the_o live_a god_n as_o they_o do_v and_o the_o sense_n of_o these_o word_n as_o they_o be_v thus_o speak_v by_o david_n be_v this_o and_o the_o reproach_n of_o they_o which_o reproach_v thou_o fall_v on_o i_o to_o the_o wound_n of_o my_o soul_n to_o think_v that_o thou_o shall_v be_v so_o reproach_v that_o be_v and_o i_o be_v grieve_v at_o the_o heart_n to_o hear_v man_n reproach_v thou_o as_o they_o do_v and_o take_v it_o as_o grievous_o as_o if_o they_o have_v reproach_v i_o myself_o but_o in_o the_o second_o and_o sublime_a sense_n they_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v as_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n and_o bear_v the_o same_o sense_n as_o we_o at_o the_o first_o give_v of_o they_o for_o note_v that_o david_n be_v a_o type_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o suffering_n of_o christ_n

sense_n and_o many_o word_n which_o be_v speak_v by_o david_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v as_o speak_v by_o christ_n also_o but_o yet_o not_o always_o in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o sense_n the_o

in_o my_o preface_n to_o my_o exposition_n on_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n the_o reproach_n of_o they_o which_o reproach_v thou_o fall_v on_o i_o it_o have_v be_v more_o congruous_a to_o the_o context_n here_o for_o the_o apostle_n to_o have_v say_v the_o reproach_n of_o they_o that_o reproach_v god_n fall_v on_o he_o but_o as_o i_o have_v observe_v before_o the_o apostle_n when_o he_o quote_v any_o authority_n out_o of_o the_o psalm_n or_o the_o prophet_n or_o any_o other_o part_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n he_o quote_v it_o for_o the_o most_o part_n as_o it_o lie_v there_o and_o leave_v his_o reader_n to_o apply_v it_o here_o some_o ask_v the_o question_n here_o why_o the_o apostle_n bring_v this_o testimony_n here_o when_o he_o have_v more_o plain_a testimony_n for_o his_o purpose_n as_o that_o of_o isaiah_n isa_n 53.4_o he_o that_o have_v bear_v our_o grief_n and_o carry_v our_o sorrow_n etc._n etc._n for_o answer_v to_o this_o i_o conceive_v that_o the_o apostle_n make_v choice_n of_o this_o testimony_n here_o because_o it_o mention_v reproach_n express_o and_o reproach_n be_v the_o chief_a fault_n which_o he_o have_v to_o complain_v of_o in_o the_o roman_n which_o if_o they_o

which_o be_v the_o wage_n of_o sin_n and_o which_o never_o fall_v upon_o any_o one_o but_o for_o sin_n reign_v over_o all_o man_n from_o the_o day_n of_o adam_n to_o the_o day_n of_o moses_n though_o

the_o judgement_n of_o god_n pass_v upon_o the_o child_n of_o adam_n to_o their_o condemnation_n by_o reason_n of_o that_o one_o sin_n or_o offence_n which_o adam_n derive_v to_o they_o but_o the_o

to_o their_o justification_n 17._o for_o if_o by_o one_o man_n offence_n death_n reign_v by_o one_o much_o more_o they_o which_o receive_v abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o of_o the_o gift_n of_o

be_v the_o cause_n of_o that_o sin_n or_o offence_n and_o who_o derive_v it_o to_o his_o child_n over_o all_o the_o child_n of_o adam_n after_o a_o far_o more_o bountiful_a and_o glorious_a manner_n
