of_o the_o gospel_n and_o if_o my_o poorness_n can_v some_o contribution_n towards_o the_o build_n of_o zion_n the_o method_n that_o i_o prescribe_v to_o myself_o in_o this_o undertake_n some_o

4._o and_o last_o to_o clear_v and_o open_v the_o sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o text_n all_o along_o as_o it_o go_v especial_o where_o it_o be_v of_o more_o abstruseness_n and_o obscurity_n these_o two_o last_o thing_n do_v i_o assay_v and_o go_v on_o withal_o a_o great_a way_n in_o the_o work_n with_o much_o largeness_n and_o copiousness_n both_o concern_v the_o language_n and_o the_o

in_o divers_a language_n produce_v their_o sense_n and_o show_v cause_n of_o adhere_v to_o or_o refuse_v of_o their_o sense_n as_o i_o conceive_v cause_n and_o for_o the_o second_o i_o allege_v the_o

the_o jew_n and_o their_o conversion_n first_o that_o he_o shall_v turn_v their_o heart_n or_o affection_n to_o god_n as_o in_o the_o verse_n precede_v he_o shall_v turn_v many_o of_o the_o child_n

shall_v turn_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n to_o the_o child_n second_o according_a therefore_o to_o this_o double_a work_n of_o john_n upon_o the_o jew_n in_o that_o part_n of_o the_o angel_n speech_n must_v the_o like_a duplicity_n be_v look_v for_o in_o this_o that_o concern_v the_o gentile_n and_o to_o be_v understand_v though_o it_o be_v not_o express_v for_o the_o angel_n in_o this_o part_n purposely_o change_v his_o stile_n and_o neither_o call_v the_o gentile_n child_n but_o disobedient_a because_o they_o be_v general_o so_o before_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n nor_o the_o jew_n

of_o the_o righteous_a three_o it_o be_v not_o without_o divine_a reason_n that_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o gentile_n be_v not_o say_v to_o be_v turn_v to_o the_o jew_n as_o on_o the_o contrary_a it_o

betwixt_o jew_n and_o gentile_n and_o gentile_a and_o jew_n proceed_v not_o from_o the_o same_o cause_n and_o original_a the_o jew_n abhor_v the_o gentile_a not_o of_o ignorance_n but_o of_o scorn_n and_o jealousy_n partly_o because_o they_o stand_v upon_o their_o own_o dignity_n of_o be_v the_o people_n of_o god_n which_o the_o other_o be_v not_o and_o partly_o because_o they_o be_v provoke_v with_o suspicion_n that_o the_o other_o shall_v be_v the_o people_n of_o god_n when_o they_o shall_v not_o and_o therefore_o when_o the_o reconciliation_n be_v to_o be_v wrought_v between_o they_o it_o be_v say_v that_o their_o heart_n or_o affection_n shall_v be_v turn_v to_o they_o for_o they_o be_v point_n blank_a or_o diametrical_o against_o they_o before_o but_o a_o gentile_a abhor_v a_o
