Lev 17. 4 20. 2 3 4. 5. And must needs be so understood when it is used against grievous sins and crimes as against idolatry witchcraft incest and sins done presumptuously despising the Word of the Lord and reproaching him This penalty is to be inflicted by the Magistrates power no doubt And in case of his faile God himself threatens and undertakes to do it Lev. 17. 10 20. 2 3 4. 5 6. 23. 30. And for the lesser offences mentioned they being wittingly and wilfully done in Gods Worship and service and against his plaine and peremptory command I see not how they come short of sins of presumption Numb 15. 30. which are doomed to death in the judgement of the learned upon that place I conceive therefore that they fall short that by this penalty here will understand no more but that such an offender is to be cast off and held for no Jew but as an Heathen man And they also that would apply this phrase here and in other places of the Old Testament for the maintenance of Ecclesiastical Excommunication among the Jewes The doubtfulnesse of the meaning of the phrase hath made me the more inquisitive into it I confesse if not too tedious in it However I leave all to better judgements And for my part like not in things dubious to be too definitive V. 15.

them to be twirs that at a yeare old they were carried into Egypt For thus the reckoning will rise to the fourty third or fourty fourth yeare of Judahs age But these supposed reckonings seem so harsh in that age of the world to the most learned favourers of this opinion that they choose to ease or avoid this to say rather that Hezron and Hamul were not carried down into Egypt but were borne afterwards in Egypt so the learned late Annot. on ch 46. 12. But this were to offer such plain violence to that text and to the drift of that whole chapter and giving way for others borne after in Egypt to be reckoned in as well as they for why not others as well as they and so the whole number to be altered and the intent of the Holy Ghost disappointed that I think upon due consideration had not many will comply with that conceit And the same Annotators disclaim it themselves in their Annotations on ch 38. 1. The other opinion whereunto my resolution bends is this that Jacob being seventy five yeares old married both sisters at the beginning of the fourteen yeares service fulfilling a week in keeping the feast at the marriage of the one and so again presently after at the marriage of the other And the enjoying not the want and hopeful expectation of Rachel made his seven years service for her seem unto him to be bu● a few dayes This addition of seven yeares to the former opinion gives faire way to the birth of all the twelve children in that order and sequence of time as the letter of the words and context of the story do require and gives further scope which yet is little enough for the time of the birth of Hezron and Hamul in the fiftieth year of Judahs age as this opinion makes it when he and they went down with Jacob into Egypt The only difficulty here occuring is the exposition of some words and sentences seeming to favour the first opinion which yet may better receive a commodious interpretation then involve and intangle us in greater perplexities and draw upon us the fore-mentioned incongruities if not impossibilities The text then here saith That Jacob served seven yeares for Rahel that is after he had married her And so all Expositors agree that indeed he did so though most of them infer it upon their construction of the 27. and 28. verses but a few dayes If he had not enjoyed her by marriage all those seven yeares of his service they would have seemed a longsome and tedious time For hope deserred maketh the heart sick Prov. 13. 12. And love makes men think everyday a year till they enjoy the Party loved V. 21. And Jacob said That is had said for my dayes are fulfilled That is I am full of dayes and ripe for marriage being now seventy five yeares old and my brother Esau of my age being married thirty five yeares ago ch 26. 34. that I may go in unto her Not go away with her but use her as my wise whiles I perform my covenanted service of seven yeers for her V. 22. And Laban gathered Had gathered The Hebrews want a preterpluperfect tense V. 23. He took Leah Being veiled as the manner was in bringing Brides into the Bride-chamber Joel 2. 16. and unto their husbands in the dark for modesty sake ch 24. 65. ch 38. 15 16. V. 25. What is this For he hated Leah v. 31. did not I serve with thee for Rachel Covenant to serve with thee beguiled me In the dark and by her silence or soft whispering likely upon her fathers direction which Jacob also might impute to her modesty V. 26. Not be so done in our country Custom here only pretended to cover his accustomed fraud Else he should have said so before and told it V. 27. Fulfil her w●●k The week-feast for Leah and keep her with thee reject her not The marriage-feast continued a week Judg. 14. 10 12 15 17. Thus Laban provides that Jacob by voluntary consent to this marriage with Leah should not be able afterwards to put her away give thee this also for the service All Expositors here agree that Jacob did not first serve these seven yeares and after marry Rachel But married her first and served after V. 28. And fulfilled her week Leahs week for her marriage-feast Or it may be understood of Rachels week for her marriage-feast presently succeeding the other V. 30. And he went in also unto Rachel At the first Creation in Adams time And again in Noahs time when there was most need of multiplication of mankinde yet God allotted but one woman for one man And therefore though the Law against plurality of wives was not yet so expressely and literally declared nor against the marriage of two sisters as afterwards it was Lev. 18. 18. yet this here in Jacob cannot be allowed unlesse besides a disposition of the divine Provid●●ce in it there were a dispensation by divine authority for it Neither may it without like warrant be drawn into example As neither the example of Abraham taking Hagar nor Jacobs taking here of Zilpah and Bilhah V. 31. Hated Not simply but in comparison of Rachel v. 30. so in Deut. 21. 15. Mat. 6. 24. Luke 14. 26. John 12. 25. V. 35. Now will I praise Openly in solemn manner This here applied to the Lord is after applied to Judah himself ch 49. 8. of Judah the Nation were afterwards called Jewes and left bearing If but two yeares yet she could not have three children more viz. Issachar Zebulun and Dinah at several births within the compasse of one seven yeares yea the favourers of that opinion confesse that it must needs be that it was not above a half yeare that she stayed ere she conceived again Mr. Jackson on ch 30. 9.
