in_o all_o the_o book_n of_o god_n what_o sin_n be_v great_a than_o the_o sin_n of_o jerusalem_n against_o christ_n when_o he_o live_v and_o yet_o christ_n note_v look_v on_o jerusalem_n and_o weep_v

my_o brethren_n if_o the_o bowel_n of_o god_n mercy_n shall_v work_v towards_o we_o notwithstanding_o our_o great_a sin_n why_o shall_v 1._o not_o the_o bowel_n of_o our_o compassion_n work_v

why_o shall_v great_a affliction_n for_o god_n hinder_v your_o heart_n work_v to_o he_o see_v great_a sin_n against_o 2._o god_n do_v not_o hinder_v god_n heart_n yern_v to_o you_o why_o shall_v any_o

he_o do_v to_o jacob_n if_o you_o forsake_v he_o not_o oh_o wretch_n that_o you_o shall_v forsake_v this_o god_n who_o you_o may_v have_v to_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n and_o jehovah_n to_o you_o oh_o let_v we_o learn_v this_o that_o when_o we_o read_v in_o scripture_n use_v or_o hear_v from_o our_o forefather_n how_o god_n have_v appear_v heretofore_o for_o his_o saint_n for_o our_o

the_o world_n begin_v there_o be_v no_o shorten_n of_o his_o power_n there_o be_v no_o darken_n of_o his_o glory_n but_o whatsoever_o power_n have_v wrought_v whatsoever_o glory_n of_o god_n have_v appear_v in_o former_a time_n we_o may_v come_v to_o have_v it_o appear_v to_o we_o now_o it_o be_v a_o mighty_a argument_n for_o people_n to_o keep_v close_o to_o god_n and_o be_v faithful_a with_o he_o even_o because_o of_o this_o four_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o image_n to_o keep_v god_n remembrance_n the_o glorious_a title_n of_o god_n and_o his_o attribute_n 4._o and_o the_o

himself_o a_o memorial_n when_o you_o read_v in_o the_o word_n this_o glorious_a title_n of_o god_n jehovah_n it_o be_v a_o better_a memorial_n of_o god_n than_o all_o the_o image_n in_o the_o world_n be_v and_o we_o may_v better_o sanctify_v god_n name_n and_o have_v our_o heart_n better_o wrought_v upon_o by_o such_o title_n of_o god_n than_o by_o all_o kind_n of_o image_n whatsoever_o the_o five_o note_n when_o god_n manifest_v himself_o in_o his_o glory_n it_o be_v not_o only_a for_o the_o present_a that_o man_n now_o may_v see_v his_o glory_n 5._o but_o it_o be_v that_o he_o may_v be_v

of_o host_n jehovah_n be_v his_o memorial_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v the_o lord_n manifest_v himself_o jehovah_n thus_o and_o thus_o and_o he_o will_v be_v remember_v in_o other_o age_n to_o be_v so_o what_o god_n do_v to_o his_o people_n in_o one_o age_n he_o do_v not_o expect_v only_o to_o have_v his_o name_n sanctify_v for_o that_o present_a but_o he_o will_v have_v it_o lay_v up_o from_o

do_v this_o oh_o that_o we_o can_v make_v this_o god_n his_o memorial_n that_o we_o can_v lay_v up_o what_o god_n have_v manifest_v of_o himself_o in_o use_v this_o age_n for_o the_o benefit_n of_o another_o age_n i_o hope_v god_n will_v one_o way_n or_o other_o provide_v mean_n for_o the_o record_v of_o the_o famous_a thing_n that_o god_n have_v do_v in_o this_o age_n that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o

last_o note_n be_v this_o when_o we_o will_v have_v a_o 6._o holy_a memorial_n of_o god_n the_o meditation_n of_o the_o name_n jehovah_n be_v very_o useful_a for_o we_o you_o that_o say_v you_o can_v

why_o isaac_n shall_v not_o send_v after_o he_o afterward_o for_o we_o never_o read_v that_o isaac_n send_v any_o servant_n after_o he_o but_o send_v he_o away_o with_o his_o staff_n in_o his_o hand_n have_v only_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n upon_o he_o therefore_o it_o be_v more_o probable_a this_o that_o god_n do_v mean_a to_o train_v up_o jacob_n in_o a_o low_a reason_n condition_n in_o a_o
