they_o to_o marry_v even_o after_o such_o their_o promise_n or_o vow_n i_o prove_v it_o note_v well_o what_o i_o say_v because_o so_o soon_o as_o he_o have_v will_v the_o young_a widow_n to_o marry_v in_o the_o 14._o verse_n forthwith_o in_o the_o 15._o verse_n he_o yield_v the_o reason_n of_o that_o his_o advice_n to_o wit_n because_o certain_a be_v already_o turn_v back_o after_o satan_n now_o in_o the_o 15._o verse_n he_o must_v needs_o speak_v of_o such_o widow_n as_o be_v receive_v into_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o church_n because_o none_o can_v be_v turn_v back_o from_o that_o to_o which_o they_o never_o be_v admit_v he_o therefore_o speak_v likewise_o of_o the_o betroth_a widow_n in_o the_o next_o verse_n before_o which_o i_o make_v evident_a three_o way_n first_o because_o otherwise_o his_o illation_n in_o the_o 15._o verse_n shall_v be_v foolish_a &_o frivolous_a foolish_a because_o it_o can_v have_v no_o connexion_n with_o the_o 14._o verse_n frivolous_a for_o that_o it_o can_v not_o conclude_v his_o purpose_n second_o because_o he_o have_v already_o in_o the_o 11._o verse_n charge_v the_o bishop_n timothy_n not_o to_o receive_v any_o widow_n under_o the_o age_n of_o 60._o year_n this_o conclusion_n therefore_o be_v make_v touch_v the_o widow_n not_o yet_o admit_v he_o go_v forward_a and_o give_v his_o advice_n for_o the_o young_a widow_n than_o receive_v of_o the_o church_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v for_o as_o much_o as_o some_o of_o the_o young_a sort_n have_v already_o be_v wanton_a and_o follow_v sathan_n and_o there_o be_v also_o danger_n in_o the_o rest_n i_o decree_v that_o hereafter_o none_o under_o 60._o year_n be_v receive_v and_o i_o exhort_v the_o young_a already_o receive_v and_o desirous_a to_o marry_v to_o betake_v themselves_o to_o holy_a wedlock_n to_o bring_v forth_o child_n to_o be_v housewife_n and_o so_o to_o give_v no_o occasion_n to_o the_o adversary_n to_o speak_v evil_a three_o because_o otherwise_o saint_n paul_n

dead_a corpse_n of_o hermannus_n be_v adore_v for_o a_o saint_n twenty_o year_n at_o ferrara_n who_o yet_o be_v a_o heretic_n bonifac_o as_o write_v their_o own_o platina_n the_o first_o objection_n they_o be_v undoubted_o the_o true_a relic_n of_o true_a saint_n which_o the_o church_n appoint_v to_o be_v adore_v every_o where_n and_o saint_n austen_n speak_v only_o against_o private_a abuse_n of_o certain_a private_a person_n not_o against_o the_o general_a practice_n of_o y_fw-fr e_o universal_a church_n for_o the_o use_n of_o the_o church_n be_v first_o to_o canonize_v the_o saint_n and_o after_o to_o propose_v his_o relic_n to_o be_v adore_v which_o church_n be_v therein_o direct_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n can_v err_v as_o you_o imagine_v the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o how_o your_o church_n both_o may_v err_v and_o have_v err_v the_o facto_fw-la be_v already_o prove_v i_o say_v second_o that_o your_o abuse_n be_v as_o general_a as_o your_o relic_n for_o you_o all_o teach_v to_o adore_v all_o your_o relic_n religious_o in_o all_o place_n wheresoever_o insomuch_o as_o your_o own_o ludovicus_n vives_z grant_v civet_n that_o many_o christian_n do_v sin_n no_o less_o in_o adore_v their_o image_n and_o relic_n then_o do_v the_o gentile_n in_o adore_v their_o false_a god_n i_o say_v three_o that_o your_o worship_v of_o relic_n be_v flat_o reprove_v by_o s._n paul_n in_o what_o manner_n soever_o you_o do_v it_o 