serpent_n be_v a_o figure_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n 3.14_o as_o he_o himself_o expound_v it_o in_o the_o gospel_n moreover_o where_o moses_n tell_v the_o people_n that_o god_n will_v raise_v unto_o they_o a_o prophet_n like_o unto_o himself_o even_o of_o their_o brethren_n 18.15_o unto_o who_o they_o shall_v harken_v the_o letter_n teach_v we_o nothing_o else_o but_o that_o josua_n

the_o word_n of_o moses_n ●_o also_o even_o as_o the_o bonbage_n of_o the_o israelite_n in_o egypte_n and_o their_o peregrination_n in_o the_o wilderness_n beside_o that_o be_v plain_o express_v by_o

of_o canaan_n but_o according_a to_o the_o allegory_n they_o teach_v all_o the_o faithful_a the_o everlasting_a rest_n by_o christ_n in_o heaven_n 4.9_o but_o for_o the_o further_a

we_o to_o extol_v &_o magnify_v his_o name_n for_o wonderful_a be_v his_o work_n to_o our_o great_a profit_n and_o commodity_n final_o to_o obey_v his_o law_n and_o statute_n for_o he_o serve_v they_o

the_o letter_n which_o although_o for_o diverse_a cause_n it_o be_v very_o necessary_a to_o be_v understand_v yet_o be_v consider_v of_o itself_o without_o any_o further_a application_n of_o the_o

unto_o the_o letter_n certain_a general_a lesson_n for_o the_o instruction_n of_o all_o christian_n which_o application_n of_o the_o scripture_n unto_o ourselves_o the_o apostle_n put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o where_o he_o say_v 15.4_o what_o soever_o thing_n be_v write_v afore_o time_n they_o be_v write_v for_o our_o learning_n that_o we_o through_o patience_n and_o comfort_n of_o the_o

of_o this_o interpretation_n where_o the_o word_n of_o the_o almighty_a god_n speak_v only_o unto_o josua_n and_o pertain_a only_o unto_o he_o according_a to_o the_o letter_n be_v use_v as_o a_o general_a lesson_n for_o all_o man_n to_o teach_v they_o to_o put_v their_o trust_n in_o god_n after_o that_o moses_n be_v dead_a god_n appoint_v josua_n to_o be_v ruler_n of_o the_o israelite_n and_o to_o bring_v they_o into_o the_o land_n of_o promise_n and_o because_o he_o shall_v not_o fear_v nor_o be_v dismay_v god_n say_v unto_o he_o 1.5_o as_o i_o be_v with_o my_o servant_n moses_n so_o i_o will_v be_v with_o thou_o i_o will_v not_o fail_v thou_o nor_o forsake_v thou_o upon_o these_o word_n the_o apostle_n ground_v this_o general_a doctrine_n 13.5_o let_v your_o conversation_n be_v

god_n have_v say_v unto_o josua_n i_o will_v not_o fail_v thou_o neither_o forsake_v thou_o teach_v we_o thereby_o to_o apply_v the_o holy_a scripture_n to_o our_o comfort_n &_o confirmation_n of_o
