of_o the_o baptist_n to_o turn_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n to_o the_o child_n etc._n etc._n the_o case_n be_v woeful_a when_o father_n and_o son_n have_v need_n of_o a_o reconciler_n to_o

to_o the_o child_n or_o to_o do_v this_o work_n for_o i_o find_v it_o a_o very_o hard_a task_n and_o trouble_n to_o expositor_n to_o find_v out_o and_o to_o resolve_v who_o these_o father_n and_o child_n be_v some_o by_o the_o father_n understand_v the_o jew_n carthis_n and_o by_o the_o child_n christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n as_o luke_n 11._o 19_o and_o that_o john_n turn_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n to_o the_o child_n when_o he_o bring_v the_o jew_n to_o embrace_v their_o doctrine_n but_o how_o can_v the_o other_o part_n be_v make_v good_a with_o this_o gloss_n that_o he_o turn_v the_o heart_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n to_o the_o jew_n some_o render_v it_o thus_o he_o shall_v turn_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n to_o the_o child_n by_o the_o right_a understanding_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o the_o disobedient_a to_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o righteous_a by_o the_o obedience_n of_o faith_n a_o exposition_n that_o leave_v we_o as_o far_o to_o seek_v who_o be_v the_o father_n and_o who_o the_o child_n as_o we_o be_v before_o other_o therefore_o come_v near_o the_o letter_n lec_n and_o expound_v it_o from_o the_o difference_n that_o be_v at_o that_o time_n in_o opinion_n among_o the_o jew_n the_o father_n it_o may_v be_v a_o pharisee_n and_o one_o son_n a_o sadducee_n and_o another_o a_o essaean_a and_o john_n by_o bring_v they_o all_o to_o the_o entertainment_n of_o the_o gospel_n extinguish_v that_o division_n which_o opinion_n have_v set_v between_o they_o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o that_o these_o three_o sect_n be_v among_o the_o jew_n at_o the_o baptist_n come_v 2._o the_o three_o shepherd_n which_o be_v to_o be_v destroy_v in_o one_o month_n zach._n 11._o 8._o but_o for_o any_o such_o division_n in_o sect_n betwixt_o father_n and_o son_n it_o be_v but_o a_o conjecture_n and_o it_o can_v be_v so_o certain_o aver_v but_o further_a off_o of_o all_o other_o gloss_n and_o the_o most_o improper_a be_v that_o of_o jansenius_n and_o other_o of_o his_o feather_n which_o yet_o they_o hold_v to_o be_v the_o near_a and_o the_o proper_a of_o all_o and_o that_o be_v this_o that_o john_n turn_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o child_n to_o the_o father_n when_o he_o bring_v the_o jew_n to_o who_o he_o preach_v or_o those_o of_o his_o own_o time_n to_o embrace_v the_o faith_n and_o doctrine_n of_o the_o patriarch_n that_o have_v be_v before_o and_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n to_o the_o child_n when_o by_o reduce_v they_o thus_o to_o that_o faith_n he_o occasion_v that_o those_o holy_a man_n in_o limbo_n do_v begin_v to_o affect_v they_o and_o take_v they_o to_o heart_n which_o they_o have_v not_o do_v before_o i_o will_v not_o stand_v to_o examine_v or_o convince_v this_o exposition_n for_o it_o be_v not_o worth_a the_o labour_n you_o yourselves_o have_v confute_v it_o in_o thought_n i_o know_v as_o soon_o as_o hear_v it_o gentile_n the_o most_o genuine_a and_o real_a meaning_n of_o the_o word_n that_o we_o have_v in_o hand_n i_o conceive_v to_o be_v this_o that_o by_o the_o father_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v the_o jew_n and_o by_o the_o child_n the_o gentile_n and_o by_o john_n turn_v each_o other_o heart_n unto_o other_o his_o win_v they_o both_o joint_o and_o unanimous_o to_o the_o knowledge_n and_o profession_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o the_o gospel_n and_o by_o the_o tie_n of_o that_o to_o the_o joint_a communion_n one_o with_o another_o and_o i_o be_o make_v confident_a and_o embolden_v to_o entertain_v this_o exposition_n as_o the_o very_a meaning_n of_o the_o place_n upon_o these_o reason_n 1._o because_o the_o church_n of_o the_o gentile_n be_v style_v by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o child_n of_o the_o jew_n common_o and_o constant_o in_o the_o prophet_n as_o isaiah_n 54._o 13._o all_o thy_o child_n shall_v be_v teach_v of_o the_o lord_n and_o 60._o 4._o thy_o son_n shall_v come_v from_o far_o and_o thy_o daughter_n shall_v be_v turn_v at_o thy_o sight_n and_o 62._o 5._o as_o a_o young_a man_n marry_v a_o virgin_n so_o shall_v thy_o son_n marry_v thou_o and_o in_o very_o many_o other_o place_n 2._o because_o it_o be_v a_o special_a and_o peculiar_a work_n and_o office_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o unite_v and_o tie_v the_o jew_n and_o gentile_a into_o one_o so_o say_v the_o apostle_n ephes._n 2._o 14._o christ_n be_v our_o peace_n who_o have_v make_v both_o one_o and_o the_o gospel_n the_o mean_n and_o then_o must_v it_o be_v the_o work_n and_o office_n of_o the_o baptist_n who_o begin_v the_o gospel_n 3._o experience_n and_o the_o history_n itself_o confirm_v this_o our_o exposition_n for_o as_o the_o gospel_n in_o its_o own_o nature_n and_o promulgation_n belong_v to_o the_o gentile_n as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n 7._o and_o as_o john_n come_v for_o a_o witness_n that_o all_o through_o he_o may_v believe_v the_o one_o nation_n as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o so_o do_v he_o baptise_v and_o convert_v some_o of_o the_o one_o as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o 7._o roman_a soldier_n as_o well_o as_o jewish_a pharisee_n and_o make_v they_o both_o according_a to_o the_o phrase_n which_o josephus_n use_v of_o he_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o to_o convent_n or_o knit_v together_o in_o his_o baptism_n 4._o this_o exposition_n make_v john_n the_o more_o full_o to_o resemble_v elias_n who_o be_v a_o preacher_n and_o a_o prophet_n to_o the_o gentile_n as_o well_o as_o to_o israel_n nay_o the_o first_o prophet_n of_o the_o gentile_n this_o our_o saviour_n touch_v luke_n 4._o 25._o many_o widow_n be_v in_o israel_n in_o the_o day_n of_o elias_n but_o to_o none_o be_v he_o send_v save_v to_o one_o in_o sarepta_n a_o city_n of_o zidon_n and_o the_o
