justin_n martyr_n challenge_v as_o corrupt_v by_o the_o jew_n but_o the_o hebrew_n also_o for_o after_o he_o have_v defend_v the_o version_n of_o the_o lxx_o then_o among_o the_o christian_n to_o have_v be_v exact_o true_a in_o the_o place_n before_o speak_v of_o and_o have_v challenge_v the_o jew_n p._n 297._o for_o have_v erase_v out_o of_o they_o many_o entire_a passage_n which_o foretell_v the_o crucifixion_n of_o jesus_n christ_n god_n and_o man_n which_o place_n because_o the_o jew_n deny_v to_o belong_v unto_o the_o scripture_n justin_n promise_v to_o make_v good_a his_o general_a charge_n out_o of_o those_o very_a scripture_n which_o the_o jew_n acknowledge_v to_o be_v genuine_a and_o according_o produce_v a_o passage_n out_o of_o esdras_n two_o out_o of_o isaiah_n and_o that_o of_o psal_n 96._o 10_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d which_o observation_n he_o have_v make_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n which_o the_o jew_n read_v in_o their_o synagogue_n p._n 298._o and_o he_o add_v these_o corruption_n or_o at_o least_o one_o have_v creep_v in_o very_o late_o to_o all_o which_o trypho_n have_v not_o a_o word_n to_o say_v it_o hence_o appear_v that_o justin_n argue_v not_o out_o of_o his_o own_o single_a copy_n of_o the_o lxx_o which_o mr._n o._n seem_v to_o grant_v have_v these_o passage_n but_o out_o of_o many_o copy_n use_v in_o the_o jewish_a synagogue_n which_o the_o father_n have_v carefu_o examine_v and_o in_o all_o likelihood_n hebrew_n copy_n too_o in_o palestine_n of_o syria_n whereof_o he_o be_v a_o native_a nor_o can_v we_o suppose_v justin_n martyr_n argue_v from_o his_o own_o greek_a copy_n only_o but_o those_o common_o in_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o christian_n he_o have_v more_o sense_n than_o so_o to_o impose_v upon_o himself_o and_o trypho_n too_o 3._o it_o must_v be_v confess_v it_o be_v a_o wonder_n that_o even_o after_o justin_n have_v thus_o note_v these_o corruption_n the_o christian_n shall_v not_o have_v amend_v they_o but_o i_o can_v produce_v mr._n o._n a_o like_a instance_n which_o must_v be_v acknowledge_v parallel_n all_o the_o hebrew_n copy_n that_o we_o have_v as_o far_o as_o i_o can_v learn_v and_o i_o in_o particular_a have_v that_o of_o psal_n 22._o 16._o as_o a_o lion_n instead_o of_o they_o pierce_v and_o i_o have_v consult_v pagnine_a who_o render_v it_o tanquam_fw-la leo_fw-la though_o in_o the_o margin_n he_o have_v foderunt_fw-la and_o though_o all_o agree_v that_o they_o pierce_v be_v the_o true_a read_n and_o though_o some_o seem_v to_o have_v find_v a_o few_o copy_n in_o hebrew_a which_o have_v it_o so_o yet_o for_o the_o two_o age_n last_o pass_v wherein_o learning_n have_v superabounded_a they_o have_v not_o correct_v this_o erratum_n our_o belove_a jew_n doubtless_o will_v not_o suffer_v we_o and_o we_o haply_o be_v as_o unwilling_a as_o they_o lest_o the_o infallibility_n of_o the_o hebrew_n text_n to_o a_o title_n like_o that_o of_o the_o roman_a church_n shall_v come_v to_o nothing_o for_o this_o change_n will_v be_v a_o open_a acknowledgement_n of_o its_o corruption_n let_v then_o mr._n fuller_n call_v i_o foulmouth_n and_o mr._n o._n blasphemer_n i_o be_o still_o of_o opinion_n and_o do_v aver_v upon_o the_o authority_n of_o j._n m._n that_o the_o hebrew_n copy_n the_o jewish_a lxx_o and_o both_o have_v receive_v some_o corruption_n but_o to_o return_v if_o the_o place_n have_v be_v find_v in_o any_o of_o the_o hebrew_n copy_n in_o the_o day_n of_o justin_n it_o have_v be_v a_o easy_a matter_n for_o tryph●_n and_o the_o jew_n to_o have_v appeal_v to_o the_o original_a hebrew_n verity_n for_o their_o justification_n and_o retort_v upon_o j._n martyr_n that_o the_o christian_n rather_o have_v be_v the_o author_n of_o the_o forementioned_a interpolation_n for_o the_o support_n and_o advancement_n of_o their_o religion_n they_o may_v the_o more_o confident_o have_v do_v this_o if_o j._n