that_o this_o text_n have_v not_o any_o such_o reservation_n as_o above_o mention_v because_o the_o commination_n in_o this_o text_n must_v accord_v with_o other_o the_o like_a commination_n which_o do_v limit_v the_o curse_n threaten_v to_o the_o same_o numerical_a and_o individual_a person_n that_o be_v inherent_a and_o formal_a sinner_n as_o in_o deut._n 27._o 26._o gal._n 3._o 10._o ezek._n

sin_n can_v be_v no_o less_o i_o think_v than_o a_o monster_n in_o religion_n 5_o this_o reason_n also_o make_v it_o evident_a that_o the_o first_o covenant_n justice_n though_o the_o first_o covenant_n be_v suppose_v to_o be_v make_v in_o relation_n to_o adam_n obedience_n or_o disobedience_n to_o the_o moral_a law_n of_o nature_n yet_o in_o that_o sense_n it_o be_v not_o a_o complete_a

obedience_n or_o disobedience_n to_o the_o moral_a law_n of_o nature_n because_o it_o neither_o take_v in_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o gospel_n nor_o yet_o the_o duty_n nor_o the_o reward_n of_o it_o these_o be_v supply_v by_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n god_n do_v add_v what_o his_o good_a pleasure_n be_v to_o add_v when_o he_o publish_v the_o gospel_n which_o be_v

threaten_v in_o case_n adam_n disobey_v by_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n or_o thus_o both_o the_o elect_a and_o the_o reprobate_n be_v alike_o guilty_a of_o adam_n sin_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v
