the_o devil_n in_o hang_v on_o a_o tree_n this_o be_v the_o declare_a platform_n of_o the_o trinity_n according_a to_o their_o eternal_a covenant_n for_o man_n redemption_n as_o i_o have_v express_v it_o in_o the_o dialogue_n but_o have_v often_o in_o this_o book_n amplify_v and_o enlarge_v it_o 3_o it_o be_v worth_a the_o mark_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o put_v the_o article_n the_o to_o the_o word_n curse_n cite_v from_o deut._n 21._o 23._o but_o only_a to_o the_o first_o word_n curse_n as_o it_o be_v cite_v in_o verse_n 10._o from_o deut._n 27._o but_o in_o case_n the_o latter_a word_n curse_n have_v include_v the_o moral_a curse_n as_o well_o as_o the_o former_a word_n curse_n then_o in_o reason_n it_o shall_v have_v have_v the_o article_n the_o put_v to_o it_o as_o well_o as_o it_o be_v to_o the_o former_a but_o because_o it_o be_v not_o put_v to_o the_o latter_a therefore_o this_o may_v serve_v as_o another_o argument_n to_o prove_v the_o apostle_n mean_v that_o christ_n suffer_v no_o other_o curse_n but_o such_o a_o curse_n as_o his_o proof_n mean_v namely_o a_o curse_a death_n in_o the_o outward_a manner_n of_o it_o just_a like_a unto_o those_o malefactor_n that_o be_v hang_v on_o a_o tree_n according_a to_o deut._n 21._o 23._o and_o gen._n 3._o 15._o and_o to_o this_o sense_n do_v chrysostom_n and_o theophilact_fw-mi expound_v the_o curse_n that_o christ_n suffer_v cite_v in_o the_o former_a chapter_n namely_o that_o he_o suffer_v on_o a_o tree_n as_o if_o he_o have_v be_v a_o sinner_n for_o he_o be_v put_v to_o death_n as_o a_o sinner_n by_o the_o devil_n imputation_n but_o not_o by_o god_n imputation_n if_o he_o have_v suffer_v as_o a_o sinner_n from_o god_n immediate_a wrath_n and_o by_o god_n imputation_n than_o he_o must_v some_o way_n or_o other_o have_v have_v communion_n with_o our_o guilt_n for_o say_v grotius_n afore_o cite_v merit_n be_v personal_a and_o therefore_o when_o the_o ancient_a divine_n say_v he_o suffer_v on_o a_o tree_n as_o if_o he_o have_v be_v a_o sinner_n they_o mean_v it_o only_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o likeness_n of_o his_o punishment_n unto_o other_o curse_a malefactor_n which_o punishment_n a_o innocent_a person_n may_v suffer_v as_o well_o as_o a_o malefactor_n and_o so_o austin_n say_v well_o that_o christ_n receive_v our_o punishment_n without_o sin_n that_o thereby_o he_o may_v dissolve_v our_o sin_n and_o end_v our_o punishment_n and_o in_o relation_n to_o this_o sense_n the_o dialogue_n do_v open_v the_o apostle_n word_n thus_o christ_n have_v redeem_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n even_o at_o the_o same_o time_n when_o he_o be_v make_v not_o that_o curse_n in_o verse_n 10._o but_o a_o curse_n for_o we_o according_a to_o deut._n 21._o 23._o but_o say_v mr._n norton_n the_o word_n when_o be_v not_o in_o the_o text_n but_o it_o be_v of_o your_o own_o put_n in_o reply_v 2._o it_o be_v a_o usual_a thing_n with_o mr._n norton_n to_o censure_v the_o dialogue_n with_o some_o odious_a thing_n or_o other_o without_o any_o just_a cause_n but_o by_o his_o leave_n the_o dialogue_n be_v able_a to_o justify_v itself_o by_o the_o concurrence_n of_o good_a

mr._n ainsworth_n do_v render_v this_o text_n thus_o christ_n have_v redeem_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n when_o he_o be_v make_v a_o curse_n for_o we_o in_o exod_n 32._o 32._o 3_o
