otherwise_o the_o difference_n may_v be_v which_o it_o be_v needless_a for_o we_o to_o contend_v about_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o jewish_a high-priest_n be_v rather_o superior_a than_o

from_o god_n alone_o that_o he_o receive_v his_o authority_n if_o therefore_o a_o person_n be_v accept_v of_o by_o god_n as_o a_o true_a and_o real_a highpriest_n though_o put_v into_o the_o room_n of_o another_o depose_v by_o the_o civil_a authority_n than_o a_o bishop_n likewise_o may_v be_v true_o a_o bishop_n and_o according_o oughts_z to_o be_v receive_v though_o put_v into_o the_o place_n of_o a_o bishop_n depose_v by_o that_o power_n to_o this_o i_o add_v that_o the_o annual_a expiation_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o whole_a people_n be_v to_o be_v perform_v by_o the_o highpriest_n this_o be_v the_o chief_a of_o the_o federal_a rite_n of_o that_o religion_n and_o that_o to_o which_o our_o saviour_n offering_n himself_o up_o a_o sacrifice_n be_v particular_o compare_v in_o the_o

pace_n maximi_fw-la ●iri_fw-la that_o this_o notion_n of_o heresy_n be_v a_o groundless_a and_o a_o fancyfull_a notion_n that_o he_o may_v be_v proper_o call_v a_o heretic_n who_o separate_v from_o
