the_o one_o be_v the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a the_o other_o be_v the_o tree_n of_o life_n the_o fruit_n of_o these_o two_o tree_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o two_o law_n of_o

instance_n will_v not_o serve_v the_o case_n be_v not_o the_o same_o if_o god_n have_v speak_v to_o adam_n there_o may_v have_v be_v some_o show_n or_o colour_n for_o such_o a_o thing_n but_o god_n

here_o affirm_v answ_n in_o answer_n to_o this_o objection_n you_o must_v understand_v that_o the_o image_n of_o god_n be_v hold_v forth_o in_o scripture_n under_o a_o twofold_a consideration_n first_o the_o image_n of_o his_o person_n or_o visible_a appearance_n second_o the_o image_n of_o his_o incomprehensible_a and_o spiritual_a substance_n now_o as_o you_o understand_v adam_n in_o

but_o when_o i_o say_v adam_n be_v make_v in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o person_n or_o visible_a appearance_n we_o be_v not_o to_o understand_v that_o god_n in_o his_o

needs_o be_v so_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o the_o woman_n be_v not_o make_v in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n now_o if_o you_o understand_v by_o image_n any_o thing_n beside_o the_o image_n of_o

the_o woman_n be_v not_o take_v notice_n what_o follow_v first_o it_o will_v appear_v from_o god_n resolution_n before_o man_n creation_n as_o you_o may_v see_v genesis_n 1_o 26._o where_o god_n say_v let_v we_o make_v man_n in_o our_o own_o image_n the_o woman_n be_v not_o mention_v neither_o yet_o include_v in_o the_o man_n as_o it_o appear_v in_o the_o 27._o verse_n where_o you_o shall_v find_v

that_o they_o be_v both_o create_v in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o verse_n in_o these_o word_n male_a and_o female_a create_v he_o they_o the_o same_o expression_n be_v in_o gen._n chap._n 5._o

relation_n of_o their_o creation_n for_o if_o they_o have_v be_v both_o create_v in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n it_o have_v be_v easy_a to_o say_v in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n create_v he_o they_o