m._n have_v not_o understand_v the_o hebrew_n the_o chronological_a argument_n i_o will_v not_o meddle_v with_o i_o must_v either_o transcribe_v vossius_fw-la or_o waste_v more_o time_n and_o paper_n than_o be_v needful_a since_o any_o one_o may_v have_v the_o entire_a argument_n at_o the_o fountain_n head_n but_o to_o treat_v of_o it_o in_o short_a as_o mr._n o._n have_v do_v and_o overlook_a the_o most_o and_o the_o best_a of_o the_o argument_n will_v be_v to_o small_a purpose_n only_o remember_v that_o vossius_fw-la establish_v the_o chronology_n of_o the_o lxx_o by_o the_o testimony_n of_o josephus_n between_o who_o there_o be_v a_o very_a near_o agreement_n and_o all_o the_o world_n know_v that_o josephus_n be_v a_o learned_a man_n a_o saithful_a historian_n a_o jewish_a priest_n and_o interpreter_n of_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o can_v not_o be_v very_o much_o mistake_v in_o this_o matter_n but_o whereas_o mr._n o._n suggest_v p._n 70._o that_o upon_o this_o principle_n of_o 6000_o year_n we_o can_v prove_v christ_n be_v yet_o come_v i_o reply_v 1._o it_o may_v upon_o that_o very_a principle_n be_v prove_v if_o we_o will_v admit_v as_o we_o ought_v the_o lxx_o into_o our_o assistance_n 2._o suppose_v the_o hebrew_n chronology_n right_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a for_o we_o to_o follow_v the_o jewish_a principle_n of_o 6000_o year_n it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o say_v let_v what_o will_v become_v of_o the_o chronology_n whether_o it_o be_v 4_o or_o 6000_o year_n that_o the_o time_n of_o christ_n appearance_n in_o the_o flesh_n be_v come_v in_o the_o day_n of_o augustus_n cesar_n when_o both_o jew_n and_o samaritan_n be_v big_a with_o expectation_n of_o he_o and_o thereby_o acknowledge_v the_o time_n to_o be_v fulfil_v which_o time_n if_o they_o believe_v to_o be_v 6000_o year_n it_o be_v not_o unlikely_a but_o they_o corrupt_v the_o hebrew_n chronology_n to_o justify_v their_o not_o believe_v and_o crucify_a he_o the_o instance_n of_o cainan_n luke_n 3._o in_o christ_n genealogy_n leave_v out_o of_o the_o hebrew_n be_v so_o clear_a that_o one_o may_v just_o admire_v good_a author_n shall_v so_o toil_v and_o sweat_n to_o avoid_v luke_n testimony_n and_o all_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o hebrew_n verity_n i_o can_v give_v a_o plausible_a reason_n why_o the_o jew_n may_v leave_v cainan_n out_o of_o the_o heb._n viz._n because_o thereby_o they_o will_v disparage_v and_o overthrow_v luke_n genealogy_n and_o spoil_v his_o credit_n among_o the_o nation_n as_o for_o other_o addition_n unto_o the_o lxx_o it_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o point_n it_o be_v confess_v the_o lxx_o have_v be_v corrupt_v but_o it_o be_v i_o will_v not_o say_v blasphemy_n to_o impute_v corruption_n unto_o that_o place_n which_o have_v receive_v testimony_n from_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n by_o the_o pen_n of_o luke_n but_o say_v dr._n lightfoot_n luke_n must_v follow_v the_o heathen_n bibles_n in_o his_o quotation_n that_o be_v luke_n a_o inspire_a penman_n debet_fw-la as_o jerom_n before_o he_o must_v leave_v the_o hebrew_n verity_n and_o transcribe_v out_o of_o a_o corrupt_a version_n of_o the_o scripture_n some_o haply_o will_v think_v this_o not_o far_o off_o blasphemy_n but_o i_o will_v not_o reflect_v so_o severe_o on_o that_o worthy_a and_o learned_a gentleman_n 2._o the_o doctor_n add_v luke_n be_v but_o a_o copyer_n and_o not_o a_o corrector_n but_o he_o be_v a_o

lxx_o will_v then_o have_v call_v luke_n be_v veracity_n into_o question_n a._n so_o they_o do_v if_o jerom_n be_v to_o be_v believe_v however_o luke_n ought_v not_o doubtless_o do_v not_o value_v this_o let_v god_n be_v true_a but_o every_o man_n a_o lyar._n shall_v a_o inspire_a writer_n value_v his_o own_o veracity_n above_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n word_n the_o dr._n confess_v luke_n in_o
