that_o which_o he_o promise_v as_o he_o that_o never_o cease_v to_o be_v true_a and_o just_a of_o his_o word_n and_o where_o as_o be_v the_o certain_a firm_a &_o infallible_a promise_n of_o god_n there_o our_o faith_n ought_v in_o no_o wise_a to_o waver_v or_o doubt_v let_v these_o thing_n therefore_o he_o take_v in_o stead_n of_o the_o eight_o argument_n but_o now_o again_o the_o apostle_n stay_v somewhat_o at_o this_o ix_o that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n testify_v that_o the_o promise_n belong_v not_o only_o unto_o abraham_n but_o also_o unto_o a_o his_o seed_n in_o which_o

17._o i_o have_v appoint_v thou_o to_o be_v the_o father_n of_o many_o nation_n wherefore_o hereupon_o also_o he_o produce_v a_o other_o argument_n which_o be_v frame_v in_o this_o sort_n the_o promise_v spiritual_a benefit_n shall_v redound_v also_o to_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n but_o the_o gentile_n be_v know_v to_o be_v the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n ergo_fw-la the_o promise_a benefit_n shall_v come_v in_o like_a manner_n to_o the_o gentile_n though_o destitute_a of_o the_o law_n and_o void_a of_o good_a work_n be_v this_o therefore_o the_o nine_o argument_n take_v of_o the_o proper_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n gentile_n or_o nation_n and_o it_o belong_v to_o the_o place_n of_o invention_n of_o which_o mention_n be_v make_v in_o the_o five_o observation_n x_o the_o

to_o impute_v it_o for_o righteousness_n xi_o last_o of_o all_o the_o holy_a apostle_n go_v about_o to_o bring_v his_o explanation_n to_o all_o end_n avouch_v that_o the_o same_o mean_a or_o way_n
