the_o throne_n of_o his_o father_n david_n whether_o ever_o christ_n yet_o have_v these_o scripture_n make_v good_a unto_o he_o be_v worth_a your_o serious_a consideration_n be_v christ_n ever_o yet_o

it_o out_o in_o two_o or_o three_o particular_n 1_o here_o be_v hold_v out_o unto_o we_o the_o two_o nature_n of_o christ_n his_o godhead_n his_o divine_a nature_n and_o his_o human_a nature_n the_o

the_o offspring_n of_o david_n and_o david_n lie_v between_o both_o so_o here_o christ_n human_a nature_n in_o the_o offspring_n the_o divine_a nature_n in_o the_o root_n and_o christ_n mediator_n lie_v between_o both_o for_o there_o must_v be_v a_o concurrence_n of_o divine_a and_o human_a nature_n to_o impersonate_v christ_n to_o be_v a_o mediator_n which_o here_o be_v hold_v out_o unto_o the_o world_n in_o the_o last_o declaration_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n i_o be_o god_n and_o i_o uphold_v you_o i_o uphold_v david_n and_o his_o kingdom_n and_o i_o be_o the_o offspring_n

and_o so_o we_o may_v see_v the_o truth_n reality_n and_o certainty_n of_o scripture_n joh._n 4.7_o have_v not_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o christ_n come_v of_o the_o seed_n of_o david_n and_o

and_o give_v they_o light_n and_o they_o depend_v upon_o he_o for_o light_n and_o so_o all_o the_o saint_n depend_v upon_o god_n and_o christ_n for_o light_n and_o if_o god_n do_v but_o withdraw_v

a_o morning_n star_n quest_n but_o now_o a_o question_n here_o if_o christ_n be_v a_o bright_a and_o a_o morning_n star_n why_o do_v so_o few_o follow_v the_o light_n of_o this_o star_n and_o so_o

o_o that_o i_o can_v keep_v thy_o statute_n here_o be_v a_o conformity_n now_o between_o god_n and_o the_o soul_n that_o be_v athirst_a say_v god_n in_o psal_n 27._o seek_v you_o my_o face_n my_o

spiritual_a thirst_n do_v cause_n man_n to_o thirst_n after_o god_n for_o himself_o and_o christ_n for_o himself_o many_o do_v thirst_n after_o god_n not_o for_o himself_o but_o for_o themselves_o they_o thirst_v after_o the_o loaf_n they_o thirst_v after_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n as_o many_o seek_v to_o be_v in_o great_a service_n to_o be_v in_o great_a man_n house_n and_o court_n that_o

to_o david_n and_o to_o solomon_n but_o not_o out_o of_o love_n to_o david_n or_o solomon_n but_o to_o save_v his_o life_n so_o many_o come_v to_o god_n that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v from_o hell_n

o_o it_o can_v bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n and_o that_o be_v a_o burden_n to_o it_o and_o it_o belong_v to_o be_v fruitful_a and_o thirst_v to_o receive_v some_o influence_n of_o grace_n some_o
