and_o the_o whole_a people_n be_v tax_v 1_o king_n 3._o 2_o 3._o and_o you_o need_v not_o doubt_v the_o priest_n be_v there_o too_o for_o be_v the_o place_n where_o it_o will_v none_o by_o moses_n law_n can_v sacrifice_v but_o the_o priest_n nay_o not_o only_a solomon_n but_o the_o succeed_a record_n of_o all_o their_o good_a king_n still_o run_v with_o this_o abatement_n he_o walk_v in_o the_o way_n of_o david_n his_o father_n but_o the_o high_a place_n be_v not_o take_v away_o the_o people_n still_o offer_v sacrifice_n in_o the_o top_n of_o the_o high_a place_n it_o be_v thus_o say_v of_o no_o less_o than_o seven_o solomon_n and_o asa_n jehosaphat_n jehoash_n amaziah_n azariah_n and_o jothan_n cardinal_n cajetan_n think_v this_o gross_a corruption_n be_v as_o general_a as_o if_o the_o jew_n resolve_v to_o make_v null_a moses_n law_n by_o a_o hebrew_n custom_n to_o the_o contrary_a and_o they_o have_v do_v it_o without_o doubt_n be_v our_o sin_n as_o well_o able_a to_o abrogate_v a_o law_n as_o we_o well_o know_v they_o be_v to_o break_v it_o this_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o cardinal_n conceive_v this_o abuse_n be_v grow_v into_o a_o custom_n national_a which_o have_v there_o spread_v itself_o over_o all_o sort_n and_o kind_a of_o person_n so_o that_o it_o find_v no_o open_a no_o constant_a opposition_n at_o all_o from_o any_o body_n of_o man_n then_o considerable_a have_v it_o it_o be_v clear_a enough_o that_o custom_n thus_o oppose_v can_v put_v humane_a law_n in_o no_o danger_n but_o i_o need_v not_o quote_v such_o authority_n the_o very_a word_n there_o use_v where_o the_o text_n speak_v of_o those_o king_n infer_v this_o truth_n strong_o enough_o but_o the_o high_a place_n be_v not_o take_v away_o the_o people_n still_o offer_v sacrifice_n in_o the_o high_a place_n for_o that_o word_n the_o people_n when_o it_o be_v put_v single_o and_o without_o opposition_n imply_v without_o doubt_n the_o whole_a nation_n which_o it_o point_v at_o thus_o when_o god_n command_v moses_n speak_v now_o in_o the_o ear_n of_o the_o people_n or_o in_o those_o word_n to_o pharaoh_n let_v my_o people_n go_v no_o doubt_n but_o that_o word_n do_v point_n at_o each_o several_a jew_n and_o though_o sometime_o it_o may_v well_o bear_v a_o sense_n less_o general_a yet_o it_o then_o imply_v so_o much_o the_o far_o great_a number_n that_o common_o what_o remain_v be_v neither_o a_o part_n eminent_a nor_o considerable_a nay_o to_o go_v no_o far_o than_o my_o text_n it_o be_v plain_a enough_o from_o these_o word_n of_o rabshakeh_n who_o have_v take_v so_o many_o city_n have_v now_o spend_v some_o good_a time_n in_o jewry_n that_o this_o corruption_n be_v so_o universal_o spread_v without_o any_o visible_a any_o note_a part_n to_o oppose_v it_o that_o he_o conceive_v it_o the_o only_a true_a service_n of_o the_o god_n of_o israel_n with_o what_o face_n else_o can_v he_o have_v tell_v the_o jew_n they_o have_v no_o hope_n in_o their_o god_n because_o their_o king_n have_v quite_o overturn_v his_o religion_n have_v there_o indeed_o be_v any_o number_n of_o note_n that_o have_v oppose_v this_o corruption_n be_v it_o at_o all_o probable_a it_o will_v have_v be_v conceal_v in_o these_o hebrew_n history_n their_o penman_n we_o know_v be_v all_o zealous_a enough_o to_o preserve_v the_o honour_n of_o judea_n and_o yet_o in_o this_o particular_a we_o find_v a_o still_o total_a silence_n and_o if_o any_o man_n will_v needs_o hold_v the_o contrary_a they_o who_o call_v so_o much_o for_o catalogue_n of_o name_n may_v in_o justice_n demand_v of_o this_o grand_a undertaker_n to_o show_v a_o list_n of_o those_o jew_n who_o from_o age_n to_o age_n whilst_o this_o corruption_n hold_v do_v not_o at_o all_o worship_n in_o high_a place_n but_o you_o will_v demand_v perhaps_o for_o how_o long_o a_o time_n be_v the_o hebrew_n church_n thus_o corrupt_v and_o indeed_o learned_a man_n differ_v here_o some_o think_v this_o abuse_n begin_v in_o the_o time_n of_o