A11363	A treatise of Paradise. And the principall contents thereof especially of the greatnesse, situation, beautie, and other properties of that place: of the trees of life, good and euill; of the serpent, cherubin, fiery sword, mans creation, immortalitie, propagation, stature, age, knowledge, temptation, fall, and exclusion out of Paradise; and consequently of his and our originall sin: with many other difficulties touching these points. Collected out of the holy Scriptures, ancient fathers, and other both ancient and moderne writers.	Salkeld, John, 1576-1660.	1617 (1617)	STC 21622; ESTC S116515	126,315	368

of_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a tertullian_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o his_o book_n against_o the_o jew_n say_v that_o this_o commandment_n be_v give_v to_o adam_n as_o the_o

be_v the_o first_o beginning_n of_o mankind_n so_o this_o be_v the_o first_o ground_n of_o all_o other_o law_n but_o though_o this_o can_v be_v reject_v as_o a_o improbable_a speculation_n yet_o certain_o it_o be_v not_o so_o firm_o ground_v in_o the_o sacred_a text_n as_o tertullian_n imagine_v the_o reason_n therefore_o in_o my_o opinion_n why_o god_n so_o strict_o prohibit_v the_o eat_n of_o the_o aforesaid_a fruit_n be_v first_o that_o thereby_o as_o god_n have_v declare_v unto_o we_o his_o power_n over_o we_o so_o we_o shall_v show_v our_o obedience_n towards_o he_o not_o that_o

and_o manifest_a man_n obedience_n towards_o god_n to_o what_o end_n then_o shall_v the_o second_o law_n of_o abstayn_v from_o the_o tree_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n be_v add_v as_o a_o second_o trial_n of_o that_o which_o otherwise_o may_v sufficient_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o obedience_n thereunto_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n will_v not_o have_v be_v a_o sufficient_a trial_n of_o adam_n obedience_n because_o it_o be_v not_o altogether_o manifest_a by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n that_o god_n be_v sole_a and_o supreme_a
