understand_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o and_o suchlike_a admonition_n which_o frequent_o occur_v in_o the_o apostle_n write_n two_o thing_n may_v be_v premise_v i._o that_o about_o the_o time_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n there_o arise_v one_o judas_n of_o galilee_n who_o be_v mention_v act_n 5.37_o preach_v seditrous_a doctrine_n to_o the_o people_n and_o teach_v as_o st._n jerom_n in_o his_o comment_n on_o my_o text_n observe_v that_o they_o ought_v to_o own_v no_o sovereign_a prince_n but_o god_n alone_o and_o if_o they_o pay_v their_o tithe_n to_o the_o priest_n they_o be_v discharge_v from_o pay_v tribute_n to_o the_o emperor_n and_o upon_o this_o account_v it_o be_v as_o st._n jerom_n believe_v that_o the_o pharisee_n ask_v our_o saviour_n that_o captious_a question_n be_v it_o lawful_a to_o give_v tribute_n to_o caesar_n or_o no_o matth._n 22.17_o now_o to_o this_o account_n anastasius_n nicenus_n add_v that_o the_o follower_n of_o this_o judas_n be_v very_o numerous_a and_o call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o gallilean_n and_o common_o look_v upon_o as_o man_n ill_o affect_v to_o the_o roman_a government_n particular_o because_o when_o they_o offer_v sacrifice_n they_o refuse_v to_o make_v supplication_n for_o the_o emperor_n and_o people_n of_o rome_n upon_o which_o account_n it_o be_v think_v that_o pilate_n the_o roman_a deputy_n of_o judea_n come_v upon_o they_o whilst_o they_o be_v sacrifice_v and_o put_v they_o to_o the_o sword_n mingle_v their_o blood_n with_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n as_o you_o may_v read_v luke_n 13.1_o and_o from_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n and_o his_o disciple_n be_v suspect_v of_o favour_v seditious_a doctrine_n because_o they_o come_v out_o of_o galilee_n as_o be_v observe_v by_o st._n chrisostom_n in_o his_o 23d_o homile_n on_o the_o roman_n wherein_o he_o say_v that_o great_a report_n be_v spread_v abroad_o as_o if_o the_o disciple_n be_v a_o factious_a seditious_a people_n and_o design_v against_o the_o government_n it_o must_v also_o be_v confess_v that_o many_o of_o the_o jew_n who_o be_v convert_v to_o the_o christian_a faith_n be_v not_o sufficient_o respectful_a to_o the_o high_a power_n which_o god_n providence_n have_v set_v over_o they_o for_o which_o mr._n calvin_n give_v this_o reason_n since_o the_o power_n that_o be_v then_o in_o be_v oppose_v themselves_o to_o our_o saviour_n christ_n they_o think_v they_o unworthy_a of_o respect_n and_o honour_n now_o what_o have_v be_v say_v concern_v the_o gallilean_a persuasion_n show_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o apostle_n do_v so_o frequent_o in_o their_o letter_n direct_v the_o christian_a church_n to_o loyalty_n or_o a_o due_a submission_n to_o magistrate_n 1._o to_o clear_v themselves_o from_o the_o false_a and_o scandalous_a imputation_n of_o have_v imbibe_v the_o doctrine_n of_o judas_n the_o gallilean_a and_o 2._o to_o undeceive_v all_o those_o that_o have_v be_v pervert_v by_o that_o seditious_a doctrine_n ii_o the_o second_o thing_n i_o will_v premise_v be_v that_o about_o the_o time_n when_o st._n paul_n write_v this_o epistle_n the_o people_n of_o crete_n which_o be_v titus_n his_o diocese_n be_v unruly_a and_o mutinous_a grotius_n say_v that_o they_o be_v always_o a_o factious_a people_n and_o for_o that_o reason_n st._n paul_n write_v to_o titus_n their_o bishop_n to_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n to_o be_v subject_a to_o principality_n and_o power_n to_o obey_v magistrate_n and_o to_o be_v ready_a to_o every_o good_a work_n i._o i_o shall_v take_v occasion_n from_o hence_o first_o to_o make_v a_o just_a comment_n upon_o the_o text._n ii_o to_o set_v forth_o the_o reason_n and_o ground_n upon_o which_o the_o apostle_n found_v their_o doctrine_n of_o obedience_n to_o civil_a magistrate_n and_o iii_o to_o apply_v these_o reason_n in_o conjunction_n with_o the_o occasion_n of_o this_o day_n be_v humiliation_n and_o i._n first_o it_o may_v be_v observe_v that_o st._n paul_n do_v not_o direct_a titus_n to_o teach_v the_o doctrine_n of_o civil_a obedience_n as_o a_o new_a thing_n but_o only_o to_o refresh_v their_o memory_n therewith_o to_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n etc._n etc._n for_o man_n can_v be_v suppose_v ignorant_a of_o the_o absolute_a necessity_n of_o government_n to_o the_o defence_n and_o support_v of_o society_n which_o be_v in_o effect_n to_o suppose_v that_o it_o be_v better_a to_o lead_v the_o live_v of_o beast_n than_o man_n and_o that_o the_o world_n be_v willing_a to_o lie_v under_o the_o continual_a calamity_n of_o war_n and_o opression_n fill_v only_o with_o a_o rout_n of_o fool_n and_o madman_n it_o be_v to_o suppose_v every_o single_a person_n willing_a to_o expose_v himself_o to_o the_o uncontrolled_a world_n and_o bid_v defiance_n to_o the_o unbounded_a power_n rage_n and_o malice_n of_o mankind_n we_o can_v but_o see_v ourselves_o link_v together_o by_o common_a want_n into_o public_a society_n and_o that_o these_o society_n can_v subsist_v unless_o they_o be_v uphold_v by_o the_o power_n of_o government_n who_o wisdom_n and_o justice_n must_v appear_v by_o a_o due_a administration_n of_o good_a law_n and_o from_o hence_o we_o can_v but_o see_v a_o necessity_n of_o principality_n and_o power_n of_o superior_a and_o inferior_a magistrate_n without_o who_o law_n can_v be_v neither_o make_v nor_o execute_v from_o whence_o it_o be_v very_o visible_a that_o subjection_n to_o a_o good_a government_n be_v as_o much_o our_o interest_n as_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n this_o be_v evident_a to_o the_o pythagorean_n sect_n of_o old_a who_o will_v not_o suffer_v the_o blood_n of_o any_o creature_n to_o be_v shed_v for_o their_o use_n but_o yet_o allow_v the_o sword_n of_o the_o magistrate_n to_o cut_v off_o malefactor_n the_o follow_a word_n in_o my_o text_n be_v principality_n and_o power_n now_o the_o word_n in_o the_o original_a signify_v something_o which_o be_v prime_n and_o principal_a must_v denote_v the_o supreme_a establish_v power_n from_o whence_o inferior_a authority_n be_v derive_v and_o be_v the_o same_o with_o the_o high_a power_n mention_v rom._n 13.1_o but_o because_o st._n paul_n speak_v of_o principality_n and_o power_n in_o the_o plural_a number_n it_o be_v likely_a that_o he_o allude_v to_o the_o distinction_n which_o be_v so_o common_a among_o the_o roman_n
