If thou wilt say, that this was done by God peculiarly against these nations, because the Edomites had their offspring of Esau, the Ammonites and Moabites of Lot, which was kinsman unto Abraham, and had together with him accomplished most dangerous voyages: I answer, the same may be said also in the same place of other nations, which came not of Abraham. The Cappadocians drave out the Hevites which were the first inhabitants, who going out of Cappadocia, 1destroyed them, and in their place inhabited those Regions. And in Deuteronomy the .xxxii. chapter it is written, when God by lot divided the Gentiles, and the people according to the number of the Children of Israel. ⟨p. 188⟩In that it is said to be done by lot, all that is to be referred unto our understanding, which see not the causes of things. But with God nothing is done by lot. God hath distributed the nations according to the number of the children of Israel. For the Israelites were not yet increased, when God put the people in those Regions, who at the last gave place unto the Israelites when they came.
If thou wylt say, that thys was done by God peculiarly agaynste these nacious, bycause the Edomites had their ofspring of Esau, the Ammonites and Moabites of Lot, which was kynsman vnto Abraham, and had together with hym accomplished most daungerous viages: I aunswer, the same may be saide also in the same place of other nacions, which came not of Abrahrm. The Capadocians draue out the Heuites whyche were the first inhabiters, who going out of Capadocia, 1destroyed them, and in their place inhabited those Regions. And in Deuteronomy the .xxxii. chapter it is wrytten, when God by lot deuided the Gentiles, and the people according to the number of the Chyldren of Israell. ⟨p. 188⟩In that it is sayde to be done by lot, al that is to be referred vnto our vnderstandyng, whiche see not the causes of thinges. But wyth God nothing is done by lot. God hath distributed the nacions according to the number of the chyldren of Israel. For the Israelites were not yet increased, when God put the people in those Regions, who at the laste gaue place vnto the Israelites when they came.
