§ 18 These are the Precepts which they gather out of the Law, as Affirmatively expressed. That some of them are by no means rightly educed from those Texts which they draw them from, will appear at first view unto him that shall examine them. It is also justly questionable, whether sundry of them be indeed Precepts of God or no, especially as by them explained. But that this is the just number of the Affirmative Precepts of the Law, that there are no more of that kind, and that these are all so many distinct precepts, is vain to imagine. Only whereas in general, the most of the particular commands that belong unto the same things, are gathered by them into certain heads, wherein they are summarily represented, I thought not unmeet to give them here in their order.
§ 20 The First Family of these Precepts relates unto False Worship, concerning which they gather up forty seven Prohibitions. 1. That we have no other God but Jehovah, Exod. 20.3. 2.

That a woman wear not the apparel of a man. 40. That a man wear not the apparel of a woman, Deut. 22.5. 41.

It is evident that in this Family, many Precepts are distinguished, and the number § 21 multiplied thereby. In particular, the second command is divided into two, or three, which God makes to be but one; and general rules are made particular prohibitions, all to fill up the number which they had designed. However, most things, as we observed before, belonging to this general head, are brought into this collection.
The second Family concerns separation from the Heathen, in thirteen Prohibitions. § 22 1. That no Covenant be made with any of the seven Nations of Canaan, Exod. 23.32. 2.
