Chap.
6.
concerning
bookes
&
writing
.
Here
a
question
is
to
be
discussed
:
wither
a
book
be
a
lawful
help
to
further
vs
in
tyme
of
spiritual
worship
.
Revel.
10.10.11
.
Ezech.
3.3.4
.
Bookes
or
writings
are
signes
or
pictures
of
things
signified
therby
.
Writings
are
to
be
considered
in
the
concrete
or
in
the
abstract
.
In
the
concrete
writings
import
both
the
signe
&
the
thing
signified
therby
,
that
is
both
the
characters
&
the
matter
.
In
the
abstract
writings
import
the
signe
in
relation
to
the
thing
signified
therby
:
vis
:
lettres
,
sillables
,
wordes
,
syntaxe
.
Every
writing
is
compounded
of
wordes
.
Every
worde
is
made
of
lettres
&
sillables
except
that
some
lettres
&
sillables
are
wordes
.
Lettres
or
characters
are
significative
.

,
〈◊〉
.
signify
,
first
,
last
,
600
,
60
,
6.
Wordes
are
significative
in
the
first
or
second
intention
:
as
Amen
in
the
first
intention
signifieth
truth
or
truly
.
Mat.
5.18
.
Amen
in
the
second
intention
signifieth
Christ
Revel.
3.14
.
So
doth
Logos
signify
also
and
many
other
wordes
of
Scripture
.
Syntaxe
or
joyning
of
wordes
in
order
signifieth
discourse
,
As
single
wordes
signify
Logicall
relations
or
arguments
.
So
Syntaxe
or
wordes
compounded
in
sentence
signifieth
Axiomes
,
Syllogismes
,
Methode
.
Therefore
wordes
and
syntaxe
are
signes
of
thinges
,
and
of
the
relations
and
reason
of
thinges
Hence
it
followeth
that
bookes
or
writinges
are
in
the
nature
of
picturer
or
Images
&
therefore
in
the
nature
of
ceremonies
:
&
so
by
consequent
reading
a
booke
is
ceremoniall
.
For
as
the
Beast
in
the
Sacrifices
of
the
ould
Testament
was
ceremoniall
so
was
the
killing
of
the
Beast
ceremoniall
.

nature

the
kindes

the

writinges
may
bee
distinguished
according

the
subject

The
subject

parchment
,
wood
,

bee

bee

perfect

Ordinary
men

bookes
of
divers
kindes
among
the
rest
such
as
have
the
word
of
God
or
Holy
Scriptures
for
their
object
are
called
Theological
writinges
:
among
them
Translations
of
the
Holy
Scriptures
into
the
mother
tong
are
cheifly
to
be
esteemed
,
as
beeing
the
most
principall
,
yet
only
as
the
streame
issuing
from
the
fountayne
,
or
as
the
greatest
river
of
the
mayne
sea
.
No
writinges
of
ordinary
men
how
holy
or
good
soever
are
given
by
inspiration
,
&
therefore
are
subject
to
error
&
imperfect
&
so

.
&
by
the
Apostles
,
Act.
13.14.15
.
&c
reported
as
a
thing
of
auncient
approved
continuance
.
Act.
15.21
.
Answer
to
the
first
objection
.
First
the
reading
commaunded
by
Moses
was
only
once
every
seaven
yeere
.
Deut.
31.10.11
&
therfor
it
was
no
part
of
ordinary
worship
,
&
ther
is
no
commaundement
in
Moses
given
eyther
to
the
Preists
or
Levites
for
ordinary
reading
of
the
law
in
the
Tabernacle
.
Secondly
:
Hence
it
followeth
that
reading
in
the
old
Testament
was
no
part
of
the
worship
of
the
tabernacle
or
temple
,
or
of
the
service
performed
by
the
Priests
therein
,
for
all
the
worship
that
was
appointed
by
Moses
for
the
Preists
was
limited
to
the
holy
place
,
whither
the
people
were
not
admitted
.
Thirdly
:
therfor
reading
was
of
another
nature
performed
in
the
vtter
court
or
Synagogue
or
els
where
,
eyther
by
the
levites
or
any
other
learned
men
of
what
tribe
seever
:
Mat.
23.2
.
Luk.
4.16

