if_o you_o inquire_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o freedom_n they_o immediate_o give_v you_o a_o very_a remarkable_a one_o viz._n because_o none_o of_o alexander_n captain_n have_v any_o lawful_a

what_o the_o doctor_n can_v object_v against_o this_o instance_n except_v that_o the_o macedonian_n be_v not_o in_o possession_n of_o judea_n now_o this_o objection_n depend_v upon_o matter_n of_o

therefore_o some_o of_o alexander_n officer_n be_v in_o possession_n of_o judea_n when_o their_o master_n die_v now_o that_o the_o jew_n dispossess_v the_o macedonian_n and_o recover_v their_o

their_o theocracy_n their_o government_n by_o king_n their_o captivity_n and_o the_o variety_n of_o master_n they_o fall_v under_o will_v not_o have_v omit_v one_o will_v think_v so_o remarkable_a a_o
