jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o minister_n of_o circumcision_n for_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n to_o confirm_v the_o promise_n make_v unto_o the_o father_n 9_o and_o the_o gentile_n ought_v to_o praise_v

rejoice_v you_o gentile_n with_o his_o people_n 11_o and_o again_o praise_v the_o lord_n all_o you_o gentile_n &_o magnify_v he_o together_o all_o you_o people_n 12_o and_o again_o esay_n say_v there_o shall_v be_v a_o root_n of_o less_o and_o he_o which_o shall_v rise_v to_o rule_v the_o nation_n in_o he_o shall_v the_o gentile_n trust_v 7_o therefore_o receive_v one_o another_o he_o return_v unto_o his_o exhortation_n for_o confirmation_n whereof_o he_o always_o reteyn_v the_o example_n of_o christ_n for_o he_o have_v embrace_v not_o one_o or_o two_o of_o we_o but_o altogether_o have_v so_o join_v we_o together_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o cherish_v one_o another_o if_o that_o we_o will_v abide_v in_o his_o bosom_n so_o then_o we_o shall_v confirm_v our_o vocation_n or_o calling_n if_o we_o separate_v not_o ourselves_o from_o those_o to_o who_o the_o lord_n have_v bind_v us._n this_o parcel_n to_o the_o glory_n may_v be_v refer_v either_o unto_o we_o or_o unto_o christ_n only_o or_o unto_o we_o and_o he_o together_o which_o latter_a do_v like_o i_o best_o to_o this_o sense_n as_o christ_n have_v manifest_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n in_o receive_v we_o all_o into_o favour_n when_o we_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o mercy_n so_o we_o also_o to_o the_o set_v forth_o of_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o same_o god_n aught_o to_o establish_v that_o conjunction_n which_o we_o have_v in_o christ_n 9_o and_o i_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n now_o he_o show_v how_o christ_n have_v receive_v we_o all_o where_o he_o leave_v no_o difference_n between_o the_o jew_n and_o gentile_n save_v that_o he_o be_v first_o promise_v to_o the_o jew_n and_o in_o a_o manner_n peculiar_o appoint_v to_o they_o before_o he_o shall_v be_v exhibit_v to_o the_o gentile_n howbeit_o he_o show_v that_o even_o in_o that_o which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o contention_n there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o they_o because_o he_o collect_v or_o gather_v they_o both_o from_o a_o miserable_a dissipation_n or_o dispersion_n and_o be_v gather_v together_o have_v bring_v they_o into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o father_n that_o they_o may_v be_v one_o flock_n in_o one_o fold_n under_o one_o shepherd_n thereupon_o he_o infer_v that_o they_o ought_v to_o agree_v among_o themselves_o and_o not_o contemn_v one_o another_o see_v christ_n do_v contemn_v neither_o of_o they_o first_o therefore_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o jew_n and_o say_v christ_n be_v send_v unto_o they_o that_o he_o may_v fulfil_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n in_o perform_v the_o promise_n give_v to_o the_o father_n and_o this_o be_v a_o singular_a honour_n that_o christ_n be_v lord_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n become_v flesh_n that_o he_o may_v serve_v to_o their_o salvation_n for_o the_o more_o he_o humble_v himself_o for_o their_o sake_n the_o more_o he_o honour_v they_o and_o that_o he_o take_v as_o undoubted_a for_o a_o thing_n confess_v whereby_o it_o be_v more_o wonder_a that_o there_o shall_v be_v so_o great_a impudency_n in_o certain_a frenzy_n head_n that_o they_o doubt_v not_o to_o conclude_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o