A91415	The Jewes synagogue: or, A treatise concerning the ancient orders and manner of worship used by the Jewes in their synagogue-assemblies. Gathered out of the sacred scriptures, the Jewish Rabines, and such modern authors, which have been most conversant in the study of Jewish customes. Wherein, by comparing the scriptures in the Old and New Testament together, many truths are fully opened, and sundry controversies about church-government truly and plainly stated. By William Pinchion of Springfeild [sic] in N. England.	Pynchon, William, 1590-1662.	1652 (1652)	Wing P4309; Thomason E802_4; ESTC R207368	80,705	99

for_o example_n there_o be_v certain_a man_n in_o numb_a 9_o 6._o that_o be_v unclean_a by_o a_o dead_a corpse_n in_o this_o case_n they_o can_v not_o tell_v whether_o they_o may_v come_v to_o that_o

into_o this_o difficult_a matter_n may_v teach_v the_o elder_n of_o any_o church_n or_o common_a weal_n not_o to_o pass_v sentence_n too_o hasty_o in_o doubtful_a case_n till_o they_o have_v a_o

mamony_n say_v that_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o great_a sanhedrin_n be_v wont_a to_o sit_v in_o the_o temple_n to_o judge_v and_o try_v the_o priest_n both_o touch_v their_o genealogy_n and_o blemish_n and_o what_o priest_n soever_o they_o find_v dis-allowable_a by_o his_o genealogy_n they_o clothe_v he_o in_o black_a and_o so_o he_o go_v out_o of_o the_o priest_n court_n in_o the_o temple_n but_o

these_o testimony_n we_o may_v see_v that_o the_o judge_n of_o the_o synedrion_fw-mi court_n be_v the_o general_a elder_n of_o the_o church_n to_o look_v to_o all_o matter_n as_o well_o levitical_a as_o civil_a yea_o sometime_o the_o priest_n be_v so_o simple_a in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o their_o duty_n that_o the_o judge_n of_o the_o sanhedrin_n be_v fain_o to_o teach_v they_o their_o duty_n as_o for_o example_n if_o the_o priest_n be_v unclean_a or_o unmeet_a any_o kind_n of_o way_n to_o burn_v the_o red_a heifer_n than_o it_o be_v the_o proper_a duty_n of_o the_o judge_n of_o the_o

the_o sign_n of_o the_o plague_n of_o leprosy_n than_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o such_o a_o priest_n to_o look_v upon_o any_o plague_n till_o a_o master_n have_v teach_v he_o and_o make_v he_o

follow_v by_o necessary_a consequence_n that_o they_o be_v the_o general_a elder_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n and_o therefore_o they_o have_v power_n to_o inflict_v the_o sentence_n of_o

therefore_o also_o by_o the_o same_o rule_n of_o equity_n the_o judge_n of_o the_o high_a court_n now_o may_v dispense_v the_o same_o power_n now_o both_o they_o and_o their_o substitute_n provide_v they_o take_v the_o like_a care_n that_o none_o be_v make_v judge_n but_o such_o as_o be_v learned_a and_o godly_a scholar_n you_o say_v ere_o while_n that_o jesus_n christ_n put_v aaron_n the_o high_a priest_n in_o trust_n with_o the_o care_n of_o matter_n of_o religion_n as_o well_o as_o moses_n the_o king_n in_o that_o respect_n i_o conceive_v that_o the_o high_a priest_n be_v the_o principal_a elder_n of_o the_o national_a church_n if_o so_o than_o it_o belong_v to_o he_o as_o the_o chief_a elder_n of_o the_o church_n to_o dispense_v all_o action_n of_o church-discipline_n and_o so_o many_o learned_a do_v conclude_v and_o affirm_v teacher_n i_o grant_v that_o many_o learned_a divine_n do_v usual_o say_v and_o affirm_v that_o the_o high_a priest_n be_v the_o chief_a elder_n of_o that_o national_a church_n and_o thus_o chrysostome_n in_o photius_n library_n do_v make_v the_o high_a priest_n the_o stay_n of_o the_o state_n but_o i_o answer_v first_o negative_o that_o the_o high_a sacrificer_n be_v affirm_v the_o high_a sacrificer_n be_v not_o the_o chief_a elder_n of_o the_o national_a church_n in_o israel_n as_o some_o affirm_v many_o time_n so_o simple_a that_o he_o be_v not_o fit_a to_o be_v choose_v for_o a_o elder_a of_o the_o sanhedrin_n and_o therefore_o not_o fit_a to_o be_v the_o chief_a elder_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n but_o second_o i_o say_v that_o if_o the_o high_a sacrificer_n be_v at_o any_o time_n choose_v to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o synedrion_fw-mi then_o by_o that_o choice_n he_o be_v make_v a_o elder_a of_o the_o national_a church_n or_o else_o not_o his_o priestly_a office_n do_v not_o make_v he_o a_o elder_a of_o the_o high_a sanhedrin_n or_o synedrion_n unless_o he_o be_v choose_v thereto_o in_o a_o orderly_a way_n as_o all_o the_o other_o judge_n of_o that_o court_n be_v but_o if_o he_o be_v orderly_o choose_v to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o judge_n of_o the_o sanhedrin_n then_o if_o his_o gift_n and_o part_n be_v more_o eminent_a than_o other_o he_o may_v haply_o be_v more_o exercise_v in_o judge_v levitical_a law_n and_o ordinance_n than_o other_o but_o if_o his_o part_n be_v less_o

than_o he_o and_o so_o they_o may_v be_v prefer_v above_o he_o 2._o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o high_a sacrificer_n be_v not_o the_o chief_a elder_n of_o the_o church_n as_o he_o be_v the_o high_a priest_n for_o though_o he_o have_v a_o privilege_n above_o all_o other_o priest_n in_o the_o priest_n office_n yet_o he_o have_v no_o place_n among_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o sanhedrin_n as_o he_o be_v the_o high_a priest_n for_o his_o high_a priest_n office_n fall_v to_o he_o partly_o by_o birth_n which_o have_v no_o learning_n nor_o gift_n entail_v to_o it_o and_o partly_o he_o be_v choose_v by_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o sanhedrin_n they_o anoint_v the_o high_a priest_n and_o install_v he_o into_o his_o office_n because_o they_o be_v the_o church_n elder_n ain_n levit._fw-la 6._o 20._o and_o talmud_n jerusalemi_n in_o sanhedrin_n show_v that_o the_o seventie_o elder_n of_o the_o high_a sanhedrin_n may_v be_v all_o of_o israel_n without_o any_o one_o of_o levi_n and_o that_o the_o high_a priest_n be_v not_o of_o the_o sanhedrin_n except_o he_o be_v rare_o learn_v and_o sage_a but_o say_v the_o talmud_n they_o be_v often_o time_n so_o simple_a that_o the_o elder_n of_o

as_o a_o duty_n command_v they_o by_o virtue_n of_o their_o office_n as_o they_o be_v the_o church_n elder_n for_o it_o be_v the_o angel_n of_o god_n presence_n that_o command_v moses_n the_o
