so_o as_o some_o give_v out_o it_o do_v not_o therefore_o follow_v that_o he_o write_v only_o to_o the_o jew_n if_o matthew_n when_o he_o write_v his_o gospel_n have_v write_v a_o epistle_n to_o the_o

no_o not_o for_o adultery_n for_o if_o this_o be_v his_o sense_n certain_o paul_n be_v no_o faithful_a messenger_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v grant_v that_o paul_n faithful_o deliver_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n we_o must_v confess_v that_o by_o he_o adultery_n be_v except_v as_o well_o as_o by_o christ_n although_o paul_n do_v not_o in_o word_n express_v so_o much_o for_o this_o cause_n ambrose_n conceive_v that_o in_o the_o word_n of_o paul_n the_o exception_n of_o adultery_n must_v be_v understand_v leave_v paul_n shall_v be_v contrary_a to_o christ_n add_v hereunto_o that_o see_v paul_n in_o this_o place_n exhort_v to_o reconciliation_n it_o be_v clear_a that_o he_o speak_v not_o of_o adultery_n but_o of_o other_o small_a injury_n for_o which_o the_o greek_n be_v wont_a to_o make_v divorce_n and_o which_o may_v easy_o be_v reconcile_v for_o which_o kind_n of_o injury_n paul_n will_v not_o by_o any_o mean_n have_v marry_v people_n to_o divorce_n it_o may_v likewise_o be_v say_v that_o although_o the_o mind_n of_o christ_n be_v that_o he_o who_o put_v away_o his_o wife_n that_o have_v commit_v adultery_n and_o marry_v another_o be_v not_o a_o adulterer_n because_o in_o such_o a_o case_n the_o second_o matrimony_n be_v good_a and_o valid_a as_o the_o first_o be_v yet_o he_o do_v not_o think_v it_o be_v always_o right_o do_v and_o that_o husband_n of_o adulterous_a wife_n ought_v always_o to_o divorce_v they_o and_o marry_v other_o but_o rather_o that_o it_o may_v sometime_o so_o happen_v that_o the_o wife_n be_v a_o adulteress_n her_o husband_n may_v nevertheless_o sin_n if_o he_o put_v she_o away_o and_o take_v another_o for_o in_o case_n a_o wife_n have_v commit_v adultery_n and_o the_o husband_n be_v so_o mind_v as_o to_o judge_v that_o it_o make_v more_o for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n not_o to_o put_v she_o away_o and_o to_o take_v another_o than_o the_o contrary_a suppose_v it_o probable_a that_o if_o he_o take_v the_o adulteress_n again_o she_o will_v be_v reclaim_v but_o if_o he_o put_v she_o quite_o away_o she_o will_v grow_v worse_o he_o ought_v not_o to_o divorce_v she_o and_o if_o he_o marry_v another_o he_o sin_v not_o because_o the_o second_o be_v no_o true_a marriage_n but_o because_o in_o refuse_v and_o divorce_v she_o and_o marry_v another_o he_o have_v sin_v against_o charity_n and_o his_o own_o conscience_n and_o because_o it_o be_v likely_a that_o many_o time_n it_o be_v the_o best_a way_n not_o to_o divorce_v they_o paul_n give_v order_n in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v divorce_v although_o they_o do_v commit_v adultery_n in_o case_n the_o husband_n believe_v that_o it_o will_v make_v more_o for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n not_o to_o divorce_v they_o but_o if_o the_o husband_n judge_n that_o in_o case_n he_o be_v reconcile_v to_o she_o both_o she_o and_o other_o wife_n by_o her_o example_n will_v become_v more_o insolent_a and_o deprave_a to_o the_o great_a dishonour_n of_o god_n he_o ought_v to_o put_v she_o away_o by_o divorce_n mesch_n paul_n in_o another_o place_n say_v that_o the_o wife_n be_v bind_v to_o her_o husband_n by_o the_o law_n so_o long_o as_o he_o live_v so_o that_o if_o she_o marry_v another_o man_n she_o become_v a_o adultress_n which_o hold_v not_o he_o be_v