be_v observe_v in_o abib_fw-la or_o nisan_fw-la that_o be_v in_o the_o first_o month_n and_o their_o name_n put_v into_o greek_a be_v not_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d but_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d or_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d as_o i_o have_v elsewhere_o observe_v against_o joseph_n scaliger_n now_o seven_o and_o eight_o in_o these_o case_n be_v the_o same_o as_o grotius_n have_v observe_v before_o i_o and_o therefore_o josephus_n say_v of_o the_o passover_n sometime_o that_o it_o be_v a_o feast_n of_o seven_o and_o sometime_o of_o eight_o day_n continuance_n in_o the_o first_o account_n exclude_v that_o day_n in_o which_o the_o passover_n be_v kill_v which_o do_v not_o belong_v to_o the_o feast_n of_o the_o passover_n proper_o so_o call_v and_o in_o the_o latter_a include_v it_o and_o so_o here_o if_o you_o take_v in_o the_o terminus_n à_fw-fr quo_fw-la which_o be_v the_o month_n before_o nisan_fw-la then_o tisri_n be_v the_o eight_o month_n but_o if_o you_o consider_v the_o month_n only_a inclusiuè_n begin_v at_o nisan_fw-la or_o abib_fw-la than_o it_o be_v the_o seven_o which_o be_v a_o plain_a way_n of_o reconcile_a this_o seem_a disagreement_n betwixt_o epiphanius_n and_o the_o writer_n of_o the_o book_n of_o king_n and_o to_o show_v still_o more_o plain_o that_o both_o writer_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o same_o feast_n it_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v that_o the_o samaritan_n receive_v their_o religion_n from_o the_o israelitish_n priest_n which_o be_v send_v among_o they_o to_o instruct_v they_o as_o appear_v by_o the_o seventeen_o chapter_n of_o the_o second_o book_n of_o king_n where_o the_o story_n of_o salmanesers_n deportation_n be_v relate_v and_o these_o priest_n be_v subject_n of_o that_o kingdom_n and_o priest_n of_o that_o order_n and_o institution_n of_o which_o jeroboam_n be_v the_o founder_n so_o that_o i_o think_v there_o can_v be_v no_o doubt_n that_o the_o same_o feast_n be_v understand_v by_o epiphanius_n with_o that_o which_o be_v mention_v in_o the_o book_n of_o king_n but_o epiphanius_n his_o feast_n be_v express_o say_v to_o have_v be_v the_o passover_n therefore_o it_o follow_v that_o in_o the_o book_n of_o king_n we_o be_v also_o to_o expound_v and_o interpret_v it_o of_o the_o same_o and_o as_o epiphanius_n explain_v the_o sacred_a story_n so_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n the_o inspire_a writer_n return_v epiphanius_n his_o kindness_n back_o again_o by_o give_v authority_n and_o credit_n to_o his_o relation_n and_o if_o we_o consider_v that_o epiphanius_n do_v not_o understand_v hebrew_n which_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o prove_v that_o he_o do_v not_o and_o i_o think_v i_o have_v do_v it_o in_o some_o other_o paper_n the_o name_n itself_o do_v sufficient_o vouch_v the_o credibility_n of_o the_o story_n since_o its_o signification_n be_v so_o well_o accommodate_v to_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o sect_n itself_o which_o he_o describe_v i_o do_v therefore_o disow_v and_o recant_v those_o reason_n which_o i_o have_v give_v of_o the_o samaritan_n practice_n as_o to_o this_o particular_a in_o the_o paper_n i_o have_v mention_v which_o be_v already_o

which_o be_v devise_v by_o he_o on_o set_v purpose_n to_o make_v the_o breach_n wide_o and_o the_o enmity_n more_o irreconcilable_a betwixt_o the_o two_o kingdom_n of_o israel_n and_o judah_n and_o it_o be_v further_a to_o be_v note_v that_o he_o do_v not_o only_o institute_v a_o new_a feast_n or_o which_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n a_o old_a feast_n at_o a_o new_a time_n but_o also_o that_o he_o do_v sacrifice_n in_o his_o own_o person_n by_o that_o mean_n invade_v the_o priestly_a office_n a_o sin_n so_o grievous_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n that_o for_o this_o very_a thing_n for_o
