we_o begin_v with_o the_o first_o verse_n this_o melchisedeck_v say_v the_o apostle_n be_v king_n of_o salem_n and_o priest_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n here_o be_v his_o office_n it_o be_v much_o dispute_v among_o many_o who_o this_o melchisedeck_v be_v some_o have_v think_v he_o to_o be_v a_o angel_n because_o it_o be_v say_v he_o be_v without_o father_n and_o without_o mother_n and_o without_o descent_n but_o that_o be_v clear_o answer_v and_o confute_v by_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 5_o chapter_n and_o the_o one_a and_o 2d_o verse_n for_o every_o high_a priest_n be_v to_o be_v take_v from_o among_o man_n not_o from_o among_o angel_n but_o from_o among_o man_n and_o therefore_o melchisedeck_v be_v a_o man_n and_o not_o a_o angel_n and_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o be_v without_o father_n without_o mother_n without_o descent_n which_o lead_v to_o that_o opinion_n that_o he_o be_v no_o man_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o he_o as_o to_o his_o genealogy_n for_o it_o be_v the_o custom_n of_o the_o jew_n to_o keep_v genealogy_n and_o record_n of_o their_o parentage_n in_o the_o church_n that_o they_o may_v read_v they_o in_o their_o church-book_n but_o melchisedeck_v have_v not_o this_o record_n but_o he_o be_v a_o man_n and_o the_o most_o receive_a opinion_n be_v that_o this_o melchisedeck_v be_v shem_n the_o son_n of_o noah_n for_o you_o know_v that_o noah_n have_v three_o son_n shem_o ham_n and_o japhet_n these_o three_o son_n replenish_v the_o whole_a earth_n after_o the_o flood_n as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o gen._n 9_o 18_o 19_o and_o that_o this_o melchisedeck_v be_v shem_n and_o have_v his_o name_n give_v he_o afterward_o melchisedeck_v from_o his_o kingdom_n and_o goodness_n and_o the_o reason_n for_o it_o be_v these_o first_o of_o all_o shem_fw-mi live_v six_o hundred_o year_n he_o live_v a_o hundred_o year_n before_o the_o flood_n and_o five_o hundred_o year_n after_o the_o flood_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o 11_o of_o gen._n the_o 10_o and_o 11._o verse_n he_o be_v one_o hundred_o year_n before_o the_o flood_n and_o five_o hundred_o year_n after_o it_o when_o the_o world_n be_v plant_v again_o and_o this_o be_v give_v as_o a_o reason_n why_o his_o genealogy_n can_v not_o be_v find_v for_o the_o flood_n destroy_v all_o person_n but_o a_o few_o and_o their_o record_n and_o genealogy_n may_v be_v lose_v the_o second_o reason_n give_v for_o shem_n be_v this_o melchisedeck_v be_v that_o he_o be_v the_o person_n that_o in_o the_o 9th_o of_o gen._n god_n style_v himself_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o shem_n the_o 26._o verse_n three_o shem_o the_o son_n of_o noah_n have_v the_o promise_n make_v to_o he_o as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o that_o 9th_o of_o gen._n he_o have_v the_o promise_n of_o propagate_a the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v god_n shall_v persuade_v japhet_n to_o dwell_v in_o the_o tent_n of_o shem_n and_o shem_n be_v great_a grandsire_n to_o abraham_n for_o abraham_n stock_n do_v spring_v out_o of_o this_o root_n of_o shem._n four_o another_o reason_n be_v this_o that_o of_o this_o son_n of_o noah_n of_o his_o stock_n come_v christ_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n that_o you_o have_v in_o the_o three_o of_o luke_n speak_v of_o the_o genealogy_n of_o christ_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n the_o 36th_o verse_n which_o be_v the_o son_n of_o shem_n which_o be_v the_o son_n noah_n so_o that_o christ_n genealogy_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n be_v reckon_v from_o shem_n and_o for_o these_o reason_n it_o be_v most_o general_o believe_v that_o this_o melchisedeck_v be_v shem_n the_o son_n of_o noah_n but_o whether_o that_o be_v so_o or_o no_o he_o be_v a_o man_n for_o he_o can_v not_o be_v a_o angel_n because_o he_o be_v a_o great_a and_o honourable_a person_n in_o the_o world_n in_o who_o the_o propagation_n of_o the_o church_n consist_v now_o we_o must_v not_o only_o consider_v his_o person_n but_o his_o place_n king_n of_o salem_n what_o be_v that_o country_n