and_o erasmus_n translate_v here_o according_a to_o this_o render_v our_o saviour_n be_v not_o here_o call_v god_n over_o all_o but_o the_o apostle_n give_v thanks_o to_o god_n over_o all_o for_o his_o unspeakable_a gift_n our_o lord_n christ_n our_o author_n say_v that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o translation_n of_o this_o text_n which_o favour_n the_o socinian_o they_o be_v not_o much_o to_o be_v regard_v but_o this_o be_v a_o answer_n fit_a for_o a_o old_a woman_n to_o make_v than_o for_o a_o writer_n in_o these_o question_n see_v he_o undertake_v to_o confute_v the_o socinian_o he_o ought_v to_o have_v show_v that_o the_o translation_n which_o confirm_v their_o doctrine_n be_v someway_n faulty_a he_o shall_v have_v answer_v the_o critical_a reason_n which_o erasmus_n and_o curcellaeus_n give_v of_o their_o translation_n they_o observe_v that_o if_o the_o word_n god_n over_o all_o have_v be_v intend_v of_o our_o lord_n christ_n the_o apostle_n shall_v have_v say_v in_o the_o greek_a 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d not_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d and_o i_o doubt_v not_o that_o our_o author_n be_v aware_a that_o those_o critic_n be_v in_o the_o right_a and_o therefore_o he_o willing_o overlook_v both_o the_o translation_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o if_o you_o sir_n say_v to_o i_o this_o be_v a_o critical_a dispute_n how_o shall_v a_o unlearned_a man_n be_v able_a to_o judge_n which_o of_o the_o two_o sense_n be_v intend_v by_o the_o apostle_n what_o ground_n can_v such_o a_o one_o have_v to_o say_v the_o trinitarian_n translation_n be_v not_o good_a yes_o he_o be_v as_o much_o qualify_v to_o judge_n as_o the_o most_o learned_a for_o see_v the_o word_n may_v be_v confess_o by_o both_o parcies_n render_v two_o way_n he_o may_v be_v sure_a that_o be_v the_o true_a read_n and_o render_v which_o agree_v with_o evident_a reason_n and_o with_o the_o rest_n of_o scripture_n both_o which_o allow_v of_o but_o one_o person_n who_o be_v god_n over_o all_o and_o if_o there_o be_v more_o such_o person_n there_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v more_o go_n this_o reason_v direct_v he_o which_o side_n he_o be_v to_o take_v not_o only_o in_o this_o question_n but_o in_o all_o other_o question_n whatsoever_o the_o question_n be_v if_o a_o text_n or_o text_n be_v allege_v that_o may_v be_v translate_v several_a way_n that_o be_v the_o true_a translation_n which_o be_v firm_v by_o evident_a reason_n and_o other_o clear_a text_n and_o that_o be_v a_o false_a translation_n which_o will_v introduce_v a_o opinion_n contrary_a to_o reason_n or_o to_o other_o indisputable_a text_n therefore_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o unlearned_a may_v be_v as_o certain_a and_o wellgrounded_n as_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o great_a critic_n for_o either_o other_o clear_a and_o indisputable_a text_n or_o a_o demonstrative_a reason_n present_v itself_o and_o dissolve_v the_o difficulty_n and_o if_o this_o be_v not_o so_o it_o will_v not_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o the_o unlearned_a nay_o it_o will_v be_v contrary_a to_o their_o duty_n to_o be_v of_o any_o persuasion_n or_o party_n at_o all_o such_o must_v neither_o be_v protestant_n nor_o papist_n socinian_o nor_o trinitarian_n remonstrant_n nor_o calvinist_n nor_o of_o any_o other_o sect_n because_o of_o this_o pretence_n that_o they_o can_v make_v a_o critical_a judgement_n of_o different_a translation_n but_o no_o party_n will_v dare_v to_o say_v this_o therefore_o say_v i_o the_o unlearned_a may_v and_o have_v a_o right_a to_o be_v of_o a_o particular_a side_n and_o persuasion_n on_o this_o account_n that_o by_o help_n of_o clear_a text_n or_o of_o evident_a reason_n they_o may_v in_o all_o question_n easy_o discern_v which_o side_n they_o ought_v to_o take_v i_o will_v add_v that_o ofttimes_o the_o vnprejudiced_a and_o judicious_a unlearned_a person_n see_v far_a and_o clear_a than_o the_o interest_v prejudice_v and_o vnjudicious_a critic_n or_o other_o learned_a person_n but_o of_o this_o i_o have_v say_v enough_o in_o that_o general_n preface_n to_o some_o of_o our_o pamphlet_n which_o have_v this_o title_n a_o exhortation_n to_o a_o serious_a and_o impartial_a

