their_o law_n require_v two_o witness_n but_o his_o testimony_n concern_v himself_o be_v true_a be_v authentic_a and_o valid_a because_o he_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a person_n even_o god_n himself_o

with_o such_o beside_o we_o learn_v from_o the_o forecited_n text_n in_o the_o king_n that_o these_o sacred_a thing_n be_v not_o in_o the_o ark_n even_o in_o solomon_n time_n and_o if_o they_o be_v
