say_v the_o word_n or_o promise_v that_o christ_n shall_v come_v into_o the_o world_n who_o in_o the_o beginning_n be_v with_o god_n that_o be_v to_o say_v it_o be_v in_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n the_o father_n to_o send_v god_n the_o son_n into_o the_o world_n to_o enlighten_v man_n in_o the_o way_n of_o eternal_a life_n but_o it_o be_v not_o till_o then_o put_v in_o execution_n and_o actual_o incarnate_a so_o that_o our_o saviour_n be_v there_o call_v the_o word_n not_o because_o he_o be_v the_o promise_n but_o the_o thing_n promise_v they_o that_o take_v occasion_n from_o this_o place_n do_v common_o call_v he_o the_o verb_n of_o god_n do_v but_o render_v the_o text_n more_o obscure_a they_o may_v as_o well_o term_v he_o the_o noun_n of_o god_n for_o as_o by_o noun_n so_o also_o by_o verb_n man_n understand_v nothing_o but_o a_o part_n of_o speech_n a_o voice_n a_o sound_n that_o neither_o affirm_v nor_o deny_v nor_o command_n nor_o promise_v nor_o be_v any_o substance_n corporeal_a or_o spiritual_a and_o therefore_o it_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v either_o god_n or_o man_n whereas_o our_o saviour_n be_v both_o and_o this_o word_n which_o st._n john_n in_o

that_o he_o can_v be_v in_o no_o other_o sense_n call_v the_o word_n then_o in_o that_o wherein_o he_o be_v call_v eternal_a life_n that_o be_v he_o that_o have_v procure_v we_o eternal_a life_n by_o his_o come_n in_o the_o flesh_n so_o also_o apocalypse_v 19_o 13._o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o christ_n clothe_v in_o a_o garment_n dip_v in_o blood_n say_v his_o name_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n
