of_o the_o commission_n give_v to_o ezra_n by_o artaxerxes_n that_o these_o thing_n be_v evident_a 1._o that_o the_o king_n do_v not_o himself_o embrace_v the_o religion_n of_o the_o jewish_a nation_n but_o retain_v still_o his_o former_a religion_n for_o though_o he_o do_v fear_v the_o god_n of_o israel_n yet_o he_o never_o call_v he_o his_o god_n but_o the_o god_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o god_n of_o ezra_n etc._n etc._n 2._o that_o god_n have_v by_o a_o special_a providence_n and_o motion_n from_o himself_o dispose_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o king_n of_o persia_n to_o give_v free_a liberty_n to_o the_o jew_n which_o be_v captive_n in_o his_o dominion_n to_o go_v forth_o to_o serve_v their_o god_n vers_fw-la 13._o i_o make_v a_o decree_n that_o all_o they_o of_o the_o people_n of_o

shall_v seem_v good_a to_o they_o after_o the_o will_n of_o your_o god_n 3._o the_o king_n do_v not_o only_o give_v a_o present_a supply_n to_o ezra_n as_o a_o free-will-offering_a to_o the_o god_n of_o israel_n vers_fw-la 15._o but_o also_o provide_v for_o his_o necessary_a supply_n for_o the_o future_a out_o of_o the_o king_n treasury_n vers_fw-la 20._o 4._o the_o king_n fear_v the_o

5._o the_o king_n also_o empower_v ezra_n to_o set_v magistrate_n and_o judge_n over_o the_o people_n and_o in_o so_o do_v give_v ezra_n a_o magistratical_a power_n or_o make_v he_o a_o magistrate_n and_o so_o give_v order_n that_o whosoever_o will_v not_o be_v obedient_a to_o he_o shall_v be_v punish_v vers_fw-la 25_o 26._o this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o the_o commission_n give_v to_o ezra_n by_o the_o king_n of_o persia_n in_o all_o which_o nothing_o appear_v that_o any_o of_o his_o subject_n shall_v be_v compel_v to_o alter_v their_o religion_n nor_o be_v force_v to_o be_v all_o of_o one_o religion_n but_o a_o free_a liberty_n be_v give_v to_o the_o jew_n as_o well_o as_o to_o other_o to_o serve_v their_o god_n according_a to_o his_o law_n and_o a_o restraint_n lay_v upon_o they_o that_o will_v hinder_v they_o and_o ezra_n be_v empower_v indeed_o to_o punish_v those_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n according_a to_o that_o law_n if_o they_o will_v not_o do_v it_o

for_o all_o king_n to_o fear_v the_o god_n of_o heaven_n and_o to_o advance_v the_o interest_n of_o religion_n in_o their_o dominion_n and_o it_o be_v as_o evident_a that_o religion_n must_v always_o be_v settle_v according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n with_o the_o great_a care_n that_o may_v be_v and_o none_o punish_v for_o keep_v the_o law_n of_o god_n but_o for_o break_v the_o law_n of_o god_n
