commendable_a and_o no_o less_o profitable_a the_o principal_a point_n or_o part_n herein_o to_o be_v handle_v be_v these_o first_o what_o be_v both_o the_o original_n and_o accidental_a cause_n of_o dearth_n or_o famine_n declare_v in_o the_o 13._o verse_n &_o first_o part_n thereof_o second_o what_o be_v the_o effect_n and_o fruit_n thereof_o lay_v down_o in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o that_o

convenient_o come_v to_o entreat_v of_o these_o 3._o i_o must_v give_v you_o a_o taste_n of_o some_o other_o matter_n such_o as_o by_o the_o way_n of_o a_o preparation_n unto_o the_o rest_n be_v describe_v by_o this_o prophet_n in_o the_o 12._o v._o as_o namely_o what_o he_o mean_v by_o say_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v unto_o i_o the_o manner_n how_o it_o come_v from_o who_o and_o

though_o these_o three_o man_n no_o daniel_n and_o job_n be_v among_o they_o they_o shall_v deliver_v but_o their_o own_o soul_n by_o their_o righteousness_n say_v the_o lord_n but_o i_o think_v i_o

the_o same_o answer_n sure_o all_o that_o ever_o the_o word_n of_o god_n teach_v to_o be_v do_v in_o such_o a_o case_n and_o that_o be_v enough_o and_o sufficient_a if_o we_o have_v eye_n to_o see_v or_o heart_n to_o understand_v but_o in_o as_o much_o as_o many_o have_v eye_n and_o see_v not_o and_o heart_n and_o understand_v not_o for_o the_o natural_a man_n perceive_v not_o the_o thing_n that_o pertain_v to_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o how_o can_v he_o see_v that_o they_o be_v spiritual_o discern_v therefore_o have_v i_o think_v good_a at_o this_o time_n to_o lay_v open_a more_o at_o large_a the_o sense_n doctrine_n &_o use_n of_o this_o scripture_n but_o first_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o coherence_n or_o reference_n it_o may_v have_v with_o other_o place_n of_o like_a nature_n for_o in_o jeremy_n the_o 15._o chap._n v._o 1._o it_o be_v say_v upon_o like_a occasion_n though_o moses_n &_o samuel_n stand_v before_o i_o yet_o my_o affection_n can_v not_o be_v towards_o this_o people_n the_o sense_n or_o meaning_n of_o both_o which_o place_n be_v thus_o that_o there_o be_v no_o entreaty_n with_o the_o lord_n for_o the_o wicked_a and_o unrepentant_a people_n of_o the_o world_n but_o in_o no_o case_n any_o prejudice_n unto_o the_o faithful_a flock_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o as_o we_o may_v see_v how_o absolute_o the_o lord_n refuse_v to_o hear_v moses_n and_o samuel_n pray_v for_o they_o yet_o it_o shut_v not_o the_o door_n of_o repentance_n to_o the_o faithful_a and_o penitent_a as_o we_o find_v in_o verse_n 15._o &_o 19_o where_o the_o lord_n both_o promise_v unto_o jeremy_n that_o if_o he_o will_v return_v unto_o he_o and_o the_o people_n with_o he_o they_o shall_v be_v bring_v again_o and_o stand_v before_o the_o lord_n and_o jeremy_n for_o his_o own_o part_n notwithstanding_o the_o former_a communication_n pray_v say_v o_o lord_n thou_o know_v remember_v i_o and_o visit_v and_o revenge_v i_o of_o my_o persecutor_n take_v i_o not_o

we_o learn_v that_o as_o there_o be_v no_o place_n nor_o reason_n of_o reconciliation_n leave_v unto_o the_o wicked_a continue_v in_o their_o wickedness_n yet_o the_o faithful_a and_o repentant_a

for_o the_o consolation_n of_o the_o godly_a as_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n it_o may_v increase_v the_o terror_n &_o trouble_n of_o the_o wicked_a more_o and_o more_o which_o doctrine_n the_o prophet_n david_n make_v plain_a ps_n 32._o 10._o saying_n many_o sorrow_n shall_v come_v to_o the_o wicked_a but_o he_o that_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n mercy_n shall_v embrace_v he_o on_o every_o