must_v all_o return_n to_o rome_n his_o last_o scripture-allegation_n be_v from_o phil._n 2.5_o etc._n etc._n let_v this_o mind_n be_v in_o you_o which_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o god_n think_v it_o not_o robbery_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n but_o make_v himself_o of_o no_o reputation_n and_o take_v on_o he_o the_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n and_o be_v

wherefore_o god_n have_v high_o exalt_v he_o and_o give_v he_o a_o name_n above_o every_o name_n mr._n misb_n have_v say_v but_o very_o little_a on_o this_o context_n other_o of_o his_o parcy_n have_v make_v advantage_n of_o almost_o every_o clause_n thereof_o the_o lord_n christ_n say_v they_o be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o god_n what_o can_v that_o mean_a but_o that_o he_o be_v god_n for_o the_o form_n of_o a_o thing_n be_v the_o very_a nature_n of_o it_o and_o that_o this_o be_v a_o true_a interpretation_n we_o certain_o know_v by_o the_o next_o word_n which_o say_v he_o think_v it_o not_o robbery_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n have_v he_o not_o be_v god_n it_o have_v be_v the_o great_a robbery_n and_o sacrilege_n possible_a to_o think_v himself_o equal_a with_o god_n it_o be_v true_a he_o humble_v himself_o and_o take_v on_o he_o the_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n and_o be_v make_v in_o the_o likeness_n of_o man_n and_o be_v find_v in_o fashion_n as_o a_o man_n and_o become_v obedient_a to_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n but_o even_o these_o very_a expression_n be_v such_o as_o plain_o intimate_v that_o all_o this_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o his_o condescension_n he_o sloop_v to_o these_o thing_n only_o because_o for_o great_a and_o weighty_a reason_n he_o be_v please_v so_o to_o do_v of_o those_o reason_n or_o end_n the_o apostle_n here_o mention_n one_o to_o set_v we_o a_o example_n let_v that_o mind_n say_v he_o be_v in_o you_o which_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v so_o great_a a_o person_n yet_o humble_v himself_o to_o take_v the_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n and_o be_v make_v in_o the_o likeness_n of_o man._n i_o will_v here_o sir_n tell_v you_o a_o story_n a_o certain_a countryman_n that_o happen_v to_o live_v in_o a_o parish_n where_o the_o minister_n use_v to_o insist_v very_o often_o on_o these_o question_n about_o the_o divinity_n and_o the_o incarnation_n of_o our_o saviour_n turn_v down_o in_o his_o bible_n the_o proof_n allege_v by_o his_o minister_n and_o be_v a_o man_n though_o of_o no_o learning_n yet_o of_o a_o good_a capacity_n he_o find_v at_o length_n how_o to_o satisfy_v himself_o of_o the_o insufficiency_n of_o all_o the_o minister_n proof_n on_o be_v half_a of_o the_o divinity_n of_o our_o saviour_n only_o he_o be_v puzzle_v with_o this_o context_n out_o of_o the_o philippian_n that_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o god_n and_o think_v it_o not_o robbery_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n etc._n etc._n after_o much_o think_n he_o imagine_v that_o he_o can_v give_v a_o reasonable_a account_n even_o of_o this_o context_n all_o but_o that_o one_o expression_n he_o think_v it_o not_o robbery_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n here_o he_o stick_v for_o if_o christ_n be_v equal_a with_o god_n sure_o he_o be_v as_o the_o church_n say_v a_o person_n of_o god_n or_o of_o the_o deity_n and_o the_o trinitarian_n doctrine_n must_v be_v true_a at_o length_n it_o come_v into_o his_o mind_n that_o there_o may_v be_v some_o error_n in_o the_o translation_n and_o therefore_o he_o ask_v his_o minister_n whether_o the_o word_n be_v altogether_o so_o in_o the_o true_a bible_n so_o he_o call_v the_o original_a greek_a as_o they_o be_v in_o the_o english_a bible_n i_o suspect_v say_v he_o that_o the_o word_n it_o in_o this_o clause_n he_o think_v it_o not_o robbery_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n be_v not_o in_o what_o you_o use_v to_o call_v the_o original_a and_o out_o of_o which_o you_o often_o correct_v our_o way_n of_o read_v in_o the_o english_a bibles_n i_o judge_v that_o the_o apostle_n say_v only_o he_o christ_n think_v not_o robbery_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n the_o minister_n be_v force_v to_o confess_v that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o greek_a and_o that_o it_o shall_v have_v be_v print_v as_o the_o word_n of_o
