to_o the_o sanhedrim_n demand_v the_o prophet_n jeremiah_n make_v answer_v behold_v he_o be_v in_o your_o hand_n for_o the_o king_n be_v not_o he_o that_o can_v do_v any_o thing_n without_o you_o out_o of_o which_o word_n you_o will_v infer_v first_o that_o the_o king_n according_a to_o the_o opinion_n of_o some_o of_o the_o talmudist_n be_v not_o to_o judge_v in_o some_o case_n which_o whether_o he_o be_v or_o not_o be_v not_o much_o material_a most_o king_n conceive_v it_o most_o agreeable_a to_o their_o own_o ease_n &_o the_o content_a of_o their_o subject_n to_o divolve_v that_o power_n upon_o their_o judge_n oblige_v by_o oath_n to_o administer_v equal_a justice_n betwixt_o the_o king_n and_o his_o people_n you_o infer_v second_o from_o those_o word_n that_o the_o sanhedrim_n be_v coordinate_a with_o the_o king_n of_o judah_n though_o there_o be_v no_o such_o matter_n in_o they_o my_o answer_n unto_o this_o objection_n and_o my_o reason_n for_o it_o you_o

the_o matter_n plain_o and_o my_o reason_n be_v that_o calvin_n who_o be_v say_v by_o some_o to_o have_v compose_v his_o exposition_n on_o the_o scripture_n according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o