dead_a for_o then_o be_v free_v by_o the_o death_n of_o her_o husband_n she_o be_v by_o the_o law_n allow_v to_o marry_v another_o and_o therefore_o a_o wife_n can_v so_o long_o as_o her_o husband_n live_v any_o way_n be_v free_v from_o the_o band_n of_o matrimony_n and_o marry_v another_o och._n they_o which_o hold_v it_o lawful_a for_o a_o man_n because_o of_o his_o wife_n adultery_n to_o marry_v another_o do_v not_o therefore_o think_v it_o lawful_a for_o a_o woman_n by_o reason_n of_o her_o husband_n adultery_n to_o marry_v another_o man_n i_o may_v therefore_o grant_v you_o that_o which_o paul_n write_v viz._n that_o it_o be_v in_o no_o wise_a lawful_a for_o the_o wife_n during_o her_o husband_n life_n to_o marry_v another_o though_o her_o husband_n be_v a_o adulterer_n but_o it_o do_v not_o therefore_o follow_v that_o the_o husband_n can_v divorce_v his_o adulterous_a wife_n and_o marry_v another_o and_o therefore_o though_o the_o husband_n have_v power_n to_o put_v away_o his_o wife_n have_v play_v the_o adulteress_n yet_o have_v not_o the_o woman_n the_o same_o power_n to_o divorce_v her_o husband_n in_o case_n he_o prove_v a_o adulterer_n and_o marry_v another_o man_n mesch_n but_o what_o argument_n do_v those_o man_n bring_v to_o maintain_v this_o their_o opinion_n och._n the_o very_a word_n of_o christ_n who_o say_v express_o that_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o a_o man_n to_o put_v away_o his_o wife_n for_o adultery_n but_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v lawful_a for_o a_o woman_n to_o put_v away_o or_o refuse_v her_o husband_n for_o adultery_n he_o have_v not_o say_v neither_o do_v ever_o moses_n speak_v so_o much_o as_o one_o word_n of_o the_o divorce_n of_o man_n they_o add_v also_o this_o argument_n because_o the_o husband_n be_v head_n of_o his_o wife_n and_o have_v authority_n over_o she_o he_o may_v upon_o the_o occasion_n aforesaid_a put_v she_o away_o which_o the_o wife_n can_v do_v to_o the_o husband_n as_o have_v no_o such_o authority_n mesch_n if_o marriage_n be_v dissolve_v by_o adultery_n so_o that_o of_o two_o there_o be_v no_o long_o one_o flesh_n make_v as_o there_o be_v by_o matrimony_n see_v the_o husband_n adultery_n be_v as_o much_o adultery_n as_o the_o wife_n i_o admire_v that_o marriage_n be_v abrogate_a and_o dissolve_v by_o the_o woman_n adultery_n and_o not_o by_o the_o man_n likewise_o och._n marriage_n be_v not_o so_o dissolve_v by_o adultery_n that_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o adultery_n be_v commit_v the_o band_n of_o matrimony_n be_v loose_v and_o break_v asunder_o so_o that_o neither_o the_o woman_n be_v any_o long_o his_o true_a wife_n nor_o the_o man_n her_o true_a husband_n for_o suppose_v the_o case_n to_o be_v so_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o they_o shall_v be_v marry_v again_o to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v enjoy_v one_o another_o in_o a_o conjugal_a way_n without_o sin_n and_o therefore_o the_o marriage_n be_v not_o dissolve_v by_o the_o act_n of_o adultery_n but_o by_o the_o woman_n adultery_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o man_n have_v

do_v not_o thereby_o acquire_v any_o power_n to_o put_v away_o her_o husband_n or_o divorce_v herself_o from_o he_o mesch_n nay_o but_o a_o wife_n may_v also_o put_v away_o her_o husband_n if_o he_o be_v a_o adulterer_n although_o neither_o christ_n nor_o moses_n have_v express_v so_o much_o nor_o the_o jew_n ever_o practise_v the_o same_o och._n i_o will_v give_v you_o another_o answer_n to_o
