there_o be_v but_o one_o at_o each_o of_o they_o here_o beth-aven_a and_o bethel_n be_v all_o one_o jeroboam_n be_v so_o subtle_a to_o set_v up_o the_o calf_n at_o bethel_n because_o the_o place_n take_v its_o name_n from_o god_n but_o here_o the_o holy_a ghost_n call_v it_o a_o house_n of_o beth-aven_a because_o it_o signify_v a_o house_n of_o vanity_n or_o iniquity_n god_n call_v it_o by_o another_o name_n we_o may_v call_v thing_n by_o name_n that_o may_v hold_v up_o some_o honour_n and_o respect_n but_o god_n will_v give_v another_o name_n to_o these_o thing_n that_o we_o will_v fain_o put_v a_o honour_n upon_o he_o call_v it_o beth-aven_a and_o the_o calf_n of_o beth-aven_a why_o be_v there_o many_o calf_n at_o beth-aven_a now_o the_o answer_n that_o some_o give_v be_v this_o 1._o there_o be_v but_o one_o at_o bethel_n indeed_o but_o both_o bethel_n and_o dan_n may_v have_v the_o name_n bath-aven_a for_o they_o be_v both_o house_n of_o vanity_n and_o so_o call_v calf_n in_o respect_n of_o they_o both_o or_o other_o thus_o 2._o the_o calf_n of_o beth-aven_a as_o if_o the_o prophet_n shall_v say_v set_v up_o as_o many_o calf_n as_o you_o will_v they_o shall_v not_o help_v you_o if_o you_o have_v a_o thousand_o of_o they_o or_o rather_o as_o i_o find_v some_o prefer_v arias_n montanus_n with_o other_o they_o be_v call_v the_o calf_n of_o beth-aven_a because_o according_a to_o the_o example_n of_o the_o calf_n that_o be_v set_v up_o at_o beth-aven_a mont._n their_o workman_n do_v make_v other_o little_a one_o to_o be_v in_o their_o house_n like_v as_o demetrius_n that_o be_v the_o silver-smith_n for_o diana_n make_v shrine_n for_o diana_n temple_n it_o be_v demetrius_n trade_n to_o make_v little_a kind_n of_o temple_n in_o silver_n either_o to_o hang_v about_o their_o neck_n or_o to_o be_v in_o their_o house_n or_o ornament_n so_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o the_o calf_n that_o be_v set_v up_o at_o bethaven_n have_v so_o much_o honour_v put_v upon_o it_o as_o to_o have_v little_a thing_n make_v with_o silver_n or_o gold_n according_a to_o their_o estate_n perhaps_o for_o mean_a man_n little_a thing_n make_v with_o wood_n and_o gentleman_n with_o silver_n and_o other_o with_o gold_n like_v to_o those_o calf_n and_o so_o have_v they_o in_o their_o family_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v call_v calf_n in_o the_o plural_a

into_o their_o family_n they_o will_v bring_v the_o calf_n into_o their_o family_n or_o house_n so_o shall_v we_o bring_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n into_o our_o family_n bring_v the_o worship_n of_o god_n into_o our_o family_n and_o not_o content_v ourselves_o with_o public_a worship_n but_o have_v private_a worship_n too_o they_o do_v not_o content_v themselves_o with_o a_o calf_n abroad_o but_o have_v they_o at_o home_n in_o their_o house_n or_o family_n and_o further_a there_o be_v a_o note_n from_o it_o they_o be_v call_v the_o calf_n
