of_o their_o true_a sense_n and_o mean_v i_o will_v not_o multiply_v citation_n one_o or_o two_o be_v enough_o and_o indeed_o luther_n and_o calvin_n be_v a_o army_n alone_o luther_n tell_v we_o op_n that_o all_o justiciaries_n esteem_v christ_n to_o be_v a_o new_a legislator_n and_o judge_v the_o gospel_n to_o be_v no_o other_o than_o a_o book_n which_o contain_v new_a law_n concern_v work_n as_o the_o turk_n dream_n about_o their_o alcoran_n but_o there_o be_v law_n enough_o in_o moses_n the_o gospel_n therefore_o be_v a_o preach_v concern_v christ_n that_o he_o forgive_v sin_n gives_z grace_n justify_v and_o save_v sinner_n but_o now_o that_o precept_n be_v find_v in_o the_o gospel_n those_o be_v not_o the_o gospel_n but_o exposition_n of_o the_o law_n and_o appendix_n of_o the_o gospel_n now_o any_o one_o will_v think_v that_o this_o luther_n will_v never_o call_v the_o gospel_n a_o law_n and_o yet_o so_o he_o do_v expound_v a_o little_a after_o the_o 19_o verse_n and_o be_v before_o cite_v by_o i_o and_o in_o what_o sense_n he_o mean_v the_o gospel_n to_o have_v that_o name_n he_o inform_v we_o plain_o in_o his_o comment_n on_o isa_n 2._o 3._o out_o of_o zion_n shall_v

the_o gospel_n for_o he_o here_o promise_v a_o new_a word_n for_o unless_o he_o signify_v a_o new_a doctrine_n what_o need_n be_v there_o at_o length_n to_o promise_v a_o law_n which_o have_v be_v make_v so_o many_o year_n before_o and_o he_o manifest_o signify_v the_o difference_n in_o that_o he_o add_v out_o of_o zion_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v i_o first_o give_v a_o law_n in_o sinai_n i_o will_v now_o give_v another_o in_o mount_n zion_n which_o shall_v not_o be_v a_o doctrine_n of_o work_n but_o of_o faith_n not_o of_o law_n but_o of_o grace_n not_o accuse_v but_o bestow_v pardon_n of_o sin_n etc._n etc._n calvin_n also_o agree_v with_o luther_n in_o this_o and_o indeed_o those_o two_o holy_a man_n though_o they_o differ_v in_o some_o thing_n yet_o they_o very_o well_o accord_v in_o the_o main_a substance_n of_o the_o gospel_n they_o believe_v on_o the_o same_o jesus_n and_o love_v the_o truth_n of_o his_o grace_n calvin_n likewise_o say_v that_o when_o the_o gospel_n be_v call_v law_n a_o doctrine_n of_o salvation_n be_v only_o mean_v by_o it_o for_o say_v he_o explain_v isa_n 2._o 3._o op_n since_o the_o rule_n of_o holiness_n be_v to_o be_v fetch_v

of_o a_o altar_n now_o as_o it_o will_v be_v absurd_a to_o infer_v that_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n be_v levitical_a priest_n because_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v partaker_n with_o the_o altar_n and_o live_v by_o the_o gospel_n or_o to_o endeavour_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o old_a jewish_a worship_n be_v yet_o stand_v and_o that_o sacrifice_n shall_v be_v offer_v under_o the_o new_a testament_n because_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o a_o altar_n too_o to_o which_o believer_n come_v and_o of_o which_o they_o have_v right_a to_o eat_v heb._n 13._o 10._o
