depose_v by_o any_o lay_v power_n for_o if_o god_n in_o the_o jewish_a church_n do_v subject_a their_o ecclesiastic_o to_o a_o lay-deposition_n no_o doubt_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n it_o may_v be_v lawful_a but_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o first_o god_n do_v so_o subject_a the_o jewish_a ecclesiastic_o to_o such_o a_o lay-authority_n and_o second_o suppose_v that_o god_n have_v so_o subject_v their_o ecclesiastic_o the_o next_o question_n be_v whether_o he_o have_v in_o like_a manner_n so_o subject_v the_o christian_a hierarchy_n for_o if_o there_o be_v any_o specific_a

to_o conceive_v that_o the_o jewish_a religion_n in_o what_o it_o be_v peculiarly_a jewish_a be_v only_o of_o a_o carnal_a sanctity_n in_o order_n only_o to_o temporal_a fruition_n and_o so_o may_v be_v under_o the_o conduct_n of_o temporal_a power_n that_o be_v the_o supreme_a guardian_n of_o all_o temporal_a enjoyment_n but_o the_o christian_a religion_n be_v pure_o spiritual_a not_o subordinate_v to_o temporal_a end_n and_o so_o not_o under_o the_o like_a authority_n of_o temporal_a power_n now_o whatsoever_o be_v the_o civil_a authority_n about_o matter_n christian_a i_o suppose_v the_o essential_a difference_n of_o our_o religion_n from_o the_o jewish_a will_v bar_v the_o argument_n for_o the_o same_o rule_n of_o subjection_n and_o if_o you_o please_v upon_o

and_o ab._n pag._n 21_o 22._o first_o that_o the_o whole_a institution_n of_o the_o levitical_a law_n be_v not_o of_o a_o spiritual_a but_o carnal_a sanctity_n yield_v they_o by_o god_n somewhat_o in_o opposition_n and_o somewhat_o in_o conformity_n to_o the_o egyptian_a or_o other_o foreign_a religion_n among_o who_o the_o priesthood_n have_v be_v long_o subject_v to_o and_o perhaps_o first_o institute_v by_o the_o sceptre_n and_o herein_o the_o supreme_a judgement_n in_o civil_n upon_o the_o law_n and_o oracular_a response_n upon_o consultation_n about_o peace_n war_n and_o temporal_a action_n and_o success_n be_v essential_a to_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o pontificate_n and_o yet_o we_o find_v this_o highpriest_n not_o subject_a to_o any_o ordinary_a power_n till_o king_n be_v also_o give_v this_o people_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o nation_n among_o who_o the_o mitre_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o crown_n all_o which_o put_v together_o make_v abiathar_n be_v deprivation_n by_o a_o temporal_a power_n under_o that_o constitution_n legal_a but_o from_o the_o beginning_n it_o be_v not_o so_o then_o there_o be_v priest_n who_o till_o the_o flood_n have_v the_o government_n of_o the_o world_n without_o any_o civil_a or_o military_a power_n and_o that_o priesthood_n be_v in_o all_o its_o intention_n spiritual_a so_o that_o when_o our_o saviour_n come_v not_o only_o to_o restore_v but_o even_o to_o refine_v upon_o the_o primitive_a rule_n he_o restore_v the_o priesthood_n from_o vassalage_n and_o found_v his_o hierarchy_n not_o in_o prince_n but_o apostle_n not_o inarm_v but_o in_o unarmed_a power_n but_o if_o among_o the_o nation_n of_o old_a the_o carnal_a priesthood_n be_v subject_a to_o arbitrary_a and_o imperial_a power_n and_o god_n concede_v the_o jew_n king_n with_o such_o power_n after_o that_o gentile_a manner_n the_o jewish_a high-priest_n thereupon_o become_v subject_a not_o only_o to_o a_o judicial_a but_o imperial_a authority_n and_o so_o legal_o deprivable_a at_o the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o secular_a prince_n so_o far_o at_o least_o that_o these_o censure_n may_v be_v effectual_o valid_a though_o not_o always_o good_a and_o just_a and_o hence_o all_o the_o change_n of_o the_o high-priest_n violent_o and_o arbitrary_o make_v by_o heathen_a prince_n in_o the_o jewish_a pontificate_n seem_v to_o be_v legal_o
