for_o one_o fault_n though_o it_o be_v not_o well_o conclude_v out_o of_o that_o place_n of_o the_o prophet_n for_o there_o the_o meaning_n be_v that_o god_n will_v make_v a_o final_a destruction_n at_o the_o first_o he_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o afflict_v they_o again_o as_o abishai_n say_v to_o david_n in_o that_o sense_n â—_o let_v i_o smite_v with_o a_o spear_n to_o the_o ground_n and_o i_o

though_o the_o wicked_a be_v temporal_o punish_v here_o yet_o god_n may_v afterward_o use_v some_o mitigation_n of_o punishment_n in_o hell_n for_o that_o which_o they_o endure_v here_o and_o this_o

to_o the_o great_a sin_n though_o no_o temporal_a judgement_n shall_v go_v before_o nor_o the_o second_o for_o though_o they_o be_v guilty_a of_o many_o sin_n yet_o when_o god_n punish_v they_o for_o

herein_o that_o when_o they_o ask_v of_o the_o egyptian_n their_o jewel_n they_o may_v receive_v of_o they_o armour_n likewise_o it_o be_v not_o like_a that_o they_o will_v cumber_v themselves_o

therefore_o josephus_n opinion_n be_v probable_a that_o the_o israelite_n come_v forth_o of_o egypt_n unarm_v and_o that_o after_o the_o egyptian_n be_v drown_v in_o the_o red_a sea_n their_o armour_n