so
no
part
of
worship
properly
so
called
,
but
only
a
ceremoniall
ground
or
soundation
,
of
inward
or
outward
spiritual
worship
common
to
the
Churches
of
all
ages
.
Lastly
:
it
is
not
denyed
but
that
reading
now
is
to
be
vsed
in
the
Church
:
only
we
say
it
is
not
a
part
of
spiritual
worship
,
or
a
lawful
meanes
in
tyme
of
spiritual
worship
.
The
second
objection
Reading
is
commaunded
in
the
new
testament
Colos:
4.16
.
1.
Thes:
5.27
.
and
a
blessing
prom●sed
thereto
Revel:
1.3
.
and
the
commaundement
is
that
it
be
practised
in
the
church
:
therefore
it
is
a
part
or
meanes
of
the
worship
of
the
new
testament
.
Answer
to
the
second
objection
.
Not
euerie
thinge
performed
in
the
church
is
a
parte
of
spirituall
worship
,
forall
the
partes
of
publique
administration
of
the
Kingdome
are
done
in
the
church
,
and
yet
cannot
be
sayd
to
be
partes
of
spirituall
worship
properly
so
called
.
Chap:
1.
and
2.
Moreover
when
he
commaundeth
his
Epistles
to
be
read
in
the
Churches
,
his
meaning
is
not
strictly
literall
:
that
is
,
that
the
very
wordes
which
he
wrote
should
be
repeated
verbatim
out
of
the
booke
:
but
his
meaning
is
that
the
fense
of
the
wordes
or
the
meaning
of
the
Apostle
should
be
related
to
the
brethren
,
whither
by
reading
the
verywordes
,
by
expounding
the
meaning
by
interpreting
or
translating
.
For
if
his
meaning
be
that
the
very
wordes
he
wrote
be
literaly
read
:
them
the
Greek
wordes
must
be
repeated
out
of
the
booke
to
all
nations
:
which
is
contrary
to
.
1.
Cor.
14.26
.
If
his
meaning
be
,
that
the
sense
should
be
given
any
way
,
by
translating
,
by
reading
the
translation
,
by
interpreting
his
meaning
in
a
paraphrase
,
commentary
&c.
then
how
will
it
follow
that
reading
the
Greek
tong
which
is
not
vnderstood
in
the
English
Churches
is
a
law
full
part
of
spirituall
worship
according
to
the
literall
signification
of
readings
?
Further
the
Apostle
wrote
his
Epistles
to
the
Collossians
,
&
Thessalonians
&
the
other
Churches
vppon
particular
occasions
for
partcular
endes
,
and
the
commaundement
of
reading
then
was
speciall
in
those
respects
to
them
:
and
the
intent
of
the
Apostle
is
not
to
enioyne
the
reading
of
them
every
day
&
in
tyme
of
Spiritual
worship
to
al
Churches
:
yet
wee
do
acknowledg
the
absolute
necessity
of
reading
&
searching
the
Scriptures
,
Ioh.
5.39
.
Againe
that
reading
is
a
lawful
yea
necessary
meanes
or
help
to
further
vs
to
Spiritual
worship
is
not
denyed
,
but
this
is
denyed
that
it
is
a
lawful
help
in
tyme
of
worship
,
or
a
lawful
part
of
Spiritual
worship
.
For
it
is
confessed
&
defended
by
the
auncient
brethren
of
the
seperation
,
that
the
originals
are
no
lawful
help
in
tyme
of
prayer
:
So
say
we
they
are
no
lawful
help
in
tyme
of
prophesying
&
singing
Psalmes
,
&
that
by
equal
proportion
for
ther
is
the
same
reason
of
helps
in
all
the
parts
of
Spiritual
worship
,
during
the
tyme
of
performing
the
worship
.

commaundeth

Timothie

so
all
Elders
to

that
it
is
to
be
vnderstood
of
the
joyning
of
reading
in
tyme
of
Spiritual
worship
Answer
to
the
third
objection
.
The
circumstances
of
the
place
being
●●el
considered
w●●
afoard
that
Paul
speaketh
no●
of
the
execution
of
his
office
,
but
of
preparing
himself
to
the
execution
of
his
office
:
which
is
attayned
by
reading
the
Scriptures
wherby
men
are
fitted
with
matter
fitt
to
teach
&
exhort
:
for
by
this
meanes
the
gift
o●
prophecy
was
preserved
in
Timothie
vs
.
14.
&
by
this
meanes
his
proficiency
should
be
manifested

vs
.
15.
by
this
meanes
he
should
the
better
save

fourth
objection

Let
it
be
graunted
that
the
Apostles
&
Evangelists
vsed
no
bookes
being
extraordinary
men
&
having
the
extraordinary
direction
of
the
spirit
,
for
they
needed
no
such
helps
of
bookes
as
wee
doe
:
Yet
wee
being
men
ordinary
have
need
of
bookes
,
therefor
they
by
the
direction
of
the
Spirit
both
have
written
bookes
for
our
vse
,
&
have
commaunded
vs
to
vse
them
.
Answer
to
the
fourth
objection
.
This
objection
may
aswell
fit
bringing
of
bookes
into
the
tyme
of
prayer
,
from
whence
they
are
justly
banished
:
for
it
may
be
sayd
that
the
Apostles
were
extraordinary
men
,
&
needed
no
bookes
for
prayer
,
but
wee
need
books
to
help
our
infirmity
:
&
why
may
not
a
man
aswel
say
the
Apostle
commaundeth
the
reading
of
prayers
,
&
promiseth
a
blessing
to
reading
of
prayers
in
tyme
of
prayer
as
otherwise
.
Again
,
though
the
holy
Spirit
be
not
given
to
vs
in
the
same
manner
&
measure
as
to
the
Apostles
,
yet
we
have
the
same
Spirit
to
help
vs
as
they
had
,
&
to
the
same
ordinary
purposes
,
is
he
sent
to
vs
by
Christ
as
to
them
:
namely
to
help
our
infirmityes
:
Rom.

