there_o be_v no_o incongruity_n in_o the_o expression_n as_o ridiculous_a as_o the_o doctor_n represent_v it_o to_o say_v that_o god_n may_v resign_v his_o immediate_a government_n over_o a_o people_n as_o their_o political_a king_n this_o be_v do_v in_o fact_n upon_o the_o cease_n of_o the_o theocracy_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o judah_n now_o in_o the_o present_a case_n the_o text_n say_v express_o that_o god_n deliver_v they_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o moabite_n and_o aramite_n and_o what_o do_v that_o intimate_a but_o that_o god_n have_v so_o far_o part_v with_o his_o immediate_a government_n as_o their_o political_a king_n for_o if_o god_n be_v at_o that_o time_n their_o political_a king_n how_o come_v the_o israelite_n to_o be_v the_o subject_n of_o these_o king_n may_v they_o transferr_v their_o alleg._n from_o god_n too_o when_o he_o insist_v upon_o his_o right_n to_o govern_v they_o but_o if_o god_n appoint_v they_o for_o the_o punishment_n of_o their_o sin_n to_o be_v subject_n to_o those_o king_n and_o deliver_v they_o as_o such_o into_o their_o hand_n and_o the_o israelite_n know_v that_o he_o do_v so_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o god_n so_o far_o consent_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v their_o subject_n and_o though_o the_o doctor_n will_v not_o allow_v that_o the_o presume_a consent_n of_o the_o prince_n signify_v any_o thing_n i_o hope_v he_o will_v not_o think_v so_o of_o the_o express_a consent_n of_o god_n now_o the_o convocation_n plain_o assert_n that_o the_o israelite_n be_v the_o subject_n of_o these_o king_n and_o the_o doctor_n be_v argument_n proceed_v upon_o the_o supposition_n of_o it_o and_o the_o question_n be_v how_o they_o become_v so_o either_o god_n at_o that_o time_n be_v their_o political_a king_n or_o he_o be_v not_o if_o he_o be_v which_o way_n shall_v they_o become_v subyect_n of_o another_o prince_n i_o doubt_v for_o all_o his_o laugh_n it_o will_v puzzle_v the_o doctor_n to_o give_v another_o account_n of_o it_o if_o god_n be_v not_o their_o political_a king_n than_o those_o in_o who_o the_o right_a of_o the_o government_n be_v together_o with_o the_o people_n have_v submit_v and_o have_v thereby_o make_v the_o government_n of_o the_o aramite_n and_o moabite_n over_o they_o legal_a government_n but_o of_o this_o more_o present_o 2._o to_o consider_v what_o the_o doctor_n have_v find_v out_o to_o justify_v the_o submission_n of_o the_o israelite_n and_o their_o become_a subject_n to_o these_o thing_n and_o here_o we_o be_v get_v into_o a_o field_n of_o distinction_n and_o nothing_o at_o all_o to_o the_o purpose_n and_o the_o doctor_n will_v grant_v legal_a power_n may_v be_v understand_v in_o a_o large_a notion_n and_o that_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v legal_a which_o be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o nation_n and_o submission_n may_v make_v a_o legal_a king_n of_o he_o who_o according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n can_v be_v only_a king_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la and_o this_o he_o tell_v we_o be_v worth_a consider_v and_o then_o go_v on_o in_o a_o state_n of_o nature_n wherein_o we_o must_v suppose_v all_o man_n free_a from_o any_o government_n but_o that_o of_o parent_n and_o so_o may_v give_v up_o the_o government_n of_o themselves_o to_o who_o they_o please_v etc._n etc._n but_o what_o be_v this_o to_o the_o purpose_n be_v that_o the_o case_n of_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n who_o god_n himself_o have_v frame_v into_o a_o commonwealth_n and_o especial_o at_o such_o time_n when_o he_o be_v their_o political_a king_n but_o say_v he_o if_o we_o fall_v into_o a_o state_n of_o nature_n and_o liberty_n again_o 13._o p._n 13._o or_o something_o like_o it_o as_o in_o the_o case_n of_o a_o new_a prevail_a force_n when_o prince_n and_o people_n be_v conquer_v for_o then_o the_o government_n be_v at_o a_o end_n and_o they_o be_v as_o much_o at_o liberty_n to_o submit_v to_o a_o conquer_a prince_n as_o they_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o nature_n now_o this_o be_v perfect_o a_o new_a question_n and_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n to_o meddle_v with_o it_o but_o if_o the_o doctor_n be_v weary_a of_o his_o hypothesis_n as_o he_o have_v lay_v it_o and_o will_v quit_v it_o as_o not_o defensible_a and_o will_v fix_v the_o controversy_n upon_o this_o bottom_n he_o shall_v hear_v what_o i_o have_v to_o say_v to_o it_o but_o the_o doctor_n i_o suppose_v think_v it_o not_o much_o to_o the_o purpose_n have_v himself_o enlarge_v this_o point_n and_o with_o respect_n to_o private_a subject_n he_o say_v when_o upon_o a_o violent_a change_n of_o government_n they_o be_v as_o much_o under_o the_o force_n and_o power_n of_o a_o new_a prince_n or_o a_o new_a government_n as_o they_o can_v be_v under_o a_o conquer_a prince_n force_n will_v justify_v submission_n and_o then_o it_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n from_o what_o quarter_n the_o force_n come_v and_o agreeable_a to_o this_o he_o say_v in_o matter_n of_o government_n it_o be_v a_o unalterable_a right_n of_o nature_n to_o submit_v to_o force_v 14._o 〈◊〉_d 14._o and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o he_o give_v as_o a_o reason_n to_o justify_v the_o submission_n of_o the_o israelite_n to_o the_o aramite_n and_o moabite_n for_o it_o follow_v all_o man_n will_v grant_v that_o no_o humane_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 government_n and_o polity_n which_o god_n himself_o prescribe_v to_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n which_o they_o be_v religious_o bind_v to_o observe_v by_o virtue_n of_o their_o covenant_n with_o god_n which_o certain_o be_v as_o sacred_a as_o any_o oath_n now_o those_o law_n do_v not_o admit_v of_o the_o authority_n and_o government_n of_o stranger_n but_o express_o forbid_v it_o that_o have_v they_o choose_v to_o be_v govern_v by_o any_o foreign_a prince_n they_o have_v great_o sin_v in_o it_o but_o this_o very_a law_n as_o sacred_a as_o it_o be_v give_v way_n to_o necessity_n and_o when_o they_o be_v conquer_v by_o the_o aramite_n or_o moabite_n or_o any_o other_o nation_n it_o be_v no_o fault_n to_o submit_v to_o they_o and_o if_o force_n will_v justify_v this_o in_o the_o israelite_n who_o have_v god_n for_o their_o king_n and_o be_v oblige_v by_o their_o covenant_n with_o he_o to_o accept_v of_o no_o foreign_a prince_n to_o govern_v they_o it_o be_v hard_a if_o it_o will_v not_o justify_v the_o subject_n of_o humane_a government_n most_o of_o which_o be_v at_o first_o found_v in_o mere_a force_n whatever_o their_o oath_n and_o obligation_n be_v to_o submit_v to_o a_o new_a and_o great_a force_n this_o be_v the_o doctor_n state_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o i_o shall_v consider_v it_o immediate_o for_o the_o doctor_n say_v this_o give_v a_o sufficient_a answer_n to_o what_o our_o author_n add_v in_o the_o place_n last_o quote_v 3._o postscript_n p._n 3._o that_o god_n be_v king_n of_o israel_n will_v be_v a_o argument_n

