge_n i_o be_v a_o stranger_n and_o you_o take_v i_o not_o in_o that_o be_v you_o be_v inhospitable_a 3._o and_o as_o it_o be_v command_v we_o in_o the_o scripture_n so_o also_o be_v it_o recommend_v to_o our_o practice_n from_o the_o example_n of_o several_a eminent_a person_n that_o have_v perform_v it_o so_o that_o we_o have_v both_o precept_n and_o precedent_n to_o oblige_v we_o to_o it_o rule_v now_o be_v best_a learn_v when_o illustrate_v with_o example_n the_o rich_a storehouse_n of_o the_o scripture_n afford_v we_o variety_n of_o instance_n both_o in_o the_o old_a and_o

we_o for_o they_o be_v not_o only_o honour_v while_o they_o live_v but_o be_v renown_v among_o we_o to_o all_o posterity_n and_o in_o gen._n 18.1_o 2_o 3_o 4._o we_o may_v find_v abraham_n

this_o be_v a_o carriage_n that_o become_v the_o hearty_a goodness_n of_o those_o old_a time_n and_o it_o be_v a_o work_n worthy_a of_o and_o suitable_a to_o the_o great_a faith_n of_o that_o excellent_a man._n and_o also_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o chap._n 19_o we_o have_v lot_n hospitality_n record_v he_o see_v two_o stranger_n he_o go_v to_o meet_v they_o bow_v himself_o with_o his_o

gratify_v their_o host_n why_o the_o same_o chapter_n tell_v you_o how_o they_o save_v his_o life_n and_o rescue_v he_o and_o his_o family_n from_o those_o fiery_a shower_n fatal_a to_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o inhabitant_n and_o as_o for_o his_o brother_n abraham_n they_o so_o great_o requite_v his_o hospitality_n that_o they_o give_v he_o the_o news_n of_o a_o son_n in_o his_o old_a age_n and_o also_o such_o a_o son_n in_o who_o all_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n shall_v be_v bless_v we_o also_o find_v it_o upon_o record_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n in_o act_n 28._o that_o publius_n entertain_v paul_n three_o day_n courteous_o and_o in_o requital_n he_o heal_v his_o father-in-law_n of_o a_o fever_n and_o onesiphorus_n have_v once_o or_o twice_o refresh_v paul_n at_o his_o table_n he_o remember_v he_o in_o his_o prayer_n and_o public_o acknowledge_v his_o hospitality_n in_o his_o epistle_n but_o now_o to_o instance_n in_o a_o example_n above_o all_o example_n who_o example_n if_o we_o follow_v not_o we_o can_v never_o go_v to_o heaven_n you_o may_v read_v deut._n 10.18_o god_n himself_o be_v say_v to_o love_v the_o stranger_n and_o to_o give_v he_o food_n and_o raiment_n but_o we_o have_v a_o far_o great_a proof_n of_o god_n love_n to_o stranger_n than_o these_o for_o we_o gentile_n that_o be_v foreigner_n have_v he_o visit_v with_o his_o salvation_n to_o we_o that_o have_v a_o long_a time_n sit_v in_o darkness_n and_o in_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n have_v he_o give_v a_o light_n he_o have_v give_v to_o we_o his_o son_n and_o treat_v we_o with_o all_o the_o

if_o it_o have_v be_v the_o practice_n of_o god_n himself_o let_v we_o then_o be_v hospitable_a that_o we_o may_v be_v like_a unto_o god_n and_o indeed_o as_o you_o ought_v to_o be_v hospitable_a to_o stranger_n so_o ought_v you_o to_o be_v charitable_a to_o the_o poor_a we_o have_v a_o express_a mandate_n for_o it_o in_o luke_n 14.13_o 14._o when_o thou_o make_v a_o feast_n call_v the_o poor_a the_o maim_a and_o the_o lame_a and_o thou_o shall_v be_v bless_v etc._n etc._n and_o it_o may_v well_o deserve_v our_o observation_n to_o consider_v the_o great_a care_n god_n take_v of_o the_o

beside_o every_o year_n tything_n they_o have_v the_o three_o year_n tithe_n which_o by_o god_n law_n be_v their_o due_n and_o not_o only_o the_o three_o year_n but_o the_o seven_o year_n the_o land_n be_v to_o lie_v still_o and_o they_o be_v to_o share_v in_o common_a the_o fruit_n of_o it_o neither_o do_v the_o primitive_a christian_n fall_v short_a of_o the_o jew_n in_o their_o charity_n witness_v that_o ancient_a and_o primitive_a institution_n of_o the_o offertory_n in_o the_o sacrament_n which_o be_v so_o considerable_a a_o part_n of_o it_o that_o it_o give_v denomination_n to_o the_o whole_a and_o this_o i_o have_v read_v to_o be_v one_o reason_n why_o it_o be_v call_v the_o communion-service_n because_o every_o sunday_n the_o primitive_a christian_n do_v communicate_v to_o the_o necessity_n of_o other_o nay_o we_o may_v learn_v this_o duty_n from_o the_o very_a heathen_n themselves_o for_o they_o have_v a_o temple_n in_o athens_n and_o it_o be_v dedicate_v to_o

reproach_n can_v it_o be_v to_o a_o christian_n than_o to_o be_v churlish_a and_o unmerciful_a we_o read_v in_o the_o mosaic_a law_n that_o the_o shellfish_n be_v account_v unclean_a this_o i_o take_v to_o be_v one_o reason_n because_o the_o meat_n be_v enclose_v in_o the_o shell_n and_o it_o be_v hard_a to_o come_v by_o they_o indeed_o be_v to_o be_v reckon_v among_o the_o unclean_a