for
the
work
of
the
ministery
:
Eph.
4.12
.
to
be
our
annoynting
,
1.
Ioh.
2.27
.
to
lead
into
all
truth
:
Ioh
16.13
.
to
be
our
paraclete
:
Ioh.
14.16
.
&
so
by
consequent
to
help
vs
to
pray
,
prophesy
,
&
prayse
God
.
Againe
this
objection
seemeth
to
establish
two
formes
of
prophesying
,
one
without
bookes
by
the
Apostles
for
many
yeeres
in
the
Church
:
another
with
bookes
afterward
taught
by
the
Apostles
:
&
then
it
followeth
that
the
Apostles
gospell
was
yea
&
nay
,
who
first
taught
&
practised
one
way
,
&
afterward
taught
&
commaunded
to
practise
another
way
.
Lastly
:
The
Apostles
had
the
bookes
of
the
Old
Testament
in
the
Hebrwe
tong
,
&
so
might
have
vsed
them
before
their
eye
in
tyme
of
prophesying
,
eyther
to
read
out
of
them
to
the
Hebrues
,
or
to
translate
and
interprett
out
of
them
to
the
Greecians
:
but
they
did
neyther
of
these
,
but
only
prophesyed
out
of
their
harts
,
as
the
Holy
Ghost
gave
them
vtterance
.
Act.
2.4
.
Yea
&
taught
the
primitive
Churches
so
to
doe
:
1.
Cor.
14.26
.
If
it
can
be
shewed
that
they
did
vse
the
bookes
of
the
Old
Testament
in
tyme
of
worship
to
read
or
interprete
from
them
,
lett
it
be
shewed
,
&
wee
yeeld
:
if
not
thus
wee
hold
&
practise
for
the
present
.
Here
vppon
it
followeth
that
neyther
reading
the
originals
,
nor
interpreting
or
translating
out
of
the
originals
the
book
being
before
the
eye
,
is
eyther
a
lawfull
part
or
meanes
of
Spirituall
worship
.

Of
the
writings
of
men
.
Writings
of
men
are
of
divers
kinds
:
among
them
are
translations
of
the
holy
Scriptures
a
most
principal
.
To
translate
the
originals
into
any
mother
tong
is
aswell
,
&
asmuch
the
work
of
a
mans
witt
&
learning
,
as
to
analyse
the
Scriptures
Rhetorically
or
Logically
,
to
Collect
doctrynes
&
vses
Theologically
,
to
give
expositions
&
interpretations
of
places
doubtfull
.
The
translator
cannot
conceave
nor
expresse
in
writing
the
whole
mynd
of
the
holy
Spirit
conteyned
in
the
originals
,
but
only
some
good
part
of
it
:
the
expositor
,
paraphrast
commentator
may
expresse
asmuch
as
the
translator
,
yea
&
in
respect
of
some
particulars
,
as
Hebraismes
,
Grecismes
&
the
like
considerations
,
much
more
.
Ther
is
as
good
warrant
to
translate
the
Scriptures
as
to
expound
analyse
,
&
draw
doctrynes
&
vses
from
the
Scriptures
.

&
by
proportion
from

.
Ther
is
no
better
warrant
to
bring
translations
of
Scripture
written
into
the
church
,
&
to
reade
them
as
partes
or
helps
of
worship
,
then
to
bring
in
expositions
,
resolutions
,
paraphrasts
&
sermons
vppon
the
Scripture
seing
al
these
are
equally
humane
in

of
the

equally

.
Hitherto
apperteyneth
this
question
,
whether
reading
a
translation
be
a
lawful
help
or
meanes
in
tyme
of
Spiritual
worship
or
a
lawful
part
of
Spiritual
worship
.
If
originals
must
be
laid
aside
as
in
tyme
of
prayer
,
so
also
in
tyme
of
prophesying
&
singing
,
then
much
more
must
translations
be
laid
aside
at
that
tyme
:
as
may
further
be
manifested
thus
.
Bicause
the
Septuagints
translation
was
a
greevous
sinne
for
many
reasons
.
1.
For
that
the
covenant
of
grace
ought
not
to
have
been
preached
vnto
the
gentils
til
the
fullnes
of
tyme
.
Mat
:
10.5

