that_o the_o jew_n be_v unclean_a in_o respect_n of_o all_o these_o thing_n and_o therefore_o be_v they_o subject_a to_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n the_o second_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v here_o to_o note_v be_v that_o under_o these_o word_n nation_n and_o people_n the_o prophet_n comprehend_v the_o man_n of_o honour_n of_o mean_a estate_n and_o of_o low_a degree_n isaias_n the_o prophet_n in_o he_o 1._o cap._n 5._o 6._o use_v a_o allegory_n accuse_v in_o these_o word_n all_o estate_n of_o man_n every_o head_n be_v weak_a and_o every_o heart_n be_v heavy_a from_o the_o sole_n of_o the_o foot_n unto_o the_o head_n there_o be_v nothing_o whole_a there-in_a but_o wound_n &_o swell_a &_o sore_n full_a of_o corruption_n you_o see_v how_o upright_o and_o uncorrupt_o the_o prophet_n behave_v themselves_o if_o at_o any_o time_n they_o be_v to_o reproove_v sin_n which_o be_v commit_v by_o man_n of_o all_o estate_n their_o footstep_n must_v we_o follow_v &_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o rebuke_v sinner_n without_o flattery_n or_o respect_n of_o person_n 3_o three_o we_o note_v that_o the_o work_n of_o our_o hand_n be_v unclean_a unless_o they_o be_v sanctify_v by_o prayer_n and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n therefore_o david_n in_o the_o 90._o psalm_n pray_v thus_o let_v the_o beauty_n of_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n be_v upon_o we_o and_o direct_v the_o work_n of_o our_o

psalm_n 1._o ver_fw-la if_o the_o lord_n build_v not_o the_o house_n their_o labour_n be_v but_o in_o vain_a which_o build_v it_o if_o the_o lord_n keep_v not_o the_o city_n the_o watchman_n watch_v but_o in_o vain_a 2._o it_o be_v in_o vain_a for_o you_o to_o rise_v early_o and_o to_o lie_v down_o late_o eat_v the_o bread_n of_o sorrow_n so_o will_v he_o give_v his_o belove_a sleep_n etc._n etc._n 4_o four_o we_o have_v to_o note_v that_o there_o be_v the_o figure_n synecdoche_n in_o the_o word_n offering_n for_o he_o knit_v together_o as_o it_o be_v in_o one_o bundle_n all_o ecclesiastical_a action_n sacrifice_n sacrament_n holy_a day_n fasting_n etc._n etc._n and_o these_o action_n be_v call_v unclean_a not_o in_o respect_n of_o god_n who_o command_v they_o nor_o of_o the_o form_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o man_n which_o do_v not_o do_v they_o in_o faith_n and_o which_o rest_v only_o upon_o the_o work_n wrought_v 5_o five_o the_o end_n and_o use_v of_o the_o oracle_n let_v we_o remember_v that_o the_o prophet_n speak_v these_o thing_n to_o we_o that_o descend_v first_o of_o all_o into_o ourselves_o we_o may_v acknowledge_v and_o be_v hearty_o sorry_a for_o these_o evil_n and_o disease_n wherewith_o we_o be_v infect_v secondlie_o that_o we_o may_v call_v diligent_o to_o a_o account_n our_o counsel_n study_n affair_n and_o that_o we_o may_v not_o faltter_v ourselves_o whenas_o we_o perceive_v that_o we_o have_v rather_o seek_v earthly_a thing_n then_o heavenly_a thing_n and_o last_o that_o we_o may_v well_o weigh_v and_o consider_v with_o ourselves_o how_o and_o with_o what_o conscience_n we_o have_v worship_v god_n hitherto_o and_o that_o we_o be_v hearty_o displease_v with_o ourselves_o if_o we_o shall_v understande_v that_o we_o have_v draw_v nigh_o unto_o god_n with_o our_o mouth_n and_o in_o heart_n have_v be_v far_o from_o he_o a_o supposition_n concern_v the_o study_n of_o divinitle_n 1_o we_o must_v earnest_o beg_v of_o god_n and_o somuch_o as_o ever_o we_o be_v able_a must_v we_o endeavour_n that_o our_o study_n may_v be_v holy_a not_o profane_a and_o unclean_a for_o we_o be_v conversaunt_a in_o chrtstes_n school_n wherein_o we_o must_v be_v most_o earnest_o give_v to_o holiness_n 2_o and_o our_o study_n shall_v be_v clean_o and_o holy_a to_o god_n by_o this_o mean_n if_o god_n shall_v so_o thorough_o sanctify_v we_o that_o our_o spirit_n soul_n and_o body_n may_v be_v perfect_a let_v we_o remember_v that_o we_o be_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o must_v not_o be_v defile_v with_o the_o filthiness_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o spirit_n 2_o the_o work_n of_o our_o hand_n must_v be_v clean_o for_o we_o must_v have_v the_o mystery_n of_o faith_n in_o a_o pure_a conscience_n let_v therefore_o our_o thought_n our_o word_n our_o work_n be_v chaste_a and_o pure_a that_o we_o may_v be_v unto_o other_o a_o laudable_a example_n of_o integrity_n and_o holiness_n be_v student_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n not_o in_o outward_a show_n only_o but_o in_o truth_n and_o in_o deed_n 4_o the_o same_o opinion_n must_v we_o have_v concern_v our_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v our_o prayer_n our_o thanksgiving_n our_o patience_n in_o trouble_n and_o all_o our_o holy_a action_n which_o must_v needs_o be_v lighten_v by_o faith_n and_o the_o knowledge_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o mediator_n that_o they_o may_v be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n and_o profitable_a to_o us._n 5_o the_o author_n of_o our_o study_n be_v god_n of_o who_o it_o be_v often_o time_n say_v in_o the_o law_n be_v you_o
