he_o do_v in_o all_o commonwealth_n for_o by_o he_o king_n reign_n for_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a time_n when_o there_o be_v no_o king_n in_o israel_n and_o god_n appoint_v sometime_o judge_n chief_n that_o be_v king_n to_o govern_v they_o between_o which_o judge_n there_o be_v interval_n and_o i_o will_v know_v what_o temporal_a jurisdiction_n god_n exercise_v over_o they_o in_o those_o interval_n or_o at_o that_o time_n when_o there_o be_v no_o king_n certain_o none_o that_o we_o ever_o read_v of_o in_o holy_a writ_n and_o it_o be_v reasonable_a to_o suppose_v god_n exercise_v none_o for_o that_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n be_v then_o grievous_o oppress_v and_o so_o continue_v sometime_o for●y_a year_n before_o a_o deliverer_n rise_v up_o which_o they_o need_v not_o to_o have_v do_v if_o god_n have_v undertake_v the_o temporal_a government_n for_o that_o god_n by_o his_o power_n be_v able_a to_o have_v deliver_v they_o which_o we_o see_v he_o never_o do_v but_o by_o a_o temporal_a governor_n in_o the_o time_n of_o which_o governor_n the_o high_a priest_n be_v not_o god_n viceroy_n but_o rather_o the_o governor_n be_v and_o the_o 17._o deut._n 9_o &_o 12._o v._n clear_o make_v the_o priest_n and_o the_o judge_n which_o shall_v then_o afterward_o be_v different_a person_n and_o different_a employment_n so_o it_o be_v most_o apparent_a that_o god_n be_v no_o otherwise_o the_o temporal_a king_n of_o the_o israelite_n than_o he_o be_v king_n of_o all_o the_o earth_n nor_o the_o high_a priest_n as_o high_a priest_n his_o viceroy_n though_o the_o israelite_n be_v his_o choose_a people_n as_o to_o religious_a worship_n and_o as_o to_o the_o 1_o sam._n 8._o 7._o which_o mr._n hobbes_n cite_v where_o god_n say_v to_o samuel_n when_o the_o people_n ask_v a_o king_n they_o have_v not_o reject_v thou_o but_o they_o have_v reject_v i_o that_o i_o shall_v not_o rule_v over_o they_o it_o be_v no_o more_o but_o that_o god_n be_v angry_a with_o they_o for_o not_o take_v such_o a_o governor_n as_o he_o be_v please_v to_o set_v over_o they_o as_o samuel_n then_o be_v and_o baruck_v jeptha_n and_o samson_n have_v be_v but_o that_o they_o will_v have_v one_o not_o only_o of_o their_o own_o choose_n but_o also_o a●ter_v the_o similitude_n of_o other_o nation_n which_o god_n have_v reject_v and_o have_v choose_v they_o for_o his_o peculiar_a people_n and_o so_o in_o that_o sense_n they_o may_v be_v say_v to_o reject_v god_n in_o that_o they_o reject_v those_o he_o do_v set_v over_o they_o as_o to_o mr._n hobbes_n his_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n i_o think_v they_o nothing_o to_o the_o matter_n and_o so_o i_o shall_v pass_v they_o over_o as_o he_o say_v he_o do_v many_o more_o place_n for_o this_o purpose_n not_o cite_v but_o instead_o of_o cite_v they_o sly_o as_o i_o think_v clap_v his_o hand_n at_o the_o clergy_n p._n 219._o and_o say_v it_o be_v a_o wonder_n no_o more_o notice_n be_v take_v of_o this_o but_o that_o it_o give_v too_o much_o light_n to_o christian_a king_n to_o see_v their_o right_n of_o ecclesiastical_a government_n to_o this_o i_o will_v answer_v for_o the_o clergy_n of_o england_n that_o those_o that_o be_v not_o infect_v with_o a_o spice_n of_o popery_n as_o i_o be_o afraid_a some_o such_o there_o be_v god_n make_v they_o few_o or_o some_o for_o want_n of_o due_a consideration_n always_o acknowledge_v the_o king_n for_o supreme_a head_n of_o the_o church_n and_o by_o that_o title_n pray_v for_o he_o and_o not_o by_o that_o sleighty_a title_n of_o supreme_a moderator_n of_o the_o church_n and_o the_o english_a clergy_n if_o some_o few_o do_v otherwise_o be_v no_o more_o to_o be_v blame_v for_o this_o than_o the_o english_a soldier_n be_v in_o the_o bless_a reign_n of_o queen_n elizabeth_n to_o be_v blame_v in_o holland_n because_o stanley_n and_o york_n deliver_v town_n up_o to_o the_o spaniard_n or_o english_a writer_n because_o one_o english_a man_n have_v write_v such_o a_o book_n as_o the_o leviathan_n who_o after_o his_o learned_a discourse_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n come_v to_o tell_v we_o p._n 219._o what_o the_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n be_v and_o say_v those_o be_v in_o it_o that_o promise_v obedience_n to_o god_n government_n i_o suppose_v he_o mean_v temporal_a of_o which_o he_o have_v be_v treat_v before_o to_o who_o say_v he_o god_n have_v gratis_o give_v to_o be_v his_o subject_n hereafter_o which_o be_v call_v the_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n now_o certain_o the_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n by_o all_o man_n before_o mr._n hobbes_n be_v take_v to_o be_v god_n

