man_n as_o we_o be_v and_o that_o this_o man_n christ_n shall_v be_v so_o glorious_o exalt_v by_o god_n the_o father_n to_o be_v the_o chief_a in_o his_o council_n to_o declare_v his_o mind_n to_o

speak_v of_o the_o angel_n as_o be_v familiar_a with_o he_o whereby_o they_o may_v show_v their_o acceptance_n of_o that_o work_n be_v the_o great_a counsel_n of_o heaven_n for_o he_o can_v not_o

one_o which_o be_v true_a indeed_o that_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n be_v one_o both_o in_o mind_n and_o doctrine_n the_o son_n deliver_v the_o mind_n of_o the_o father_n as_o i_o have_v show_v

be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o god_n think_v it_o no_o robbery_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n and_o the_o express_a image_n of_o the_o father_n person_n and_o this_o be_v true_a indeed_o that_o the_o son_n be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o form_n or_o likeness_n picture_n or_o image_n of_o the_o father_n person_n but_o you_o will_v not_o say_v that_o the_o image_n or_o picture_n of_o a_o man_n be_v the_o
