of_o thorn_n and_o a_o purple_a garment_n and_o pilate_n say_v unto_o they_o behold_v the_o man_n verse_n 6_o then_o when_o the_o high_a priest_n and_o officer_n see_v he_o they_o cry_v say_v

suffering_n of_o christ_n under_o pontius_n pilate_n the_o roman_a governor_n who_o abode_n in_o jerusalem_n we_o have_v hear_v of_o two_o accusation_n that_o be_v lay_v against_o the_o innocent_a jesus_n christ_n the_o first_o be_v that_o he_o call_v himself_o the_o king_n of_o the_o jew_n &_o so_o be_v guilty_a of_o treason_n against_o caesar_n you_o hear_v the_o effect_n of_o this_o accusation_n to_o be_v nothing_o and_o therefore_o he_o go_v forth_o and_o with_o his_o voice_n before_o they_o all_o purge_v the_o innocent_a in_o the_o next_o accusation_n there_o be_v many_o thing_n lay_v to_o his_o charge_n and_o this_o chief_o that_o he_o have_v corrupt_v the_o whole_a country_n from_o galilee_n to_o jerusalem_n with_o false_a doctrine_n now_o when_o this_o be_v try_v pilate_n yet_o hold_v he_o innocent_a in_o testify_v his_o innocence_n and_o therefore_o he_o seek_v yet_o to_o get_v he_o set_v at_o liberty_n out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o consider_v that_o the_o jew_n at_o the_o passeover_n be_v accustom_v to_o seek_v the_o liberty_n of_o a_o prisoner_n who_o be_v guilty_a of_o a_o capital_a crime_n he_o use_v this_o opportunity_n and_o ask_v of_o they_o whether_o they_o will_v have_v jesus_n or_o barrabas_n set_v at_o liberty_n we_o hear_v the_o answer_n to_o this_o proposition_n to_o wit_n they_o cry_v they_o will_v not_o have_v he_o deliver_v but_o barrabas_n now_o the_o other_o evangelist_n do_v insist_v more_o large_o in_o this_o purpose_n and_o write_v more_o of_o it_o and_o they_o report_v that_o pilate_n when_o he_o hear_v this_o word_n he_o ask_v what_o shall_v i_o do_v with_o jesus_n they_o cry_v all_o with_o one_o voice_n crucify_v he_o pilate_n the_o three_o time_n hear_v this_o he_o cleanse_v the_o innocent_a yet_o they_o report_v more_o that_o while_o pilate_n be_v sit_v in_o judgement_n there_o come_v a_o messenger_n from_o his_o wife_n and_o say_v have_v nothing_o ado_n with_o this_o innocent_a man_n why_o for_o i_o have_v be_v trouble_v for_o he_o in_o my_o sleep_n this_o be_v a_o advertisement_n sharp_a enough_o unto_o he_o and_z the_o lord_n want_v not_o his_o own_o work_n therein_o for_o the_o lord_n bring_v this_o to_o pass_v partly_o in_o respect_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o his_o innocence_n may_v clearelie_o appear_v before_o the_o world_n and_o that_o he_o may_v receive_v a_o testimony_n of_o his_o innocence_n from_o they_o who_o have_v little_a regard_n unto_o it_o for_o have_v not_o jesus_n be_v innocent_a we_o have_v be_v little_a the_o better_a of_o he_o for_o he_o can_v not_o have_v justify_v we_o for_o ere_o our_o faith_n rest_n on_o he_o we_o must_v have_v the_o full_a assurance_n of_o his_o innocence_n partly_o in_o respect_n of_o pilate_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v convert_v or_o make_v unexcusable_a if_o he_o will_v go_v forward_o the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v wonderful_a in_o the_o reprobate_n for_o ere_o that_o decree_n of_o their_o