othoniel_n and_o ehud_n judge_n other_o place_v it_o in_o the_o day_n of_o gideon_n admit_v either_o of_o these_o conjecture_n and_o it_o will_v be_v plain_a in_o chronology_n that_o this_o forbid_a worship_n hold_v no_o less_o than_o six_o hundred_o year_n for_o all_o agree_v hezekiah_n be_v the_o first_o who_o dare_v be_v so_o good_a in_o those_o bad_a time_n as_o to_o reform_v this_o corruption_n but_o grant_v we_o do_v abate_v of_o this_o since_o great_a clerk_n conceive_v that_o from_o the_o time_n that_o the_o ark_n be_v part_v from_o the_o tabernacle_n which_o be_v no_o less_o than_o ninety_o year_n from_o the_o day_n of_o eli_n the_o priest_n when_o the_o ark_n go_v captive_a to_o philistia_n until_o they_o both_o meet_v again_o in_o the_o temple_n of_o solomon_n it_o be_v lawful_a to_o sacrifice_v at_o more_o than_o one_o only_a altar_n because_o god_n have_v promise_v his_o more_o immediate_a presence_n as_o well_o before_o the_o ark_n as_o before_o the_o tabernacle_n for_o this_o reason_n i_o say_v though_o perhaps_o it_o hold_v not_o grant_v we_o abate_v of_o that_o time_n what_o i_o find_v establish_v by_o common_a consent_n will_v prove_v large_a enough_o to_o support_v all_o my_o whole_a intention_n for_o no_o man_n dare_v deny_v the_o text_n be_v so_o plain_a in_o that_o catalogue_n of_o king_n i_o relate_v that_o this_o corruption_n hold_v from_o the_o day_n of_o solomon_n unto_o the_o reign_n of_o king_n hezekiah_n and_o so_o no_o less_o than_o upon_o the_o point_n of_o three_o hundred_o year_n as_o be_v plain_a by_o the_o computation_n of_o arias_n montanus_n and_o by_o the_o most_o exact_a in_o chronology_n so_o then_o three_o thing_n be_v here_o very_o considerable_a first_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o corruption_n it_o be_v in_o the_o censure_n of_o god_n law_n no_o less_o than_o the_o sin_n of_o murder_n and_o in_o the_o censure_n of_o the_o jew_n it_o deserve_v no_o less_o than_o the_o revenge_n of_o a_o plain_a civil_a war._n second_o the_o extent_n of_o this_o corruption_n it_o have_v spread_v itself_o throughout_o the_o whole_a face_n of_o judea_n so_o that_o all_o that_o be_v at_o that_o time_n god_n visible_a church_n be_v at_o once_o involve_v in_o this_o error_n for_o i_o need_v not_o now_o speak_v of_o the_o ten_o tribe_n their_o high_a place_n be_v make_v waste_n as_o be_v plain_a enough_o from_o the_o calf_n of_o dan_n and_o of_o bethel_n three_o the_o continuance_n of_o this_o corruption_n it_o hold_v probable_o for_o six_o but_o no_o man_n can_v deny_v that_o it_o remain_v in_o the_o church_n of_o jewry_n upon_o the_o point_n of_o three_o century_n of_o year_n hence_o it_o will_v follow_v clear_o the_o whole_a visible_a church_n may_v be_v so_o far_o corrupt_v that_o though_o she_o forsake_v not_o god_n and_o so_o run_v in_o non_fw-la ecclesiam_fw-la to_o be_v no_o church_n at_o all_o yet_o for_o a_o long_a time_n she_o may_v do_v public_a worship_n in_o a_o most_o gross_a forbid_a manner_n and_o this_o kind_n of_o abuse_n may_v be_v so_o dangerous_a that_o upon_o its_o full_a discovery_n both_o prince_n and_o people_n may_v be_v in_o conscience_n bind_v to_o embrace_v reformation_n have_v god_n church_n of_o the_o law_n be_v so_o foul_o blemish_v and_o may_v that_o of_o the_o gospel_n boast_v of_o a_o more_o constant_a beauty_n be_v the_o promise_n of_o this_o kind_n more_o large_a to_o we_o than_o they_o be_v to_o that_o church_n wherein_o god_n own_o son_n be_v bear_v she_o in_o as_o plain_a term_n be_v then_o call_v the_o spouse_n of_o god_n i_o will_v betrothe_v thou_o unto_o i_o for_o ever_o say_v the_o lord_n hos._n 2._o his_o people_n and_o his_o flock_n we_o be_v the_o people_n of_o his_o pasture_n and_o the_o sheep_n of_o his_o

a_o reformation_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o strange_a thing_n that_o any_o christian_a church_n which_o god_n have_v place_v among_o gentile_n shall_v be_v so_o puff_v up_o with_o a_o thought_n of_o her_o own_o
