Gospel reconciliation, or, Christ's trumpet of peace to the world

We must take heed that antiquity never so prevail with us, no, not any old prophet, but though we must not be led into error through our respect unto them, yet still keep our reverential respect towards them, especially you that be Children, reverence you your old parents, in Prov. 23.22. there is a charge, hearken to thy father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother when she is old; Hear thy Father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother, because they being weaker are more ready to be despised, therefore God giveth a charge that none must despise their mothers when they are old.

Even Esau himself that was so wicked, yet he would seem to give some respect unto his old father Isaac, as in Genesis. 18.8. And Esau seeing that the daughters of Canaan pleased not Isaac his Father, then went Esau to Ishmael, and took unto the wives that he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abraham's Son &c.
