One place I shall add more, wherein our intendment is positively expressed,1 beyond all possibility of any colourable evasion, especially considering the Explication, Enlargement, and Application, which in other places it hath received. The place intended is Jeremiah 32. v. 38, 39, 40. They shall be my People, and I will be their God; and I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and their Children after them, and I will make an everlasting Covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them to do them good, but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me; in conjunction with those words of the same importance. Ch. 31. v: 31, 32, 33. Behold the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new Covenant with the house of Israel, and the house of Judah, not according to the Covenant that I made with their Fathers; but this shall be my Covenant, that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my Law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my People, and they shall teach no more every man his Neighbour, and every man his Brother, saying, Know the Lord; for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, saith the Lord, for I will forgive their iniquities, and remember their sins no more.
