of_o their_o hope_n and_o expectance_n thus_o it_o seem_v apparent_a that_o they_o look_v on_o their_o messiah_n as_o one_o that_o shall_v be_v israel_n restaurator_n redemptor_n liberator_n as_o

to_o be_v such_o a_o son_n of_o god_n he_o be_v ignorant_a of_o his_o real_a divinity_n this_o recondit_fw-la and_o sublime_a mystery_n do_v transcend_v all_o the_o natural_a wit_n and_o subtlety_n

theophyl_n who_o in_o his_o note_n on_o the_o first_a chapter_n of_o st._n john_n give_v this_o account_n of_o it_o ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d notwithstanding_o that_o nathaniel_n do_v confess_v christ_n to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n yet_o he_o do_v not_o confess_v he_o as_o peter_n do_v he_o confess_v he_o the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o true_a god_n therefore_o he_o receive_v the_o beatification_n and_o be_v entrust_v with_o the_o church_n but_o nathaniel_n confess_v he_o as_o a_o mere_a man_n gracious_o adopt_v by_o god_n for_o his_o virtue_n for_o he_o be_v not_o as_o yet_o arrive_v to_o the_o perfect_a knowledge_n of_o the_o real_a deity_n of_o the_o only_o beget_v son_n st._n chrysost_o likewise_o in_o his_o 55th_o hom._n on_o st._n matt._n make_v nathaniel_n

the_o same_o substance_n with_o god_n and_o in_o the_o same_o homily_n he_o declare_v that_o st._n peter_n know_v he_o as_o his_o ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d as_o his_o proper_a natural_a son_n and_o therefore_o reward_v ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d why_o be_v st._n peter_n pronounce_v bless_v because_o he_o confess_v christ_n to_o be_v the_o natural_a son_n of_o god_n upon_o that_o score_n he_o pronounce_v none_o of_o those_o who_o confess_v he_o before_o bless_v this_o be_v likewise_o the_o opinion_n of_o epiphanius_n adver_o cath._n ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d because_o he_o clear_o

affirm_v make_v a_o true_a confession_n of_o christ_n before_o peter_n what_o reason_n can_v be_v give_v that_o christ_n who_o be_v ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d no_o respecter_n of_o person_n shall_v give_v that_o reward_n of_o beatus_fw-la es_fw-la etc._n etc._n to_o peter_n which_o nathaniel_n do_v more_o deserve_v if_o as_o you_o say_v he_o first_o make_v true_a confession_n of_o he_o now_o as_o for_o nathaniels_n confession_n it_o be_v so_o far_o from_o deserve_v a_o reward_n that_o come_v short_a of_o the_o truth_n as_o chrysost_o affirm_v in_o his_o 55_o hom._n matt._n it_o be_v derogatory_n to_o christ_n for_o what_o can_v seem_v more_o lessen_v and_o eclipsive_a of_o his_o lustre_n and_o excellency_n who_o both_o in_o essence_n and_o glory_n be_v equal_a to_o god_n the_o
