That justification is not by the law, but by faith, 2.

but_o the_o jew_n yet_o who_o great_a legallist_n than_o they_o they_o at_o lystra_n that_o will_v have_v worship_v paul_n and_o barnabus_fw-la for_o god_n to_o day_n be_v by_o to_o morrow_n

say_v the_o king_n think_v fit_a to_o wait_v a_o while_n which_o he_o in_o the_o 33._o ver_fw-la call_v wait_v on_o the_o lord_n and_o he_o wait_v with_o some_o sign_n of_o humiliation_n for_o it_o

help_v my_o lord_n o_o king_n and_o he_o say_v if_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o help_v thou_o whence_o shall_v i_o help_v thou_o hitherto_o all_o thing_n look_v pretty_a well_o but_o alas_o this_o be_v all_o but_o a_o external_a religiousness_n a_o external_a humiliation_n like_o that_o of_o wicked_a ahab_n see_v thou_o ahab_n humble_v himself_o and_o therefore_o this_o king_n be_v force_v patience_n have_v a_o end_n and_o he_o break_v out_o into_o the_o high_a impatience_n against_o god_n and_o where_o have_v it_o its_o chief_a vent_n why_o in_o persecute_v the_o prophet_n elisha_n

all_o legal_a worshipper_n have_v at_o the_o bottom_n of_o their_o heart_n a_o deep_a hatred_n against_o god_n and_o his_o people_n in_o the_o last_o place_n there_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o
