A77296	A treatise of the high rebellion of man against God in blasphemy: shewing what it is according to God in the law. And proving, that men not knowing the sin, come daily to commit it, without the sense thereof. With an examination of an ordinance made by the Lords, and the Act made by the late Parliament against the same. Written by an unworthy witness of the name and soveraignty of the Jehovah elohims, John Brayne.	Brayne, John.	1654 (1654)	Wing B4333; Thomason E725_22; ESTC R206776	13,332	15
