epistle_n second_o the_o substance_n of_o it_o in_o the_o inscription_n there_o be_v four_o thing_n 1._o what_o it_o be_v which_o be_v write_v 2._o who_o write_v it_o 3._o in_o what_o tongue_n he_o

though_o it_o be_v not_o much_o material_a it_o may_v be_v evince_v by_o strong_a argument_n to_o be_v write_v by_o saint_n paul_n himself_o 1._o it_o be_v as_o clear_a as_o the_o noon_n day_n that_o

so_o that_o though_o the_o matter_n be_v not_o weighty_a it_o seem_v most_o probable_a to_o be_v saint_n paul_n whosoever_o be_v the_o pipe_n to_o convey_v it_o to_o we_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o

the_o old_a testament_n out_o of_o the_o 70._o interpreter_n therefore_o undoubted_o he_o write_v in_o greek_a not_o in_o hebrew_n 2._o though_o he_o write_v to_o the_o roman_n which_o at_o that_o time_n be_v lord_n of_o all_o the_o world_n yet_o he_o write_v not_o in_o the_o latin_a but_o in_o the_o greek_a tongue_n to_o they_o because_o the_o latin_a tongue_n be_v include_v within_o the_o