he_o invite_v the_o reprobate_a to_o repentance_n yea_o ere_o he_o put_v they_o in_o hell_n he_o will_v invite_v they_o to_o heaven_n there_o be_v not_o a_o reprobate_n that_o perish_v in_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n but_o ere_o he_o utter_v his_o justice_n towards_o they_o he_o will_v utter_v his_o mercy_n in_o warn_v they_o to_o repent_v we_o come_v brethren_n to_o our_o text_n he_o follow_v out_o the_o suffering_n in_o these_o word_n which_o we_o have_v read_v he_o tell_v we_o how_o earnest_o pilate_n seek_v the_o liberty_n of_o jesus_n and_o he_o let_v we_o see_v the_o mean_n that_o pilate_n use_v to_o set_v jesus_n at_o liberty_n first_o he_o take_v he_o out_o and_o scourge_v he_o &_o put_v he_o out_o to_o be_v mock_v think_v that_o this_o will_v satisfy_v the_o jew_n and_o then_o the_o four_o time_n he_o profess_v his_o innocence_n then_o he_o bring_v he_o out_o to_o they_o with_o a_o crown_n of_o thorn_n and_o a_o purple_a garment_n think_v that_o he_o shall_v have_v content_v and_o move_v the_o jew_n to_o pity_n but_o all_o be_v in_o vain_a it_o be_v say_v pilate_n take_v jesus_n and_o scourge_v he_o and_o not_o content_a with_o this_o command_v his_o soldier_n to_o put_v a_o crown_n of_o thorn_n upon_o his_o head_n and_o a_o purple_a garment_n on_o he_o to_o scorn_v the_o kingdom_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o then_o smite_v he_o with_o rod_n you_o see_v the_o lord_n suffer_v mock_v &_o pain_n in_o body_n the_o lord_n of_o glory_n be_v put_v to_o ignominy_n consider_v well_o &_o let_v it_o never_o go_v out_o of_o thy_o mind_n that_o the_o lord_n of_o glory_n suffer_v such_o shame_n for_o thy_o cause_n but_o to_o examine_v this_o fact_n of_o pilate_n this_o be_v commendable_a that_o he_o speak_v so_o to_o get_v the_o innocent_a jesus_n set_v at_o liberty_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a that_o he_o use_v he_o fail_v very_o far_o you_o shall_v mark_v this_o in_o profane_a and_o ungodly_a man_n that_o one_o of_o these_o two_o thing_n fall_v out_o if_o not_o both_o either_o they_o shall_v not_o take_v in_o hand_n a_o good_a and_o godly_a purpose_n or_o else_o if_o any_o time_n it_o fall_v out_o that_o they_o enterprise_n any_o good_a deed_n that_o they_o shall_v choose_v ungodly_a &_o unlawful_a mean_n to_o affectuate_v it_o they_o shall_v do_v evil_a that_o good_a may_v come_v of_o it_o cast_v your_o eye_n upon_o this_o land_n &_o you_o shall_v see_v this_o to_o be_v true_a yet_o let_v we_o search_v up_o the_o ground_n of_o this_o proceed_n of_o pilate_n it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o he_o have_v a_o good_a purpose_n and_o deed_n in_o hand_n but_o it_o be_v as_o true_a again_o that_o as_o he_o have_v a_o good_a deed_n in_o hand_n he_o look_v not_o upon_o it_o with_o a_o upright_o eye_n he_o have_v not_o god_n nor_o his_o glory_n before_o his_o eye_n for_o his_o conscience_n rather_o than_o any_o regard_n to_o god_n glory_n or_o his_o will_n move_v he_o to_o purpose_n to_o loose_v he_o thou_o must_v not_o propone_v only_o to_o do_v good_a but_o also_o thou_o must_v propone_v it_o for_o god_n cause_n and_o for_o his_o glory_n pilate_n have_v no_o respect_n to_o god_n go_v astray_o and_o out_o of_o the_o way_n this_o be_v certain_a brethren_n if_o the_o purpose_n be_v never_o so_o good_a and_o if_o thou_o have_v not_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n before_o thy_o eye_n thou_o shall_v waver_v but_o by_o the_o contrary_a that_o man_n that_o have_v respect_n unto_o the_o lord_n he_o shall_v not_o ready_o waver_v but_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n shall_v glance_v before_o he_o as_o a_o lantern_n into_o his_o way_n until_o he_o prosecute_v that_o deed_n bless_a be_v he_o that_o have_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n before_o he_o there_o be_v no_o light_n to_o bring_v we_o through_o this_o thorny_a way_n but_o only_o the_o glory_n of_o our_o god_n next_o i_o see_v in_o this_o fact_n in_o follow_v out_o the_o mean_n that_o he_o

the_o lord_n of_o glory_n send_v a_o angel_n to_o tell_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o these_o woman_n so_o in_o very_a deed_n the_o angel_n be_v a_o witness_n before_o the_o woman_n but_o the_o woman_n before_o the_o man_n always_o the_o angel_n that_o come_v from_o heaven_n he_o be_v a_o honourable_a ambassador_n the_o bless_a angel_n be_v very_o glorious_a &_o no_o question_n the_o lord_n will_v have_v his_o resurrection_n first_o witness_v by_o so_o glorious_a a_o ambassador_n he_o will_v not_o have_v man_n to_o testify_v first_o of_o it_o but_o he_o will_v have_v a_o

