man_n which_o be_v mention_v and_o mean_v in_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o also_o in_o gen._n 2._o 2._o second_o that_o christ_n be_v therefore_o call_v the_o rest_n of_o god_n because_o god_n have_v in_o mercy_n ordain_v he_o to_o be_v the_o rest_n for_o mankind_n three_o that_o god_n can_v otherwise_o be_v say_v to_o rest_n in_o christ_n for_o our_o good_a but_o only_a because_o all_o faithful_a and_o holy_a man_n do_v set_v up_o their_o rest_n in_o christ_n four_o that_o the_o rest_n of_o god_n here_o mean_v consist_v only_o in_o the_o rest_n of_o man_n and_o that_o god_n call_v that_o his_o rest_n which_o indeed_o be_v primary_o and_o proper_o man_n rest_n the_o rest_n of_o god_n can_v be_v mean_v of_o any_o new_a rest_n in_o respect_n of_o himself_o only_o because_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o any_o increase_n or_o access_n can_v be_v add_v to_o infiniteness_n such_o as_o be_v the_o bless_a eternal_a and_o unspeakable_a rest_n of_o the_o godhead_n therefore_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v some_o other_o external_a respect_n in_o which_o god_n be_v say_v to_o rest_v otherwise_o than_o before_o and_o that_o sure_o be_v the_o rest_n which_o he_o have_v procure_v for_o man_n which_o god_n call_v his_o own_o rest_n the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v very_o often_o ascribe_v the_o passion_n or_o affection_n of_o man_n unto_o god_n as_o when_o god_n be_v say_v to_o repent_v to_o be_v angry_a to_o be_v grieve_v and_o vex_v and_o displease_v although_o we_o be_v sure_a that_o no_o such_o change_n can_v consist_v with_o the_o immutable_a godhead_n for_o the_o same_o scripture_n that_o say_v in_o one_o place_n it_o repent_v 29_o gen._n 6._o 6._o 1_o sam._n 15._o 29_o the_o lord_n in_o another_o place_n say_v the_o strength_n of_o israel_n will_v not_o lie_v nor_o repent_v therefore_o such_o speech_n be_v but_o anthropo-pathetical_a or_o after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n as_o a_o man_n pull_v down_o a_o house_n which_o himself_o build_v because_o he_o be_v angry_a or_o displease_v with_o it_o so_o god_n in_o justice_n destroy_v some_o creature_n which_o himself_o make_v yet_o god_n be_v not_o angry_a but_o because_o he_o do_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o man_n in_o anger_n do_v therefore_o he_o be_v say_v to_o be_v angry_a just_o so_o the_o rest_n which_o be_v only_o in_o man_n be_v here_o for_o the_o like_a reason_n call_v god_n rest_v
