which_o can_v lie_v than_o i_o be_o able_a to_o declare_v when_o i_o have_v fall_v to_o the_o explication_n and_o enlargement_n of_o if_o yet_o the_o very_a first_o word_n in_o the_o 11_o and_o 12_o verse_n speak_v as_o much_o to_o the_o truth_n contain_v in_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o sermon_n of_o ezekiel_n as_o that_o it_o be_v not_o lay_v before_o the_o people_n neither_o leave_v unto_o they_o in_o any_o confuse_a way_n which_o be_v not_o plain_a but_o the_o prophet_n get_v a_o commission_n to_o show_v they_o plain_o what_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v to_o they_o this_o will_v more_o clear_o appear_v if_o you_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o former_a part_n of_o the_o chapter_n wherein_o these_o thing_n be_v deliver_v plain_o to_o the_o people_n by_o a_o similitude_n the_o prophet_n have_v show_v to_o his_o hearer_n the_o same_o thing_n that_o he_o come_v to_o speak_v plain_o of_o unto_o they_o so_o that_o any_o man_n may_v have_v think_v this_o with_o himself_o what_o need_v so_o plain_o preach_v and_o application_n will_v not_o any_o man_n that_o hear_v the_o word_n take_v they_o up_o without_o any_o application_n you_o find_v the_o lord_n in_o his_o commission_n to_o ezekiel_n after_o he_o point_v out_o the_o similitude_n of_o two_o eagle_n take_v away_o the_o branch_n he_o tell_v now_o say_v he_o go_v to_o the_o city_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o say_v do_v you_o understand_v these_o thing_n that_o god_n will_v avenge_v his_o break_a covenant_n against_o the_o king_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o if_o they_o understand_v not_o these_o thing_n go_v and_o make_v they_o plain_a to_o they_o and_o apply_v it_o to_o they_o spare_v neither_o king_n nor_o prince_n but_o tell_v they_o this_o be_v my_o message_n thou_o have_v break_v my_o covenant_n therefore_o by_o this_o message_n which_o i_o send_v to_o you_o the_o plague_n and_o the_o vengeance_n of_o god_n shall_v come_v upon_o you_o as_o i_o live_v say_v the_o lord_n and_o lest_o any_o of_o you_o who_o sometime_o have_v hear_v we_o press_v the_o oath_n of_o the_o covenant_n in_o these_o land_n shall_v now_o a-days_o think_v it_o alterable_a and_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o thing_n that_o may_v be_v dispense_v with_o therefore_o we_o be_v through_o god_n strength_n from_o scripture_n to_o make_v out_o the_o indissolvable_a tie_n of_o the_o covenant_n and_o that_o we_o bear_v not_o upon_o the_o air_n in_o speak_v to_o that_o purpose_n according_a to_o the_o faithfulness_n of_o the_o prophet_n commission_n by_o the_o lord_n we_o intend_v to_o follow_v this_o rule_n as_o we_o shall_v be_v answerable_a to_o our_o lord_n and_o master_n and_o to_o be_v free_a of_o your_o blood_n who_o soul_n be_v commit_v to_o our_o charge_n to_o lay_v it_o before_o you_o and_o if_o you_o sin_n against_o the_o lord_n than_o your_o blood_n will_v be_v upon_o your_o own_o head_n this_o we_o intend_v not_o to_o speak_v in_o general_n but_o in_o particular_a and_o if_o any_o man_n will_v justle_v himself_o against_o the_o lord_n than_o he_o will_v break_v himself_o for_o ever_o and_o for_o make_v the_o word_n more_o clear_a consider_v that_o the_o king_n of_o babylon_n as_o you_o read_v 2_o king_n 24.17_o do_v change_n mattaniah_n name_n to_o zedekiah_n and_o make_v he_o king_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o afterward_o zedekiah_n enter_v into_o covenant_n with_o the_o king_n of_o babylon_n that_o he_o shall_v abide_v tributary_n to_o he_o and_o for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o it_o he_o put_v the_o king_n zedekiah_n to_o swear_v by_o the_o lord_n but_o after_o he_o have_v send_v he_o home_o to_o jerusalem_n zedekiah_n upon_o some_o suppose_a advantage_n which_o he_o see_v not_o at_o that_o time_n do_v break_v his_o covenant_n with_o the_o king_n of_o babylon_n therefore_o the_o lord_n send_v the_o prophet_n to_o he_o and_o say_v since_o thou_o have_v break_v covenant_n with_o the_o king_n of_o babylon_n and_o have_v not_o keep_v it_o as_o i_o live_v say_v the_o lord_n thou_o shall_v not_o prosper_v yea_o the_o lord_n notice_v and_o own_v it_o so_o much_o that_o he_o make_v the_o covenant_n swear_v to_o the_o king_n of_o babylon_n his_o covenant_n and_o therefore_o say_v in_o that_o verse_n as_o i_o live_v my_o oath_n which_o he_o have_v despise_v and_o my_o covenant_n etc._n etc._n this_o be_v the_o history_n and_o we_o have_v it_o clear_o set_v down_o in_o the_o prophet_n commission_n which_o he_o must_v not_o dare_v to_o sit_v but_o faithful_o do_v deliver_v the_o same_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o 33._o chap._n of_o this_o prophecy_n ver._n 7_o 8._o wherein_o the_o
