be_v save_v where_o observe_v that_o circumcision_n be_v the_o subject_n of_o the_o question_n in_o the_o second_o verse_n they_o determine_v that_o paul_n and_o barnabas_n and_o certain_a other_o of_o they_o shall_v go_v to_o jerusalem_n unto_o the_o apostle_n and_o elder_n about_o this_o question_n to_o wit_n circumcision_n in_o the_o 5._o ver_fw-la certain_a of_o the_o sect_n of_o the_o pharisee_n say_v that_o it_o be_v needful_a to_o circumcise_v they_o in_o the_o 6._o the_o apostle_n come_v together_o to_o consider_v of_o the_o matter_n that_o be_v circumcision_n and_o when_o there_o have_v be_v much_o dispute_v peter_n arise_v up_o in_o the_o 7._o and_o determine_v the_o question_n in_o the_o ten_o verse_n why_o tempt_v you_o god_n to_o put_v a_o yoke_n upon_o the_o neck_n of_o the_o disciple_n mr._n t._n his_o answer_n to_o all_o this_o be_v that_o it_o be_v frivolous_a of_o which_o contumelious_a censure_n i_o be_o sure_a his_o pretend_a reason_n be_v guilty_a for_o say_v he_o though_o for_o 1._o 5._o there_o be_v mention_n of_o circumcision_n yet_o not_o of_o circumcision_n as_o act_v on_o infant_n but_o teach_v brethren_n here_o be_v two_o question_n the_o first_o be_v negative_a that_o there_o be_v not_o mention_v of_o circumcision_n as_o act_v on_o infant_n the_o second_o affirmative_a that_o it_o be_v circumcision_n as_o act_v only_o on_o brethren_n i_o will_v invert_v the_o order_n and_o begin_v with_o the_o latter_a that_o which_o be_v press_v as_o a_o transient_a act_n and_o not_o permanent_a to_o posterity_n be_v not_o mention_v here_o but_o circumcision_n act_v only_o on_o teach_v brethren_n be_v press_v only_o as_o a_o translent_a act_n not_o permanent_a to_o posterity_n therefore_o circumcision_n act_v only_o on_o teach_v brethren_n be_v not_o mention_v here_o the_o major_n be_v apparent_a because_o they_o that_o come_v from_o judea_n do_v not_o press_v a_o duty_n that_o shall_v determine_v present_o but_o to_o continue_v always_o to_o posterity_n of_o which_o nature_n in_o their_o judgement_n be_v circumcision_n and_o obligation_n to_o moses_n his_o law_n therefore_o the_o determination_n of_o the_o council_n against_o they_o v._o 28._o be_v not_o a_o transient_a but_o a_o permanent_a decree_n bind_v negative_o from_o circumcision_n all_o infant_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v the_o minor_a be_v as_o clear_v that_o circumcision_n act_v on_o teach_v brother_n not_o infant_n have_v be_v a_o transient_a act_n will_v have_v expire_v with_o that_o generation_n and_o not_o concern_v their_o infant_n to_o posterity_n and_o according_a to_o his_o ground_n the_o council_n have_v determine_v nothing_o against_o infant-circumcision_a which_o nevertheless_o will_v have_v be_v still_o in_o force_n provide_v they_o abstain_v from_o circumcise_n of_o teach_v brother_n which_o be_v a_o most_o gross_a and_o heretical_a absurdity_n his_o second_o evasion_n be_v that_o there_o be_v no_o mention_n of_o circumcision_n as_o act_v on_o infant_n the_o falsity_n of_o which_o appear_v by_o this_o argument_n if_o it_o be_v infant_n also_o who_o the_o false_a teacher_n will_v have_v have_v to_o be_v circumcise_a as_o necessary_a and_o as_o engage_v to_o moses_n law_n than_o mention_n be_v make_v of_o circumcision_n as_o act_v or_o to_o be_v act_v on_o infant_n but_o it_o be_v infant_n also_o who_o the_o false_a teacher_n will_v have_v have_v to_o be_v circumcise_a as_o necessary_a and_o as_o engage_v unto_o moses_n law_n therefore_o mention_n be_v make_v of_o circumcision_n as_o act_v or_o to_o be_v act_v on_o infant_n the_o antecedent_n to_o wit_n it_o be_v infant_n also_o they_o will_v have_v circumcise_a be_v clear_v for_o 1._o except_o you_o be_v circumcise_a after_o the_o manner_n of_o moses_n you_o can_v be_v save_v if_o they_o will_v have_v have_v they_o circumcise_a after_o the_o manner_n of_o moses_n than_o they_o will_v have_v infant_n also_o circumcise_a but_o they_o will_v hau●_n they_o circumcise_a after_o the_o manner_n of_o moses_n therefore_o they_o will_v have_v infant_n also_o circumcise_a for_o nothing_o be_v more_o manifest_a than_o that_o after_o the_o manner_n of_o moses_n all_o the_o proselyte_n child_n shall_v be_v circumcise_a as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n and_o ever_o after_o all_o their_o posterity_n at_o eight_o day_n old_a but_o it_o will_v be_v expect_v i_o shall_v make_v good_a the_o consequence_n which_o in_o the_o word_n follow_v he_o interpretative_o deny_v say_v when_o the_o apostle_n ver_fw-la 6._o do_v consider_v of_o the_o matter_n they_o do_v not_o consider_v of_o the_o circumcision_n as_o act_v but_o teach_v and_o not_o only_o of_o circumcision_n but_o also_o impose_v the_o law_n of_o moses_n as_o necessary_a

they_o teach_v the_o brethren_n except_o you_o be_v circumcise_a after_o the_o manner_n of_o moses_n you_o can_v be_v save_v he_o do_v not_o say_v except_o you_o be_v teach_v circumcision_n and_o so_o
