write_n and_o paraphrase_n upon_o the_o scripture_n be_v esteem_v comparable_a in_o that_o kind_n of_o paraphrastical_a write_n with_o any_o which_o have_v labour_v that_o way_n and_o if_o any_o man_n write_n be_v to_o be_v red_a in_o the_o church_n those_o paraphrase_n which_o in_o explaining_n the_o scripture_n go_v least_o from_o it_o and_o which_o keep_v not_o only_o the_o number_a of_o sentence_n but_o almost_o the_o very_a number_a of_o word_n be_v of_o all_o most_o fit_a to_o be_v red_a in_o the_o church_n see_v therefore_o i_o say_v the_o church_n of_o god_n then_o abstain_v from_o such_o interpretation_n in_o the_o church_n and_o content_a itself_o with_o the_o scripture_n it_o can_v not_o be_v but_o a_o most_o dangerous_a attempt_n to_o bring_v any_o thing_n into_o the_o church_n to_o be_v red_a besides_o the_o word_n of_o god_n this_o practice_n continue_v still_o in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n after_o the_o apostle_n time_n as_o may_v appear_v by_o the_o second_o apology_n of_o justin_n martyr_n which_o show_v that_o their_o manner_n be_v to_o read_v in_o the_o church_n the_o monument_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o of_o the_o apostle_n and_o if_o they_o

i_o have_v show_v before_o how_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v weigh_v &_o here_o also_o it_o be_v suspicious_a for_o that_o it_o be_v say_v that_o his_o advice_n be_v when_o the_o lord_n shall_v bless_v