than_o they_o can_v give_v to_o it_o well_o if_o the_o preach_n of_o y_fw-fr e_o gospel_n the_o testify_a of_o jesus_n &_o his_o resurrection_n honour_v the_o angel_n shall_v we_o
think_v that_o any_o man_n in_o earth_n be_v too_o good_a to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n no_o if_o thou_o were_v a_o king_n it_o be_v a_o great_a honour_n to_o thou_o that_o thou_o shall_v have_v grace_n to_o speak_v of_o his_o bless_a name_n well_o brethren_n as_o the_o ambassador_n be_v glorious_a &_o the_o message_n be_v glorious_a so_o y_o ●_o commission_n be_v the_o joyful_a

have_v come_v otherwise_o he_o may_v have_v come_v fair_a and_o soft_o and_o in_o more_o quiet_a manner_n i_o answer_v to_o this_o the_o lord_n look_v not_o so_o much_o to_o the_o angel_n or_o the_o

by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n now_o to_o go_v forward_o when_o this_o angel_n come_v down_o first_o we_o have_v what_o he_o do_v then_o we_o have_v a_o fair_a description_n of_o this_o angel_n the_o first_o thing_n he_o do_v be_v he_o go_v to_o the_o grave_n and_o roll_v away_o the_o stone_n from_o the_o door_n you_o will_v think_v this_o be_v but_o a_o sober_a and_o servile_a office_n to_o so_o

mark_v and_o compare_v the_o burial_n with_o his_o glorious_a resurrection_n in_o his_o burial_n he_o keep_v the_o godhead_n close_o for_o if_o either_o in_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n or_o in_o his_o burial_n that_o godhead_n shall_v have_v utter_v itself_o he_o can_v neither_o have_v die_v nor_o yet_o have_v be_v bury_v for_o the_o godhead_n can_v neither_o die_v nor_o be_v bury_v but_o in_o the_o resurrection_n the_o godhead_n that_o dwell_v in_o he_o bodily_a break_v out_o and_o raise_v the_o stone_n upon_o this_o difference_n there_o follow_v another_o in_o his_o burial_n the_o

roll_v the_o stone_n to_o the_o door_n of_o the_o grave_n but_o when_o it_o come_v to_o his_o glorious_a resurrection_n in_o the_o which_o that_o godhead_n that_o before_o keep_v itself_o close_o break_v out_o he_o use_v not_o the_o ministry_n of_o man_n but_o of_o a_o glorious_a angel_n a_o angel_n roll_n away_o the_o stone_n as_o it_o be_v with_o his_o own_o hand_n now_o this_o let_v we_o see_v how_o high_o and_o honourable_o we_o shall_v think_v of_o this_o glorious_a resurrection_n it_o be_v true_a the_o lord_n in_o his_o burial_n be_v honourable_a but_o he_o be_v far_o more_o honourable_a in_o his_o resurrection_n for_o the_o honour_n that_o he_o have_v in_o his_o burial_n be_v but_o a_o worldly_a honour_n but_o in_o his_o resurrection_n he_o have_v a_o heavenly_a honour_n indeed_o joseph_n and_o nicodemus_n who_o bury_v he_o be_v two_o honourable_a man_n but_o a_o angel_n be_v a_o hundred_o time_n more_o honourable_a and_o glorious_a than_o any_o man_n albeit_o he_o be_v a_o king_n or_o caesar_n himself_o and_o so_o the_o lord_n in_o his_o burial_n utter_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o lord_n over_o man_n but_o in_o his_o glorious_a resurrection_n he_o utter_v himself_o even_o in_o our_o nature_n not_o only_o to_o be_v lord_n of_o man_n but_o also_o of_o angel_n so_o brethren_n all_o tend_v to_o this_o to_o let_v we_o see_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o

here_o we_o shall_v never_o see_v glory_n hereafter_o but_o before_o i_o leave_v this_o i_o see_v that_o in_o the_o roll_a away_o of_o the_o stone_n the_o lord_n have_v a_o respect_n to_o the_o

the_o lord_n will_v help_v they_o that_o seek_v he_o seek_v the_o lord_n where_o ever_o he_o be_v seek_v the_o lord_n in_o the_o grave_n seek_v the_o lord_n in_o the_o heaven_n and_o thou_o shall_v

thou_o shall_v find_v in_o experience_n that_o the_o lord_n shall_v send_v his_o angel_n before_o thou_o and_o prepare_v thing_n before_o thy_o come_n and_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o some_o of_o you_o

to_o testify_v that_o christ_n be_v rise_v in_o glory_n the_o first_o witness_n of_o his_o death_n and_o burial_n be_v man_n and_o woman_n but_o the_o first_o witness_n of_o his_o glorious_a

the_o sight_n of_o the_o emptiness_n of_o the_o grave_n may_v have_v be_v a_o sufficient_a testimony_n to_o they_o of_o christ_n resurrection_n consider_v the_o forewarn_v they_o have_v before_o to_o
