holy_a scripture_n have_v hold_v opinion_n and_o be_v of_o the_o belief_n that_o those_o angel_n which_o appear_v to_o the_o patriarch_n and_o prophet_n do_v not_o appear_v in_o any_o body_n nor_o do_v assume_v unto_o they_o any_o body_n to_o make_v themselves_o visible_a and_o of_o this_o opinion_n among_o other_o be_v rabbi_n moses_n one_o of_o the_o most_o learned_a rabbin_n of_o the_o jew_n who_o say_v that_o all_o that_o which_o be_v read_v and_o record_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n of_o the_o apparition_n of_o angel_n do_v come_v by_o a_o imaginary_a vision_n that_o be_v to_o say_v sometime_o in_o sleep_v and_o sometime_o in_o wake_v but_o this_o position_n as_o saint_n thomas_n of_o aquin_n call_v it_o 7._o the_o aquin_n quest_n de_fw-la miracalis_fw-la arti._n 7._o can_v prevail_v against_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o scripture_n for_o by_o the_o phrase_n and_o manner_n of_o speech_n which_o be_v usual_a in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n it_o be_v easy_a to_o know_v and_o discern_v a_o difference_n that_o which_o be_v signify_v and_o declare_v to_o have_v appear_v pure_o and_o simple_o to_o our_o eye_n from_o that_o which_o be_v say_v to_o be_v do_v by_o the_o mean_n of_o a_o prophetical_a vision_n for_o when_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v understand_v that_o any_o apparition_n be_v make_v by_o way_n of_o vision_n there_o be_v some_o word_n put_v down_o and_o insert_v which_o do_v proper_o appertain_v to_o the_o vision_n such_o as_o the_o scripture_n do_v intend_v as_o in_o ezechiel_n 8._o ezechiel_n ce_fw-fr 8._o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o

that_o thing_n be_v say_v to_o be_v do_v simple_o we_o ought_v to_o understand_v they_o as_o do_v simple_o and_o true_o now_o we_o read_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n that_o many_o apparition_n have_v
