cleanse_v from_o their_o sin_n by_o faith_n and_o repentance_n also_o in_o this_o their_o sanctification_n they_o may_v be_v understand_v to_o have_v commend_v themselves_o and_o the_o cause_n to_o god_n with_o prayer_n that_o god_n will_v find_v out_o for_o they_o the_o troubler_n of_o israel_n that_o he_o will_v bless_v and_o direct_v the_o lot_n for_o that_o end_n and_o here_o be_v a_o good_a

before_o they_o pass_v their_o verdict_n upon_o other_o otherwise_o without_o this_o sanctification_n and_o due_a preparation_n for_o man_n to_o rush_v upon_o the_o censure_a and_o punish_v of_o other_o sin_n be_v the_o way_n to_o bring_v god_n displeasure_n upon_o themselves_o we_o have_v a_o famous_a example_n hereof_o in_o the_o israelite_n themselves_o when_o they_o be_v to_o take_v

fact_n beyond_o measure_n for_o the_o beniamite_n not_o only_o not_o punish_v of_o it_o but_o countenance_v and_o defend_v it_o that_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o tribe_n all_o combine_v as_o one_o man_n to_o punish_v such_o a_o unheard_a of_o impiety_n and_o insolency_n even_o in_o their_o brethren_n the_o beniamite_n no_o doubt_n be_v both_o laudable_a with_o man_n and_o acceptable_a with_o god_n insomuch_o as_o they_o consult_v with_o god_n 20._o have_v his_o direction_n &_o approbation_n their_o consult_v with_o god_n be_v good_a and_o requisite_a and_o the_o only_a way_n to_o speed_v well_o
