they_o be_v gentile_n now_o because_o the_o same_o or_o another_o jew_n may_v reply_v upon_o this_o and_o say_v yea_o but_o for_o all_o thy_o say_n paul_n though_o i_o shall_v grant_v that_o that_o

we_o seek_v justification_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n and_o we_o be_v or_o shall_v be_v justify_v by_o so_o do_v to_o this_o objection_n the_o apostle_n answer_v verse_n 10_o 11_o 12_o 13._o to_o this_o effect_n no_o neither_o shall_v you_o be_v justify_v for_o this_o neither_o which_o may_v be_v prove_v by_o that_o which_o god_n say_v unto_o rebecca_n while_o she_o have_v two_o twin_n

those_o which_o do_v believe_v though_o they_o be_v gentile_n he_o show_v verse_n 17._o by_o the_o example_n which_o god_n show_v upon_o pharaoh_n that_o there_o be_v no_o unrighteousness_n in_o god_n if_o he_o do_v not_o justify_v a_o jew_n though_o he_o be_v a_o jew_n by_o birth_n and_o seek_v justification_n by_o work_n if_o he_o believe_v not_o and_o conclude_v verse_n 18._o that_o god_n do_v just_o justify_v who_o he_o will_v and_o do_v just_o deny_v justification_n to_o who_o he_o will_v yea_o and_o harden_v they_o too_o and_o now_o be_v that_o god_n do_v every_o where_o complain_v of_o the_o jew_n and_o threaten_v to_o destroy_v they_o for_o the_o hardness_n of_o their_o heart_n a_o malapert_v jew_n start_v up_o and_o hear_v paul_n say_v that_o god_n harden_v who_o he_o will_v say_v

show_v that_o god_n do_v harden_v they_o only_o occasional_o in_o that_o he_o do_v not_o cut_v they_o off_o but_o do_v endure_v they_o with_o much_o long-suffering_a by_o which_o those_o vessel_n of_o wrath_n that_o be_v they_o which_o be_v contentious_a and_o obey_v not_o the_o truth_n but_o obey_v unrighteousness_n fit_v themselves_o for_o destruction_n for_o though_o by_o his_o long-suffering_a god_n lead_v they_o to_o repentance_n yet_o they_o by_o the_o abuse_n thereof_o contract_a hardness_n and_o a_o impoenitent_a heart_n upon_o themselves_o heap_v up_o wrath_n against_o the_o day_n of_o wrath_n and_o revelation_n of_o the_o righteous_a judgement_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o unrighteousness_n in_o god_n if_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o show_v his_o wrath_n upon_o those_o vessel_n of_o wrath_n if_o they_o will_v not_o repent_v he_o find_v fault_n with_o they_o when_o they_o repent_v not_o and_o if_o by_o so_o do_v he_o show_v the_o abundance_n of_o his_o goodness_n also_o to_o the_o vessel_n of_o mercy_n by_o justify_v they_o and_o so_o prepare_v they_o to_o glory_n as_o he_o have_v before_o determine_v which_o vessel_n of_o mercy_n he_o show_v verse_n 24._o to_o be_v they_o which_o believe_v not_o of_o the_o jswe_v only_o but_o of_o the_o gentile_n also_o then_o to_o confirm_v what_o he_o have_v say_v concern_v those_o disobedient_a jew_n and_o the_o believe_a gentile_n he_o bring_v divers_a testimony_n out_o of_o the_o scripture_n verse_n 25_o 26_o 27_o 28_o 29._o and_o then_o he_o gather_v out_o of_o what_o he_o have_v say_v that_o the_o believe_a gentile_n have_v attain_v to_o justification_n by_o their_o faith_n ver_fw-la 30._o but_o the_o jew_n for_o the_o great_a part_n of_o they_o miss_v of_o justification_n because_o they_o seek_v it_o not_o by_o faith_n but_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n and_o so_o have_v make_v way_n to_o that_o which_o he_o leave_v imperfect_a at_o the_o six_o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n chap._n x._o in_o the_o ten_o chapter_n he_o show_v what_o that_o be_v which_o he_o say_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o nine_o do_v grieve_v he_o for_o the_o jew_n which_o be_v this_o that_o they_o be_v ignorant_a of_o god_n way_n of_o righteousness_n and_o go_v about_o to_o establish_v their_o own_o way_n of_o righteousness_n submit_v not_o themselves_o unto_o that_o way_n of_o

