captivity_n his_o own_o peculiar_a people_n the_o jew_n and_o to_o redeem_v they_o out_o of_o the_o power_n of_o a_o mighty_a king_n he_o choose_v they_o a_o king_n moses_n who_o none_o will_v deny_v to_o be_v a_o king_n that_o know_v what_o belong_v to_o the_o office_n and_o power_n of_o a_o king_n although_o he_o be_v not_o name_v a_o king_n for_o he_o as_o only_o supreme_a under_o god_n by_o god_n own_o appointment_n not_o by_o the_o people_n election_n exercise_v all_o the_o office_n of_o a_o king_n over_o that_o people_n he_o be_v their_o chief_a captain_n and_o their_o chief_a judge_n and_o so_o be_v all_o his_o successor_n after_o he_o that_o go_v by_o the_o name_n of_o judge_n they_o be_v king_n and_o sovereign_n in_o their_o turn_n and_o be_v then_o call_v judge_n as_o i_o conceive_v propter_fw-la excellentiam_fw-la because_o it_o be_v the_o chief_a part_n of_o a_o king_n office_n by_o himself_o and_o his_o deputy_n to_o administer_v justice_n between_o his_o subject_n and_o in_o those_o day_n and_o long_o before_o most_o king_n be_v call_v judge_n though_o of_o latter_a time_n the_o word_n be_v applicable_a to_o the_o inferior_a magistrate_n only_o god_n himself_o be_v call_v the_o judge_n of_o all_o the_o earth_n as_o well_o as_o the_o king_n of_o king_n that_o the_o judge_n of_o israel_n that_o succeed_v moses_n may_v as_o well_o have_v be_v call_v king_n as_o judge_n will_v plain_o appear_v if_o we_o consider_v the_o signification_n of_o the_o word_n king_n and_o the_o office_n and_o power_n exercise_v by_o those_o judge_n as_o to_o the_o word_n king_n it_o signify_v he_o that_o have_v the_o high_a power_n and_o command_n in_o a_o country_n and_o those_o judge_n in_o their_o turn_n and_o but_o one_o at_o once_o and_o during_o his_o life_n exercise_v all_o the_o power_n of_o a_o king_n they_o command_v the_o officer_n of_o the_o people_n and_o judge_v israel_n and_o i_o will_v also_o note_v unto_o you_o that_o most_o of_o they_o be_v choose_v by_o god_n himself_o and_o but_o very_o rare_o by_o the_o people_n and_o when_o ever_o they_o do_v usurp_v upon_o god_n prerogative_n in_o that_o particular_a as_o they_o do_v when_o of_o their_o own_o accord_n they_o choose_v abimeleck_n the_o base_a son_n of_o jerubbaal_n it_o soon_o happen_v that_o they_o fall_v a_o butcher_a one_o another_o and_o thereby_o reduce_v themselves_o to_o such_o a_o confuse_a state_n for_o want_n of_o a_o rightful_o constitute_v king_n or_o judge_n that_o they_o be_v bring_v to_o the_o brink_n of_o ruin_n and_o so_o it_o happen_v to_o they_o always_o when_o they_o transgress_v in_o that_o nature_n but_o still_o upon_o recantation_n and_o seek_v to_o god_n he_o will_v vouchsafe_v to_o choose_v they_o a_o king_n then_o call_v a_o judge_n and_o whilst_o they_o can_v keep_v such_o a_o judge_n they_o do_v well_o enough_o yet_o after_o a_o little_a prosperity_n they_o be_v still_o apt_a to_o return_v to_o their_o licentious_a liberty_n and_o after_o this_o rate_n do_v they_o continue_v for_o about_o four_o hundred_o year_n but_o at_o length_n it_o be_v bring_v to_o that_o pass_n by_o their_o perverse_a self-conceitedness_n that_o god_n have_v quite_o forsake_v they_o and_o whereas_o former_o god_n do_v often_o converse_v with_o their_o prophet_n as_o one_o man_n do_v with_o another_o by_o word_n of_o mouth_n and_o direct_v they_o they_o reject_v his_o direction_n and_o depend_v only_o on_o their_o own_o policy_n so_o that_o god_n withdraw_v his_o favour_n from_o they_o for_o a_o long_a time_n and_o in_o the_o three_o of_o the_o first_o of_o samuel_n you_o will_v find_v it_o record_v that_o there_o be_v no_o open_a vision_n in_o those_o day_n but_o in_o a_o while_n after_o god_n be_v please_v to_o reveal_v himself_o again_o to_o samuel_n and_o to_o advise_v he_o how_o to_o retrieve_v and_o govern_v those_o almost_o lose_v people_n and_o forasmuch_o as_o soon_o after_o they_o ask_v for_o a_o king_n and_o that_o it_o be_v there_o say_v that_o god_n be_v angry_a with_o they_o for_o it_o and_o forasmuch_o as_o that_o passage_n be_v make_v use_n of_o by_o some_o as_o a_o argument_n against_o kingly_a government_n i_o can_v omit_v show_v unto_o you_o that_o god_n be_v not_o against_o their_o have_v any_o king_n at_o all_o but_o the_o displeasure_n be_v because_o they_o will_v at_o that_o very_a time_n have_v another_o governor_n or_o king_n than_o god_n have_v set_v over_o they_o which_o be_v samuel_n such_o a_o feeble_a old_a man_n as_o he_o according_a to_o their_o understanding_n be_v not_o fit_a to_o govern_v they_o they_o do_v not_o at_o all_o regard_n it_o that_o god_n be_v with_o he_o and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o anger_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o sequel_n of_o the_o story_n for_o say_v god_n to_o samuel_n they_o have_v not_o reject_v thou_o but_o i_o have_v they_o reject_v and_o this_o i_o do_v the_o more_o firm_o believe_v to_o be_v the_o true_a meaning_n of_o that_o passage_n and_o reason_n of_o god_n anger_n for_o god_n design_v long_o before_o that_o time_n that_o they_o shall_v have_v a_o king_n and_o consequent_o shall_v be_v govern_v by_o a_o kingly_a government_n though_o you_o say_v page_n 36._o that_o it_o be_v a_o government_n of_o their_o own_o choice_n for_o in_o numb_a 24_o verse_n the_o 7._o the_o prophet_n balaam_n foretell_v

have_v be_v in_o vain_a whereby_o it_o be_v most_o manifest_a that_o the_o mere_a desire_v of_o a_o king_n as_o some_o will_v have_v it_o be_v not_o the_o fault_n but_o desire_v a_o new_a king_n at_o

that_o the_o mere_a ask_n of_o a_o king_n have_v it_o be_v at_o a_o due_a time_n have_v be_v no_o offence_n because_o god_n be_v not_o long_o angry_a nor_o do_v he_o long_o withstand_v their_o desire_n but_o soon_o after_o command_v samuel_n to_o hearken_v to_o the_o people_n and_o give_v they_o a_o king_n but_o this_o king_n be_v to_o be_v of_o god_n choose_v not_o of_o their_o own_o

aught_o thereof_o and_o afterward_o god_n direct_v the_o lot_n according_a to_o his_o own_o predestination_n and_o fore-appointment_n and_o when_o samuel_n present_v he_o to_o the_o people_n as_o
