there_o be_v the_o same_o priesthood_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o melchisedek_n for_o which_o if_o need_v be_v god_n himself_o will_v give_v we_o his_o oath_n 4._o therefore_o there_o be_v the_o same_o right_n under_o both_o tithe_n therefore_o be_v due_a to_o christ_n in_o who_o and_o from_o who_o and_o by_o who_o we_o be_v all_o bless_a he_o himself_o bless_v for_o ever_o which_o it_o be_v but_o equal_a that_o they_o shall_v receive_v in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n who_o bless_v we_o in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n for_o even_o melchisedek_n blessing_n be_v but_o from_o man_n though_o in_o the_o person_n and_o name_n of_o christ_n therefore_o the_o right_a of_o tithe_n remain_v under_o christ_n i_o have_v not_o think_v there_o have_v be_v any_o bear_v with_o so_o unfortunate_a a_o

all_o reason_n 1._o the_o levite_n have_v right_a to_o tithe_n they_o have_v as_o god_n vicar_n it_o be_v true_a they_o be_v but_o be_v they_o god_n vicar_n as_o god_n be_v a_o king_n o_o what_o a_o

will_v you_o conclude_v 22._o he_o therefore_o vow_v a_o vow_n if_o the_o lord_n will_v be_v with_o i_o and_o keep_v i_o and_o will_v give_v i_o bread_n to_o eat_v and_o taiment_n to_o put_v on_o

have_v vow_v what_o the_o lord_n have_v disavow_v therefore_o doubtless_o he_o rely_v upon_o the_o divine_a will_n the_o command_n be_v the_o interpreter_n of_o that_o will_n moreover_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o command_n must_v necessary_o be_v this_o on_o who_o the_o lord_n shall_v bestow_v such_o favor_n as_o he_o do_v on_o jacob_n he_o must_v be_v bind_v to_o the_o lord_n by_o the_o same_o
