know_v unto_o we_o first_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o judgement_n here_o speak_v of_o i_o answer_v by_o judgement_n express_v by_o the_o hebrew_n mishpat_o we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o righteous_a sentence_n and_o holy_a decree_n of_o god_n pass_v upon_o man_n or_o mankind_n in_o order_n to_o reward_n or_o punishment_n and_o also_o the_o execution_n that_o be_v make_v upon_o the_o pass_n of_o these_o sentence_n so_o the_o jewish_a master_n tell_v we_o it_o be_v to_o judge_v according_a to_o truth_n and_o execute_v also_o according_a to_o that_o judgement_n whether_o it_o be_v in_o matter_n of_o punishment_n or_o reward_n and_o then_o if_o you_o will_v know_v the_o particular_a sense_n wherein_o the_o word_n be_v take_v here_o there_o be_v no_o question_n but_o it_o refer_v to_o the_o worst_a sense_n that_o be_v to_o say_v a_o act_n of_o judgement_n the_o execution_n of_o it_o as_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o word_n show_v the_o wicked_a be_v snare_v in_o the_o work_n of_o their_o own_o hand_n look_v in_o what_o sense_n the_o judgement_n of_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v execute_v in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o text_n in_o that_o sense_n it_o be_v take_v in_o the_o former_a part_n but_o the_o judgement_n execute_v be_v speak_v in_o respect_n of_o punishment_n of_o offender_n therefore_o so_o be_v it_o to_o be_v take_v in_o the_o former_a part_n also_o second_o when_o may_v god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v know_v in_o the_o sense_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o word_n i_o answer_v when_o so_o much_o of_o his_o wisdom_n power_n justice_n righteousness_n holiness_n or_o any_o other_o of_o the_o divine_a attribute_n be_v discover_v and_o make_v know_v unto_o the_o son_n of_o man_n as_o that_o every_o man_n that_o will_v consider_v may_v indeed_o observe_v and_o take_v notice_n of_o that_o he_o that_o have_v a_o ear_n may_v hear_v and_o he_o that_o have_v a_o eye_n may_v see_v if_o he_o please_v we_o be_v not_o here_o to_o think_v that_o god_n speak_v of_o the_o metaphysical_a or_o phylosophical_a knowledge_n of_o his_o essence_n no_o that_o be_v too_o high_a for_o we_o but_o he_o speak_v of_o moral_a knowledge_n of_o his_o attribute_n or_o indeed_o rather_o of_o a_o sober_a and_o pious_a and_o humble_a acknowledgement_n of_o they_o so_o that_o then_o god_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v know_v when_o his_o wisdom_n power_n goodness_n be_v acknowledge_v in_o these_o providence_n and_o dispensation_n that_o he_o exercise_v and_o act_n among_o the_o son_n of_o men._n the_o holy_a scripture_n they_o be_v not_o general_o at_o least_o and_o in_o the_o large_a extent_n of_o they_o design_v to_o instruct_v philosopher_n and_o to_o discipline_n and_o teach_v man_n of_o great_a and_o raise_v part_n and_o understanding_n only_o but_o they_o be_v as_o well_o aim_v to_o enlighten_v to_o inform_v to_o teach_v and_o instruct_v man_n of_o low_a and_o weak_a capacity_n as_o the_o sun_n do_v not_o only_o shine_v upon_o the_o cedar_n of_o lebanon_n upon_o the_o tall_a and_o brave_a plant_n of_o the_o wood_n the_o tree_n of_o the_o forest_n but_o also_o upon_o the_o low_a bramble_n and_o bush_n in_o like_a manner_n god_n who_o will_v have_v all_o to_o be_v save_v do_v not_o so_o cause_v the_o holy_a scripture_n to_o be_v draw_v pen_a or_o write_a that_o they_o shall_v only_o be_v understand_v by_o man_n of_o great_a part_n i_o

mean_a understanding_n and_o hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v when_o we_o find_v the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n speak_v of_o in_o scripture_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v philosophical_a notional_a metaphysical_a knowledge_n of_o his_o be_v and_o essence_n for_o this_o be_v above_o all_o capacity_n but_o we_o be_v to_o understand_v common_a and_o ordinary_a acknowledgement_n of_o those_o wonderful_a and_o glorious_a attribute_n of_o god_n shine_v in_o his_o providence_n make_v know_v in_o his_o work_n appear_v in_o all_o those_o exercise_n of_o that_o providence_n in_o the_o world_n and_o among_o mankind_n three_o how_o and_o by_o what_o mean_n do_v the_o judgement_n which_o god_n execute_v in_o the_o world_n make_v he_o know_v unto_o the_o son_n of_o men._n i_o answer_v first_o in_o the_o general_n that_o god_n judgement_n they_o be_v general_o suit_v and_o strange_o accommodate_v unto_o the_o time_n opportunity_n and_o also_o unto_o the_o nature_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v at_o such_o time_n upon_o the_o wheel_n or_o upon_o the_o anvil_n when_o those_o judgement_n be_v discover_v and_o be_v execute_v in_o the_o world_n the_o wisdom_n of_o divine_a providence_n it_o make_v itself_o know_v every_o where_n unto_o a_o see_n and_o consider_v eye_n and_o if_o we_o will_v but_o take_v notice_n of_o thing_n we_o may_v see_v the_o line_n of_o divine_a
