fervour_n of_o affection_n towards_o they_o a_o bridegroom_n rejoice_v exceed_o over_o his_o bride_n though_o happy_o afterward_o he_o be_v not_o so_o much_o affect_v for_o it_o be_v our_o nature_n the_o imperfection_n of_o they_o that_o new_a thing_n affect_v we_o more_o than_o old_a now_o with_o god_n there_o be_v nothing_o new_a nor_o old_a but_o his_o heart_n be_v the_o same_o and_o so_o be_v jesus_n christ_n his_o heart_n he_o rejoice_v over_o his_o people_n continual_o as_o a_o bridegroom_n over_o his_o bride_n not_o as_o a_o man_n over_o his_o wife_n but_o as_o a_o bridegroom_n over_o his_o bride_n now_o sure_o if_o a_o man_n do_v afterward_o cool_v in_o his_o affection_n towards_o his_o wife_n and_o can_v be_v content_a to_o be_v separate_v from_o she_o yet_o upon_o the_o

be_v true_a it_o be_v first_o intend_v there_o of_o man_n put_v away_o their_o wife_n but_o sure_o if_o he_o hate_v it_o in_o we_o he_o will_v not_o admit_v it_o in_o himself_o though_o it_o be_v true_a he_o be_v above_o all_o law_n give_v to_o we_o yet_o he_o have_v set_v forth_o this_o mystery_n of_o his_o union_n with_o his_o church_n by_o the_o marriage-union_n i_o show_v you_o a_o mystery_n say_v the_o apostle_n but_o i_o speak_v concern_v christ_n and_o his_o church_n and_o as_o it_o hold_v in_o love_n and_o cherish_v and_o nourish_v and_o not_o hate_v so_o why_o not_o in_o this_o that_o he_o hate_v put_v away_o the_o lord_n can_v admit_v of_o such_o a_o thought_n of_o put_v away_o such_o a_o soul_n if_o satan_n will_v move_v for_o it_o the_o lord_n hate_v it_o and_o

though_o he_o be_v thus_o unchangeable_a yet_o i_o may_v change_v and_o break_v the_o marriage-covenant_n with_o he_o or_o i_o have_v do_v it_o i_o fear_v and_o therefore_o in_o such_o a_o case_n he_o may_v put_v i_o away_o and_o yet_o not_o change_v for_o the_o change_n be_v in_o i_o for_o this_o brethren_n remember_v it_o be_v not_o the_o backslide_n of_o his_o people_n that_o can_v undo_v the_o

that_o church_n a_o man_n will_v not_o receive_v his_o wife_n again_o likely_a in_o such_o a_o case_n yet_o return_v again_o to_o i_o say_v the_o lord_n and_o i_o will_v receive_v you_o if_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o foresee_v those_o backslide_n in_o his_o people_n it_o have_v be_v somewhat_o if_o christ_n have_v not_o full_o satisfy_v the_o father_n for_o they_o as_o well_o as_o for_o

indeed_o and_o it_o be_v very_o observable_a brethren_n i_o speak_v the_o more_o because_o i_o know_v that_o poor_a creature_n in_o this_o condition_n they_o be_v full_a of_o jealousy_n and_o fear_n and_o all_o that_o can_v be_v say_v be_v little_a enough_o to_o quiet_a and_o comfort_n first_o observe_v that_o the_o lord_n speak_v over_o and_o over_o and_o over_o again_o israel_n have_v backsliden_a in_o that_o prophecy_n of_o hosea_n as_o appear_v ch_n 14._o 4._o i_o will_v heal_v their_o backslide_n well_o now_o they_o can_v hardly_o believe_v that_o god_n will_v receive_v they_o again_o they_o be_v so_o confound_v they_o have_v nothing_o to_o say_v therefore_o he_o put_v word_n into_o their_o mouth_n in_o that_o chapter_n teach_v they_o what_o to_o say_v but_o observe_v in_o

that_o after_o such_o apostasy_n and_o backslide_n he_o will_v receive_v it_o i_o will_v do_v it_o say_v the_o lord_n again_o o_o i_o can_v believe_v it_o say_v the_o soul_n i_o will_v do_v it_o say_v he_o again_o yea_o 2._o observe_v there_o that_o he_o will_v do_v it_o and_o espouse_v they_o betrothe_v they_o again_o as_o one_o very_a well_o hote_v he_o say_v not_o he_o will_v receive_v they_o as_o a_o man_n may_v receive_v his_o adulterous_a wife_n again_o but_o i_o will_v betrothe_v they_o say_v the_o lord_n as_o if_o they_o be_v virgin_n pure_a and_o unspotted_a the_o lord_n will_v

if_o they_o never_o pollute_v themselves_o so_o that_o if_o the_o 21_o lord_n give_v thou_o but_o a_o repent_a heart_n thy_o backslide_n will_v be_v as_o if_o thou_o have_v never_o start_v from_o he_o and_o from_o final_a depart_n he_o will_v keep_v they_o i_o say_v he_o will_v keep_v they_o here_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o this_o espousal_n and_o those_o between_o man_n and_o woman_n there_o if_o the_o man_n heart_n continue_v faithful_a happy_o she_o may_v fall_v off_o and_o never_o close_o again_o and_o there_o be_v a_o end_n of_o the_o matter_n but_o here_o the_o lord_n jesus_n his_o heart_n be_v not_o only_o towards_o his_o people_n but_o he_o keep_v their_o heart_n with_o he_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o depart_v it_o be_v the_o very_a tenor_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o
