nature_n give_v tithe_n long_o before_o the_o ceremonial-law_n be_v institute_v and_o that_o god_n do_v afterward_o confirm_v the_o payment_n of_o tithe_n by_o the_o ceremonial-law_n for_o the_o

and_o not_o of_o constraint_n again_o if_o abraham_n and_o jacob_n be_v guide_v by_o nature_n without_o any_o command_n from_o god_n give_v tithe_n and_o that_o god_n as_o some_o say_v approve_v the_o

clear_a that_o by_o the_o take_n away_o of_o that_o law_n tithe_n be_v utter_o abolish_v and_o take_v away_o and_o man_n ought_v not_o to_o set_v they_o up_o again_o until_o they_o have_v a_o

the_o commandment_n of_o god_n of_o none_o effect_v by_o your_o own_o tradition_n and_o i_o desire_v all_o man_n to_o consider_v that_o as_o abraham_n give_v tithe_n to_o melchisedeck_v and_o jacob_n vow_v to_o give_v the_o ten_o of_o his_o good_n to_o god_n long_o before_o the_o levitical_a law_n so_o also_o abraham_n and_o jacob_n offer_v sacrifice_n long_o before_o the_o law_n be_v give_v and_o so_o do_v cain_n and_o abel_n also_o long_o before_o they_o must_v we_o therefore_o now_o according_a to_o their_o example_n offer_v sacrifice_n because_o they_o do_v so_o god_n command_v the_o jew_n only_o to_o pay_v tithe_n in_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n which_o law_n cease_v with_o the_o levitical_a priesthood_n but_o god_n never_o command_v the_o gentile_n to_o pay_v tithe_n in_o any_o
