the_o people_n among_o the_o reason_n why_o the_o priest_n under_o the_o law_n be_v command_v to_o put_v on_o their_o linen_n garment_n when_o they_o minister_v in_o the_o sanctuary_n and_o at_o the_o

the_o sacrament_n which_o be_v thing_n for_o the_o people_n under_o the_o gospel_n without_o any_o ministerial_a garment_n devise_v and_o institute_v only_o by_o man_n as_o it_o be_v for_o the_o

of_o the_o prohibition_n of_o the_o priest_n put_v on_o their_o holy_a and_o priestly_a garment_n when_o they_o approach_v into_o the_o utter_a court_n to_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v for_o the_o people_n be_v this_o namely_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o sanctify_v the_o people_n with_o their_o garment_n we_o demand_v with_o what_o reason_n deduce_v from_o holy_a writ_n you_o can_v impugn_v this_o position_n viz._n that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n to_o preserve_v the_o equity_n and_o integrity_n of_o that_o prohibition_n aswell_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o in_o the_o
