10 Whosoever are under the works.) It is an argument or reason of contraries: for out of one fountain doth not spring hot & cold. The Law doth shut in all men under the curse. in vain than out of it is blessing sought. He calleth them that are under the works of the Law. those that do place their confidence of salvation in them. for these manners of speaking ought always to be referred to the state of the question. for we know that he disputeth or reasoneth here of the cause of righteousness. They therefore that will be justified by the works of the law, he pronounceth them all to be under the curse. but how doth he prove it? It is the sentence of the law, That all they which transgress any part of the law are accursed Deu. 17.16. Now let us see whether there be any one man that satisfieth the law. but it is evident that there is not one found, neither can be found. therefore all, small and great are (in this place condemned). Here want the Minor and Conclusion (of the agreement): for this were the whole Syllogismus.