verse_n 4._o he_o show_v why_o they_o submit_v not_o themselves_o to_o that_o way_n of_o righteousness_n or_o justification_n which_o god_n have_v appoint_v the_o reason_n be_v because_o they_o be_v offend_v at_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n for_o righteousness_n then_o he_o show_v that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o all_o one_o verse_n 5_o 6_o 7_o 8_o 9_o 10_o 11_o 12_o 13_o 14._o then_o from_o verse_n 14_o to_o the_o end_n he_o show_v that_o the_o gospel_n ought_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o the_o gentile_n and_o be_v preach_v to_o they_o and_o they_o receive_v it_o glad_o but_o though_o it_o be_v preach_v to_o the_o jew_n yet_o they_o refuse_v it_o and_o will_v have_v none_o of_o it_o wherefore_o because_o some_o may_v doubt_v concern_v the_o perverseness_n of_o the_o jew_n whether_o god_n have_v not_o or_o will_v not_o cast_v they_o off_o whole_o for_o this_o their_o perverseness_n chap._n xi_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o eleven_o chapter_n move_v the_o question_n whether_o god_n have_v cast_v off_o his_o people_n the_o jew_n or_o no_o and_o answer_v it_o in_o the_o negative_a verse_n 1_o and_o to_o prove_v that_o he_o have_v not_o cast_v they_o all_o off_o he_o show_v that_o he_o be_v a_o jew_n and_o yet_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n and_o that_o the_o jew_n be_v a_o people_n who_o god_n do_v foreknow_v that_o be_v who_o god_n do_v determine_v from_o eternity_n so_o to_o love_v as_o not_o utter_o to_o forsake_v they_o verse_n 2._o and_o
fit_v by_o themselves_o to_o destruction_n what_o i_o say_v if_o god_n be_v angry_a or_o find_v fault_n with_o they_o for_o this_o or_o what_o if_o god_n be_v say_v to_o harden_v they_o because_o they_o take_v occasion_n from_o this_o his_o long-suffering_a to_o harden_v their_o own_o heart_n what_o can_v thou_o say_v to_o this_o or_o what_o unrighteousness_n be_v there_o in_o god_n for_o this_o and_o what_o if_o moreover_o he_o do_v this_o as_o it_o follow_v verse_n 23._o for_o this_o end_n viz._n that_o he_o may_v make_v know_v the_o riches_n of_o his_o glory_n on_o the_o vessel_n of_o mercy_n which_o he_o have_v before_o prepare_v to_o glory_n what_o can_v thou_o say_v to_o it_o or_o what_o unrighteousness_n be_v there_o in_o god_n for_o it_o note_v therefore_o first_o that_o the_o apostle_n do_v here_o give_v in_o this_o 22._o verse_n a_o more_o direct_a answer_n than_o he_o do_v in_o the_o two_o forego_v verse_n to_o that_o saucy_a question_n which_o he_o malapert_v jew_n make_v when_o he_o hear_v saint_n paul_n say_v of_o god_n that_o who_o he_o will_v he_o harden_v viz._n why_o do_v he_o yet_o find_v fault_n for_o who_o have_v resist_v his_o will_n in_o which_o answer_n he_o show_v that_o god_n may_v just_o find_v fault_n and_o be_v angry_a with_o the_o harden_a jew_n and_o that_o god_n be_v not_o say_v to_o harden_v they_o because_o he_o positive_o wrought_v hardness_n in_o they_o but_o because_o they_o themselves_o harden_v their_o heart_n and_o he_o suffer_v they_o to_o harden_v they_o by_o his_o long-suffering_a to_o they_o note_n second_o that_o those_o jew_n who_o hardness_n god_n be_v say_v to_o complain_v of_o ver._n 19_o be_v such_o as_o seek_v justification_n otherwise_o than_o by_o faith_n and_o will_v not_o believe_v the_o gospel_n when_o it_o be_v preach_v to_o they_o but_o be_v contentious_a against_o it_o for_o the_o jew_n for_o the_o most_o part_n when_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v unto_o they_o do_v not_o only_o not_o believe_v it_o but_o be_v contentious_a against_o it_o as_o will_v appear_v by_o the_o history_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n note_n three_o that_o those_o jew_n be_v call_v vessel_n of_o wrath_n in_o opposition_n to_o those_o believer_n which_o be_v call_v vessel_n of_o mercy_n ver_fw-la 32._o and_o they_o may_v be_v call_v vessel_n in_o allusion_n to_o potter_n vessel_n of_o

repent_v not_o note_v fourthly_a that_o these_o vessel_n of_o wrath_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v fit_v to_o destruction_n because_o when_o god_n be_v long-suffering_a to_o they_o thereby_o to_o lead_v they_o to_o repentance_n they_o abuse_v that_o long-suffering_a of_o god_n and_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v lead_v to_o repentance_n as_o that_o they_o harden_v their_o heart_n against_o the_o
