And Pharaoh / because when the word of god was in his country and gods people scattered through out all his land / and yet nether loved them or it: therefore god gave him up / and in taking his spirit of grace from him so hardened his heart with covetousness / that afterward no miracle could convert him.
And Pharao / because when the worde of god was in his contre and gods people scattered thorow out all his land / and yet nether loved them or it: therfore god gave him vp / and in takynge his spirite of grace from him so hardened his herte with covetousnes / that afterward no myracle coulde convert him.
Here to pertaineth the parable of the talents. Mat. xxv. The Lord commandeth the talent to be taken away from the evil & slothful ⟨image 5⟩servant & to bind him hand & foot & to cast him into utter darkness / & to give the talent unto him that had ten / saying: to all that have / more shall be given. But from him that hath not / that he hath shall be taken from him. That is to say / he that hath a good heart toward the word of God / & a set purpose to fashion his deeds thereafter & to garnish it with Godly living & to testify it to other / the same shall increase more & more daily in the grace of Christ. But he that loveth it not / to live thereafter & to edify other / the same shall loose the grace of true knowledge & be blinded again and every day ware worse and worse and blinder & blinder / till he be an utter enemy of the word of God / & his heart so hardened / that it shall be impossible to convert him.