1.
Timoth
3.16
.
Rom.
16.25.26
compared
with
,
Mat.
10.5.6
.
&
28.19
.
And
therfor
that
the
Septuagints
by
their
translation
did
communicate
it
to
the
Grecians
,
before
the
fulnes
of
tyme
was
their
greevous
sinne
.
2.
Bicause
all
the
Gentills
ought
to
have
been
proselytes
of
the
Iewes
Church
&
to
have
come
to
Ierusalem
to
worship
▪
Exod
12
.
43-49
.
Mat.
23.15
.
Act.
2.10
.
&
ought
to
have
learned
their
tong
&
worship
,
which
was
prevented
by
the
Septuagints
translation
.
3.
Bicause
the
Hebrue
characters
&
writings
were
Ceremonyes
&
so
ought
not
to
have
been
profaned
among
the
Grecians
by
their
writings
:
&
as
the
Philistims
were
justly
plagued
for
the
presence
of
the
Arke
,
1.
Sam.
5.
So
might
the
Lord
justly
have
plagued
the
Grecians
for
that
the
Oracles
of
God
were
among
them
,
&
fearfully
abused
by
them
.
4.
If
it
were
vnlawful
to
sing
one
of
Davids
Psalmes
in
a
strang
nation
as
Babylon
.
psal.
137.4
.
then
much
more
vnlawfull
was
it
to
translate
the
Scriptures
into
a
straunge
tong
for
all
the
Ceremoniall
law
was
bounded
within
the
holy
land
.
5.
The
translation
of
the
Septuagints
out
of
Hebrue
into
Greeke
,
is
contradictory
to
the
Lords
mercy
to
the
Iewes
church
&
ther
special

.
Act.

.
46-48
.
contrary
also
to
Rom.
16.25.26
.
6.
Bicause
that
seing
the
Hebrew
writings
were
Ceremonyes
it
was
vnlawful
for
the
Septuagints
to
chandg
them
from
their
proper
kind
,
&
to
picture
them
out
by
the
Greek
writings
for
the
Greeks
vse
.
7.
Bicause
the
Septuagints
did
of
purpose
conceale
many
things
as
judging
the
gentils
vnworthy
to
know
them
fearing
also
least
they
should
profane
such
holy
mysteries
wherein
their
consciences
told
them
playnly
that
their
translation
was
their
synne
:
also
they
did
pervert
many
things
of
purpose
,
ad
somthing
&
infinitely
corrupt
their
translation
which
was
their
greeve
us
sinne
.
Hence
it
followeth
that
seing
the
Septuagints
translation
was
so
greevous
a
sinne
,
therfor
the
Apostles
would
never
account
it
holy
scripture
comming
from
the
holy
ghost
&
so
never
approve
the
vse
of
it
in
the
Greek
Churches
.
Againe
wee
never
heard
of
any
other
translation
before
Christ
,
besides
the
Septuagints
:
or
if
ther
were
any
,
it
were
vnlawful
by
the
same
reasons
before
vsed
against
the
Septuagints
.
Further
:
ther
could
be
no
vse
of
the
Septuagints
translation
for
reading
in
the
Latine
Church
of
the
Romanes
.
More
over
the
new
Testament
being
not
written
,
none
of
it
till
7.10
.
or
20.
yeeres
after
Christs
death
,
not
all
of
it
till
Iohn
had
written
who
was
the
surviver
of
the
Apostles
,
how
could
ther
bee
a
translation
of
the
new
Testament
written
during
the
Apostles
lives
?
Besides
it
is
never
mentioned
that
ever
any
Apostle
or
Apostolique
man
or
Church
,
eyther
had
from
the
Apostles
or
vsed
by
their
direction
or
approbation
a
translation
of
any
sort
,
whathoever
before
the
eye
in
tyme
of
Spirituall
worship
:
if
yea
:
let
it
be
shewed
.
Lastly
translations
therfor
beganne
in
the
Church
after
the
Apostles
dayes
in
tyme
of
worship
,
&
so
were
not
from
the
beginning
,
in
respect
whereof
they
are
a
part
of
the
mystery
of
iniquity
in
worship
.

seing
he
cannot
examyne
it

so
beleeve

refuse
it

Therfore
it
is

it

then
follow
the
wo●des
of

&
it

not

wher
they

as

Wher
the

Answer
to
the
first
Objection
.
If
the
originals
themselves
are
not
to
be
vsed
as
helps
in
tyme
of
Spiritual
worship
,
as
hath
been
proved
then
this
objection
is
of
no
force
●or
translations
.
Secondly
:
if
it
were
of
force
to
bring
translations
to
be
read
in
the
tyme
of
worship
●t
were
avayleable
thus
far
even
to
bring
in
to
the
tyme
of
worship
the
errors
of
the
●ranslations
:
for
so
this
objection
importeth
that
the
Apostles
quote
the
Septuagints
●rrors
,
&
wheras
it
is
said
by
some
that
in
the
Apostles
intention
it
is
no
error
,
sith
●●riting
to
Theophilus
&
the
Grecians
,
rather
then
he
would
haza●d
their
fayth
by
●●aundging
the
Septuagints
errors
&
corre&ing
such
an

