a_o unalterable_a right_n of_o nature_n to_o submit_v to_o force_v all_o man_n will_v grant_v that_o no_o human_a law_n and_o constitution_n be_v so_o sacred_a as_o the_o positive_a law_n of_o god_n

that_o be_v about_o a_o divine_a entail_v be_v against_o he_o it_o be_v true_a god_n do_v entail_v the_o kingdom_n of_o judah_n on_o the_o family_n of_o david_n and_o for_o that_o reason_n they_o

in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o israel_n to_o nominate_v their_o king_n and_o entail_v the_o crown_n when_o he_o please_v that_o therefore_o the_o subject_n of_o those_o kingdom_n may_v not_o submit_v to_o any_o other_o king_n who_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n place_v in_o the_o throne_n without_o such_o a_o divine_a nomination_n and_o entail_v for_o it_o appear_v from_o what_o i_o have_v already_o discourse_v that_o they_o both_o actual_o do_v and_o lawful_o may_v submit_v to_o such_o providential_a king_n when_o either_o there_o be_v no_o king_n by_o god_n nomination_n or_o entail_v or_o no_o such_o king_n be_v know_v but_o the_o use_n of_o the_o distinction_n be_v to_o show_v that_o in_o such_o theocratical_a kingdom_n where_o god_n challenge_v a_o peculiar_a right_n to_o make_v king_n by_o his_o express_a nomination_n or_o entail_v though_o god_n may_v see_v fit_a sometime_o to_o set_v a_o providential_a king_n upon_o the_o throne_n yet_o whenever_o he_o nominate_v a_o new_a king_n or_o discover_v the_o right_a heir_n to_o who_o the_o crown_n belong_v by_o a_o divine_a entail_v the_o reign_n of_o such_o providential_a king_n be_v at_o a_o end_n and_o the_o subject_n may_v and_o aught_o to_o depose_v or_o kill_v they_o and_o own_o the_o king_n of_o god_n nomination_n so_o that_o if_o he_o will_v prove_v any_o thing_n from_o my_o distinction_n with_o reference_n to_o other_o entail_a kingdom_n he_o must_v show_v that_o my_o distinction_n prove_v that_o in_o such_o kingdom_n where_o god_n make_v king_n only_o by_o his_o providence_n a_o humane_a entail_v of_o the_o crown_n will_v justify_v subject_n in_o depose_v and_o murder_v a_o new_a king_n who_o be_v place_v and_o settle_v in_o the_o throne_n by_o providence_n while_o the_o legal_a king_n or_o legal_a heir_n be_v

hear_v his_o reason_n for_o say_v he_o god_n entail_v the_o crown_n of_o judah_n be_v the_o law_n of_o that_o kingdom_n in_o that_o respect_n and_o the_o people_n of_o other_o kingdom_n be_v as_o

be_v own_o principle_n these_o law_n be_v make_v by_o god_n authority_n so_o that_o the_o doctor_n mistake_v the_o question_n we_o do_v not_o oppose_v humane_a law_n to_o god_n authority_n but_o we_o oppose_v law_n which_o be_v make_v by_o god_n authority_n and_o which_o be_v rule_n to_o we_o to_o providence_n which_o be_v no_o rule_n when_o god_n entail_v the_o crown_n upon_o david_n posterity_n they_o have_v then_o a_o legal_a right_n to_o it_o and_o so_o have_v every_o family_n in_o other_o kingdom_n upon_o which_o a_o entail_v be_v make_v by_o the_o respective_a law_n of_o the_o country_n but_o what_o will_v our_o author_n prove_v from_o this_o that_o in_o every_o hereditary_a kingdom_n the_o legal_a heir_n have_v a_o legal_a right_n to_o the_o crown_n as_o well_o as_o in_o judah_n and_o do_v i_o ever_o deny_v it_o or_o that_o the_o stand_a law_n of_o every_o country_n be_v the_o rule_n for_o subject_n in_o set_v up_o king_n when_o it_o be_v their_o own_o free_a act_n and_o

to_o the_o crown_n their_o king_n but_o no_o man_n ever_o deny_v but_o that_o in_o make_v king_n subject_n be_v bind_v by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n when_o it_o be_v their_o own_o free_a and_o voluntary_a act._n i_o be_o sure_a my_o hypothesis_n be_v not_o concern_v in_o this_o question_n and_o therefore_o be_v it_o how_o it_o will_v it_o can_v prove_v nothing_o against_o i_o or_o will_v he_o prove_v that_o when_o a_o entail_v be_v settle_v either_o by_o divine_a or_o humane_a law_n god_n never_o interpose_v by_o his_o providence_n to_o set_v up_o a_o king_n who_o have_v not_o this_o

have_v no_o legal_a right_n by_o a_o divine_a nomination_n or_o entail_v and_o be_v yet_o never_o blame_v for_o it_o or_o will_v he_o prove_v that_o a_o human_a entail_v of_o the_o crown_n do_v as_o

