of_o great_a note_n which_o make_v the_o word_n from_o the_o ten_o verse_n to_o the_o end_n a_o promise_n of_o good_a by_o christ_n to_o his_o church_n give_v yet_o a_o different_a construction_n of_o

although_o we_o seem_v to_o express_v much_o the_o same_o that_o those_o translatour_n will_v have_v by_o put_v ver_n 14._o so_o will_v i_o destroy_v instead_o of_o what_o other_o put_v and_o i_o

for_o a_o connexion_n between_o every_o chapter_n or_o all_o other_o passage_n in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o prophet_n in_o as_o much_o as_o they_o speak_v they_o at_o several_a time_n and_o so_o

this_o prophecy_n we_o may_v not_o unfit_o take_v a_o hint_n from_o a_o jewish_a ●barbinel_n doctor_n to_o this_o purpose_n that_o whereas_o god_n have_v sometime_o threaten_v to_o they_o heavy_a

here_o bid_v the_o prophet_n to_o declare_v the_o method_n of_o his_o proceed_n to_o they_o by_o rehearse_v what_o he_o have_v do_v for_o they_o and_o their_o forefather_n and_o what_o just_a thing_n

appear_v that_o he_o be_v always_o incline_v to_o mercy_n and_o to_o do_v they_o good_a but_o that_o they_o by_o the_o unequal_a temper_n of_o their_o behaviour_n and_o perverse_a rebellious_a carriage_n provoke_v he_o to_o use_v severity_n towards_o they_o and_o to_o deal_v with_o they_o in_o judgement_n that_o he_o may_v not_o seem_v a_o patronizer_n of_o wickedness_n the_o cause_n be_v