2.23_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n yield_v this_o reason_n because_o it_o be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d voluntary_a worship_n not_o contain_v in_o god_n word_n i_o say_v four_o that_o if_o christ_n cross_n must_v therefore_o be_v adore_v because_o it_o touch_v christ_n body_n which_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o popish_a adoration_n even_o so_o ought_v the_o lip_n of_o judas_n to_o be_v adore_v because_o they_o touch_v christ_n sacred_a mouth_n this_o reason_n be_v invincible_a if_o it_o be_v well_o urge_v i_o say_v fift_o that_o the_o pope_n may_v err_v in_o canonise_a your_o saint_n 17●_n as_o your_o own_o doctor_n melchior_n canus_n tell_v you_o neither_o can_v aquinas_n indeed_o deny_v the_o same_o and_o certes_o as_o the_o pope_n may_v err_v in_o canonise_a your_o saint_n so_o may_v he_o much_o more_o err_v in_o determine_v such_o and_o such_o relic_n to_o be_v the_o body_n bone_n or_o ash_n of_o such_o and_o such_o saint_n and_o consequent_o so_o may_v all_o papist_n adore_v they_o commit_v idolatry_n yea_o though_o it_o be_v grant_v that_o true_a relic_n may_v be_v adore_v because_o as_o s._n austen_n grave_o say_v their_o relic_n be_v adore_v on_o earth_n who_o soul_n be_v broil_v in_o hell_n fire_n i_o say_v sixth_o that_o when_o the_o pope_n take_v upon_o he_o not_o only_o to_o canonize_v saint_n but_o withal_o not_o to_o err_v in_o so_o do_v he_o doubtless_o challenge_v to_o himself_o the_o authority_n of_o god_n omnipotent_a and_o may_v therefore_o fit_o be_v call_v antichrist_n howsoever_o the_o jesuite_n and_o his_o other_o vassal_n labour_v to_o defend_v he_o in_o this_o the_o second_o objection_n 19_o if_o it_o be_v not_o a_o godly_a act_n to_o adore_v holy_a relic_n &_o to_o translate_v they_o from_o place_n to_o place_n as_o the_o church_n have_v a_o long_a time_n use_v holy_a moses_n who_o have_v god_n spirit_n large_o will_v never_o have_v so_o reverence_v the_o dead_a body_n of_o s._n joseph_n nor_o yet_o have_v carry_v it_o so_o many_o mile_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o the_o flesh_n of_o joseph_n body_n be_v whole_o consume_v and_o nothing_o leave_v but_o bone_n and_o ash_n for_o the_o israelite_n abode_n in_o egypt_n about_o 215._o year_n after_o the_o death_n of_o holy_a joseph_n i_o say_v second_o that_o as_o the_o wicked_a gain_n nothing_o by_o be_v bury_v in_o temple_n after_o the_o christian_n manner_n even_o so_o neither_o be_v the_o godly_a worse_o for_o be_v bury_v in_o place_n profane_a for_o they_o who_o die_v in_o the_o war_n for_o the_o service_n of_o their_o sovereign_n and_o defence_n of_o their_o native_a country_n be_v doubtless_o in_o as_o good_a case_n notwithstanding_o their_o base_a kind_n of_o funeral_n as_o if_o they_o have_v die_v at_o home_n and_o be_v bury_v with_o all_o pomp_n and_o solemnity_n i_o say_v three_o that_o the_o translation_n of_o s._n josephes_n bone_n out_o of_o egypt_n be_v not_o for_o religion_n sake_n whereof_o holy_a writ_n make_v no_o mention_n but_o to_o show_v his_o hope_n and_o confidence_n in_o god_n promise_n and_o to_o confirm_v the_o faith_n of_o his_o brethren_n for_o these_o be_v the_o word_n god_n will_v sure_o visit_v you_o and_o you_o shall_v take_v my_o bone_n away_o hence_o with_o you_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v have_v full_a trust_n in_o god_n promise_n for_o your_o deliverance_n for_o undoubted_o god_n will_v bring_v you_o into_o the_o land_n of_o chanaan_n as_o he_o have_v say_v and_o for_o the_o better_a