without_o a_o legal_a right_n to_o set_v the_o legal_a heir_n on_o his_o throne_n again_o as_o jehoiada_n be_v by_o virtue_n of_o the_o divine_a entail_v to_o anoint_v joash_n and_o slay_v athaliah_n this_o be_v the_o single_a point_n he_o ought_v to_o prove_v but_o i_o do_v not_o see_v that_o he_o offer_v any_o thing_n like_o a_o proof_n of_o it_o the_o sum_n of_o his_o argument_n be_v this_o that_o a_o human_a entail_v of_o the_o crown_n make_v by_o the_o law_n of_o any_o country_n do_v in_o all_o case_n and_o to_o all_o intent_n and_o purpose_n as_o much_o oblige_v subject_n as_o a_o

of_o judah_n be_v they_o the_o dispute_n in_o general_n about_o the_o authority_n and_o obligation_n of_o humane_a law_n be_v very_o impertinent_a to_o this_o purpose_n for_o no_o man_n deny_v it_o

and_o i_o desire_v to_o know_v why_o the_o providence_n of_o a_o entail_v be_v more_o sacred_a and_o obligatory_a than_o any_o other_o act_n of_o providence_n which_o give_v a_o settle_a possession_n of_o the_o throne_n what_o follow_v be_v pretty_a and_o nothing_o more_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n be_v divide_v among_o the_o twelve_o tribe_n by_o god_n express_a command_n and_o this_o answer_n to_o god_n entail_v of_o the_o crown_n on_o david_n '_o be_v family_n the_o possession_n in_o all_o other_o country_n be_v only_o by_o providence_n and_o this_o answer_n to_o a_o humane_a right_n and_o title_n to_o the_o crown_n well!_o there_o be_v something_o of_o likeness_n between_o they_o 11._o and_o what_o then_o and_o therefore_o according_a to_o the_o doctor_n be_v way_n of_o reason_v every_o man_n who_o wrongful_o possess_v himself_o of_o another_o man_n estate_n in_o that_o land_n canaan_n must_v be_v make_v to_o restore_v it_o for_o god_n have_v express_o give_v it_o to_o the_o

and_o it_o be_v his_o evident_a decree_n and_o counsel_n that_o he_o shall_v have_v it_o now_o the_o fundamental_a mistake_n which_o run_v through_o all_o these_o kind_n of_o argument_n be_v this_o that_o they_o make_v the_o event_n of_o providence_n in_o private_a injury_n theft_n robbery_n encroachment_n of_o one_o subject_a on_o another_o subject_n right_n to_o be_v the_o very_a same_o with_o god_n disposal_n of_o kingdom_n and_o to_o have_v the_o same_o effect_n whereas_o all_o private_a injury_n be_v reserve_v by_o god_n himself_o to_o the_o correction_n and_o redress_n of_o public_a government_n and_o humane_a court_n of_o justice_n and_o therefore_o his_o providence_n have_v no_o effect_n at_o all_o on_o such_o personal_a right_n but_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o the_o thing_n prove_v that_o such_o dispute_n which_o be_v too_o big_a for_o a_o legal_a decision_n or_o any_o humane_a court_n for_o the_o decision_n of_o which_o god_n have_v erect_v no_o universal_a tribunal_n on_o earth_n he_o have_v reserve_v to_o his_o own_o judgement_n such_o as_o the_o correction_n of_o sovereign_a prince_n and_o the_o transfer_v kingdom_n and_o empire_n and_o here_o the_o final_a determination_n of_o providence_n in_o settle_v prince_n on_o their_o throne_n draw_v the_o allegiance_n and_o submission_n of_o subject_n after_o it_o and_o in_o such_o case_n god_n do_v not_o confine_v himself_o to_o determine_v on_o the_o side_n of_o humane_a right_n but_o act_n with_o a_o sovereign_a authority_n and_o give_v the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n to_o who_o he_o please_v as_o he_o can_v best_o serve_v the_o wise_a and_o many_o time_n the_o unsearchable_a design_n of_o his_o providence_n by_o it_o which_o show_v how_o much_o our_o author_n be_v out_o in_o apply_v what_o i_o say_v of_o god_n make_v king_n to_o god_n disposal_n of_o private_a estate_n it_o be_v to_o say_v that_o god_n as_o well_o as_o man_n be_v confine_v to_o humane_a law_n in_o make_v king_n i_o say_v in_o dispose_v of_o estate_n say_v our_o author_n as_o if_o dispose_v of_o estate_n and_o make_v king_n be_v the_o very_a same_o thing_n whereas_o god_n have_v erect_v humane_a judicature_n

of_o our_o estate_n because_o subject_n must_v not_o pull_v down_o a_o prince_n who_o be_v settle_v in_o the_o throne_n without_o a_o legal_a right_n the_o poet_n will_v have_v teach_v he_o the_o