to_o the_o present_a purpose_n without_o run_v any_o further_o and_o i_o do_v assert_v that_o entail_v of_o the_o crown_n make_v by_o humane_a law_n do_v as_o much_o oblige_v the_o subject_n to_o own_o the_o authority_n of_o their_o rightful_a king_n by_o those_o law_n and_o to_o disow_v the_o authority_n of_o a_o usurper_n as_o the_o entail_v of_o god_n upon_o the_o posterity_n of_o david_n do_v oblige_v the_o subject_n of_o judah_n to_o own_o joash_n and_o to_o depose_v and_o slay_v athaliah_n and_o let_v we_o see_v what_o the_o dr_n have_v to_o say_v to_o it_o he_o reply_n 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 very_o well_o but_o i_o doubt_v they_o must_v oblige_v as_o much_o and_o in_o such_o case_n only_o as_o will_v fit_v the_o drs._n turn_n but_o yet_o say_v he_o we_o think_v divine_a political_a law_n much_o more_o sacred_a and_o universal_o obligatory_a than_o any_o mere_a humane_a law_n though_o make_v by_o man_n who_o have_v their_o authority_n of_o government_n and_o consequent_o of_o make_v law_n from_o god_n and_o i_o believe_v the_o author_n be_v the_o first_o man_n who_o have_v equal_v humane_a law_n with_o those_o law_n which_o be_v immediate_o give_v by_o god_n now_o i_o think_v the_o dr._n have_v some_o fetch_n in_o put_v in_o these_o same_o in_o all_o case_n and_o to_o all_o intent_n and_o purpose_n but_o do_v i_o ever_o say_v that_o mere_a humane_a law_n be_v as_o sacred_a as_o divine_a law_n but_o as_o to_o their_o obligation_n the_o subject_n in_o other_o country_n be_v as_o much_o oblige_v to_o observe_v their_o political_a law_n as_o the_o people_n of_o judah_n be_v they_o though_o the_o one_o be_v make_v by_o god_n himself_o and_o the_o other_o by_o his_o authority_n and_o this_o for_o the_o reason_n that_o i_o give_v because_o all_o humane_a law_n that_o be_v just_o bound_v in_o conscience_n and_o need_v the_o dr._n be_v tell_v what_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o humane_a law_n bind_v in_o conscience_n which_o have_v a_o immediate_a respect_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o the_o formal_a reason_n that_o humane_a law_n oblige_v in_o conscience_n be_v not_o because_o they_o be_v mere_a humane_a law_n as_o the_o dr._n have_v a_o mind_n to_o phrase_n it_o but_o because_o it_o be_v the_o declare_a will_n of_o god_n they_o shall_v be_v obey_v and_o the_o obligation_n in_o conscience_n to_o humane_a law_n be_v resolve_v only_o into_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o i_o hope_v the_o obligation_n may_v be_v equal_a with_o respect_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n though_o the_o law_n themselves_o be_v not_o equal_a in_o all_o case_n and_o to_o all_o intent_n and_o purpose_n and_o i_o wonder_v where_o be_v the_o singularity_n of_o assert_v this_o as_o the_o dr._n out_o of_o extraordinary_a candour_n have_v a_o mind_n to_o insinuate_v but_o say_v he_o the_o dispute_n between_o divine_a and_o humane_a law_n and_o a_o divine_a and_o humane_a entail_v of_o the_o crown_n be_v of_o a_o very_a different_a nature_n though_o they_o be_v both_o the_o law_n of_o the_o country_n for_o which_o they_o be_v make_v i._n e._n though_o they_o be_v both_o law_n and_o though_o they_o both_o receive_v their_o bind_a power_n as_o they_o be_v law_n and_o though_o the_o difference_n the_o dr._n contend_v for_o be_v that_o the_o one_o be_v a_o law_n of_o god_n and_o the_o other_o be_v a_o law_n of_o man_n yet_o it_o seem_v the_o dispute_n about_o law_n will_v not_o serve_v the_o turn_n and_o therefore_o they_o must_v be_v consider_v not_o as_o law_n but_o as_o entail_v though_o i_o must_v confess_v i_o can_v see_v no_o difference_n in_o that_o for_o if_o they_o be_v entail_v they_o be_v law_n and_o they_o be_v law_n as_o they_o be_v entail_v and_o i_o do_v not_o very_o well_o see_v how_o their_o consideration_n can_v be_v sever_v or_o what_o need_n there_o be_v for_o it_o but_o for_o all_o that_o 43._o p._n 43._o the_o dr._n tell_v we_o it_o will_v easy_o appear_v if_o we_o compare_v god_n make_v king_n by_o a_o providential_a settlement_n of_o they_o