Translation
,
he
〈◊〉
ought
it

to
follow
that

of

contrary

&

〈◊〉
fury
in
the
Old
Testament
:
It
is
thus
answered
th●t
the
Holy
Ghost
needeth
〈◊〉
the
lyes
of
men
,
to
work
his
work
,
nor
the
Septuagints
errors
to
support
the
fayth
〈◊〉
●heophilus
&
the
Grecians
:
And
this
mischeef
followeth
herevppon
that
rather
〈◊〉
the
●ayth
of
Theophilus
&
the
Grecians
,
should
be
endaungered
the
credit
o●
the
〈◊〉
Scriptu●es
should
be
hazarded
their
being
found
in

such

And

it
is
t●e
thing
by

to

by

Another
thing
to
translate
〈◊〉
from
a
translation
into
them
original
,
which
is
to
approve
them
,
&
this
whosoever
affirmeth
,
speaketh
litle
lesse
then
blasphemy
.
Thirdly
:
therfor
as
Antiehrist
hath
polluted
all
Gods
ordinances
so
hath
he
violated
the
original
criptures
:
And
therfor
one
Caynan
must
be
put
out
:
For
so
me
auncient
copies
have
it
not
:
&
for
75.
Ther
must
be
read
seaventy
all
:
Pente
for
Pantes
:
as
Rom.
12.11
.
Kairo
,
Kurio
,
&
it
is
possible
easily
to
mistake
so
small
a
matter
in
copying
out
any
thing
as
experience
teacheth
.
Lastly
fully
to
answer
the
objection
whatsoever
is
good
in
the
Septuagints
translation
was
taken
out
of
the
New
Testament
,
&
auncient
Fathers
of
the
Greek
Church
:
For
it
is
manifest
by
historyes
that
the
Septuagints
translation
is
lost
,
&
this
that
goeth
vnder
the
name
of
the
Septuagint
is
a
patchery
made
out
of
auncient
writings
:
and
therfor
the
Holy
Ghost
doth
not
ayme
at
the
Septuagints
Translation
at
all
as
is
imported
in
the
Objection
.
The
second
Objection
.
The
were
Greekes
&
Grecians
:
Hellenes
:
Kai
Hellenistai
.
As
may
appeare
Act.
6.
1.
Rom.
1.16
.
The
Greekes
were
of
the
Progeny
of
the
Greekes
aswel
as
of
the
country
:
The
Grecians
were
Iewes
by
Progeny
,
&
borne
in
Grecia
:
Therfor
Paull
calleth
himself
an
Hebrew
of
the
Hebrewes
:
Philip
3
:
5.
Now
these
Grecians
had
forgotten
their
Language
&
spake
Greek
only
:
And
having
Synagogues
in
the
Cities
where
they
dwelt
,
h●d
the
Septuagints
translation
read
vnto
them
,
&
the
Apostles
comming
into
their
Synagogues
did
approve
that
act
of
thei●s
of
reading
the
translation
&
so
it
followeth
that
reading
translations
is
lawfull
in
worship
.
Answer
to
the
second
Objection
.
The
distiction
of
Greekes
&
Grecians
is
vayne
as
appeareth
by
these
places
compated
together
:
Act.
21.39
.
&
18.2.24
.
with
Act.
6.1
.
Philip.
3.5
.
For
Paul
was
borne
at
Tarsus
in
Cilicia
,
&
Aquila
at
Pontus
,
&
Apollos
at
Alexandria
,
And
yet
are
all
called
Iewes
not
Hellenists
or
Grecians
:
&
Act.
6.1
.
The
Helenists
murmured
against
the
Hebrues
,
the
Helenists
did
vnderstand
the
Hebrue
tong
,
&
had
not
forgotten
their
owne
Language
.
Secondly
:
it
cannot
be
proved
by
Scriptures
that
the
Helenists
had
the
Greek
translation
read
vnto
them
in
the
Synagogues
,
it
is
manifestly
otherwise
by
the
reasons
vsed
before
against
the
translation
of
the
Septuagints
.
Thirdly
,
the
worship
of
God
properly
so
called
of
the
whole
Church
of
the
Iewes
▪
was
performed
in
the
Holy
place
at
Ie●usalem
,
&
so
that
which
was
performed
in
the
Synagogue
was
not
properly
the
worship
of
the
whole
Church
of
the
Iewes
:
but
was
of
that
nature
that
passed
between
Christ
&
the
Doctors
in
the
temple
:
Luk.
2.46
.
compared
with
Act.
17.2
.
Fourthly
if
the
Helenists
did
read
the
Septuagints
translation
as
a
part
of
ther
proper
worship
hauing
forgotten
their
owne
Language
,
therin
were
committed
these
synnes
.
1.
Forgetting
their
tong
one
part
of
the
ceremonial
law
.
Nehem.
13.24
.
2.
●●●tuting
worship
in
a
common
tong
which
was
as
vnlawfull
as
sacrif●cing
a
dog
3.
Therefore
it
was
a
false
worship
,
as
it
was
a
false
worship
to
sacrifice
an
vncleane
beaste
vnder
the
law
Lastly
if
they
did
reade
the
Septuagintes
translation
&
the
Apostles
came
in
&
heard
,
it
doth
not
follow
they
did
allow
it
as
a
parte
of
the
worship
of
the
new
testament
,
no
more
then
they
did
allow
circumcision
to
be
:
neither
did
they
in
deede
giue
any
allowance
vnto
it
at
all
,
seing
they
came
to
the
synagogues
where
was
the
greatest
concourse
of
people
not
to
worship
,
but
to
draw
them
to
Christ
,
not
to
approue
their
doinges
but
to
disproue
them
.
The
third
obiection
.
Deut:
31.12
.
the
reasons
that
are
alledged
for
readinge
the
law
are
perpetuall
,
and
therfore
the
law
of
reading
is
perpetuall
:
the
morall
reasons
are
,
hearing
,
learning
,
fearing
god
,
&
keepinge
his
lawes
.
Answer
to
the
third
objection
.
First
the
law
of
reading
is
not
moral
in
the
parricular
act
,
but
in
the
equity
:
for
it
was
commaunded
to
be
done
but
once
in
seaven
yeare
at
the
feast
of
tabernacles
Deut.
