iniquity_n not_o impute_v 12._o who_o shall_v dwell_v in_o thy_o holy_a mountain_n this_o be_v the_o second_o clause_n of_o the_o question_n and_o doubtless_o symbolical_a as_o in_o scripture_n it_o frequent_o be_v upon_o which_o now_o to_o insist_v will_v draw_v forth_o a_o too_o long_a discourse_n but_o brief_o we_o observe_v god_n have_v many_o mountain_n first_o horeb_n exod._n 3.2_o upon_o which_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o first_o patriarch_n give_v up_o its_o sceptre_n to_o the_o tabernacle_n as_o after_o upon_o mount_n calvarie_n the_o tabernacle_n resign_v to_o the_o gospel_n but_o horeb_n be_v not_o that_o we_o seek_v because_o in_o allegory_n it_o answer_v for_o sinai_n and_o it_o be_v one_o to_o hagar_n the_o bondwoman_n and_o gender_v unto_o bondage_n so_o also_o we_o find_v

at_o least_o most_o frequent_o mount_n zion_n come_v under_o lofty_a character_n into_o remembrance_n where_o i_o say_v the_o mountain_n in_o allegory_n refer_v to_o a_o sacred_a worship_n not_o stand_v so_o much_o in_o type_n and_o ceremony_n as_o in_o the_o more_o weighty_a and_o fundamental_a part_n of_o piety_n and_o therefore_o see_v it_o must_v refer_v to_o some_o know_a worship_n which_o be_v or_o have_v be_v and_o yet_o be_v not_o the_o then_o tabernacle_n it_o necessary_o point_v at_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o old_a patriarch_n no_o melchisedec_n abraham_n jacob_n job_n etc._n etc._n and_o beside_o it_o be_v manifest_a from_o scripture_n that_o in_o that_o age_n the_o father_n do_v worship_n upon_o mountain_n in_o faith_n reverence_n love_n and_o the_o rest_n consist_v more_o in_o contemplation_n upon_o the_o high_a attribute_n of_o god_n than_o ceremonial_a duty_n also_o without_o a_o law_n that_o of_o blood_n and_o murder_n gen._n 9.4_o except_v save_o
