of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n of_o which_o the_o psalm_n say_v that_o god_n with_o great_a power_n and_o glory_n will_v establish_v it_o in_o earthâ—…_n show_v miracle_n in_o his_o creature_n

angel_n shall_v worship_v before_o he_o now_o as_o he_o have_v teach_v this_o by_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o prophet_n give_v to_o christ_n so_o after_o in_o the_o 7._o verse_n spirit_n he_o show_v the_o same_o on_o the_o other_o side_n by_o the_o testimony_n which_o you_o scripture_n give_v to_o angel_n of_o who_o say_v he_o it_o be_v say_v he_o make_v his_o angel_n spirit_n and_o his_o

name_v they_o a_o flame_a fire_n according_a to_o you_o similitude_n in_o which_o their_o glory_n have_v be_v see_v as_o the_o angel_n that_o be_v with_o elizeus_fw-la his_o servant_n see_v they_o as_o chariot_n of_o fire_n the_o similitude_n of_o the_o beast_n which_o ezechiel_n see_v be_v as_o coal_n of_o burn_a 2._o fire_n and_o the_o seraphim_n have_v their_o name_n because_o they_o be_v of_o a_o fiery_a colour_n and_o these_o word_n â–ª_o spirit_n and_o minister_n we_o must_v resolve_v thus_o minister_a spirit_n so_o out_o of_o this_o text_n his_o argument_n stand_v thus_o â–ª_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o son_n the_o first_o beget_v son_n who_o the_o angel_n worship_n but_o the_o angel_n be_v his_o minister_a spirit_n therefore_o christ_n be_v great_a than_o the_o angel_n now_o for_o the_o allegation_n of_o this_o text_n the_o apostle_n be_v a_o sufficient_a witness_n to_o i_o that_o this_o verse_n of_o the_o 104._o psalm_n be_v mean_v of_o the_o angel_n of_o god_n and_o not_o of_o the_o wind_n and_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n to_o the_o contrary_n for_o first_o he_o mention_v the_o wind_n before_o where_o he_o say_v he_o walk_v upon_o the_o wing_n of_o the_o wind_n and_o therefore_o a_o repetition_n of_o the_o same_o in_o other_o word_n be_v not_o necessary_a â–ª_o again_o see_v minister_n here_o signify_v those_o which_o execute_v god_n power_n to_o save_v his_o people_n i_o see_v no_o cause_n to_o attribute_v it_o to_o the_o wind_n for_o though_o god_n even_o by_o the_o element_n help_v his_o people_n many_o time_n yet_o that_o praise_n be_v not_o give_v as_o a_o name_n to_o the_o element_n which_o be_v do_v in_o the_o angel_n now_o where_o it_o be_v object_v that_o the_o prophet_n there_o set_v out_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n according_a to_o his_o government_n in_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n i_o grant_v it_o and_o so_o the_o ministry_n of_o angel_n be_v then_o open_a &_o know_v in_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o of_o angel_n also_o the_o prophet_n speak_v as_o of_o they_o in_o who_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n shine_v even_o as_o in_o the_o heaven_n the_o cloud_n the_o lightning_n etc_n etc_n beside_o this_o in_o these_o word_n the_o apostle_n will_v prove_v what_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o angel_n which_o require_v that_o he_o shall_v speak_v in_o the_o natural_a sense_n of_o the_o prophet_n word_n and_o the_o preposition_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d use_v of_o the_o apostle_n seem_v not_o to_o be_v without_o cause_n for_o though_o it_o be_v the_o hobrue_n phrase_n â–ª_o as_o it_o be_v say_v yet_o it_o may_v well_o have_v just_a cause_n why_o the_o apostle_n use_v it_o in_o greek_a &_o it_o signify_v as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o say_v thus_o unto_o all_o angel_n we_o may_v say_v you_o be_v but_o minister_a spirit_n and_o so_o it_o be_v like_a unto_o the_o text_n next_o allege_v of_o christ_n to_o the_o son_n he_o say_v etc_n etc_n and_o thus_o the_o preposition_n be_v very_o convenient_o use_v and_o make_v the_o prophet_n word_n a_o natural_a description_n of_o the_o angel_n therefore_o for_o my_o part_n thus_o i_o say_v and_o thus_o i_o be_o persuade_v that_o as_o it_o be_v here_o allege_a so_o the_o word_n be_v mean_v of_o the_o angel_n of_o god_n which_o be_v his_o minister_n to_o execute_v his_o will_n for_o safety_n of_o his_o people_n and_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o
