Sure none can once Imagine that this Covenant was the Covenant of Grace: Also what doth the Apostle mean when he says, cast out the Bond Woman and her Son, Gal. 4. 30.

In Page 7. Mr. Shute repeats. Gen. 17. 7. And I will establish my Covenant between me and thee, and thy Seed after thee in their Generations for an everlasting Covenant, to be a God to thee and to thy Seed after thee.
Here he leaves out the following verse, wherein the Covenant is Mentioned (which he charges as an high crime in others) viz. this is my Covenant, which ye shall keep between me, and you, and thy Seed after thee; every Man-Child among you shall be circumcised. Verse 10. and ye shall circumcise the Flesh of your Fore-skin, and it shall be a token of the Covenant betwixt me and you, verse 11.
