and_o in_o he_o we_o may_v observe_v four_o thing_n his_o name_n his_o country_n his_o parentage_n his_o commission_n the_o first_o thing_n observable_a in_o the_o preacher_n or_o prophet_n be_v his_o name_n which_o i_o shall_v little_o more_o than_o name_n jonah_n which_o be_v hebrew_a for_o a_o dove_n and_o in_o some_o sense_n every_o prophet_n or_o preacher_n shall_v be_v a_o jonah_n shall_v

how_o ridiculous_a will_v man_n think_v such_o word_n as_o these_o they_o will_v certain_o take_v they_o but_o for_o some_o jewish_a fable_n but_o these_o ninevite_n be_v nothing_o so_o incredulous_a as_o man_n be_v now_o adays_o they_o confer_v not_o with_o flesh_n and_o blood_n but_o repent_v at_o the_o preach_n of_o jonah_n though_o a_o jew_n though_o a_o mere_a stranger_n to_o they_o but_o the_o man_n of_o our_o age_n be_v so_o far_o from_o give_v heed_n to_o stranger_n that_o those_o of_o their_o own_o nation_n can_v bring_v they_o to_o repentance_n the_o three_o thing_n observable_a in_o the_o prophet_n or_o preacher_n here_o be_v his_o parentage_n he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o amittai_n chap._n 1._o ver_fw-la 1._o now_o amittai_n be_v interpret_v be_v as_o much_o as_o true_a or_o

take_v from_o those_o word_n of_o the_o widdow-woman_n 1_o king_n 17._o ult_n by_o this_o i_o know_v that_o thou_o be_v a_o man_n of_o god_n and_o that_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o thy_o mouth_n be_v truth_n from_o whence_o some_o will_v observe_v that_o because_o the_o woman_n find_v elijah_n a_o true_a prophet_n in_o restore_v of_o her_o son_n to_o life_n therefore_o she_o call_v her_o son_n name_n amittai_n true_a or_o truth_n but_o this_o can_v be_v so_o for_o two_o reason_n as_o luther_n have_v well_o observe_v for_o first_o elijah_n live_v we_o know_v in_o the_o day_n of_o ahab_n but_o jonah_n and_o amittai_n live_v in_o the_o day_n of_o jeroboaem_n the_o second_o second_o the_o widow_n of_o zarephath_n be_v a_o zidonian_a and_o so_o a_o gentile_a but_o jonah_n and_o amittai_n be_v of_o gath-heph_a in_o the_o tribe_n of_o zebulon_n and_o therefore_o jew_n 2_o king_n 14.25_o but_o to_o pass_v by_o this_o genealogy_n we_o will_v observe_v only_o in_o general_n that_o our_o prophet_n here_o be_v the_o son_n of_o amittai_n that_o be_v the_o son_n of_o truth_n and_o so_o indeed_o shall_v all_o prophet_n all_o preacher_n of_o the_o word_n be_v sons_z of_o amittai_o like_o this_o our_o prophet_n here_o not_o speak_v lie_v in_o hypocrisy_n but_o right_o divide_v the_o word_n of_o truth_n but_o how_o few_o such_o son_n of_o amittai_n be_v there_o at_o this_o day_n our_o saviour_n prediction_n be_v long_o since_o come_v to_o pass_v false_a prophet_n be_v rise_v up_o among_o we_o and_o have_v deceive_v many_o such_o as_o have_v change_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n into_o a_o lie_n privy_o bring_v in_o most_o damnable_a heresy_n and_o too_o too_o many_o follow_v their_o pernicious_a way_n by_o reason_n of_o who_o the_o way_n of_o the_o church_n of_o

people_n love_v to_o have_v it_o so_o and_o what_o will_v they_o do_v unless_o it_o please_v god_n to_o restrain_v they_o in_o the_o end_n thereof_o but_o here_o perhaps_o you_o may_v ask_v as_o pilate_n once_o do_v what_o be_v truth_n how_o shall_v we_o know_v the_o son_n of_o amitai_n these_o son_n of_o truth_n how_o shall_v we_o try_v the_o spirit_n whether_o they_o be_v of_o god_n for_o answer_v to_o which_o i_o must_v lead_v you_o to_o the_o three_o thing_n observable_a in_o our_o prophet_n here_o and_o that_o in_o his_o warrant_n or_o commission_n he_o be_v send_v from_o god_n
