into foul errors in point of faith Vers 20. That they may learn not to blaspheme That they may reforme and recover from that very evil course in which they are both for faith and manners CHap. II. Note b. Of the Jewes washing constantly before prayers Adde So Aristeas 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 I suppose it should be 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 It is the custome for all the Jewes to wash their hands whensoever they pray to God Chap. III. Note b. Of 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 that it signifies him that marries after divorce to Athenagoras Adde This seems to be Theophylacts understanding of it for as on this place he saith it was opposed to the practice of the Jewes among whom saith he 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 polygamie was permitted or as other Copyes read 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 multitude of children was desired in which respect their divorces were permitted so on Tit. 1.6 he applyes it to him who hath so little kindness 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 that he marries another and after expressely to the 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 who saith he doth that which is not 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 unblameable 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 though it be approved by the Lawes of them which are not Christians where if 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 be thought to signifie the dead wife then it will be unappliable to the practice of the Jewes for all others as well as they married second wives after the death of the former and therefore it must probably signifie her that is departed by divorce and then that which followeth of the digamist will also concurre with it to interpret his sense to this purpose For of such marriages after divorces we know the practice and allowance of the Graecians and Romans as well as Jewes and of the Imperiall Lawes And so before him Theodoret If any man having put away his former wife shall marry another he were worthy of reprehension and therefore a Bishop that must be 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 must not be such an one So Chrysostome also from whom Theophylact had his sense and words Of the practice of divorcing and marrying after it Adde S. Hierome mentions some that being divorced this day married the next and addes Vterque reprehendendus maritus cui tam citò displicuit cui tam citò placuit both husbands were to be blamed he that was so soon displeased with his wife and he that so soon liked and married her And so Innocentius of those who after a divorce marry anew in utraque parte adulteros esse they are on both sides adulterers and to be excommunicate To this belongs that of Justin Martyr 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 they that by mans Law make second marriages are sinners in the account of Christ our master Ibid. Note e. Of the title of the Church the pillar and ground of truth i. e. a pillar standing steady on its basis Adde A like expression we find in the Jewish writers from whence it seems to be imitated as when Maimonides in his first volume li. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 begins his first Hilchot called 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 thus 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 the foundation of foundations and the pillar of wisdome is to know there is a first being c. which phrase though it differ from this in speaking of a first absolutely first foundation whereas this speaks indefinitely of a foundation yet it agrees with it in this that foundation and pillar are joyned together to signifie not severall but one and the same title Chap. IV. ver 6. Nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine Whose duty it is thus to ruminate and chew over and over again and so to feed continually on the doctrines of Christ and by instructing others to make returnes for all the good instructions c. Chap. V. Note b. Of the sonnes duty 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 to provide for the aged parent Adde And he that doth it not was infamous among heathens and accordingly Theophrastus in his Characters among the vilest actions whoring gaming stealing c. placeth 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 neglecting to feed the mother and elsewhere next after frequent worshipping of God he placeth 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 duly feeding the aged parents Thus in Hierocles speaking of marriage and children 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 saith he we beget helpers and feeders of our age and 〈◊〉 he addes when the fathers dye their children must in their stead performe this office to the Grandfather So Aristoxenus in his Pythagorean sentences l. 4. the children must think all they have to be their parents and consequently must provide for them to the utmost of their power See Stobaeus Ser. 77. Ibid. Note d. Of the notion of 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 for maintenance Adde So in Nicolaus Damascenus of the Thyni 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 They honour i. e. entertain receive strangers exceedingly So Act. 28.10 they of the Island honoured Paul with many honours giving him provision for his journey Ibid. Note f. Of Imposition of hands in receiving of penitents Adde Concil Agath Dist 5. c. 63. Poenitentes tempore quo poenitentiam petant impositionem manuum cilicium super caput sicut ubique constitutum est consequantur Let the penitents receive imposition of hands and sackcloth upon their heads as it is every where appointed To the testimonies of Cyprian and Pacianus Adde And though Theophylact seem to understand it of Ordination yet what he addes in explication of the following words neither partake of other mens sins 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 c. Thou shalt be guilty both of his future sins and even of his past because thou hast neglected them made darkness light and not dismiss'd him to the state of mourning and compunction seems to belong to absolution Ibid.
