Thus God fheweth himfelfe to be the fiver of man and beak Pia1.36.7. to keepe alive] that is,that thou mail! keepe alive : (as the Greek explaineth it, that thou maifinourifb.) Obferve how verbes indefinite, doe oftentimes include (though not expreffe) a certain perfon, efpecially inch as was fpoken of before : as Ecclef.4.17. (or 5.1.) they know not to doe evil[ ; that is, they knownot that they doe evil[, Zachar. 22. o. they (hall mourn, and to be in bit ternef e ; that is, and they (hall be in bitterne . This the Hebrew text it felfa-fometime manitetleth : as Era. 37.18, 19. they have laid waif : andos caft their gods, re. that is, and they have aft their gods : as is written z King. 19, 18. So in r Chron.17.4. build me anhoxfe to dwell in: for which in 2 Sam.7.5. is written, Mild me an houfe fir me to dwell in.

So it was before with Adam,Gen.2.i9. to keep alive:]that is that thou maiff keepe them alive: as before in v.r 9. dr, to be kept alive : as the Greekehere tranflateth, to be nourifhedwith thee. For a Verb indefinite a &ive, is often to be underftood páifvely ; as, a time to beare, Ecclef: 3.2. that is, to be borne. What to doe? Efth,6.6. that is, what fball be done ? So, for to declare try name, Exod. 9. 16. is by the Apoftles authority tranflated, that my name maybe declared, Roni.9.17. See Gen.2.2ó. and 4.13. Verf.22.
