who_o he_o call_v mason_n and_o builder_n he_o say_v that_o every_o one_o work_n shall_v pass_v by_o the_o fire_n and_o that_o the_o workman_n also_o shall_v be_v examine_v by_o the_o same_o wherefore_o either_o you_o shall_v be_v constrain_v to_o confess_v that_o that_o fire_n can_v be_v understand_v of_o the_o same_o of_o purgatory_n or_o that_o there_o be_v neither_o saint_n nor_o

by_o the_o fire_n the_o which_o thing_n saint_n augustine_n be_v not_o ignorant_a off_o but_o use_v the_o same_o reason_n 68_o against_o those_o which_o will_v maintain_v by_o those_o word_n of_o

which_o be_v jesus_n christ_n provide_v that_o they_o have_v not_o altogether_o abandon_v and_o forsake_v the_o foundation_n he_o take_v not_o that_o fire_n for_o that_o of_o purgatory_n but_o for_o the_o tribulation_n adversity_n and_o persecution_n of_o this_o world_n although_o that_o some_o will_v say_v that_o the_o like_a be_v do_v yet_o in_o the_o other_o world_n he_o say_v that_o he_o will_v not_o repunge_v their_o opinion_n the_o which_o as_o he_o say_v may_v be_v true_a but_o yet_o nevertheless_o he_o dare_v not_o to_o affirm_v it_o but_o expound_v that_o fire_n of_o the_o tribulation_n of_o 3._o this_o world_n here_o theophilacte_n who_o almost_o in_o all_o his_o commentary_n have_v follow_v chrisostome_n notwithstanding_o that_o he_o be_v not_o of_o the_o most_o

true_a and_o more_o clear_a understanding_n of_o those_o word_n saint_n paul_n mean_v here_o briesely_a that_o all_o building_n all_o doctrine_n and_o work_v build_v and_o invent_v without_o the_o

which_o be_v more_o pure_a 11_o than_o the_o gold_n and_o silver_n fine_v and_o try_v seven_o time_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n use_v here_o a_o metaphor_n translation_n and_o comparison_n for_o even_o as_o he_o compare_v the_o pure_a doctrine_n doctrine_n of_o y_fw-es gospel_n to_o the_o gold_n silver_n &_o precious_a stone_n which_o can_v be_v consume_v by_o the_o fire_n but_o be_v by_o the_o same_o try_a and_o do_v appear_v more_o fair_a and_o clean_o so_o he_o compare_v the_o doctrine_n dream_v and_o invent_v by_o the_o brain_n of_o man_n unto_o wood_n hay_n chaff_n and_o
