A45157	A second discourse about re-ordination being an answer to two or three books come out against this subject, in behalf of the many concern'd at this season, who for the sake of their ministry, and upon necessity, do yield to it, in defence of their submission / by John Humfrey, min. ; together, with his testimony, which from the good hand of the Lord, is laid upon himself, to bear, in this generation, against the evil, and to prevent, or repress (as much as by him may be possible) the danger, of the imposition.	Humfrey, John, 1621-1719.	1662 (1662)	Wing H3709; ESTC R9881	127,714	152

about_o it_o it_o appear_v to_o i_o that_o both_o what_o this_o author_n say_v may_v be_v full_o answer_v and_o what_o i_o have_v be_v for_o the_o main_n not_o touch_v or_o in_o the_o weight_n not_o

say_v in_o the_o first_o place_n exod._n 29.9_o the_o priest_n office_n shall_v be_v aaron_n and_o his_o son_n for_o a_o perpetual_a statute_n i_o gather_v from_o hence_o that_o the_o right_n power_n dignity_n office_n of_o priesthood_n do_v flow_v immediate_o upon_o the_o priest_n under_o the_o law_n from_o this_o statute_n which_o be_v undoubted_o god_n will_v appoint_v of_o it_o if_o the_o spiritual_a power_n or_o authority_n of_o the_o priest_n as_o our_o book_n of_o order_n call_v we_o come_v only_o by_o such_o a_o delegation_n that_o conveighe_v the_o same_o through_o man_n hand_n than_o be_v the_o priest_n under_o the_o law_n no_o priest_n or_o have_v no_o power_n for_o they_o be_v not_o ordain_v priest_n but_o bear_v priest_n and_o this_o right_a and_o power_n of_o priesthood_n be_v they_o we_o see_v express_o by_o this_o statute_n for_o ever_o we_o read_v indeed_o of_o the_o priest_n sanctify_v themselves_o often_o to_o some_o particular_a work_n as_o to_o carry_v the_o ark_n to_o cleanse_v the_o sanctuary_n and_o the_o like_a but_o we_o read_v not_o that_o they_o be_v to_o be_v consecrate_v to_o their_o office_n as_o i_o yet_o find_v we_o read_v indeed_o that_o the_o high_a priest_n as_o he_o succeed_v be_v to_o be_v consecrate_v and_o anoint_v and_o so_o aaron_n garment_n be_v keep_v on_o purpose_n but_o forasmuch_o as_o this_o dignity_n itself_o of_o the_o high_a priesthood_n come_v also_o by_o birth_n it_o be_v apparent_a that_o their_o anoint_v and_o consecration_n do_v not_o give_v they_o their_o right_n and_o office_n but_o

the_o rest_n of_o the_o priest_n we_o read_v of_o one_o consecration_n only_o by_o moses_n at_o once_o for_o all_o of_o they_o leu._n 8._o exod._n 29._o and_o certain_o we_o may_v conceive_v if_o

shall_v not_o one_o consecration_n it_o be_v like_o have_v suffice_v for_o all_o but_o he_o will_v have_v command_v every_o one_o of_o they_o to_o be_v particular_o consecrate_v or_o set_v apart_o for_o the_o receive_v that_o power_n by_o man_n in_o their_o generation_n beside_o when_o aaron_n son_n be_v consecrate_v at_o once_o by_o moses_n this_o be_v all_o you_o shall_v find_v in_o it_o a_o
