be_v impute_v unto_o he_o for_o righteousness_n it_o be_v impossible_a that_o he_o shall_v be_v justify_v by_o the_o offer_n of_o his_o son_n isaac_n which_o be_v as_o i_o say_v before_o thirty_o year_n after_o that_o that_o the_o apostle_n go_v about_o here_o be_v only_o to_o show_v that_o the_o faith_n which_o abraham_n be_v justify_v by_o be_v no_o idle_a or_o dead_a faith_n but_o such_o a_o faith_n as_o make_v he_o obedient_a unto_o god_n as_o it_o be_v plain_o set_v forth_o to_o the_o hebrew_n 11._o therefore_o if_o the_o circumstance_n be_v consider_v there_o be_v no_o repugnance_n