salem_n it_o be_v a_o country_n that_o border_v upon_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n where_o abraham_n sojourn_v and_o this_o country_n of_o salem_n border_v upon_o canaan_n and_o in_o this_o place_n be_v the_o temple_n build_v afterward_o and_o the_o city_n of_o jerusalem_n for_o you_o must_v know_v jerusalem_n be_v a_o word_n compound_v of_o two_o word_n jeru_n and_o salem_n salem_n be_v the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o word_n jerusalem_n jeru_n signify_v god_n will_v provide_v it_o be_v the_o same_o word_n which_o abraham_n say_v to_o his_o son_n when_o he_o be_v offer_v he_o up_o for_o a_o sacrifice_n he_o say_v god_n will_v provide_v and_o salem_n signify_v peace_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o 76_o psal_n in_o the_o 1_o and_o 2._o ver_fw-la in_o judah_n god_n be_v know_v in_o salem_n be_v his_o tabernacle_n i._n e._n in_o jerusalem_n now_o of_o this_o place_n melchisedeck_v be_v king_n he_o be_v king_n of_o that_o country_n that_o border_v upon_o canaan_n and_o he_o be_v priest_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n here_o he_o govern_v as_o king_n and_o here_o he_o govern_v as_o a_o magistrate_n and_o here_o he_o keep_v up_o the_o word_n of_o god_n as_o a_o minister_n hence_o you_o may_v observe_v that_o god_n will_v never_o in_o any_o age_n of_o the_o world_n let_v his_o true_a worship_n fall_v in_o the_o world_n but_o there_o shall_v be_v some_o to_o keep_v it_o up_o here_o you_o have_v a_o melchisedeck_v that_o be_v king_n of_o salem_n that_o keep_v up_o the_o true_a worship_n in_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n he_o keep_v up_o the_o name_n of_o the_o most_o high_a and_o great_a god_n so_o that_o we_o may_v comfort_v ourselves_o with_o this_o that_o god_n will_v never_o let_v his_o worship_n fall_v to_o the_o ground_n this_o melchisedeck_v be_v king_n of_o salem_n and_o priest_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n king_n of_o salem_n there_o be_v a_o mystery_n in_o that_o it_o be_v say_v he_o be_v priest_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n and_o for_o this_o reason_n good_a abraham_n show_v he_o that_o respect_n he_o do_v as_o to_o give_v he_o the_o ten_o of_o all_o the_o spoil_n if_o mechisedeck_v have_v be_v a_o priest_n of_o baal_n or_o of_o a_o idol_n god_n abraham_n will_v have_v turn_v his_o back_n upon_o he_o for_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o godly_a man_n to_o bear_v their_o testimony_n against_o idol-priest_n and_o from_o hence_o we_o may_v brief_o take_v notice_n of_o this_o from_o abraham_n practice_n to_o show_v our_o respect_n to_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n who_o faithful_o labour_v in_o the_o word_n and_o doctrine_n but_o that_o which_o i_o will_v chief_o take_v notice_n of_o in_o this_o branch_n of_o the_o text_n be_v this_o he_o be_v style_v priest_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n that_o be_v one_o of_o the_o glorious_a title_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o scripture_n speak_v much_o of_o god_n as_o the_o most_o high_a in_o the_o 113._o psal_n 2_o 3_o 4._o bless_a be_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n from_o this_o time_n forth_o and_o for_o evermore_o from_o the_o rise_n of_o the_o sun_n unto_o the_o go_n down_o of_o the_o same_o the_o lord_n name_n be_v to_o be_v praise_v the_o lord_n be_v high_a above_o all_o nation_n etc._n etc._n the_o most_o high_a god_n this_o shall_v teach_v we_o to_o use_v the_o name_n of_o god_n always_o with_o a_o holy_a awful_a reverence_n not_o to_o speak_v of_o god_n as_o you_o do_v of_o man_n you_o know_v man_n look_v for_o their_o title_n when_o they_o come_v into_o place_n of_o greatness_n and_o honour_n they_o will_v be_v call_v your_o highness_n and_o your_o majesty_n and_o the_o like_a shall_v we_o speak_v so_o to_o man_n and_o shall_v we_o not_o speak_v to_o the_o most_o high_a god_n with_o a_o awful_a reverence_n and_o fear_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n though_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o equal_a with_o god_n yet_o take_v upon_o he_o our_o nature_n when_o he_o come_v to_o speak_v to_o

