may_v see_v in_o the_o 27_o of_o number_n where_o god_n command_v moses_n to_o give_v joshua_n part_n of_o his_o glory_n but_o in_o the_o same_o chapt._n you_o may_v see_v that_o he_o subject_v

dei_fw-la quem_fw-la locutus_fw-la est_fw-la super_fw-la domo_fw-la eli_n in_o silo._n this_o action_n therefore_o of_o his_o do_v not_o at_o all_o prove_v he_o to_o be_v superior_a to_o the_o

from_o thence_o into_o the_o right_a line_n by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o same_o god_n who_o be_v please_v in_o several_a thing_n to_o order_n and_o direct_v those_o king_n of_o israel_n govern_v as_o it_o be_v by_o they_o this_o make_v josephus_n to_o affirm_v in_o his_o second_o book_n against_o appio_n that_o god_n do_v not_o so_o much_o institute_v in_o israel_n a_o monarchy_n as_o a_o theocracy_n or_o deiarchy_n but_o now_o if_o this_o action_n of_o salomon_n depose_v adonias_n be_v construe_v in_o favour_n of_o the_o prince_n as_o if_o he_o thereby_o be_v superior_a to_o the_o highpriest_n the_o clergy_n have_v as_o strong_a a_o argument_n for_o their_o superiority_n in_o samuel_n declare_v king_n saul_n dethrone_v but_o i_o look_v on_o both_o these_o example_n as_o extraordinary_a and_o consequent_o not_o presidential_n the_o next_o example_n be_v david_n but_o he_o be_v likewise_o king_n and_o prophet_n what_o can_v be_v allege_v concern_v he_o be_v answer_v in_o what_o be_v say_v of_o solomon_n it_o be_v moreover_o mention_v of_o he_o that_o what_o he_o do_v in_o church_n matter_n be_v juxta_fw-la omne_fw-la quae_fw-la scripta_fw-la sunt_fw-la in_o lege_fw-la domini_fw-la as_o for_o the_o example_n of_o ezechias_n though_o it_o be_v grant_v he_o constitute_v levite_n in_o the_o house_n of_o god_n yet_o in_o the_o second_o book_n paralip_n cap._n 29._o you_o may_v perceive_v that_o what_o he_o do_v herein_o be_v secundum_fw-la dispositionem_fw-la david_n &_o gad_n videntis_fw-la &_o nathan_n prophetae_fw-la siquidem_fw-la domini_fw-la praeceptum_fw-la fuit_fw-la per_fw-la manum_fw-la prophetarum_fw-la ejus_fw-la and_o herein_o you_o will_v likewise_o find_v that_o he_o be_v much_o rule_v by_o isaias_n as_o in_o eccles_n 48._o 25._o fecit_fw-la ezechias_n quod_fw-la placuit_fw-la deo_fw-la &_o fortiter_fw-la ivit_fw-la in_o via_fw-la david_n patris_fw-la svi_fw-la quam_fw-la mandavit_fw-la illi_fw-la isaias_n thus_o you_o may_v perceive_v that_o the_o example_n of_o these_o king_n be_v not_o at_o all_o apposite_a to_o your_o point_n they_o not_o prove_v that_o prince_n by_o their_o sole_a royal_a power_n may_v intermeddle_v in_o church_n affair_n or_o reform_v religion_n in_o its_o substance_n enact_v thing_n by_o their_o own_o authority_n contrary_a to_o the_o assent_n of_o god_n highpriest_n and_o prophet_n some_o king_n by_o extraordinary_a command_n as_o king_n and_o prophet_n do_v concern_v themselves_o in_o church_n affair_n other_o not_o without_o consent_n and_o assistance_n of_o the_o priest_n do_v very_o laudable_o use_v their_o utmost_a power_n to_o destroy_v idolatry_n and_o restore_v discipline_n but_o which_o of_o they_o disow_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o highpriest_n abrogate_a his-power_n and_o invest_v himself_o with_o it_o now_o that_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n be_v not_o supreme_a in_o church_n matter_n seem_v evident_a by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n speak_v to_o the_o highpriest_n eliakim_n in_o isaias_n 22._o where_o after_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o give_v he_o the_o key_n of_o david_n he_o explain_v to_o he_o the_o power_n of_o it_o et_fw-la aperiet_fw-la &_o non_fw-la erit_fw-la qui_fw-la claudat_fw-la &_o claudet_fw-la &_o non_fw-la erit_fw-la qui_fw-la aperiat_fw-la by_o which_o he_o plain_o make_v he_o supreme_a in_o church_n affair_n no_o person_n whatsoever_o be_v able_a to_o exclude_v who_o he_o open_v to_o or_o to_o introduce_v who_o he_o shut_v out_o and_o to_o sinew_v this_o argument_n with_o a_o strong_a nerve_n you_o will_v find_v that_o jehosophat_n who_o be_v a_o religious_a prince_n will_v not_o handle_v church_n affair_n know_v that_o they_o belong_v to_o the_o highpriest_n as_o in_o paralip_n 2._o 19_o ananias_n autem_fw-la sacerdos_n &_o pontifex_n vester_fw-ge in_fw-ge his_o quae_fw-la ad_fw-la deum_fw-la pertinent_a praesidebit_fw-la and_o on_o the_o contrary_a osias_n who_o presume_v to_o usurp_v the_o sacerdotal_a function_n and_o offer_v incense_n to_o god_n be_v by_o the_o incense_a deity_n strike_v with_o leprosy_n by_o what_o i_o have_v mention_v it_o will_v clear_o appear_v how_o irrational_a it_o be_v for_o you_o to_o produce_v the_o jewish_a king_n as_o example_n to_o justify_v your_o former_a king_n exorbitant_a tamper_n in_o church_n affair_n there_o be_v no_o parallel_n at_o all_o betwixt_o they_o they_o act_v therein_o as_o king_n and_o prophet_n authorize_v by_o god_n extraordinary_a commission_n and_o in_o their_o reformation_n join_v with_o the_o highpriest_n whereas_o you_o be_v in_o opposition_n to_o he_o and_o warrant_v by_o nothing_o but_o secular_a may_v but_o now_o after_o all_o this_o if_o you_o can_v clear_o prove_v that_o the_o jewish_a king_n be_v superior_a to_o the_o highpriest_n and_o supreme_a quatenùs_fw-la king_n in_o church_n affair_n it_o will_v not_o follow_v that_o that_o similitude_n shall_v hold_v good_a among_o christian_n the_o priesthood_n in_o

you_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o quarrel_v with_o the_o church_n for_o this_o it_o may_v have_v be_v begin_v several_a hundred_o year_n past_a for_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v that_o this_o nation_n use_v