the_o mercy_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n they_o be_v make_v inheritor_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n and_o what_o a_o quibble_n this_o be_v of_o mr._n hobbes_n from_o the_o word_n gratis_o to_o change_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n i_o shall_v refer_v to_o any_o intelligent_a person_n mr._n hobbes_n come_v in_o his_o 36._o chapter_n to_o treat_v of_o ●he_n word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o prophet_n come_v to_o show_v what_o word_n signify_v in_o scripture_n of_o which_o i_o do_v think_v he_o have_v give_v a_o true_a account_n in_o several_a text_n but_o be_v not_o able_a in_o any_o kind_n of_o truth_n to_o hold_v out_o long_o for_o p._n 224._o he_o say_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o several_a text_n of_o scripture_n signify_v which_o i_o never_o observe_v in_o any_o such_o word_n as_o be_v consonant_a to_o the_o dictate_v of_o right_a reason_n and_o the_o first_o text_n he_o cite_v be_v 2_o chron._n 35._o 22._o where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o josiah_n hearken_v not_o to_o the_o word_n of_o necho_n from_o the_o mouth_n of_o god_n which_o say_v mr._n hobbes_n be_v but_o the_o dictate_v of_o reason_n this_o be_v most_o palpable_o unreasonable_a for_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n for_o josiah_n to_o forbear_v fight_v with_o necho_n the_o king_n of_o judah_n have_v beat_v as_o great_a king_n as_o the_o king_n of_o egypt_n and_o the_o jew_n be_v then_o in_o a_o powerful_a condition_n when_o he_o come_v into_o his_o country_n with_o a_o great_a army_n so_o this_o text_n must_v either_o be_v intend_v that_o the_o word_n of_o

nay_o mr._n hobbes_n himself_o cite_v esdras_n for_o this_o last_o interpretation_n but_o say_v that_o in_o this_o he_o approve_v not_o a_o apocryphal_a writer_n though_o before_o when_o he_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o invalidate_v the_o scripture_n by_o make_v the_o penman_n of_o they_o uncertain_a seem_v strong_o to_o incline_v that_o esdras_n be_v the_o penman_n of_o they_o after_o the_o captivity_n when_o it_o may_v be_v suppose_v the_o certain_a truth_n be_v lose_v and_o that_o only_a from_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o book_n of_o esdras_n who_o authority_n or_o rather_o interpretation_n he_o here_o reject_v and_o then_o mr._n hobbes_n go_v on_o to_o cite_v several_a other_o text_n of_o scripture_n to_o prove_v that_o in_o scripture_n by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v mean_v the_o dictate_v of_o reason_n or_o equity_n as_o jerem._n 31._o 33._o and_o other_o place_n where_o god_n say_v he_o will_v write_v his_o law_n in_o their_o heart_n which_o place_n by_o all_o other_o man_n i_o think_v have_v be_v interpret_v the_o operation_n of_o god_n spirit_n upon_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n by_o incline_v they_o to_o obey_v his_o law_n after_o god_n have_v teach_v they_o by_o his_o prophet_n or_o minister_n and_o there_o be_v no_o cause_n to_o call_v that_o reason_n or_o the_o proceed_v of_o reason_n which_o the_o scripture_n term_v the_o operation_n of_o god_n a_o man_n bring_v reason_n or_o a_o aptitude_n to_o it_o into_o the_o world_n and_o so_o he_o do_v not_o that_o which_o god_n effect_n in_o he_o after_o he_o be_v in_o the_o world_n mr._n hobbes_n p._n 238._o say_v that_o a_o private_a man_n have_v power_n to_o believe_v or_o not_o believe_v miracle_n think_v b●ing_v free_a but_o say_v he_o when_o it_o come_v to_o public_a confession_n the_o