and_o which_o be_v a_o rule_n to_o we_o to_o providence_n which_o be_v no_o rule_n well!_o this_o i_o say_v and_o where_o be_v the_o fallacy_n now_o say_v he_o i_o will_v ask_v the_o author_n

to_o show_v the_o obligation_n of_o humane_a law_n that_o they_o bind_v in_o conscience_n and_o be_v a_o rule_n to_o we_o and_o which_o providence_n be_v not_o and_o therefore_o all_o the_o pain_n the_o dr._n take_v to_o prove_v that_o humane_a law_n be_v not_o divine_a law_n concern_v not_o i_o at_o all_o nor_o the_o question_n he_o dispute_v only_o against_o his_o own_o fancy_n and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v not_o trouble_v the_o reader_n with_o that_o but_o go_v on_o to_o the_o next_o well!_o say_v he_o but_o these_o law_n be_v our_o rule_n they_o be_v so_o when_o they_o be_v not_o overrule_v by_o a_o superior_a authority_n 44._o p._n 44._o but_o that_o they_o may_v be_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o god_n very_o true_a but_o be_v the_o act_n or_o permission_n of_o

what_o if_o providence_n lay_v new_a obligation_n on_o we_o and_o discharge_v the_o old_a one_o the_o obligation_n and_o the_o discharge_n too_o be_v to_o be_v take_v from_o the_o rule_n and_o not_o

and_o transfer_v kingdom_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
