how_o to_o contemn_v they_o then_o to_o answer_v they_o so_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n the_o author_n let_v it_o alone_o since_o that_o time_n i_o myself_o have_v fall_v upon_o the_o whole_a sermon_n

it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o be_v worthy_a of_o great_a praise_n which_o do_v their_o office_n justly_o and_o saint_n paul_n say_v in_o his_o 5._o chap._n 1._o timoth_n the_o elder_n that_o rule_v well_o be_v worthy_a of_o double_a honour_n especial_o they_o which_o labour_n in_o the_o word_n and_o doctrine_n we_o say_v the_o place_n be_v understand_v of_o the_o preacher_n of_o the_o word_n peter_n verides_n and_o nicholas_n emingius_n in_o the_o 133._o pa._n of_o their_o book_n say_v that_o such_o preiste_n be_v worthy_a of_o double_a honour_n there_o be_v one_o note_v that_o when_o

be_v bold_a to_o say_v it_o do_v not_o for_o he_o inteprrete_v the_o place_n that_o they_o which_o labour_n be_v worthy_a of_o double_a honour_n but_o he_o do_v not_o speak_v of_o any_o minister_n save_v only_o they_o which_o preach_v the_o word_n sincerilie_o therefore_o he_o speak_v and_o make_v difference_n between_o preacher_n &_o preacher_n i_o say_v not_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o

understande_v the_o place_n of_o the_o preacher_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o they_o say_v if_o we_o shall_v so_o expound_v it_o we_o shall_v make_v the_o apostle_n to_o go_v backward_o and_o

that_o here_o we_o may_v see_v that_o the_o interpreter_n do_v not_o expound_v this_o place_n after_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n or_o of_o ream_n but_o s._n ambrose_n chrisostome_n and_o augustin_n here_o we_o see_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v seem_v to_o make_v two_o kind_n of_o miinster_n the_o one_o which_o be_v occupy_v in_o the_o word_n but_o not_o well_o &_o why_o shall_v that_o seem_v strange_a to_o make_v two_o kind_n of_o preacher_n or_o minister_n for_o my_o part_n i_o wish_v with_o all_o my_o heart_n that_o all_o that_o be_v place_v in_o england_n be_v better_a than_o myself_o and_o that_o it_o be_v so_o through_o all_o nation_n where_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v preach_v and_o i_o pray_v to_o god_n that_o the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v preach_v throughout_o the_o whole_a world_n the_o apostle_n say_v that_o in_o his_o time_n there_o be_v many_o which_o labour_v not_o so_o much_o as_o he_o i_o thank_v god_n say_v the_o apostle_n i_o labour_v better_a than_o they_o all_o yet_o they_o deserve_v honour_n but_o not_o so_o much_o as_o he_o because_o they_o labour_v not_o so_o much_o as_o he_o for_o god_n have_v not_o give_v to_o every_o one_o the_o self_n same_o gift_n furthermore_o they_o define_v this_o word_n labour_n be_v speak_v to_o all_o as_o well_o that_o be_v able_a to_o do_v most_o as_o those_o that_o be_v able_a to_o do_v least_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n write_n to_o the_o thess_n call_v they_o labourer_n although_o there_o be_v some_o which_o be_v wicked_a amongst_o they_o furthermore_o they_o add_v this_o distinction_n be_v dissolute_a and_o clean_o void_a of_o true_a discipline_n if_o they_o be_v but_o minister_n and_o take_v not_o so_o great_a pain_n yet_o they_o be_v worthy_a of_o honour_n though_o not_o so_o great_a as_o the_o rest_n but_o of_o the_o honour_n of_o widow_n and_o he_o speak_v of_o honour_n of_o widow_n in_o chap._n 5._o ver_fw-la 1_o 2._o honour_n the_o elder_a woman_n as_o mother_n the_o