31.10
.
&
if
it
had
been
moral
in
the
particular
act
it
should
have
been
from
the
beginning
,
(
which
was
not
so
,
seing
it
beganne
with
Moses
,
)
&
it
sh●uld
continue
a●ter
the
end
of
the
world
:
for
moralities
endure
for
ever
:
But
bookes
&
so
reading
of
bookes
shal
perish
.
Secondly
it
is
morall
in
the
equity
,
that
is
,
tha●
all
meanes
must
be
vsed
to
attayne
the
knowledg
of
the
truth
wherof
reading
is
a
principall
,
&
yet
hence
it
followeth
not
that
reading
is
eyther
a
part
or
meanes
of
Spiritual
worship
:
For
bookes
are
things
meerely
artificiall
as
are
pictures
&
ymages
,
Genes.
4.22
.
Finally
let
it
be
granted
that
reading
is
morall
it
doth
not
herevppon
follow
that
it
is
lawfull
in
tyme
of
Spiritual
worship
as
a
part
or
help
thereto
.
Seing
that
reading
is
searching
the
Scripture
,
or
preparing
to
the
worship
,
&
not
worship
it self
,
&
seing
that
when
a
man
doth
worship
,
he
is
not
to
prepare
to
worship
as
he
doth
that
readeth
:
though
I
deny
not
but
that
one
part
of
worship
●s
a
preparation
to
another
.
The
fourth
objection
.
Reading
the
law
was
performed
in
the
Synagogue
,
&
it
was
not
tyed
to
the
temple
or
the
holy
place
,
which
is
an
argument
that
reading
is
not
ceremoniall
but
morall
,
for
no
part
of
ceremonial
worship
was
performed
from
the
tabernacle
or
Temple
.
Answer
to
the
fourth
objection
.
The
argument
foloweth
not
:
for
although
all
ceremonial
worship
was
to
be
performed
at
Ierusalem
Ioh.
4.20
,
Yet
it
is
so
to
be
construed
as
intended
by
the
woman
according
to
the
lawes
direction
:
namely
,
of
the
worship
which
the
Preists
performed
as
sacrificers
:
〈◊〉
may
be
seen
:
D●●●
▪
1●
.
5-7
.
&
vs
▪
11-19
.
For
otherwise
some
ceremoniall
worship
;
as
namely
circumcizion
was
performed
any
where
in
the
land
of
Israel
,
for
the
males
must
needes
be
circumcized
at
8.
dayes
old
,
&
it
was
impossible
to
bring
the
males
some
of
them
100.
miles
within
eight
dayes
space
.
see
Chap.
20.
Againe
suppose
reading
the
law
to
be
a
morall
action
(
which
yet
is
not
so
)
hence
it
followeth
not
that
reading
the
law
is
a
part
of
Spirituall
worship
or
a
lawful
help
therto
in
tyme
therof
:
for
by
the
same
reason
every
morall
duty
may
be
made
a
part
or
meanes
of
Spirituall
worship
,
which
is
absurd
,
for
that
is
to
confound
the
second
table
of
the
lawe
,
&
the
dutyes
thereof
with
the
first
table
&
the
dutyes
thereof
&
the
gospel
with
the
law
.
The
fifth
objection
.
Luk.
4.16
.
Christ
stood
vp
to
read
,
&
read
his
text
,
&
then
preached
out
of
it
:
Now
his
actions
are
our
instru&ions
:
&
therfor
wee
are
to
read
wordes
out
of
a
book
in
tyme
of
preaching
or
prophesying
.
Answer
to
the
fifth
objection
.
To
this
objection
many
things
may
be
answered
.
First
in
that
it
was
done
in
the
Synagogue
by
Christ
which
was
neither
Preist
not
Levite
,
it
is
an
argument
〈◊〉
it
was
no
proper
part
of
the
worship
of
the
old
testament
,
but
of
that
nature
a●
was
th●t
●●crise
performed
by
Christ
&
the
Doctors
in
temple
:
so
that
reading
most
property
is
●ea●ching
the
scriptu●es
,
which
is
not
worship
.
Secondly
:
Christ
had
the
O●●g●●●e●
the
Hebrue
text
of
Esay
the
Prophet
,
&
read
or
interpreted
out
of
it
,
for
it
is
doubtfull
whither
he
vttered
the
Hebrue
words
or
speake
the
sense
of
the
Hebrue
in
the
Syriac●●
dialect
:
&
therfor
from
hence
reading
a
translation
cannot
be
concluded
▪
but
eyther
reading
or
interpreting
the
originals
.
Thirdly
:
Hence
cannot
be
concluded
that
manner
of
p●eaching
now
vsed
ehat
a
man
shall
taKe
his
text
,
&
then
devide
it
into
parts
analysing
it
Rhetorically
,
&
Logically
,
collecting
doctrynes
&
vses
from
every
member
or
argument
or
word
of
his
text
al
this
while
he
having
his
book
before
his
eye●
to
help
him
at
all
assayes
:
a
thing
wherof
I
am
assured
the
holy
Scriptures
yeeldeth
no
warrant
that
it
may
be
accounted
a
part
of
Spiritual
worship
:
For
although
the
Scriptures
may
be
so
handled
,
&
that
for
very
profitable
vse
,
yet
that
is
rather
a
Scholasticall
lecture
,
then
an
Ecclesiasticall
worship
:
it
is
rather
an
inquisition
&
searching
of
the
holy
Spirits
intent
and
purpose
,
then
prophesying
.
Lastly
:
If
wee
must
needes
be
tyed
to
this
example
of
Christ
(
which
I
see
no
reason
for
seing
reading
was
of
the
Old
Testament
)
then
the
example
of
Christ
shal
bind
also
thus
far
,
as
that
the
book
shal
be
layde
aside
,
so
soone
as
the
text
is
read
,
&
the
book
that
is
vsed
shal
be
the
Originals
:
which
is
nothing
for
vocall
but
for
mental
reading
,
or
for
interpreting
,
&
which
I
never
have
thought
to
contradict
,
but
wherin
I
am
ready
to
be
overruled
:
For
this
particular
see