tie_v unto_o this_o present_a world_n all_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o lest_o the_o gentile_n shall_v arrogate_v to_o themselves_o any_o dignity_n above_o the_o jew_n paul_n plainelye_o denounce_v that_o salvation_n which_o christ_n bring_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o covenaunt_n to_o be_v proper_a unto_o the_o jew_n because_o by_o his_o come_n he_o fulfil_v that_o which_o the_o father_n in_o old_a time_n promise_v to_o abraham_n and_o so_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o that_o people_n whereby_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o old_a covenant_n indeed_o be_v spiritual_a notwithstanding_o it_o be_v annex_v unto_o earthly_a figure_n for_o that_o accomplishment_n of_o the_o which_o paul_n now_o speak_v must_v needs_o he_o refer_v unto_o eternal_a salvation_n final_o lest_o any_o shall_v cavil_n that_o salvation_n be_v only_o promise_v to_o the_o nephew_n see_v the_o covenant_n be_v commit_v to_o the_o hand_n of_o abraham_n express_o he_o bind_v the_o promise_n to_o the_o father_n therefore_o either_o the_o virtue_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v contain_v in_o corporal_a benefit_n or_o the_o covenant_n make_v with_o abraham_n be_v extend_v further_o then_o to_o the_o flesh_n gentile_n the_o call_n of_o the_o gentile_n 9_o and_o the_o gentile_n for_o his_o mercy_n this_o be_v the_o other_o member_n in_o confirm_v whereof_o because_o it_o be_v doubtful_a he_o stay_v long_o 22.50_o psal_n 18.50_o 2._o sam._n 22.50_o the_o first_o testimony_n which_o he_o cit_v be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o 18._o psalm_n which_o psalm_n be_v rehearse_v in_o the_o second_o of_o samuel_n where_o without_o doubt_n be_v utter_v a_o pprophecy_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n furthermore_o paul_n prove_v the_o call_n of_o the_o gentile_n thereby_o because_o there_o be_v promise_v the_o confession_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n among_o the_o gentile_n for_o we_o can_v not_o preach_v god_n true_o but_o amongst_o such_o as_o do_v true_o hear_v his_o praise_n while_o they_o be_v publish_v of_o us._n wherefore_o that_o the_o name_n of_o god_n may_v be_v celebrate_v among_o the_o gentile_n they_o must_v needs_o be_v endue_v with_o knowledge_n and_o come_v into_o the_o fellowship_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n for_o thou_o may_v see_v this_o every_o where_o in_o the_o scripture_n that_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n can_v not_o be_v preach_v but_o in_o the_o congregation_n of_o the_o faithful_a who_o ear_n be_v capable_a to_o hear_v his_o praise_n 10_o rejoice_v you_o gentile_n with_o his_o people_n where_o as_o they_o common_o interpret_v this_o verse_n as_o think_v it_o be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o song_n of_o moses_n that_o i_o like_v not_o because_o in_o that_o place_n moses_n go_v about_o rather_o to_o terrify_v the_o adversary_n of_o israel_n with_o his_o greatness_n then_o to_o invite_v they_o unto_o a_o common_a rejoice_v therefore_o i_o take_v it_o rather_o to_o be_v borrow_v out_o of_o the_o 67._o psalm_n where_o it_o be_v say_v let_v the_o gentile_n rejoice_v and_o be_v glad_a 67.5_o psalm_n 67.5_o because_o thou_o iudge_v the_o people_n in_o equity_n and_o govern_v the_o nation_n in_o the_o earth_n and_o whereas_o paul_n have_v add_v of_o his_o own_o with_o the_o people_n of_o god_n that_o he_o have_v do_v by_o the_o way_n of_o explication_n for_o there_o in_o deed_n the_o prophet_n join_v the_o gentile_n with_o israel_n and_o