show_v how_o we_o must_v use_v the_o holy_a name_n of_o god_n with_o reverence_n there_o be_v a_o passage_n in_o malachi_n where_o the_o lord_n rebuke_v his_o people_n that_o carry_v it_o irreverent_o

can_v in_o this_o short_a life_n but_o a_o life_n of_o ease_n sloth_n and_o pleasure_n be_v a_o bad_a preparation_n for_o death_n it_o be_v true_a god_n do_v allow_v rest_n to_o the_o age_a where_o the_o body_n be_v abate_v in_o strength_n where_o the_o mind_n be_v grow_v dull_a and_o heavy_a through_o infirmity_n of_o age_n god_n allow_v that_o but_o where_o people_n be_v in_o their_o full_a

that_o shall_v not_o go_v unpunished_a say_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n and_o this_o be_v further_a to_o be_v observe_v for_o encouragement_n that_o as_o god_n appoint_v every_o one_o their_o work_n for_o their_o day_n so_o if_o they_o be_v faithful_a he_o will_v spirit_n they_o for_o the_o work_n of_o the_o day_n if_o they_o give_v not_o themselves_o up_o to_o a_o life_n of_o ease_n sloth_n

to_o which_o be_v great_a encouragement_n to_o be_v do_v the_o work_n of_o god_n in_o our_o day_n moses_n and_o aaron_n be_v two_o great_a blessing_n to_o the_o people_n in_o their_o day_n though_o

forth_o labourer_n into_o his_o harvest_n a_o good_a succession_n speak_v a_o great_a favour_n of_o god_n to_o family_n church_n and_o nation_n see_v how_o careful_a moses_n be_v in_o that_o when_o god_n have_v tell_v he_o that_o he_o must_v die_v in_o numb_a 27._o 16._o let_v the_o lord_n the_o god_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o flesh_n set_v a_o man_n over_o the_o congregation_n these_o be_v the_o word_n of_o moses_n when_o god_n tell_v he_o that_o he_o must_v die_v and_o be_v gather_v to_o his_o father_n and_o true_o so_o shall_v all_o godly_a parent_n and_o godly_a minister_n say_v let_v the_o god_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o flesh_n bring_v in_o some_o to_o my_o family_n that_o may_v go_v out_o and_o in_o before_o my_o family_n and_o let_v the_o god_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o flesh_n bring_v in_o some_o to_o his_o church_n to_o guide_v they_o and_o to_o teach_v they_o but_o now_o god_n he_o answer_v moses_n prayer_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o follow_a

mortality_n of_o the_o levitical_a priesthood_n come_v we_o now_o to_o the_o second_o point_n and_o general_a observation_n and_o that_o be_v the_o immortality_n of_o our_o great_a high_a priest_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n here_o our_o chief_a comfort_n lie_v that_o though_o all_o mankind_n die_v and_o be_v not_o suffer_v to_o continue_v by_o reason_n of_o death_n but_o this_o man_n because_o he_o ever_o live_v have_v a_o unchangeable_a priesthood_n now_o what_o be_v speak_v of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n of_o his_o abide_n for_o ever_o it_o must_v be_v understand_v and_o apply_v to_o he_o as_o man_n as_o he_o be_v man_n god-man_n and_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n as_o he_o be_v take_v from_o among_o man_n to_o stand_v for_o man_n in_o thing_n pertain_v to_o

christ_n abide_v for_o ever_o it_o be_v a_o stumble_n to_o they_o and_o therefore_o here_o lie_v the_o objection_n how_o be_v it_o say_v that_o christ_n abide_v for_o ever_o and_o live_v for_o ever_o when_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o he_o die_v we_o read_v in_o matth._n 2._o 50._o that_o he_o give_v up_o the_o ghost_n he_o die_v and_o give_v up_o the_o ghost_n how_o be_v it_o then_o say_v that_o he_o abide_v for_o ever_o and_o live_v for_o ever_o as_o our_o highpriest_n i_o answer_v to_o that_o we_o must_v consider_v four_o thing_n to_o clear_v that_o objection_n first_o of_o all_o though_o christ_n do_v die_v for_o a_o time_n yet_o his_o death_n be_v not_o such_o a_o force_a death_n as_o man_n be_v but_o a_o voluntary_a death_n he_o lay_v it_o down_o and_o take_v it_o up_o again_o of_o himself_o so_o you_o have_v it_o in_o john_n 10_o 17_o 18._o therefore_o do_v the_o father_n love_v i_o because_o i_o lay_v down_o my_o life_n that_o i_o may_v take_v it_o again_o no_o man_n take_v it_o from_o i_o but_o i_o lay_v it_o down_o of_o myself_o i_o have_v power_n to_o lay_v it_o down_o and_o i_o have_v power_n to_o take_v it_o again_o here_o you_o see_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n do_v not_o die_v as_o we_o die_v by_o a_o force_a death_n he_o lay_v it_o down_o and_o he_o take_v it_o up_o again_o when_o he_o please_v 2._o though_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o to_o his_o humanity_n be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o death_n yet_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o he_o shall_v be_v hold_v of_o death_n or_o the_o grave_n act_v 2._o 24._o why_o not_o possible_a you_o see_v that_o man_n be_v hold_v of_o death_n thousand_o of_o year_n and_o they_o be_v not_o rise_v to_o this_o day_n why_o not_o possible_a that_o he_o shall_v be_v hold_v of_o death_n why_o because_o the_o divine_a nature_n be_v hypostatical_o unite_v to_o the_o (null)_o nature_n god_n
