to_o loose_v to_o open_v which_o be_v the_o one_o half_a of_o the_o power_n agree_v in_o one_o and_o signify_v the_o same_o thing_n so_o do_v the_o other_o three_o to_o retain_v to_o bind_v to_o

great_a deliverance_n which_o be_v now_o work_v for_o they_o and_o therefore_o where_o they_o see_v the_o one_o they_o shall_v expect_v the_o other_o sch._n i_o believe_v you_o have_v guess_v right_o

another_o argument_n which_o christ_n use_v in_o his_o own_o defence_n against_o this_o calumny_n of_o the_o pharisee_n but_o i_o confess_v i_o do_v not_o yet_o apprehend_v it_o mast_n it_o be_v not_o unlikely_a but_o anon_o you_o will_n this_o be_v indeed_o a_o three_o argument_n of_o christ_n and_o it_o touch_v to_o the_o quick_a for_o whereas_o his_o other_o two_o serve_v only_o to_o convince_v certain_a man_n this_o come_v to_o the_o very_a thing_n itself_o and_o quite_o overthrow_v it_o there_o have_v be_v say_v christ_n who_o have_v cast_v out_o devil_n through_o beelzebub_n it_o may_v be_v so_o but_o this_o have_v be_v without_o any_o harm_n or_o loss_n from_o the_o one_o unto_o the_o other_o it_o have_v not_o come_v to_o spoil_v of_o good_n to_o extirpate_v out_o of_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n any_o of_o their_o sin_n but_o rather_o to_o increase_v they_o this_o have_v be_v nothing_o but_o a_o mere_a collusion_n and_o cheat_n but_o when_o i_o cast_v out_o devil_n you_o may_v see_v i_o spoil_v they_o to_o the_o purpose_n i_o rob_v they_o of_o their_o power_n for_o i_o plant_v in_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n such_o doctrine_n as_o will_v admit_v of_o no_o vice_n and_o wickedness_n to_o be_v near_o it_o wherein_o the_o power_n of_o the_o devil_n do_v consist_v and_o therefore_o you_o may_v well_o imagine_v that_o i_o be_o in_o good_a earnest_n for_o i_o bind_v he_o and_o spoil_v he_o which_o no_o one_o devil_n ever_o yet_o do_v unto_o another_o or_o ever_o will_n schol._n i_o shall_v desire_v to_o put_v you_o to_o no_o more_o trouble_n in_o this_o verse_n if_o you_o please_v let_v we_o pass_v unto_o the_o next_o mast_n as_o i_o take_v it_o that_o be_v this_o he_o that_o be_v not_o with_o i_o be_v against_o i_o and_o he_o that_o gather_v not_o with_o i_o

follow_v upon_o what_o go_v before_o i_o see_v not_o what_o our_o saviour_n christ_n may_v intend_v by_o they_o mast_n have_v declare_v himself_o to_o be_v so_o far_o from_o cast_v out_o devil_n in_o the_o name_n of_o beelzebub_n that_o he_o labour_v to_o bind_v even_o beelzebub_n himself_o and_o to_o spoil_v he_o of_o all_o his_o power_n which_o he_o exercise_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o wicked_a man_n he_o carry_v the_o consideration_n of_o this_o enmity_n between_o the_o devil_n and_o himself_o to_o such_o a_o height_n as_o that_o he_o will_v not_o admit_v of_o any_o neutrality_n in_o any_o other_o man_n profess_v that_o whosoever_o be_v not_o the_o devil_n enemy_n be_v he_o according_a to_o that_o axiom_n of_o the_o war_n medii_fw-la habentur_fw-la pro_fw-la hostibus_fw-la all_o

therefore_o have_v say_v this_o conceive_v he_o have_v say_v as_o much_o as_o man_n can_v say_v he_o add_v wherefore_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o vers_n 31._o that_o be_v see_v it_o be_v evident_a by_o

they_o very_o believe_v that_o the_o miracle_n which_o he_o wrought_v be_v wrought_v by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n but_o yet_o he_o see_v that_o they_o will_v rather_o invent_v any_o lie_n or_o

you_o must_v know_v that_o you_o be_v much_o mistake_v both_o in_o the_o one_o and_o in_o the_o other_o opinion_n for_o first_o it_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v that_o christ_n speak_v not_o of_o all_o

ghost_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o next_o verse_n he_o say_v whosoever_o speak_v a_o word_n against_o the_o son_n of_o man_n that_o be_v whosoever_o slander_v or_o calumniate_v any_o other_o man_n it_o shall_v be_v forgive_v he_o and_o in_o those_o word_n he_o expound_v what_o he_o mean_v by_o sin_n and_o blasphemy_n second_o it_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v that_o when_o he_o say_v all_o manner_n of_o sin_n and_o blasphemy_n shall_v be_v forgive_v there_o be_v a_o hebraism_n in_o those_o word_n which_o be_v often_o meet_v withal_o in_o scripture_n as_o in_o the_o 5_o chap._n of_o st._n matthew_n heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v away_o but_o my_o word_n shall_v not_o pass_v away_o that_o be_v heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v soon_o pass_v away_o than_o my_o word_n shall_v

call_v blaspheme_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v the_o case_n of_o these_o pharisee_n who_o calumniate_v the_o miracle_n which_o our_o saviour_n wrought_v as_o proceed_v from_o the_o devil_n