Quere

Chap.
17.
Concerning
the
vse
of
the
translations
for
the
hearers
.
Hitherto
aperteyneth
another
question
:
whither
the
hearers
may
have
their
translations
or
the
originals
to
read
or
search
in
tyme
of
prophesy
.
The
answer
is
Negative
that
it
is
not
lawful
for
these
reasons
.
First
:
the
Prophets
&
Apostles
wrote
bookes
,
but
did
never
devide
their
bookes
int●
chapters
or
verses
:
Henry
Stephen
first
made
the
verses
of
the
new
Testament
:
Seing
therfor
that
chapter
&
verse
were
of
mans
invention
,
hence
it
followeth
before
chapter
&
verse
came
in
the
hearers
could
not
turne
to
search
their
bookes
in
tyme
of
hearing
.
Secondly
:
the
Apostles
in
quoting
testimonyes
of
the
Prophets
doe
not
quote
chapter
&
verse
,
but
only
say
:
it
is
written
:
by
Zachary
,
by
Ieremy
.
The
Scripture
saith
:
The
Holy
Ghost
saith
,
&c.
Therby
teaching
vs
that
there
is
no
vse
of
Chapter
and
verse
for
searching
in
tyme
of
hearing
:
For
no
doubt
they
preached
as
they
wrote
.
Thirdly
:
never
was
ther
any
mention
made
of
any
hearer
that
ever
had
his
booke
to
search
in
tyme
of
hearing
.
Fourthly
:
Searching
quotations
hindereth
attention
:
for
the
mynd
&
affections
are
distracted
from
hearing
by
seeking
the
places
:
seing
the
mynd
&
hart
should
follow
●he
voyce
of
the
speaker
,
as
in
prayer
,
so
also
in
Prophesying
.
Nehem.
8.3
.
Lastly
manuscripts
being
few
&
very
deere
&
large
(
ther
being
yet
no
printing
found
out
)
all
could
not
have
or
bring
their
bookes
,
but
there
is
only
one
kind
of
true
&
profitable
hearing
,
eyther
all
to
have
bookes
and
search
,
or
none
to
have
them
:
Seing
therfor
bringing
bookes
&
searching
them
in
tyme
of
hearing
was
not
from
the
beginning
:
Therfor
that
also
is
a
part
of
the
mystery
of
iniquity
in
hearing
the
word
.
Chap.

