unlikely_a that_o our_o saviour_n especial_o in_o speak_v to_o a_o woman_n of_o samaria_n shall_v in_o this_o term_n spirit_n allude_v to_o angelical_a spirit_n it_o be_v a_o matter_n much_o to_o be_v

substance_n for_o it_o be_v not_o imaginable_a that_o the_o sadducee_n who_o own_v the_o five_o book_n of_o moses_n shall_v deny_v that_o there_o be_v any_o angel_n there_o be_v in_o those_o write_n so_o evident_a and_o frequent_a mention_n of_o they_o but_o it_o be_v easy_o conceivable_a that_o they_o may_v deny_v angel_n to_o be_v incorporeal_a in_o that_o the_o history_n of_o moses_n do_v often_o speak_v of_o their_o appearance_n with_o body_n like_v unto_o man_n but_o that_o which_o full_o and_o clear_o determine_v the_o matter_n be_v that_o which_o follow_v in_o the_o text_n namely_o

can_v be_v unless_o my_o interpretation_n be_v admit_v for_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v three_o if_o we_o distinguish_v betwixt_o angel_n and_o spirit_n as_o different_a subject_n as_o any_o may_v reckon_v that_o can_v but_o tell_v three_o for_o resurrection_n angel_n and_o spirit_n must_v needs_o be_v three_o my_o exposition_n may_v also_o be_v defend_v from_o that_o which_o follow_v in_o vers_fw-la 9_o and_o from_o the_o absurdity_n which_o will_v follow_v the_o denial_n of_o it_o but_o to_o return_v i_o say_v that_o if_o our_o saviour_n by_o the_o term_n spirit_n intend_v a_o allusion_n to_o angel_n the_o word_n will_v import_v little_a or_o nothing_o at_o all_o for_o what_o can_v man_n conceive_v thence_o concern_v god_n that_o he_o be_v not_o corporeal_a be_v it_o so_o notwithstanding_o this_o be_v certain_a that_o some_o will_v not_o thence_o so_o conceive_v and_o that_o at_o least_o the_o woman_n of_o samaria_n and_o other_o of_o the_o vulgar_a sort_n can_v hardly_o if_o at_o all_o find_v any_o such_o document_n in_o the_o similitude_n but_o what_o else_o can_v man_n from_o this_o metaphor_n learn_v concern_v god_n little_o else_o upon_o any_o clear_a
