four_o principal_a doubt_n do_v arise_v first_o how_o it_o be_v say_v sichem_n that_o the_o father_n be_v remove_v into_o sichem_n whereas_o the_o scripture_n make_v mention_v only_o of_o the_o bury_n of_o josephs_n bone_n there_o jos._n 24.32_o but_o this_o doubt_n be_v easy_o remove_v for_o although_o that_o special_a mention_n be_v make_v of_o joseph_n only_o both_o because_o he_o be_v the_o

yet_o some_o other_o of_o the_o disciple_n may_v consent_v unto_o he_o 3._o some_o do_v understand_v it_o joint_o of_o jacob_n and_o the_o father_n that_o part_n of_o they_o be_v bury_v in_o sichem_n

there_o be_v no_o reason_n for_o stephen_n to_o name_v his_o grandfather_n here_o 2._o wherefore_o this_o doubt_n be_v more_o easy_o salve_v thus_o that_o whereas_o in_o the_o original_n there_o be_v neither_o father_n nor_o son_n express_v but_o only_o thus_o hemor_n of_o sichem_n the_o scripture_n will_v bear_v it_o as_o well_o to_o understand_v father_n as_o son_n as_o luk._n 24.10_o we_o

put_v in_o the_o tomb_n by_o the_o son_n of_o hemor_n of_o sichem_n which_o abraham_n buy_v and_o will_v have_v this_o to_o be_v the_o meaning_n that_o the_o sichemite_n translate_v the_o patriarch_n from_o sichem_n to_o hebron_n not_o vouchsafe_v they_o any_o burial_n among_o they_o but_o beside_o that_o there_o be_v no_o evidence_n of_o this_o fact_n out_o of_o the_o scripture_n it_o be_v more_o like_a that_o the_o sichemite_n abhor_v the_o memory_n of_o simeon_n and_o levi_n their_o cruelty_n will_v rather_o have_v unbury_v they_o than_o honour_v they_o with_o their_o father_n grave_n and_o

to_o be_v mistake_v for_o another_o 2._o as_o also_o there_o can_v be_v no_o copy_n show_v that_o read_v jacob_n for_o abraham_n neither_o greek_a syriake_n or_o latin_a 3._o and_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o stephen_n point_v at_o that_o sepulchre_n which_o abraham_n buy_v for_o jaecob_n buy_v not_o a_o sepulchre_n but_o a_o piece_n of_o ground_n to_o build_v a_o altar_n in_o and_o for_o a_o