invit_v both_o of_o they_o to_o gather_v unto_o rejoice_v which_o can_v not_o consist_v but_o in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n 11_o praise_v he_o all_o you_o nation_n neither_o be_v this_o place_n unapt_o apply_v for_o how_o shall_v they_o praise_v god_n who_o know_v not_o his_o greatness_n they_o can_v do_v that_o no_o more_o then_o call_v upon_o his_o name_n when_o they_o know_v it_o not_o it_o be_v therefore_o a_o very_a fit_n prophesy_v to_o prove_v the_o call_n of_o the_o gentile_n and_o that_o may_v better_o appear_v by_o a_o reason_n which_o be_v add_v there_o for_o he_o bid_v they_o give_v thanks_n for_o his_o truth_n

bring_v to_o desperation_n comfort_v the_o small_a remnant_n of_o the_o faithful_a namely_o in_o this_o that_o there_o shall_v arise_v a_o graft_n out_o of_o the_o dry_a and_o dead_a stock_n of_o the_o house_n of_o david_n and_o a_o branch_n shall_v flourish_v out_o of_o the_o despise_a root_n that_o shall_v restore_v the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o their_o former_a glory_n it_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o description_n there_o put_v down_o that_o this_o plant_n or_o graft_n be_v christ_n the_o redeemer_n of_o the_o world_n second_o he_o add_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v erect_v for_o a_o sign_n to_o the_o gentile_n that_o he_o may_v be_v unto_o they_o for_o their_o salvation_n these_o word_n very_o differ_v somewhat_o from_o the_o hebrew_n text_n for_o whereas_o we_o read_v here_o he_o do_v rise_v the_o hebrew_n text_n have_v he_o shall_v stand_v for_o a_o sign_n which_o be_v all_o one_o namely_o that_o he_o shall_v appear_v manifest_o like_o a_o sign_n for_o the_o word_n hope_v they_o

it_o come_v from_o god_n for_o as_o much_o as_o there_o be_v nothing_o to_o be_v desire_v or_o praise_v worthy_a in_o this_o world_n which_o do_v not_o proceed_v and_o come_v from_o his_o hand_n here_o also_o we_o learn_v how_o great_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v to_o be_v desire_v and_o how_o high_o it_o be_v to_o be_v esteem_v of_o all_o good_a man_n which_o be_v commend_v in_o

but_o all_o have_v not_o obey_v the_o gospel_n this_o perteyn_v nothing_o to_o that_o argument_n which_o paul_n prosecute_v and_o follow_v in_o this_o gradation_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o repeat_v it_o in_o the_o conclusion_n which_o follow_v strayghtwayes_o but_o yet_o it_o be_v very_o necessary_a &_o expedient_a for_o paul_n to_o join_v this_o also_o in_o steed_n of_o a_o preoccupation_n lest_o that_o where_o as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o word_n do_v always_o ordinary_o go_v before_o faith_n even_o as_o the_o seed_n be_v before_o the_o corn_n any_o man_n shall_v reason_v or_o draw_v a_o argument_n from_o the_o contrary_a part_n and_o infer_v that_o faith_n must_v needs_o follow_v wheresoever_o the_o word_n be_v for_o so_o may_v israel_n glory_n who_o never_o want_v the_o word_n 12.38_o though_o ordinary_o the_o word_n do_v always_o go_v before_o faith_n yet_o faith_n do_v not_o always_o follow_v where_o the_o word_n be_v jere._n 53.1_o &_o john_n 12.38_o therefore_o it_o be_v meet_v and_o requisite_a for_o he_o to_o declare_v this_o in_o his_o way_n or_o passage_n that_o many_o be_v call_v who_o be_v not_o choose_v and_o herit_v a_o place_n out_o of_o esai_n and_o john_n where_o the_o prophet_n be_v about_o to_o publish_v that_o excellent_a oracle_n of_o the_o death_n and_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n do_v first_o with_o admiration_n and_o wonder_n speak_v of_o the_o pawcitie_n and_o