this_o that_o god_n will_v be_v abraham_n god_n and_o his_o seed_n after_o he_o and_o that_o he_o will_v give_v they_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n for_o a_o everlasting_a possession_n the_o meaning_n

here_o in_o this_o be_v no_o more_o employ_v but_o that_o if_o they_o observe_v circumcision_n god_n will_v bless_v they_o there_o be_v no_o mention_n of_o accept_v for_o god_n law_n whatsoever_o abraham_n shall_v deliver_v and_o therefore_o he_o may_v have_v spare_v his_o follow_a discourse_n which_o say_v he_o they_o can_v not_o be_v but_o in_o virtue_n of_o the_o obedience_n they_o owe_v to_o their_o parent_n who_o if_o they_o be_v subject_a to_o no_o other_o earthly_a power_n as_o here_o in_o the_o case_n of_o abraham_n have_v sovereign_a power_n over_o their_o child_n and_o

power_n to_o be_v force_v to_o it_o but_o i_o be_o of_o his_o mind_n that_o they_o who_o be_v parent_n where_o be_v no_o other_o establish_a sovereignty_n have_v that_o supreme_a power_n over_o their_o child_n and_o servant_n which_o one_o conclusion_n will_v confute_v the_o whole_a body_n of_o his_o politic_n as_o i_o intend_v to_o show_v hereafter_o chap._n xxii_o sect_n xvii_o the_o obedience_n of_o abraham_n family_n to_o god_n law_n depend_v upon_o that_o to_o he_o as_o father_n of_o the_o family_n mr._n hobbs_n his_o consequence_n draw_v from_o this_o proposition_n not_o right_o deduce_v his_o constant_a vary_v from_o the_o english_a translation_n observe_v and_o censure_v reason_n against_o former_a deduction_n the_o entire_a obedience_n of_o the_o israelite_n to_o the_o dictate_v of_o moses_n rather_o from_o the_o conference_n of_o his_o divine_a inspiration_n as_o a_o prophet_n than_o his_o sovereign_a power_n the_o authority_n of_o scripture_n depend_v not_o upon_o the_o declaration_n of_o the_o sovereign_a the_o worshipper_n of_o baal_n not_o excuse_v from_o the_o command_n of_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n the_o reason_n of_o mr._n hobbs_n his_o former_a assertion_n disprove_v the_o command_n of_o the_o sovereign_a just_o oppose_v when_o contrary_a to_o the_o christian_a faith_n mr._n hobbs_n his_o atheistical_a conclusion_n censure_v but_o he_o have_v another_o piece_n of_o scripture_n which_o you_o may_v read_v gen_n 18._o 18_o 19_o again_o where_o god_n say_v to_o abraham_n in_o thou_o shall_v all_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v bless_v for_o i_o know_v thou_o will_v command_v thy_o child_n and_o thy_o house_n after_o thou_o to_o keep_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o observe_v righteousness_n and_o judgement_n it_o be_v manifest_a the_o obedience_n of_o his_o family_n who_o have_v no_o revelation_n depend_v on_o their_o former_a obligation_n to_o obey_v their_o sovereign_n thus_o far_o mr._n hobbs_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a that_o this_o obedience_n of_o abraham_n family_n to_o himself_o depend_v upon_o their_o filial_a obedience_n to_o he_o as_o their_o father_n and_o his_o command_v they_o depend_v upon_o his_o sovereign_a power_n over_o they_o as_o their_o father_n but_o what_o can_v it_o be_v collect_v hence_o that_o if_o abraham_n have_v command_v dishonest_a thing_n i._n e._n such_o action_n as_o be_v against_o any_o will_n of_o god_n reveal_v any_o other_o way_n to_o they_o that_o they_o shall_v have_v obey_v he_o certain_o no_o nay_o the_o contrary_a be_v here_o intimate_v for_o therefore_o god_n promise_v to_o bless_v he_o and_o his_o posterity_n because_o he_o do_v know_v that_o abraham_n will_v command_v they_o virtuous_a thing_n to_o keep_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o mark_v here_o mr._n hobbs_n still_o varye_v from_o the_o english_a lection_n and_o that_o to_o the_o worse_o for_o it_o be_v not_o what_o he_o write_v to_o keep_v but_o he_o will_v command_v they_o and_o they_o shall_v keep_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n so_o that_o the_o sense_n be_v because_o god_n foresee_v his_o fatherly_a care_n and_o their_o filial_a duty_n in_o these_o righteous_a action_n he_o will_v bless_v they_o he_o prosecute_v this_o conclusion_n with_o another_o scripture_n thus_o at_o mount_n sinai_n moses_n only_o go_v up_o to_o god_n the_o people_n be_v forbid_v to_o approach_v on_o pain_n of_o death_n yet_o be_v they_o bind_v to_o obey_v all_o that_o moses_n declare_v unto_o they_o for_o god_n law_n
