to_o balaam_n we_o may_v answer_v that_o he_o speak_v of_o jehovah_n as_o the_o god_n of_o israel_n and_o his_o word_n 21._o numb_a 23_o 21._o be_v jehovah_n his_o god_n be_v with_o he_o which_o

his_o god_n be_v with_o he_o whence_o it_o seem_v plain_a that_o he_o mean_v by_o it_o that_o the_o god_n who_o be_v more_o peculiar_o style_v jehovah_n among_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o help_v and_o defend_v they_o and_o it_o be_v very_o probable_a that_o the_o name_n be_v only_o know_v among_o the_o jew_n by_o the_o very_a signification_n of_o it_o according_a to_o dr._n lightfoot_n which_o be_v

answer_n to_o our_o author_n i_o will_v venture_v to_o advance_v this_o probable_a account_n of_o it_o that_o though_o job_n as_o be_v now_o general_o believe_v live_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o

thereby_o to_o show_v the_o israelite_n and_o other_o that_o it_o be_v the_o same_o jehovah_n who_o be_v their_o god_n and_o in_o covenant_n with_o they_o lest_o the_o people_n who_o be_v very_o

chief_a argument_n our_o author_n insist_o upon_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v very_o little_a if_o at_o all_o to_o his_o purpose_n and_o see_v his_o 90._o pag._n 90._o lordship_n in_o answer_n to_o his_o

i_o do_v see_v what_o reason_n he_o have_v to_o call_v it_o a_o federal_a whimsy_n here_o i_o can_v help_v observe_v our_o 45._o pag._n 45._o author_n conclusion_n of_o this_o paragraph_n which_o

against_o a_o foresee_a charge_n of_o heresy_n which_o certain_o he_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o fear_v since_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o he_o have_v hitherto_o say_v any_o thing_n that_o look_v
