A91675 Adam unvailed, and seen with open face or, Israel's right way from Egypt to Canaan, lately discovered. Wherein his estate is laid down, opened and compared with ours, under severall dispensations; in opposition to what ever hath been formerly declared by most men: in which many excellent truths appear, to the great comfort and consolation of all those that are made capable of it.

of_o god_n hold_v forth_o in_o scripture_n that_o the_o first_o adam_n be_v make_v of_o earth_n earthly_a for_o he_o lose_v nothing_o by_o his_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n he_o have_v nothing_o to_o

light_n righteousness_n wisdom_n and_o the_o like_a by_o virtue_n of_o his_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n and_o i_o make_v it_o appear_v thus_o there_o be_v two_o special_a tree_n in_o paradise_n the_o one_o be_v the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a the_o other_o be_v the_o tree_n of_o life_n the_o fruit_n of_o these_o two_o tree_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o two_o law_n of_o

before_o adam_n have_v eat_v of_o either_o of_o these_o tree_n he_o can_v have_v neither_o of_o these_o two_o law_n of_o righteousness_n which_o he_o have_v not_o until_o he_o have_v eat_v of_o the_o fruit_n thereof_o for_o proof_n whereof_o it_o will_v first_o appear_v from_o the_o very_a attribute_n or_o title_n that_o be_v put_v upon_o the_o tree_n it_o be_v call_v the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o it_o give_v &_o convey_v knowledge_n of_o what_o be_v good_a and_o what_o be_v evil_a in_o those_o who_o eat_v it_o second_o it_o may_v be_v also_o prove_v from_o the_o serpent_n testimony_n he_o speak_v in_o answer_n 4._o verse_n 3._o 4._o to_o the_o woman_n when_o she_o say_v verse_n 3._o that_o god_n have_v say_v you_o shall_v

you_o cat_n thereof_o your_o eye_n shall_v be_v open_v and_o you_o shall_v be_v as_o god_n know_v good_a and_o evil_n object_n but_o it_o may_v be_v some_o may_v say_v that_o the_o serpent_n do_v

interpretation_n of_o death_n that_o be_v the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o body_n but_o not_o according_a to_o god_n meaning_n and_o interpretation_n of_o death_n therefore_o he_o be_v call_v a_o liar_n from_o the_o begin_n as_o in_o another_o cause_n although_o the_o
witnesss_n do_v testify_v against_o christ_n matth_n 26_o 61._o and_o likewise_o against_o steven_n act._n 6._o 13._o although_o these_o witness_n speak_v nothing_o but_o truth_n as_o it_o appear_v

yet_o for_o all_o this_o those_o two_o sort_n of_o witness_n be_v call_v false_a witness_n inasmuch_o as_o they_o do_v not_o speak_v according_a to_o their_o meaning_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n the_o serpent_n be_v call_v a_o liar_n from_o the_o begin_n because_o he_o speak_v not_o according_a to_o god_n meaning_n of_o death_n but_o he_o be_v not_o a_o liar_n according_a to_o the_o woman_n sense_n or_o interpretation_n of_o death_n which_o be_v the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o body_n for_o they_o do_v eat_v that_o day_n but_o do_v not_o die_v a_o natural_a death_n thus_o it_o be_v also_o prove_v from_o the_o serpent_n testimony_n that_o their_o eye_n shall_v be_v open_v and_o they_o shall_v become_v like_o god_n know_v good_a and_o evil_a three_o it_o will_v appear_v to_o be_v a_o truth_n from_o the_o effect_n that_o the_o fruit_n do_v work_v on_o they_o by_o which_o the_o serpent_n word_n to_o the_o woman_n be_v make_v good_a vers_fw-la 6._o 7._o and_o when_o the_o woman_n see_v the_o

of_o good_a and_o evil_n according_a as_o he_o esteem_v good_a and_o evil_n in_o either_o of_o these_o relation_n therefore_o i_o say_v god_n speak_v to_o the_o trinity_n and_o not_o to_o adam_n it_o be_v impossible_a for_o god_n to_o speak_v in_o the_o way_n of_o a_o irony_n or_o deride_v or_o rather_o blasphemy_n because_o he_o speak_v not_o to_o the_o person_n offend_v as_o the_o prophet_n do_v therefore_o your_o
cover_v his_o head_n for_o as_o much_o as_o he_o be_v the_o image_n and_o gory_a of_o god_n now_o observe_v if_o that_o be_v the_o only_a reason_n why_o he_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v cover_v because_o he_o be_v the_o image_n of_o god_n i_o say_v by_o the_o same_o reason_n the_o woman_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v cover_v if_o she_o have_v be_v the_o image_n of_o god_n but_o she_o be_v not_o the_o image_n of_o god_n but_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o man_n therefore_o she_o ought_v to_o be_v cover_v i_o say_v again_o if_o they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n do_v dishonour_n god_n by_o be_v cover_v in_o pray_v or_o prophesy_v as_o it_o appear_v they_o do_v by_o the_o apostle_n reason_n then_o paul_n command_v the_o woman_n of_o the_o church_n of_o corinth_n to_o dishonour_n god_n if_o they_o be_v make_v in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n but_o they_o be_v not_o in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n therefore_o do_v not_o dishonour_n god_n but_o by_o it_o honour_v their_o husband_n further_o to_o prove_v that_o the_o woman_n be_v not_o make_v in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n speak_v of_o in_o gen._n 1._o 26._o and_o so_o consequent_o that_o the_o image_n there_o mention_v must_v needs_o be_v a_o personal_a image_n my_o second_o reason_n be_v this_o because_o adam_n and_o eve_n as_o they_o be_v make_v visible_a and_o mortal_a substance_n they_o be_v both_o typical_a of_o two_o several_a thing_n adam_n type_v out_o christ_n the_o second_o man_n and_o eve_n the_o church_n and_o as_o the_o thing_n type_v out_o be_v of_o two_o several_a nature_n or_o figure_n it_o must_v necessary_o follow_v that_o the_o type_n themselves_o must_v be_v of_o two_o nature_n or_o figure_n this_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o the_o woman_n and_o the_o man_n be_v not_o alike_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o natural_a image_n neither_o in_o shape_n strength_n or_o government_n therefore_o god_n meaning_n must_v needs_o be_v understand_v of_o man_n personal_a image_n to_o be_v make_v like_o go_n the_o three_o reason_n may_v be_v this_o because_o god_n always_o appear_v in_o the_o shape_n of_o a_o man_n and_o not_o in_o the_o shape_n of_o a_o woman_n thus_o have_v prove_v that_o the_o woman_n be_v not_o make_v in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n it_o will_v therefore_o necessary_o follow_v that_o the_o image_n speak_v of_o be_v a_o personal_a &_o visible_a image_n &_o not_o the_o image_n of_o god_n in_o respect_n of_o holiness_n righteousness_n wisdom_n or_o the_o like_a for_o you_o say_v and_o i_o grant_v that_o the_o man_n and_o woman_n be_v both_o alike_o in_o that_o but_o you_o see_v they_o be_v not_o both_o alike_o in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n for_o adam_n be_v make_v in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n and_o eve_n be_v not_o which_o be_v already_o prove_v thus_o you_o see_v the_o image_n of_o god_n be_v take_v for_o the_o image_n of_o his_o person_n or_o visibility_n in_o the_o first_o sense_n second_o the_o image_n of_o god_n be_v
