how_o in_o gospel_n day_n the_o true_a believer_n of_o jacob_n and_o esau_n shall_v become_v one_o body_n of_o a_o gospel-church_n and_o in_o this_o body_n they_o of_o esau_n shall_v be_v as_o hand_n

all_o famous_a protestant_n in_o their_o day_n judge_v rather_o that_o he_o be_v save_v and_o the_o whole_a passage_n of_o jacob_n and_o esau_n beside_o that_o it_o have_v its_o historical_a fulfil_n

they_o be_v particular_o dispose_v of_o immediate_o after_o death_n who_o die_v in_o infancy_n seem_v a_o great_a depth_n and_o be_v a_o great_a mystery_n and_o be_v best_a know_v unto_o the_o lord_n for_o it_o be_v general_o grant_v that_o god_n have_v his_o way_n to_o reach_v to_o infant_n and_o deal_v with_o they_o both_o in_o the_o womb_n and_o upon_o the_o mother_n breast_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o leave_v secret_a thing_n unto_o god_n until_o he_o reveal_v they_o and_o be_v satisfy_v with_o what_o he_o have_v reveal_v now_o this_o be_v plain_o reveal_v and_o declare_v in_o the_o

their_o mouth_n and_o great_o glory_n in_o it_o that_o they_o be_v in_o church-covenant_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v holy_a and_o their_o child_n also_o some_o call_v it_o federal_a or_o covenant_n

grow_v up_o to_o youth_n be_v as_o unholy_a and_o sometime_o worse_o as_o the_o child_n of_o unbeliever_n but_o that_o child_n general_o either_o of_o believer_n or_o unbeliever_n be_v actual_o

that_o john_n the_o baptist_n be_v sanctify_v from_o the_o mother_n womb_n and_o the_o like_a of_o jeremiah_n and_o so_o perhaps_o may_v be_v gather_v of_o moses_n or_o some_o other_o but_o these_o

that_o in_o adam_n all_o die_n 1_o cor._n 15.22_o and_o rom._n 5.12_o that_o by_o one_o man_n sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n and_o death_n by_o sin_n and_o so_o death_n pass_v upon_o all_o man_n for_o that_o all_o have_v sin_v and_o that_o christ_n have_v die_v for_o all_o man_n prove_v that_o all_o man_n be_v dead_a as_o paul_n argue_v the_o case_n and_o david_n though_o he_o be_v the_o

christ_n jesus_n who_o give_v himself_o a_o ransom_n for_o all_o to_o be_v testify_v in_o due_a time_n heb._n 2.9_o that_o he_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n shall_v taste_v death_n for_o every_o

all_o must_v needs_o be_v as_o full_a and_o universal_a with_o respect_n to_o christ_n death_n and_o the_o benefit_n of_o it_o as_o it_o be_v with_o respect_n to_o adam_n fall_n because_o the_o

all_o than_o all_o be_v dead_a now_o if_o all_o only_o signify_v some_o in_o the_o first_o part_n of_o the_o verse_n the_o sense_n must_v run_v thus_o if_o one_o die_v for_o some_o or_o a_o few_o than_o all_o be_v dead_a this_o quite_o make_v void_a the_o apostle_n inference_n for_o if_o christ_n only_o die_v for_o some_o then_o only_o some_o be_v dead_a and_o not_o all_o again_o in_o rom._n 5.18_o the_o parallel_n be_v very_o plain_a as_o by_o the_o offence_n of_o one_o judgement_n be_v come_v upon_o all_o unto_o condemnation_n even_o so_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o one_o the_o free_a gift_n be_v come_v upon_o all_o unto_o justification_n of_o life_n not_o that_o all_o be_v actual_o justify_v but_o the_o free_a gift_n be_v come_v upon_o they_o that_o they_o may_v be_v justify_v and_o so_o it_o be_v that_o the_o two_o side_n or_o part_n of_o parallel_n be_v of_o equal_a extent_n beside_o that_o the_o word_n all_o in_o scripture_n do_v most_o common_o signify_v all_o particular_n and_o therefore_o to_o restrict_n it_o in_o respect_n of_o god_n grace_n and_o mercy_n through_o christ_n savour_v of_o a_o narrow_a spirit_n and_o this_o narrowness_n of_o spirit_n in_o presbyterian_o and_o independent_o be_v a_o great_a evil_n in_o they_o and_o make_v they_o so_o peevish_a uncharitable_a and_o cruel_a 2._o and_o whereas_o they_o object_n against_o christ_n his_o die_v for_o all_o man_n because_o he_o say_v he_o do_v not_o pray_v for_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o die_v for_o the_o world_n john_n 17.9_o i_o pray_v for_o they_o i_o pray_v

of_o the_o world_n it_o be_v only_o with_o respect_n to_o sin_n past_a or_o any_o other_o sin_n that_o man_n may_v commit_v before_o the_o precise_a time_n and_o period_n of_o god_n leave_v they_o