confirmation_n thereof_o 22._o i_o appoint_v my_o bone_n to_o be_v take_v with_o you_o thither_o and_o for_o this_o end_n do_v the_o apostle_n ascribe_v this_o charge_n give_v to_o josephes_n brethren_n to_o the_o great_a commendation_n of_o his_o faith_n the_o three_o objection_n the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o helcana_fw-la and_o anna_n his_o wife_n go_v thrice_o in_o the_o year_n on_o pilgrimage_n to_o jerusalem_n 16._o sundry_a of_o the_o greek_n leave_v their_o own_o country_n and_o come_v to_o adore_v in_o jerusalem_n the_o eunuch_n come_v from_o far_o to_o adore_v in_o the_o same_o place_n s._n paul_n himself_o make_v haste_n in_o his_o journey_n that_o he_o may_v keep_v pentecost_n at_o jerusalem_n christ_n likewise_o with_o his_o mother_n mary_n and_o s._n joseph_n her_o husband_n come_v on_o pilgrimage_n to_o jerusalem_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o god_n appoint_v his_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n 1.10.13_o to_o be_v the_o peculiar_a place_n of_o his_o external_a worship_n and_o that_o all_o his_o people_n shall_v repair_v thither_o at_o three_o several_a time_n in_o the_o year_n to_o wit_n at_o easter_n pentecost_n and_o the_o feast_n of_o tabernacle_n approve_v so_o that_o s._n joseph_n s._n marry_o s._n anna_n and_o helcana_fw-la go_v to_o jerusalem_n at_o that_o day_n even_o as_o we_o do_v now_o to_o the_o church_n to_o hear_v divine_a service_n and_o sermon_n and_o therefore_o their_o pilgrimage_n be_v honourable_a and_o high_o to_o be_v commend_v i_o say_v second_o that_o christ_n himself_o go_v not_o of_o any_o necessity_n but_o for_o our_o sake_n 5.17_o and_o to_o give_v we_o a_o example_n of_o obedience_n and_o humility_n for_o he_o come_v to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n not_o to_o dissolve_v the_o same_o i_o say_v three_o that_o saint_n paul_n haste_v thither_o for_o the_o gospel_n sake_n because_o then_o there_o will_v be_v great_a concourse_n of_o people_n who_o he_o desire_v to_o instruct_v with_o godly_a sermon_n i_o say_v four_o that_o as_o josephus_n write_v sundry_a of_o the_o convert_v gentile_n as_o the_o eunuch_n cornelius_z and_o other_o use_v to_o resort_v to_o jerusalem_n with_o the_o disperse_a jew_n where_o they_o adore_v the_o live_a god_n then_o as_o we_o do_v now_o in_o the_o church_n near_o at_o home_o but_o they_o go_v not_o to_o adore_v stock_n and_o stone_n as_o the_o papist_n do_v nor_o to_o put_v religion_n in_o dead_a creature_n the_o four_o objection_n go_v on_o pilgrimage_n be_v a_o very_a ancient_a custom_n and_o that_o for_o religion_n sake_n for_o s._n alexander_n a_o most_o holy_a martyr_n who_o live_v above_o a_o thousand_o and_o two_o hundred_o year_n ago_o 9_o go_v for_o that_o end_n to_o jerusalem_n as_o write_v eusebius_n in_o his_o history_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o to_o go_v on_o pilgrimage_n be_v a_o holy_a and_o ancient_a thing_n indeed_o as_o which_o both_o christ_n himself_o s._n paul_n and_o other_o holy_a man_n have_v practise_v as_o i_o have_v already_o grant_v i_o say_v second_o that_o though_o saint_n alexander_n have_v a_o great_a affection_n to_o see_v those_o place_n where_o christ_n have_v be_v present_a and_o wrought_v his_o miracle_n sin_n yet_o do_v he_o neither_o think_v his_o prayer_n more_o acceptable_a in_o y_z e_z place_n then_o in_o a_o other_o nor_o yet_o think_v his_o journey_n to_o be_v any_o part_n of_o satisfaction_n for_o his_o sin_n for_o he_o know_v right_o well_o 23._o
