but_o by_o the_o help_n of_o this_o scripture_n we_o may_v be_v able_a to_o resolve_v the_o most_o of_o they_o one_o be_v whether_o enoch_n be_v so_o translate_v that_o as_o a_o person_n privilege_v from_o the_o law_n of_o mortality_n he_o die_v not_o the_o scruple_n be_v ground_v upon_o two_o several_a phrase_n which_o be_v use_v by_o moses_n in_o the_o story_n of_o enoch_n gen._n 5._o 24._o first_o in_o that_o it_o be_v say_v god_n take_v he_o now_o this_o phrase_n of_o take_v away_o be_v use_v in_o scripture_n to_o set_v forth_o the_o bless_a departure_n of_o the_o saint_n out_o of_o this_o world_n by_o the_o ordinary_a way_n of_o dissolution_n thus_o isa_n 57_o 1._o merciful_a man_n be_v take_v away_o that_o be_v they_o die_v and_o job_n 32._o 22._o my_o maker_n will_v soon_o take_v i_o away_o that_o be_v he_o will_v take_v away_o my_o life_n he_o will_v kill_v i_o again_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o same_o scripture_n that_o enoch_n be_v not_o and_o this_o also_o be_v a_o phrase_n by_o which_o the_o scripture_n sometime_o point_v out_o the_o state_n of_o death_n so_o gen._n 42._o 36._o joseph_n be_v not_o and_o simeon_n be_v not_o that_o be_v they_o be_v both_o dead_a for_o so_o jacob_n at_o that_o time_n suppose_v they_o to_o be_v but_o this_o question_n be_v clear_o resolve_v by_o s._n paul_n in_o this_o scripture_n where_o he_o tell_v we_o plain_o enoch_n be_v translate_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o see_v death_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o see_v death_n that_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o die_v it_o be_v like_o that_o other_o phrase_n luk._n 9_o 27._o there_o be_v some_o here_o that_o shall_v not_o taste_v of_o death_n to_o see_v death_n and_o to_o taste_v of_o death_n be_v phrase_n borrow_v from_o two_o distinct_a sense_n but_o have_v both_o the_o same_o signification_n that_o be_v say_v s._n augustin_n mortem_fw-la non_fw-la experietur_fw-la he_o shall_v have_v no_o experience_n of_o death_n enoch_n be_v so_o far_o exempt_v from_o the_o law_n of_o death_n that_o he_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o taste_v it_o nè_fw-la primoribus_fw-la quidem_fw-la labiis_fw-la so_o far_o privilege_v that_o he_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o see_v it_o nè_fw-la primoribus_fw-la quidem_fw-la oculis_fw-la so_o his_o take_v away_o be_v not_o a_o take_v away_o of_o dissolution_n which_o imply_v mortality_n but_o a_o take_v away_o of_o translation_n which_o prevent_v death_n therefore_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o in_o gen._n 5._o where_o the_o life_n of_o the_o patriarch_n be_v record_v of_o all_o the_o rest_n who_o be_v mention_v both_o before_o and_o after_o enoch_n it_o run_v thus_o seth_n live_v so_o many_o year_n and_o he_o die_v methuselah_n so_o many_o year_n and_o he_o die_v but_o of_o enoch_n otherwise_o he_o live_v so_o many_o year_n and_o not_o say_v he_o die_v but_o to_o show_v that_o he_o be_v a_o privilege_a person_n moses_n give_v he_o a_o singular_a and_o privilegiate_n expression_n god_n take_v he_o again_o whereas_o it_o be_v there_o further_o express_v he_o be_v not_o if_o we_o take_v the_o phrase_n in_o its_o full_a rigour_n it_o signify_v a_o absolute_a nullity_n or_o annihilation_n but_o here_o it_o be_v so_o far_o from_o intend_v a_o annihilation_n that_o it_o do_v not_o betoken_v so_o much_o as_o a_o ordinary_a extinction_n by_o death_n it_o be_v true_a that_o as_o the_o latin_n be_v wont_a to_o express_v death_n by_o the_o word_n fuit_fw-la so_o the_o hebrew_n by_o a_o non_fw-la fuit_fw-la but_o in_o this_o place_n it_o do_v not_o signify_v so_o much_o therefore_o s._n paul_n in_o this_o text_n mollify_v the_o phrase_n by_o a_o word_n of_o supply_n non_fw-fr fuit_fw-la he_o be_v not_o that_o be_v non_fw-la fuit_fw-la inventus_fw-la he_o be_v not_o find_v he_o be_v not_o any_o more_o in_o a_o visible_a communion_n with_o man_n he_o be_v secret_o translate_v by_o god_n as_o moses_n secret_o bury_v by_o god_n it_o be_v not_o know_v what_o be_v become_v of_o he_o till_o god_n reveal_v it_o we_o see_v other_o man_n when_o they_o go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n even_o elias_n himself_o be_v see_v by_o elisha_n when_o he_o ascend_v but_o none_o of_o the_o patriarch_n see_v enoch_n go_v and_o be_v go_v he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v the_o son_n of_o the_o prophet_n may_v search_v and_o seek_v for_o he_o as_o they_o do_v for_o elias_n but_o not_o meet_v with_o he_o again_o as_o it_o be_v a_o secret_a so_o a_o total_a translation_n both_o in_o soul_n and_o body_n other_o saint_n though_o their_o soul_n be_v carry_v up_o on_o the_o wing_n of_o angel_n as_o lazarus_n be_v yet_o their_o body_n be_v to_o be_v find_v they_o remain_v behind_o and_o be_v lay_v asleep_a in_o their_o grave_n as_o s._n peter_n speak_v of_o the_o patriarch_n david_n act._n 2._o 29._o he_o be_v both_o dead_a