fewness_n of_o believer_n which_o in_o spirit_n appear_v such_o to_o he_o as_o force_v he_o to_o cry_v out_o lord_n who_o have_v believe_v our_o report_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o word_n which_o we_o have_v preach_v for_o where_o as_o the_o hebrew_n word_n shemugnah_n signify_v speech_n passive_o the_o grecian_n have_v expound_v it_o acoen_n and_o the_o latin_n sermonem_fw-la albeit_o improper_o yet_o not_o in_o any_o obscure_a or_o doubtful_a sense_n now_o we_o see_v why_o this_o exception_n be_v add_v by_o the_o way_n to_o wit_n that_o no_o man_n shall_v think_v faith_n do_v necessary_o follow_v wheresoever_o the_o prethe_a of_o the_o word_n do_v flourishe_v notwithstanding_o he_o note_v the_o reason_n afterward_o when_o he_o add_v to_o who_o

bryghtnesse_n of_o his_o spirit_n and_o so_o be_v the_o inward_a calling_n distinguish_v from_o the_o outward_a voice_n of_o man_n which_o inward_a call_n be_v only_o effectual_a and_o proper_a to_o the_o elect_a whereby_o it_o be_v evident_a how_o foolysh_o some_o man_n reason_n that_o all_o be_v indifferent_o elect_v and_o choose_v because_o the_o doctrine_n of_o salvation_n be_v universal_a and_o god_n do_v indifferent_o invite_v all_o man_n unto_o he_o for_o the_o generality_n of_o the_o promise_n alone_o of_o itself_o and_o by_o itself_o do_v not_o make_v salvation_n common_a and_o general_a to_o all_o but_o rather_o this_o peculiar_a revelation_n whereof_o the_o prophet_n make_v mention_v restrayn_v and_o ty_v it_o only_o to_o the_o elect_a 17_o therefore_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v etc._n etc._n by_o the_o conclusion_n we_o see_v what_o paul_n do_v respect_n in_o frame_v that_o his_o gradation_n namely_o to_o show_v that_o wheresoever_o faith_n be_v there_o god_n have_v already_o give_v a_o manifest_a and_o evident_a sign_n of_o his_o eletion_n second_o that_o he_o have_v pour_v out_o his_o blessing_n by_o the_o ministration_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o he_o may_v lighten_v the_o mind_n of_o man_n by_o faith_n and_o by_o the_o same_o faith_n also_o may_v prepare_v they_o to_o call_v upon_o his_o name_n wherein_o salvation_n be_v promise_v to_o all_o and_o that_o by_o this_o mean_v it_o be_v testify_v how_o the_o gentile_n be_v admit_v by_o he_o into_o the_o fellowship_n of_o the_o eternal_a inheritance_n and_o this_o a_o worthy_a and_o excellent_a place_n concern_v the_o virtue_n and_o efficatie_n of_o preach_v because_o he_o do_v testify_v that_o faith_n proceed_v and_o spring_v from_o it_o he_o confess_v true_o of_o late_a that_o of_o itself_o it_o profit_v nothing_o but_o where_o it_o please_v the_o lord_n to_o work_v this_o be_v the_o instrument_n of_o his_o power_n and_o true_o both_o the_o voice_n of_o man_n be_v unable_a by_o

may_v work_v effectual_o by_o the_o voice_n of_o man_n so_o that_o he_o may_v beget_v in_o we_o faith_n by_o his_o ministry_n furthermore_o we_o must_v note_v that_o faith_n be_v not_o ground_v upon_o any_o other_o doctrine_n then_o upon_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o paul_n do_v not_o say_v that_o faith_n do_v proceed_v from_o every_o doctrine_n only_o faith_n be_v ground_v upon_o the_o word_n of_o god_n only_o but_o he_o restrayn_v it_o by_o express_a word_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o restraynte_n be_v absurd_a if_o faith_n may_v lean_v or_o stay_v itself_o upon_o the_o decree_n of_o man_n therefore_o all_o the_o invention_n of_o man_n must_v cease_v when_o as_o the_o certainty_n of_o faith_n be_v handle_v by_o this_o mean_n also_o do_v that_o papistical_a dream_n and_o
