give_v they_o both_o ordination_n at_o the_o same_o moment_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o if_o one_o consider_v the_o original_a of_o this_o ceremony_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o one_o may_v safe_o agree_v to_o lay_v hand_n on_o two_o minister_n at_o once_o as_o for_o the_o original_a and_o the_o ceremony_n every_o body_n know_v it_o come_v from_o jesus_n christ_n

derive_v this_o custom_n thence_o when_o they_o use_v it_o if_o it_o appear_v then_o that_o any_o of_o the_o patriarch_n bless_v two_o person_n at_o once_o in_o put_v one_o hand_n on_o the_o head_n of_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o hand_n on_o the_o head_n of_o the_o other_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o one_o be_v sufficient_o authorize_v to_o give_v imposition_n of_o hand_n to_o two_o minister_n at_o the_o same_o time_n now_o to_o know_v if_o the_o patriarch_n do_v so_o you_o need_v only_o read_v genesis_n 48._o where_o jacob_n bless_v the_o two_o son_n of_o joseph_n purposely_o set_v his_o
