the_o state_n of_o the_o people_n of_o the_o jew_n as_o bellarmine_n out_o of_o aquinas_n will_v have_v it_o but_o that_o it_o be_v natural_a and_o from_o the_o beginning_n and_o sure_o it_o be_v

prescription_n be_v but_o mere_o judicial_a he_o say_v 25._o the_o intendment_n of_o god_n in_o prescribe_v tithe_n be_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o certain_a equality_n among_o the_o part_n and_o tribe_n of_o his_o people_n and_o that_o therefore_o he_o allot_v the_o ten_o to_o the_o levite_n who_o be_v almost_o the_o ten_o part_n of_o his_o people_n and_o yet_o after_o he_o say_v 4._o the_o

of_o allow_v this_o proportion_n to_o the_o levite_n be_v for_o that_o they_o be_v little_o less_o than_o the_o ten_o part_n of_o the_o people_n that_o so_o they_o may_v have_v at_o least_o as_o much_o as_o the_o rest_n if_o not_o a_o little_a more_o especial_o see_v it_o may_v easy_o be_v prove_v that_o the_o city_n and_o suburb_n that_o be_v allow_v unto_o they_o by_o god_n himself_o beside_o the_o first-fruit_n &_o that_o part_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n which_o they_o have_v be_v as_o much_o as_o the_o possession_n of_o any_o tribe_n though_o they_o have_v have_v no_o tithe_n at_o all_o so_o that_o the_o possession_n of_o the_o levite_n and_o priest_n be_v more_o than_o the_o thirteen_o part_n of_o the_o whole_a land_n whereas_o they_o be_v not_o the_o sixty_v part_n and_o all_o the_o tithe_n first-fruit_n and_o a_o part_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v assign_v unto_o they_o beside_o it_o be_v most_o clear_a &_o evident_a the_o intendment_n of_o god_n in_o allow_v tithe_n unto_o the_o levite_n be_v not_o the_o equal_v of_o they_o and_o the_o rest_n but_o to_o conclude_v this_o point_n if_o we_o have_v neither_o the_o fact_n of_o abraham_n the_o vow_n of_o jacob_n the_o custom_n of_o the_o gentile_n before_o christ_n nor_o any_o other_o reason_n to_o persuade_v we_o that_o tithe_n be_v due_a by_o god_n law_n yet_o this_o very_a prescription_n in_o the_o time_n of_o moses_n law_n will_v prove_v sufficient_o that_o christian_n must_v yield_v the_o ten_o at_o the_o least_o of_o all_o their_o increase_n towards_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o minister_n for_o see_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v much_o more_o glorious_a than_o that_o of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o obligation_n of_o the_o people_n unto_o they_o strong_a there_o can_v be_v no_o doubt_n

and_o consequent_o that_o god_n have_v not_o leave_v it_o to_o man_n to_o determine_v what_o be_v a_o competent_a allowance_n for_o his_o servant_n as_o some_o think_v which_o thing_n may_v easy_o be_v prove_v if_o any_o man_n shall_v make_v any_o question_n of_o it_o for_o see_v they_o of_o levy_n tribe_n have_v so_o large_a a_o allowance_n whereas_o yet_o the_o most_o part_n of_o they_o be_v but_o ordinary_a levite_n and_o employ_v in_o mean_a service_n the_o priest_n be_v in_o comparison_n but_o a_o few_o and_o attend_v but_o by_o course_n once_o in_o 24_o week_n there_o be_v far_o

for_o if_o they_o have_v their_o allowance_n in_o money_n the_o price_n of_o thing_n often_o rise_v it_o may_v be_v too_o short_a neither_o will_v they_o have_v so_o sensible_a a_o fellow-feeling_n

of_o rome_n this_o be_v most_o false_a for_o howsoever_o he_o think_v it_o not_o impossible_a for_o the_o romanist_n to_o have_v a_o general_a council_n of_o those_o of_o their_o own_o faction_n yet_o
