in_o that_o time_n have_v deliver_v themselves_o entire_o from_o the_o sin_n of_o idolatry_n to_o which_o their_o father_n be_v so_o prone_a give_v he_o no_o occasion_n of_o comment_v on_o the_o

though_o we_o have_v not_o so_o complete_a a_o history_n of_o the_o idolatry_n of_o the_o neighbour_a nation_n to_o judea_n before_o the_o captivity_n yet_o we_o do_v certain_o know_v what_o be_v the_o idolatry_n of_o which_o the_o greek_n and_o roman_n be_v guilty_a when_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v write_v and_o though_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v write_v chief_o with_o relation_n to_o the_o jew_n who_o freedom_n from_o idolatry_n give_v no_o occasion_n to_o make_v plain_a than_o the_o matter_n of_o fact_n be_v we_o know_v likewise_o that_o when_o the_o controversy_n arise_v concern_v the_o godhead_n of_o jesus_n christ_n athanasius_n and_o the_o other_o father_n make_v use_v of_o the_o same_o argument_n against_o the_o arrian_n who_o worship_v

as_o the_o act_n that_o be_v do_v which_o to_o be_v sure_o do_v always_o carry_v the_o stupid_a vulgar_a to_o the_o gross_a degree_n of_o idolatry_n and_o thetefore_o every_o step_n towards_o it_o

such_o as_o spain_n and_o portugal_n even_o this_o may_v be_v in_o some_o degree_n well_o ground_v because_o the_o public_a and_o authorise_a office_n and_o practice_n of_o that_o church_n have_v

a_o thing_n upon_o a_o divine_a command_n and_o the_o do_v it_o without_o a_o command_n be_v two_o very_a different_a thing_n yet_o it_o can_v belong_v to_o the_o worship_n of_o image_n since_o the_o israelite_n pay_v no_o worship_n to_o the_o cherubim_n they_o pay_v indeed_o a_o divine_a worship_n to_o the_o cloud_n of_o glory_n which_o be_v between_o they_o and_o which_o be_v often_o in_o the_o
