make_v up_o of_o convert_a gentile_n now_o over_o each_o of_o these_o church_n there_o do_v preside_v a_o bishop_n with_o his_o deacon_n so_o that_o frequent_o you_o shall_v find_v in_o

there_o be_v no_o necessity_n then_o for_o we_o to_o conceive_v that_o st._n paul_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o timothy_n do_v mean_a presbyter_n when_o he_o speak_v of_o bishop_n but_o rather_o that_o

in_o the_o salutation_n that_o there_o be_v no_o argument_n to_o prove_v that_o they_o be_v at_o all_o in_o the_o city_n whither_o the_o salutation_n be_v send_v for_o epiphanius_n tell_v we_o that_o

will_v prove_v the_o office_n and_o order_n of_o bishop_n and_o presbyter_n to_o have_v be_v the_o same_o in_o the_o apostle_n day_n because_o forsooth_o the_o name_n be_v give_v to_o both_o in_o

bishop_n and_o presbyter_n indifferent_o and_o promiscuous_o to_o those_o of_o both_o order_n there_o be_v no_o necessity_n for_o we_o to_o admit_v of_o a_o community_n of_o name_n because_o those_o

to_o a_o presbyter_n this_o will_v appear_v from_o a_o particular_a view_n of_o the_o several_a text_n which_o if_o we_o can_v understand_v without_o be_v oblige_v to_o confound_v name_n then_o
