divine_a honour_n this_o artemon_n of_o old_a and_o the_o socinian_o of_o late_a have_v advance_v but_o as_o by_o a_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n st._n paul_n do_v in_o the_o next_o place_n destroy_v this_o conceit_n in_o that_o way_n which_o of_o all_o other_o be_v the_o best_a suit_v to_o the_o notion_n of_o the_o jew_n he_o set_v christ_n in_o opposition_n to_o moses_n not_o only_o in_o a_o

the_o opposition_n follow_v moses_n be_v faithful_a in_o all_o his_o house_n 6._o as_o a_o servant_n but_o christ_n as_o a_o son_n over_o his_o own_o house_n word_n that_o be_v as_o clear_a as_o they_o be_v full_a to_o make_v this_o yet_o more_o sensible_a it_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v that_o the_o degree_n of_o moses_n inspiration_n be_v set_v by_o god_n himself_o above_o any_o other_o

servant_n moses_n be_v not_o so_o who_o be_v faithful_a in_o all_o my_o house_n with_o he_o will_v i_o speak_v mouth_n to_o mouth_n or_o face_n to_o face_n as_o one_o man_n speak_v to_o another_o even_o apparent_o and_o not_o in_o dark_a speech_n and_o the_o similitude_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v he_o behold_v or_o to_o put_v this_o in_o modern_a expression_n he_o shall_v see_v god_n in_o a_o
