there_o must_v be_v thirteen_o month_n by_o reason_n of_o a_o month_n intercalar_a call_v by_o the_o late_a jew_n veader_n or_o another_o adar_n but_o the_o scripture_n make_v no_o mention_n of_o

which_o of_o they_o be_v mean_v answ_n and_o why_o so_o it_o need_v not_o answ_n unless_o there_o have_v be_v two_o adar_n in_o every_o year_n it_o be_v only_o the_o embolismall_a year_n which_o

we_o therefore_o conclude_v that_o no_o month_n have_v thirty_o day_n but_o that_o the_o vanity_n of_o this_o objection_n may_v further_o appear_v this_o i_o say_v that_o though_o the_o scripture_n give_v no_o express_a mention_n of_o the_o month_n intercalar_n yet_o some_o clear_a footing_n of_o it_o may_v be_v see_v there_o as_o for_o example_n in_o the_o prophecy_n of_o ezekiel_n at_o the_o
