on_o be_v forbid_v and_o whatsoever_o be_v command_v about_o ordination_n be_v essential_a to_o it_o but_o this_o you_o take_v no_o notice_n of_o only_o you_o devise_v a_o reason_n which_o i_o know_v not_o who_o will_v own_o and_o think_v perhaps_o to_o be_v applaud_v for_o your_o answer_n take_v it_o for_o grant_v say_v you_o that_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n be_v put_v for_o the_o whole_a matter_n of_o appoint_v minister_n for_o this_o must_v be_v supply_v hither_o out_o of_o the_o objection_n though_o it_o will_v not_o easy_o be_v prove_v because_o the_o scripture_n show_v it_o have_v be_v use_v in_o other_o case_n then_o in_o appoint_v officer_n yet_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o it_o be_v the_o principal_a or_o essential_a thing_n in_o ordination_n as_o for_o example_n prayer_n be_v put_v for_o the_o whole_a worship_n of_o god_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o the_o principal_a part_n of_o worship_n for_o sometime_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n be_v put_v for_o all_o the_o worship_n as_o isa_n 56._o 4._o again_o as_o when_o the_o scripture_n by_o the_o same_o figure_n put_v lift_v up_o of_o hand_n for_o election_n as_o it_o do_v act._n 14._o 23_o it_o bind_v not_o to_o that_o in_o all_o election_n nor_o place_v it_o the_o essence_n of_o a_o choice_n in_o that_o so_o neither_o do_v the_o scripture_n place_n the_o chief_a part_n or_o essence_n of_o ordination_n in_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n though_o it_o put_v it_o for_o that_o work_n ans_fw-fr 1._o though_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n be_v use_v at_o other_o time_n as_o well_o as_o at_o ordination_n yet_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n why_o we_o shall_v imagine_v that_o in_o this_o text_n it_o refer_v to_o any_o other_o thing_n because_o the_o chapter_n speak_v for_o the_o most_o part_n of_o thing_n belong_v to_o elder_n 2._o be_v it_o grant_v that_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n be_v use_v in_o other_o case_n beside_o that_o of_o appoint_v officer_n yet_o the_o use_n of_o it_o in_o ordain_v elder_n be_v one_o thing_n if_o it_o be_v not_o the_o only_a thing_n here_o intend_v 3._o this_o argument_n will_v sure_o hold_v lay_v on_o of_o hand_n be_v put_v for_o appoint_v minister_n therefore_o in_o appoint_v minister_n its_o lawful_a to_o lay_v on_o hand_n as_o this_o prayer_n and_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n be_v put_v for_o worship_n therefore_o they_o belong_v to_o worship_n and_o if_o because_o they_o be_v put_v for_o worship_n they_o be_v therefore_o part_n of_o worship_n then_o imposition_n of_o hand_n be_v part_n of_o ordination_n because_o it_o be_v put_v for_o ordination_n if_o a_o part_n than_o either_o essential_a or_o integrall_a so_o as_o at_o lest_o no_o ordination_n be_v complete_a and_o entire_a without_o it_o 3._o lift_v up_o of_o hand_n be_v not_o put_v for_o election_n in_o act._n 14._o 23._o
