there_o be_v a_o double_a sense_n the_o one_o be_v the_o state_n of_o the_o people_n come_v out_o of_o egypt_n &_o this_o be_v the_o literal_a and_o first_o sense_n the_o other_o be_v the_o foreshowing_a and_o shadow_a out_o of_o christ_n who_o be_v to_o be_v crucify_v and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o in_o intention_n though_o last_o in_o accomplishment_n by_o which_o allegation_n it_o appear_v plain_o that_o the_o ancient_n seldom_o or_o never_o call_v the_o paschall_n lamb_n a_o sacrifice_n and_o in_o what_o respect_v they_o compare_v it_o to_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o answer_v unto_o the_o second_o argument_n the_o three_o argument_n which_o be_v allege_v by_o the_o romanist_n 3._o and_o whereupon_o they_o most_o depend_v be_v ground_v on_o the_o pprophecy_n of_o malachy_n chap._n 1._o 11._o for_o from_o the_o rise_n of_o the_o sunue_n to_o the_o go_v down_o of_o the_o same_o my_o name_n shall_v be_v great_a among_o the_o gentile_n and_o in_o every_o place_n incense_n shall_v be_v offer_v to_o my_o name_n and_o a_o pure_a offering_n for_o my_o name_n shall_v be_v great_a among_o the_o heathen_a say_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n see_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n be_v so_o general_o offer_v among_o all_o gentile_n therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o pure_a oblation_n foretell_v by_o the_o prophet_n malachy_n and_o that_o this_o sacrifice_n may_v the_o better_o appear_v bellarmine_n allege_v these_o reason_n first_o from_o the_o signification_n of_o the_o hebrew_n word_n mincha_fw-mi which_o proper_o betoken_v a_o external_a 10._o sacrifice_n make_v with_o oil_n and_o incense_n and_o therefore_o can_v be_v understand_v of_o spiritual_a and_o internal_a sacrifice_n second_o it_o be_v call_v a_o pure_a offering_n such_o as_o can_v be_v pollute_v but_o prayer_n may_v be_v pollute_v only_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n can_v be_v defile_v by_o the_o illnesse_n of_o the_o minister_n three_o the_o prophet_n speak_v of_o such_o a_o offer_v as_o be_v not_o in_o use_n among_o the_o jew_n say_v i_o will_v not_o accept_v any_o offering_n at_o your_o hand_n but_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n 10._o be_v in_o use_n among_o they_o four_o the_o prophet_n speak_v direct_o to_o the_o priest_n thus_o say_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n unto_o you_o oh_o you_o priest_n and_o reprove_v their_o sacrifice_n bring_v in_o a_o 6._o new_a kind_n of_o offering_n which_o a_o new_a priesthood_n shall_v offer_v to_o god_n which_o can_v be_v mean_v of_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n to_o these_o we_o answer_v that_o the_o intent_n of_o the_o lord_n by_o the_o prophet_n be_v to_o oppose_v the_o gentile_n against_o the_o answer_n jew_n and_o show_v the_o difference_n between_o the_o leviticall_a sacrifice_n which_o they_o defile_v and_o the_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n which_o shall_v be_v offer_v not_o by_o one_o nation_n only_o but_o by_o every_o people_n under_o the_o new_a testament_n wherefore_o the_o prophet_n do_v comprehend_v the_o whole_a externo_fw-la service_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n under_o these_o three_o head_n 1._o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n 2._o invocation_n or_o call_n upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n by_o prayer_n 3._o liberality_n towards_o the_o poor_a in_o work_n of_o charity_n the_o first_o be_v show_v in_o these_o word_n from_o the_o rise_n of_o the_o sun_n to_o the_o set_n of_o the_o same_o my_o name_n shall_v be_v great_a among_o the_o gentile_n the_o second_o in_o these_o word_n and_o in_o every_o place_n incense_n shall_v be_v offer_v to_o my_o name_n the_o three_o be_v signify_v by_o the_o word_n mincha_fw-mi or_o a_o pure_a oblation_n for_o as_o zanchius_n observe_v by_o the_o name_n ibid._n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n all_o beneficence_n and_o liberality_n be_v signify_v in_o the_o scripture_n so_o jacob_n call_v the_o present_a he_o 25.27_o send_v his_o brother_n esau_n mincha_fw-mi and_o abigail_n the_o present_a she_o bring_v to_o david_n by_o the_o same_o name_n but_o i_o tie_v not_o myself_o precise_o to_o this_o exposition_n of_o zanchius_n understand_v by_o mincha_fw-mi beneficence_n or_o liberality_n therefore_o i_o answer_v to_o bellarmin_n that_o if_o he_o will_v have_v mincha_fw-mi understand_v properly_z and_o not_o 〈◊〉_d than_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o prophet_n do_v speak_v in_o that_o place_n of_o the_o jewish_a ceremony_n which_o shall_v beuse_v among_o christian_n but_o with_o more_o purity_n then_o among_o the_o jew_n but_o the_o papist_n confess_v that_o he_o speak_v not_o of_o jewish_a sacrifice_n but_o of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christian_n again_o if_o he_o will_v have_v mincha_fw-mi to_o be_v understand_v metaphorical_o than_o the_o mass_n be_v but_o figurative_o a_o sacrifice_n and_o not_o proper_o at_o most_o it_o will_v be_v but_o flower_n or_o bread_n without_o any_o transubstantiation_n as_o mincha_fw-mi be_v and_o whereas_o bellarmine_n infer_v that_o because_o mincha_fw-mi signify_v properly_z a_o offering_n of_o flower_n or_o bread_n with_o oil_n and_o incense_n therefore_o it_o can_v be_v understand_v of_o the_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n of_o christian_n how_o unschollerlike_a and_o therefore_o how_o unlike_o himself_o do_v he_o argue_v who_o know_v not_o that_o many_o thing_n be_v speak_v figurative_o be_v apply_v improper_o from_o their_o native_a signification_n to_o signify_v thing_n which_o indeed_o they_o be_v not_o i_o be_o a_o door_n say_v christ_n i_o be_o the_o vine_n if_o these_o thing_n be_v understand_v literal_o and_o not_o metaphorical_o we_o shall_v make_v but_o a_o bad_a construction_n but_o a_o example_n like_o this_o of_o the_o prophet_n malachy_n may_v be_v that_o of_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n where_o speak_v of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n among_o the_o gentile_n he_o faith_n and_o they_o shall_v bring_v all_o your_o brethren_n 66.20_o for_o a_o offering_n to_o the_o lord_n out_o of_o all_o
