man_n be_v far_o great_a than_o the_o evil_n on_o the_o body_n though_o it_o be_v famine_n and_o pestilence_n because_o the_o evil_n that_o be_v upon_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n they_o be_v simple_o evil_a thing_n and_o such_o as_o in_o themselves_o do_v make_v man_n subject_a to_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o power_n of_o the_o devil_n which_o no_o other_o outward_a misery_n can_v do_v of_o

doubtless_o this_o we_o may_v resolve_v upon_o that_o the_o evil_n that_o be_v upon_o the_o heart_n and_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v especial_o to_o be_v grieve_v for_o use_v this_o concern_v every_o

because_o they_o be_v the_o child_n of_o the_o promise_n in_o this_o nine_o verse_n he_o confirm_v it_o by_o a_o testimony_n of_o scripture_n that_o isaac_n be_v a_o child_n of_o the_o promise_n

which_o now_o i_o allege_v which_o be_v the_o speech_n of_o god_n to_o abraham_n it_o be_v a_o promissory_a sentence_n a_o word_n of_o promise_n promise_v a_o special_a mercy_n a_o special_a

his_o meaning_n be_v when_o this_o time_n of_o the_o year_n shall_v come_v and_o revive_v and_o come_v again_o even_o in_o plain_a term_n this_o time_n twelve_o month_n as_o in_o gen._n 17._o where_o

have_v a_o child_n beget_v and_o bear_v of_o her_o own_o body_n come_v we_o to_o the_o observation_n and_o in_o that_o the_o apostle_n here_o allege_v a_o sentence_n and_o place_n of_o scripture_n do_v not_o bare_o deliver_v the_o word_n of_o scripture_n but_o he_o put_v it_o out_o with_o this_o note_n this_o be_v a_o word_n of_o promise_n in_o that_o he_o tell_v we_o plain_o that_o the_o

and_o in_o this_o argument_n he_o continue_v from_o this_o 14._o verse_n to_o the_o 19_o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n now_o in_o this_o 14_o verse_n our_o apostle_n prevent_v a_o false_a inference_n

the_o number_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n be_v a_o exceed_a great_a number_n a_o numberless_a multitude_n yet_o but_o a_o few_o of_o they_o shall_v return_v from_o the_o captivity_n of_o

to_o bring_v that_o sinful_a nation_n of_o the_o jew_n to_o a_o very_a small_a remnant_n and_o number_n yea_o finish_v the_o great_a work_n of_o their_o consumption_n speedy_o and_o extend_v it_o so_o far_o as_o that_o a_o small_a number_n shall_v be_v leave_v for_o the_o lord_n will_v finish_v his_o work_n in_o the_o very_a heart_n and_o midst_n and_o principal_a part_n of_o the_o land_n thus_o we_o be_v to_o conceive_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o prophet_n excite_v by_o the_o apostle_n come_v we_o now_o to_o instruction_n first_o of_o all_o observe_v we_o that_o the_o apostle_n here_o bring_v in_o the_o prophet_n esayias_n speak_v not_o bare_o of_o the_o rejection_n of_o the_o jew_n but_o also_o cry_v of_o it_o speak_v with_o the_o extension_n of_o his_o voice_n he_o speak_v bold_o plain_o and_o to_o the_o purpose_n proclaim_v it_o to_o the_o purpose_n that_o though_o their_o number_n be_v never_o so_o great_a even_o as_o the_o sand_n upon_o the_o sea_n shore_n he_o will_v destroy_v they_o though_o doubtless_o this_o be_v a_o very_a harsh_a and_o unpleasing_a message_n yea_o the_o deliver_n of_o it_o be_v like_a to_o bring_v many_o about_o his_o ear_n what_o esaias_n shall_v few_o of_o we_o be_v save_v yet_o we_o see_v the_o prophet_n esaias_n utter_v it_o bold_o without_o fear_n or_o faint_a i_o tell_v you_o to_o your_o face_n that_o though_o your_o number_n be_v as_o the_o sea_n shore_n yet_o but_o a_o few_o of_o you_o shall_v be_v save_v see_v how_o bold_a and_o plain_a the_o prophet_n be_v in_o deliver_v this_o message_n so_o harsh_a and_o hard_o hence_o we_o may_v observe_v this_o instruction_n viz._n doct._n that_o minister_n and_o preacher_n of_o the_o word_n in_o execute_v their_o office_n and_o ministry_n with_o plainness_n and_o boldness_n must_v deliver_v the_o message_n of_o god_n to_o the_o people_n though_o they_o seem_v never_o so_o harsh_a or_o hard_o or_o rather_o thus_o that_o it_o be_v the_o part_n and_o duty_n of_o minister_n to_o be_v plain_a that_o it_o be_v the_o part_n and_o duty_n of_o minister_n to_o be_v plain_a and_o bold_a with_o their_o hearer_n and_o to_o tell_v they_o of_o the_o estate_n and_o danger_n that_o they_o see_v and_o discern_v they_o to_o be_v in_o upon_o good_a ground_n without_o fear_n or_o faint_a though_o their_o hearer_n fret_v and_o storm_n and_o fly_v in_o their_o face_n yet_o they_o must_v be_v bold_a and_o plain_a as_o in_o esay_n 58.1_o cry_v aloud_o say_v the_o lord_n spare_v not_o lift_v up_o thy_o voice_n like_o a_o trumpet_n tell_v my_o people_n of_o their_o transgression_n and_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n their_o sin_n see_v how_o earnest_a the_o lord_n be_v be_v thou_o bold_a cry_v out_o and_o tell_v my_o people_n of_o their_o transgression_n and_o the_o danger_n which_o they_o be_v in_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o sin_n though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o much_o incense_v and_o in_o matthew_n 3._o from_o the_o seven_o to_o the_o thirteen_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o john_n the_o baptist_n deal_v thus_o roundly_o with_o the_o people_n oh_o generation_n of_o viper_n a_o viperous_a brood_n how_o will_v you_o escape_v the_o damnation_n of_o hell_n and_o fly_v

shall_v be_v hew_v down_o with_o the_o axe_n of_o god_n vengeance_n and_o throw_v into_o the_o fire_n nay_o they_o shall_v be_v as_o chaff_n burn_v with_o unquenchable_a fire_n thus_o also_o deal_v
