the_o design_n of_o christ_n to_o come_v into_o the_o world_n in_o order_n to_o deliver_v man_n from_o this_o law_n for_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o there_o be_v reason_n for_o the_o abolish_n of_o

of_o god_n messenger_n and_o servant_n as_o for_o example_n 3._o moses_n who_o be_v indeed_o faithful_a in_o the_o discharge_n of_o his_o office_n in_o the_o house_n of_o the_o eternal_a god_n but_o

to_o be_v betwixt_o moses_n and_o christ_n the_o apostle_n therefore_o to_o take_v they_o off_o from_o put_v so_o great_a a_o dishonour_n upon_o the_o captain_n of_o their_o salvation_n tell_v they_o that_o christ_n be_v count_v worthy_a of_o more_o glory_n than_o moses_n for_o though_o christ_n be_v a_o servant_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o moses_n and_o a_o friend_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o abraham_n yet_o he_o be_v to_o be_v prefer_v because_o he_o be_v a_o son_n and_o the_o son_n among_o the_o jew_n be_v prefer_v before_o servant_n and_o friend_n and_o the_o elder_a son_n before_o all_o the_o family_n so_o christ_n be_v the_o elder_a son_n the_o first_o beget_v among_o many_o brethren_n to_o he_o be_v give_v the_o pre-eminence_n the_o jew_n though_o reduce_v to_o the_o

who_o they_o give_v more_o honour_n and_o respect_n than_o they_o do_v to_o the_o angel_n themselves_o for_o they_o term_v they_o the_o friend_n of_o god_n but_o the_o angel_n those_o celestial_a being_n be_v only_o term_v god_n servant_n so_o that_o it_o be_v very_o probable_a that_o when_o the_o apostle_n prefer_v christ_n before_o the_o angel_n it_o be_v a_o doctrine_n that_o they_o be_v

15.1_o and_o see_v that_o they_o have_v such_o a_o esteem_n for_o moses_n it_o will_v be_v a_o matter_n of_o difficulty_n to_o make_v they_o to_o believe_v the_o preeminency_n of_o jesus_n christ_n
