that_o the_o ephesian_n be_v build_v upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o apostle_n &_o prophet_n now_o he_o apply_v this_o to_o all_o the_o faithful_a in_o general_n for_o he_o say_v that_o the_o

the_o livelie_a temple_n of_o god_n in_o like_a case_n the_o whole_a church_n be_v therefore_o call_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n both_o because_o it_o be_v rear_v up_o and_o build_v upon_o one_o
