of_o great_a moment_n to_o the_o present_a case_n 1._o because_o our_o saviour_n give_v this_o as_o a_o sanction_n of_o his_o own_o above_o and_o beyond_o the_o sentiment_n of_o the_o jew_n who_o be_v

of_o david_n his_o type_n the_o zeal_n of_o thy_o house_n have_v ●aten_v i_o up_o the_o last_o time_n that_o of_o the_o prophet_n esay_n my_o house_n shall_v be_v call_v the_o house_n of_o prayer_n

they_o may_v seem_v to_o have_v live_v and_o die_v together_o 3._o because_o this_o divine_a zeal_n of_o our_o lord_n terminate_v in_o a_o temple_n who_o holiness_n and_o use_n be_v much_o prostrate_v
