be_v traduce_v from_o the_o parent_n into_o the_o child_n 1._o on_o the_o one_o side_n they_o say_v the_o child_n receive_v from_o his_o parent_n not_o his_o soul_n but_o only_o his_o body_n for_o

with_o agility_n and_o subtility_n perfection_n and_o immortality_n and_o shall_v no_o way_n be_v change_v in_o substance_n but_o shall_v still_o remain_v the_o same_o quantative_a body_n bound_v

the_o apostle_n say_v 2.9_o colloss_n 2.9_o the_o fullness_n of_o the_o godhead_n dwell_v in_o christ_n bodily_a and_o therefore_o how_o can_v it_o be_v but_o that_o a_o body_n unite_v to_o the_o
