and_o that_o he_o mean_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o both_o place_n if_o both_o be_v right_o understand_v for_o i_o make_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o a_o spiritual_a and_o a_o eternal_a punishment_n that_o god_n will_v eternal_o punish_v the_o child_n for_o the_o father_n sin_n i_o utter_o deny_v but_o that_o he_o will_v spiritual_o punish_v the_o child_n for_o the_o father_n sin_n i_o see_v neither_o place_n deny_v it_o for_o as_o here_o he_o do_v not_o say_v that_o he_o will_v eternal_o punish_v the_o child_n for_o his_o father_n sin_n so_o there_o he_o do_v not_o say_v that_o he_o will_v no_o way_n spiritual_o punish_v the_o child_n for_o the_o parent_n fault_n but_o as_o here_o his_o meaning_n be_v not_o that_o he_o will_v inflict_v any_o positive_a evil_n upon_o the_o son_n of_o the_o wicked_a for_o the_o wickedness_n of_o their_o parent_n but_o that_o for_o the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o parent_n he_o will_v shut_v his_o hand_n and_o withhold_v his_o grace_n from_o their_o child_n and_o so_o willing_o and_o just_o suffer_v they_o to_o commit_v the_o like_a or_o worse_a sin_n than_o their_o father_n do_v because_o we_o be_v all_o natural_o bear_v in_o sin_n incline_v and_o prone_a to_o all_o evil_a if_o god_n do_v not_o by_o his_o sanctify_a and_o prevent_v grace_n preserve_v we_o we_o shall_v be_v sure_a enough_o of_o ourselves_o without_o any_o

his_o meaning_n be_v not_o to_o deny_v the_o withhold_a of_o his_o grace_n from_o the_o child_n of_o the_o wicked_a which_o be_v all_o that_o here_o he_o threaten_v but_o that_o he_o will_v not_o

privative_a punishment_n of_o deny_v his_o grace_n unto_o they_o for_o their_o father_n sin_n shall_v be_v inflict_v upon_o they_o and_o that_o suffer_v of_o we_o to_o sin_n or_o not_o hinder_v of_o we_o to_o sin_n just_o inflict_v upon_o we_o for_o our_o father_n sin_n be_v a_o most_o lamentable_a and_o a_o most_o fearful_a thing_n because_o such_o child_n so_o just_o refuse_v to_o be_v help_v by_o god_n and_o so_o deserve_o leave_v in_o the_o council_n of_o their_o own_o hand_n shall_v be_v sure_a of_o sin_n enough_o of_o their_o own_o to_o be_v plague_v for_o that_o they_o shall_v never_o

and_o so_o you_o see_v how_o god_n visit_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n and_o yet_o punish_v every_o man_n but_o for_o his_o own_o sin_n the_o first_o he_o do_v by_o a_o