Of
the
nature
of
essence
of
Spiritual
worship
&
the
essentiall
causses
&
kinds
thereo
:
Thus
much
concerning
the
helps
of
Spirituall
wor●hip
:
Now
followeth
to
be
considered
the
nature
or
essence
thereof
,
which
may
appeare
in
two
particulars
:
viz:
First
in
the
essentiall
causses
of
Spiritual
worship
.
Secondly
in
the
proper
kinds
or
parrs
of
the
worship
of
the
new
Testament
.
The
essentiall
causses
of
Spiritual
worship
are
the
matter
and
the
so●●●●
.
The
matter
of
Gods
worship
is
the
holy
Scriptu●es
which
cont●●neth
the
word
o●
God
,
or
the
Gospel
,
the
subject
whereof
is
Christ
Iesus
:
The
forme
or
soule
that
quickeneth
it
is
the
Spirit
.
Colos.

.
compared
with
Eph.
5.18.19.20
.
This
may
be
illustrated
by
the
ceremoniall
worship
of
the
Old
Testament
&
the
essentiall
causses
thereof
.
The
matter
of
the
ceremonial
worship
of
the
Old
Testament
was
the
beasts
,
incense
,
Oyle
,
fatt
;
corne
,
wine
,
&
the
like
Creatures
wherof
the
sacrifices
,
offerings
,
perfumes
,
lampes
,
&
bread
were
made
,
with
al
the
actions
therto
aperteyning
.
Proportionable
hereto
is
the
matter
of
our
spiritual
worship
Christ
Iesus
&
his
merits
:
the
word
of
God
conteyned
in
the
Scriptures
which
offereth
Christ
Iesus
vnto
vs
:
the
seales
of
the
covenant
with
all
the
actions
therto
aperteyning
.
The
form
of
the
ceremonial
worship
of
the
Old
Testament
consisting
in
Sacrifices
,
(
besides
the
manner
of
doing
)
appeared
in
4.
things
:
two
wherof
must
be
absent
for
the
most
part
viz:
honey
&
leaven
:
two
must
alwayes
be
present
:
fire
&
salt

-8.
Proportionable
herevnto
the
forme
of
our
Spiritual
worship
consisteth
in
the
fire
of
the
Spirit
working
with
the
word
:

1.
Cor.

.
which
was
also
signified
by
absence
of
honey
which
hath
a
faculty
to
leaven
.
As
the
fire
came
downe
from
heaven
,
whe●with
the
sacrifices
were
off●red
;
Ievit
.
9.24
So
the
holy
Ghost
like
fire
came
downe
vppon
the
primitive
Church
,
to
make
their
Spiritual
sacrifices
acceptable
:
So
must
it
doe
also
vppon
ours
:
A●●
.
2.3.4
.
As
the
fire
was
dayly
preserved
to
offer
withall
.
Levit.
6.12
13.
&
straunge
fire
might
not
be
offered
:
Levit.
10.1
.
So
whatsoever
worship
is
offered
vp
&
is
not
kindled
with
the
Spirit
of
grace
in
our
harts
is
abhominable
:
1.
Cor.
12.7.10
.
1.
Pet.
2.5
.
Hence
it
followeth
that
the
worship
that
beginneth
in
the
book
or
translation
commeth
not
originally
from
the
Spirit
,
but
from
the
lettre
or
ceremony
,
&
so
is
not
properly
of
the
new
Testament
,
but
of
the
Old
:
2.
Corinth.
3.6
.
If
the
translation
be
made
by
one
without
,
it
commeth
from
a
straunge
fire
,
&
cannot
be
accepted
,
but
is
subject
to
a
curse
.
Thus
much
of
the
essential
causses
:
now
follow
the
kinds
of
Spiritual
worship
,
which
are

As
Musicall
Instruments

playing
vppon

was
typicall

bicause
it
was

:
So
reading
of
a
book
was
typicall
also
bicause
it
is
meerely
Artificiall
,
Hence
it
followeth
that
reading

was
a

th●●●or
wee
may

for

no

doth
it
follow
that
●hough
in

they
read
Psalmes

we
may
doe
so
now

parts

Therfor
as
the
auncient
brethren
of
the
Seperation
have
taken
all
books
from
before

eye
in
tyme
of
prayer
,
so
doe
wee
take
all
bookes
from
the
eye
in
tyme
of
prophe●ying
&
singing
:
&
that
by
the
same
reason
they
being
al
equally
excellent
parts
of

for

is
asmuch
