the_o thing_n i_o be_o speak_v of_o namely_o the_o strike_v up_o of_o the_o covenant_n between_o god_n and_o christ_n in_o eternity_n its_o clear_a the_o prophecy_n do_v run_v upon_o christ_n and_z in_o the_o two_o first_o verse_n as_o he_o conceive_v the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v bring_v in_o declare_v how_o that_o his_o father_n have_v call_v he_o and_o what_o work_n his_o father_n have_v put_v

three_o verse_n the_o lord_n come_v and_o he_o do_v offer_v to_o jesus_n christ_n as_o his_o reward_n and_o wage_n israel_n thou_o be_v my_o servant_n o_o israel_n in_o who_o i_o will_v be_v glorify_v now_o as_o the_o say_a person_n observe_v christ_n consider_v that_o these_o be_v but_o a_o handful_n &_o that_o they_o will_v many_o of_o they_o stand_v out_o against_o he_o and_o oppose_v he_o he_o thereupon_o complain_v my_o labour_n be_v in_o vain_a and_o i_o have_v spend_v my_o strength_n for_o nought_o and_o in_o vain_a if_o this_o be_v all_o my_o reward_n for_o my_o work_n in_o die_v if_o

more_o full_o to_o christ_n indeed_o here_o be_v the_o very_a conclusion_n the_o result_n of_o all_o that_o do_v pass_v betwixt_o the_o father_n &_o the_o son_n now_o observe_v among_o those_o thing_n that_o the_o lord_n do_v promise_v to_o the_o son_n this_o be_v one_o that_o he_o shall_v have_v a_o kingdom_n in_o the_o 7_o verse_n thus_o say_v the_o lord_n the_o redeemer_n of_o israel_n and_o his_o holy_a one_o to_o he_o who_o man_n despise_v to_o he_o who_o the_o nation_n abhor_v to_o a_o servant_n of_o ruler_n king_n shall_v see_v and_o arise_v prince_n also_o shall_v worship_v because_o of_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v faithful_a and_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n and_o he_o shall_v choose_v thou_o this_o be_v one_o great_a thing_n which_o be_v promise_v by_o the_o father_n to_o the_o son_n and_o that_o from_o eternity_n namely_o a_o kingdom_n that_o christ_n shall_v have_v a_o kingdom_n wherein_o king_n shall_v worship_v he_o wherein_o prince_n shall_v fall_v down_o before_o

before_o time_n and_o so_o the_o lord_n have_v assurance_n of_o the_o kingdom_n wherein_o king_n shall_v fall_v down_o and_o worship_v he_o and_o that_o in_o eternity_n but_o more_o clear_o isai_n 53.10_o 11_o 12_o ver_fw-la where_o we_o have_v likewise_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v betwixt_o god_n and_o christ_n the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n and_o the_o term_n and_o condition_n of_o either_o party_n jesus_n christ_n for_o his_o part_n he_o be_v content_a that_o god_n shall_v bruise_v he_o and_o to_o be_v grieve_v and_o that_o his_o soul_n shall_v become_v a_o

justify_v many_o and_o the_o like_a but_o observe_v among_o other_o one_o special_a thing_n that_o the_o father_n promise_n be_v that_o christ_n shall_v have_v a_o portion_n with_o the_o great_a and_o shall_v divide_v the_o spoil_n with_o the_o strong_a this_o of_o all_o other_o be_v the_o great_a promise_n quest_n now_o the_o question_n may_v be_v what_o be_v we_o to_o understand_v by_o god_n divide_v to_o christ_n a_o portion_n with_o the_o great_a and_o the_o spoil_n with_o the_o strong_a answ_n why_o sure_o these_o word_n they_o can_v be_v mean_v only_o of_o christ_n spiritual_a triumph_n over_o his_o enemy_n and_o christ_n spiritual_a reward_n because_o these_o word_n they_o be_v bring_v in_o as_o the_o reward_n the_o father_n give_v he_o for_o his_o suffering_n because_o he_o pour_v out_o his_o soul_n unto_o death_n and_o be_v number_v with_o the_o transgressor_n and_o bear_v the_o sin_n of_o many_o therefore_o will_v i_o divide_v he_o a_o portion_n with_o the_o great_a and_o he_o shall_v divide_v the_o spoil_n with_o the_o strong_a therefore_o it_o can_v be_v a_o spiritual_a reward_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o reward_n the_o father_n give_v to_o the_o son_n must_v be_v equivolent_a unto_o his_o suffering_n for_o the_o father_n will_v not_o give_v unto_o his_o son_n a_o reward_n that_o be_v short_a of_o his_o suffering_n this_o be_v to_o look_v upon_o god_n as_o straight_o hand_v when_o jesus_n christ_n have_v do_v his_o work_n to_o give_v a_o reward_n short_a of_o his_o work_n therefore_o the_o reward_n must_v be_v as_o large_a as_o his_o suffering_n now_o look_v upon_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n and_o they_o be_v of_o two_o sort_n there_o be_v spiritual_a suffering_n and_o that_o in_o undergo_a that_o bitter_a agony_n he_o undergo_v in_o the_o garden_n in_o encounter_v all_o the_o sore_a temptation_n of_o satan_n and_o all_o the_o frown_n of_o his_o father_n upon_o the_o cross_n here_o be_v abundance_n of_o spiritual_a

engage_v to_o restore_v they_o and_o for_o that_o he_o do_v engage_v his_o covenant_n if_o so_o be_v that_o my_o covenant_n be_v not_o firm_a then_o say_v he_o may_v i_o cast_v away_o jacob_n and_o
