part_n viz._n 1._o saint_n paul_n charge_n 2._o archippus_n his_o duty_n 3._o the_o reason_n of_o it_o i_o begin_v with_o saint_n paul_n charge_n and_o say_v to_o archippus_n but_o who_o must_v say_v to_o archippus_n the_o colossian_n but_o have_v they_o power_n to_o admonish_v their_o minister_n yes_o say_v calvin_n saint_n paul_n may_v have_v admonish_v he_o in_o his_o own_o private_a name_n but_o he_o enjoin_v this_o on_o the_o colossian_n that_o they_o may_v know_v that_o they_o also_o ought_v to_o give_v incitement_n to_o their_o pastor_n if_o they_o see_v he_o cold_a and_o the_o pastor_n shall_v not_o refuse_v admonition_n from_o the_o church_n loc._n in_o loc._n but_o what_o admonition_n must_v he_o submit_v unto_o take_v a_o answer_n from_o pareus_n who_o among_o other_o porismata_fw-la draw_v these_o two_o from_o these_o word_n 1._o the_o church_n have_v right_a to_o admonish_v or_o also_o to_o reprove_v and_o depose_v its_o minister_n that_o keep_v not_o within_o the_o bound_n of_o his_o office_n either_o by_o neglect_v it_o or_o not_o right_o perform_v it_o 2._o the_o pastor_n ought_v to_o submit_v himself_o to_o the_o mature_a judgement_n of_o the_o church_n and_o humble_o acknowledge_v from_o who_o he_o have_v receive_v his_o office_n but_o i_o pray_v what_o church_n be_v this_o whereunto_o the_o pastor_n must_v submit_v himself_o and_o make_v his_o humble_a acknowledgement_n why_o here_o we_o be_v leave_v to_o guess_v only_o our_o author_n tell_v we_o a_o small_a assembly_n deserve_v the_o name_n of_o a_o church_n have_v he_o think_v fit_a to_o have_v speak_v plain_o it_o be_v manifest_o most_o likely_a he_o will_v have_v say_v that_o by_o the_o church_n he_o understand_v a_o presbyterian_a consistory_n for_o this_o church_n whatever_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o must_v needs_o have_v the_o government_n on_o its_o shoulder_n and_o in_o contradistinction_n to_o its_o pastor_n it_o must_v needs_o consist_v either_o of_o the_o laity_n or_o inferior_a officer_n or_o joint_o of_o both_o to_o these_o than_o it_o be_v that_o they_o ascribe_v right_a to_o admonish_v reprove_v and_o depose_v their_o pastor_n but_o sure_o saint_n paul_n have_v teach_v they_o no_o such_o thing_n for_o not_o only_o the_o examination_n and_o ordination_n but_o also_o the_o admonition_n suspension_n and_o deposition_n of_o minister_n he_o have_v reserve_v as_o

of_o the_o world_n shall_v change_v it_o for_o another_o very_o strange_a and_o almost_o impossible_a it_o be_v that_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o christ_n for_o above_o a_o thousand_o year_n together_o shall_v either_o whole_o forget_v my_o text_n or_o else_o be_v ignorant_a of_o its_o meaning_n or_o so_o petulant_o wicked_a as_o to_o suppress_v and_o act_v contrary_a to_o it_o yet_o so_o it_o seem_v it_o be_v till_o the_o world_n be_v bless_v with_o such_o comment_n as_o those_o before_o mention_v whereby_o the_o people_n may_v understand_v their_o privilege_n to_o teach_v and_o admonish_v their_o teacher_n and_o to_o contend_v with_o god_n minister_n in_o matter_n too_o high_a for_o their_o capacity_n but_o we_o have_v not_o so_o learned_a to_o expound_v the_o holy_a scripture_n observe_v therefore_o that_o this_o charge_n of_o saint_n paul_n concern_v archippus_n be_v usher_v in_o with_o the_o copulative_a conjunction_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d and_o which_o

may_v probable_o be_v conjecture_v that_o the_o charge_n in_o this_o verse_n be_v connect_v in_o its_o kind_n or_o nature_n as_o well_o as_o situation_n with_o that_o that_o we_o find_v immediate_o

paul_n shall_v require_v the_o colossian_n to_o hold_v communion_n with_o the_o laodicean_n their_o fellow-christians_a somewhat_o remote_a from_o they_o and_o then_o in_o the_o very_a next_o line_n charge_v they_o to_o admonish_v yea_o it_o may_v be_v chide_v with_o and_o depose_v archippus_n their_o minister_n that_o labour_v or_o at_o least_o live_v among_o they_o how_o unlikely_a a_o thing_n
