his_o obstinacy_n in_o this_o evil_a do_v not_o appear_v so_o great_a as_o when_o he_o shall_v make_v sale_n of_o they_o and_o turn_v they_o into_o gain_n for_o it_o may_v be_v while_o they_o be_v

to_o declare_v what_o do_v befall_v they_o declare_v also_o as_o concern_v the_o jew_n that_o the_o name_n of_o god_o be_v evil_o speak_v of_o for_o they_o that_o calamity_n be_v in_o their_o way_n and_o that_o they_o have_v not_o know_v the_o way_n of_o peace_n take_v his_o ground_n from_o the_o punishment_n that_o light_n upon_o they_o to_o prove_v that_o they_o do_v hold_v the_o truth_n in_o unrighteousness_n that_o their_o obedience_n do_v not_o answer_v unto_o their_o knowledge_n which_o they_o have_v of_o god_o that_o they_o can_v claim_v nothing_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o deed_n which_o the_o lord_n from_o heaven_n have_v reprove_v by_o punishment_n bring_v in_o upon_o they_o and_o therefore_o he_o do_v strengthen_v his_o former_a affirmation_n that_o the_o just_a man_n shall_v live_v by_o faith_n which_o be_v his_o purpose_n to_o prove_v unto_o they_o and_o unto_o the_o which_o end_n he_o direct_v all_o his_o speech_n in_o those_o four_o chapter_n in_o like_a manner_n 14._o the_o apostle_n prove_v to_o the_o roman_n that_o all_o man_n have_v sin_n even_o child_n that_o do_v never_o commit_v any_o actual_a offence_n because_o death_n which_o be_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n do_v take_v hold_n upon_o all_o this_o one_o punishment_n therefore_o if_o there_o be_v no_o other_o may_v suffice_v to_o prove_v that_o no_o man_n ever_o do_v keep_v the_o law_n because_o death_n which_o be_v a_o punishment_n for_o transgress_v the_o law_n do_v seize_v upon_o all_o man_n of_o what_o estate_n degree_n or_o year_n so_o ever_o it_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o that_o place_n that_o because_o all_o have_v sin_v therefore_o death_n come_v upon_o all_o provide_v by_o the_o deal_n of_o god_o against_o man_n in_o punish_v of_o he_o that_o man_n have_v deal_v against_o god_o in_o transgress_v of_o his_o law_n and_o commandment_n nay_o provide_v which_o be_v yet_o more_o that_o because_o god_o punish_v all_o man_n therefore_o every_o man_n have_v offend_v against_o he_o in_o transgress_v his_o law_n and_o commandment_n so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o can_v say_v he_o have_v or_o do_v fulfil_v the_o law_n for_o if_o it_o may_v in_o truth_n be_v utter_v of_o any_o man_n that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n it_o may_v in_o like_a manner_n as_o true_o be_v affirm_v and_o hope_v for_o that_o the_o same_o man_n shall_v never_o die_v or_o change_v this_o corruptible_a estate_n wherefore_o then_o serve_v the_o law_n may_v it_o stand_v with_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_o to_o command_v any_o thing_n that_o we_o can_v not_o do_v or_o to_o make_v promise_n of_o life_n for_o the_o keep_n and_o observe_v of_o that_o which_o he_o know_v assure_o we_o can_v not_o perform_v first_o that_o the_o lord_n may_v righteous_o require_v that_o kind_n of_o obedience_n at_o our_o hand_n though_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a for_o we_o to_o perform_v it_o may_v be_v prove_v hereby_o because_o we_o shall_v have_v have_v power_n to_o have_v perform_v it_o if_o we_o have_v continue_v in_o that_o estate_n that_o he_o have_v leave_v we_o in_o our_o sin_n therefore_o and_o weakness_n by_o the_o mean_a of_o sin_n which_o be_v our_o own_o offence_n can_v not_o now_o make_v that_o unrighteous_a in_o god_o which_o before_o be_v righteous_a our_o unrighteousness_n and_o sin_n can_v not_o make_v we_o less_o

before_o it_o have_v be_v we_o confess_v it_o be_v just_a before_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n to_o require_v all_o these_o duty_n at_o our_o hand_n because_o he_o have_v give_v we_o power_n and_o
