whether_o they_o be_v but_o seventy_o male_n in_o all_o to_o wave_v the_o question_n whether_o they_o be_v so_o many_o for_o some_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o some_o of_o iacob_n son_n son_n be_v

side_n and_o first_o that_o they_o be_v but_o seventy_o precise_o or_o thereabouts_o as_o saint_n t_o stephen_n reckon_v for_o 7.14_o first_o i._n it_o be_v safe_a to_o keep_v to_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o scripture_n in_o historical_a passage_n especial_o and_o not_o to_o wiredraw_v it_o or_o extend_v it_o more_o than_o needs_o for_o fear_n of_o wrest_v or_o of_o worse_a consequence_n that_o may_v be_v draw_v from_o more_o remote_a construction_n than_o from_o the_o very_a word_n now_o of_o jacob_n and_o his_o son_n it_o be_v express_o say_v 42._o first_o that_o jacob_n send_v his_o ten_o son_n and_o no_o more_o into_o egypt_n to_o buy_v corn_n by_o which_o it_o may_v seem_v that_o he_o have_v no_o such_o number_n to_o spare_v as_o have_v be_v suggest_v or_o that_o his_o son_n be_v but_o as_o the_o rest_n by_o the_o errand_n that_o they_o go_v on_o 2._o second_o when_o joseph_n return_v their_o money_n it_o be_v to_o every_o man_n in_o the_o mouth_n of_o his_o sack_n and_o be_v

because_o it_o seem_v they_o be_v no_o more_o 3_o three_o their_o deal_n be_v for_o little_a since_o so_o few_o ass_n can_v carry_v what_o they_o come_v for_o and_o their_o sack_n not_o so_o full_a

slight_v three_o that_o in_o such_o historical_a passage_n of_o scripture_n as_o do_v veil_n or_o be_v enveloped_v with_o a_o mystery_n we_o be_v in_o a_o manner_n 23._o direct_v to_o a_o further_a indagation_n by_o saint_n t_o paul_n where_o he_o tell_v we_o what_o else_o we_o shall_v have_v hardly_o find_v that_o one_o of_o abraham_n son_n by_o a_o bondmaid_n and_o another_o by_o a_o free_a

first_o 1._o it_o be_v still_o to_o be_v remember_v that_o it_o be_v above_o two_o hundred_o and_o ten_o year_n since_o abram_n arm_v three_o hundred_o and_o eighteen_o train_a servant_n bear_v in_o

such_o a_o incredible_a number_n as_o the_o possibility_n have_v be_v demonstrate_v what_o may_v we_o think_v of_o three_o hundred_o and_o eighteen_o more_o in_o the_o same_o family_n partaker_n of_o the_o like_a blessing_n so_o far_o as_o their_o increase_n be_v the_o increase_n of_o abraham_n wealth_n and_o strength_n but_o not_o to_o be_v entangle_v with_o too_o many_o difficulty_n to_o think_v modesty_n jacob_n can_v scarce_o have_v less_o than_o a_o thousand_o soul_n within_o his_o tent_n second_o but_o why_o then_o do_v he_o send_v his_o ten_o son_n only_o with_o their_o ten_o ass_n to_o buy_v corn_n for_o they_o all_o can_v they_o bring_v enough_o or_o do_v they_o only_o bring_v for_o iacob_n own_o tent_n and_o leave_v the_o rest_n to_o live_v on_o root_n or_o nut_n and_o almond_n with_o which_o it_o seem_v by_o the_o present_a that_o the_o land_n abound_v you_o must_v remember_v ioseph_n dream_n 9_o that_o their_o sheaf_n shall_v do_v obeisance_n to_o his_o sheaf_n and_o the_o

and_o when_o the_o famine_n come_v in_o all_o part_n 42.1_o jacob_n hear_v that_o there_o be_v corn_n in_o egypt_n for_o joseph_n have_v gather_v corn_n as_o the_o sand_n of_o the_o sea_n very_o

you_o may_v know_v he_o send_v his_o ten_o son_n and_o not_o his_o servant_n to_o do_v their_o obeisance_n for_o corn_n but_o not_o without_o attendance_n as_o we_o may_v easy_o collect_v from_o
