be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o descend_v first_o that_o be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o come_v down_o from_o heaven_n before_o and_o then_o he_o must_v be_v in_o heaven_n before_o the_o beginning_n if_o in_o the_o beginning_n he_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n which_o they_o say_v but_o then_o mark_v the_o clause_n that_o be_v one_o who_o be_v in_o heaven_n when_o our_o saviour_n speak_v it_o to_o the_o late_a they_o say_v that_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d existens_fw-la be_v in_o heaven_n because_o it_o be_v a_o participle_n of_o the_o present_a tense_n by_o a_o grecism_n may_v be_v understand_v of_o

fit_a for_o we_o to_o think_v that_o our_o saviour_n in_o so_o pithy_a a_o short_a delivery_n of_o such_o mystery_n do_v use_v any_o tautology_n or_o unnecessary_a or_o non-significant_a term_n now_o consider_v if_o he_o have_v say_v that_o no_o man_n ascend_v into_o heaven_n but_o he_o that_o descend_v who_o be_v in_o heaven_n what_o will_v this_o last_o clause_n add_v to_o the_o rest_n no_o

be_v apparent_a to_o every_o man_n upon_o the_o repeat_n of_o the_o very_a term_n who_o understand'_v they_o and_o therefore_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v construe_v who_o be_v in_o heaven_n there_o must_v be_v something_o more_o in_o it_o then_o i_o can_v discern_v or_o else_o it_o be_v a_o tautology_n but_o no_o such_o thing_n take_v it_o who_o be_v in_o heaven_n because_o that_o be_v neither_o

in_o the_o first_o sense_n i_o do_v wonder_n socinus_n and_o they_o do_v not_o apply_v it_o to_o our_o saviour_n be_v with_o god_n in_o contemplation_n even_o before_o john_n baptist_n his_o preach_n
