as_o well_o as_o a_o actual_a breach_n in_o our_o public_a person_n 1_o john_n 3._o 4._o again_o they_o be_v no_o other_o sin_n then_o those_o against_o that_o law_n give_v on_o sinai_n for_o the_o which_o those_o sin_n before_o mention_v be_v punish_v therefore_o the_o law_n give_v before_o by_o the_o lord_n to_o adam_n and_o his_o posterity_n be_v the_o same_o with_o that_o afterward_o give_v on_o mount_n sinai_n again_o the_o condition_n of_o that_o on_o sinai_n and_o of_o that_o in_o the_o garden_n be_v all_o one_o the_o one_o say_v do_v this_o and_o live_v the_o other_o say_v the_o

the_o apostle_n speak_v but_o of_o two_o covenant_n to_o wit_n grace_n and_o work_n under_o which_o two_o covenant_n all_o be_v some_o under_o one_o and_o some_o under_o the_o other_o now_o this_o to_o adam_n be_v one_o therefore_o that_o on_o sinai_n be_v one_o and_o all_o one_o with_o this_o and_o that_o this_o be_v a_o truth_n i_o say_v i_o know_v that_o the_o sin_n against_o that_o on_o sinai_n be_v punish_v by_o god_n for_o the_o breach_n thereof_o before_o it_o be_v give_v there_o so_o it_o do_v plain_o appear_v to_o be_v a_o truth_n for_o it_o will_v be_v unrighteous_a with_o god_n for_o to_o punish_v for_o that_o law_n that_o be_v not_o break_v therefore_o it_o be_v all_o one_o with_o that_o on_o sinai_n now_o the_o law_n give_v on_o sinai_n be_v for_o the_o more_o clear_a discovery_n of_o those_o sin_n that_o be_v before_o commit_v against_o it_o for_o though_o the_o very_a substance_n of_o the_o ten_o commandment_n be_v give_v in_o the_o garden_n before_o

more_o clear_o be_v make_v manifest_a and_o appear_v rom._n 5._o 20._o again_o we_o have_v a_o notable_a resemblance_n for_o this_o at_o sinai_n even_o in_o give_v the_o law_n for_o first_o the_o law_n be_v give_v twice_o on_o sinai_n to_o signify_v that_o indeed_o the_o substance_n of_o it_o be_v give_v before_o and_o second_o the_o first_o table_n that_o be_v give_v on_o sinai_n be_v break_v at_o the_o foot_n of_o the_o mount_n and_o the_o other_o be_v preserve_v whole_a to_o signify_v that_o though_o it_o be_v the_o true_a law_n that_o be_v give_v before_o with_o that_o give_v on_o

somewhat_o deface_v and_o disfigure_v but_o if_o any_o object_n and_o say_v though_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o one_o be_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o other_o and_o so_o in_o that_o they_o do_v agree_v yet_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o the_o same_o be_v therefore_o the_o same_o covenant_n of_o work_n with_o the_o other_o answ._n that_o which_o be_v give_v to_o adam_n in_o paradise_n you_o will_v grant_v be_v the_o covenant_n of_o work_n for_o it_o run_v thus_o do_v thus_o and_o live_v do_v it_o not_o and_o die_v nay_o thou_o shall_v sure_o die_v now_o there_o be_v but_o one_o covenant_n of_o work_n if_o therefore_o i_o prove_v that_o that_o which_o be_v deliver_v on_o mount_n sinai_n be_v the_o covenant_n of_o work_n than_o all_o will_v be_v put_v out_o of_o doubt_n now_o that_o this_o be_v so_o it_o be_v evident_a first_o consider_v the_o two_o covenant_n be_v thus_o call_v in_o scripture_n the_o one_o the_o administration_n of_o death_n and_o the_o other_o the_o

be_v the_o covenant_n of_o work_n 2_o cor._n 3._o for_o if_o say_v he_o the_o ministration_n of_o death_n write_a and_o engrave_v in_o stone_n be_v glorious_a etc._n etc._n second_o the_o apostle_n
