any_o such_o thing_n or_o do_v his_o word_n sound_v or_o imply_v any_o thing_n to_o this_o purpose_n i_o absolute_o deny_v it_o he_o only_o say_v that_o christ_n forbid_v his_o disciple_n to_o swear_v

dispense_v with_o the_o jew_n for_o swear_v by_o his_o name_n that_o he_o may_v take_v they_o off_o from_o swear_v by_o false_a god_n because_o thereby_o they_o will_v acknowledge_v they_o and_o not_o

it_o be_v a_o act_n of_o religious_a worship_n as_o have_v be_v demonstrate_v but_o i_o demand_v again_o do_v god_n ever_o say_v by_o moses_n or_o any_o of_o his_o prophet_n thou_o shall_v not_o

god_n never_o do_v absolute_o forbid_v the_o jew_n to_o swear_v by_o his_o sacred_a name_n but_o only_o vain_o or_o false_o in_o the_o three_o commandment_n and_o this_o negative_a include_v a_o

to_o invocate_v or_o call_v upon_o god_n and_o so_o fall_v under_o the_o prophet_n curse_n 5.20_o isa_n 5.20_o woe_n unto_o he_o that_o call_v good_a evil_n and_o evil_a good_a consider_v this_o thou_o vain_a dare_a man_n who_o do_v plead_v for_o a_o dispensation_n to_o the_o jew_n which_o never_o come_v into_o any_o man_n head_n to_o think_v of_o but_o thou_o neither_o have_v thou_o think_v
