A91718 A revindication of Psalme 105. 15. Touch not mine anointed, &c. from some false glosses, now and heretofore obtruded upon it by Anabaptists: proving that this divine inhibition chiefly concerns subjects: who let them be never so Gods servants, yet are they not Gods anointed as well as kings. Being a reply to a late seditious pamphlet, called A vindication, &c. 1643 (1643) Wing R1202; Thomason E245_28; ESTC R3804 12,963 16

it_o not_o to_o king_n in_o regard_n of_o their_o own_o subject_n for_o abraham_n isaac_n etc._n etc._n may_v not_o be_v say_v to_o be_v subject_a unto_o those_o heathen_a king_n 4._o it_o do_v not_o

of_o scripture_n crowd_v in_o the_o title_n page_n not_o only_o so_o impertinent_a to_o the_o pretend_a vindication_n but_o so_o calumnious_a so_o scandalous_a and_o that_o i_o may_v not_o say_v

according_a to_o his_o pretence_n he_o will_v vindicate_v that_o verse_n of_o the_o psalm_n from_o some_o false_a gloss_n late_o obtrude_v on_o it_o by_o royalist_n speak_v as_o like_o a_o vulgarist_n

that_o have_v take_v it_o from_o both_o king_n and_o priest_n and_o give_v it_o to_o the_o common_a people_n ha_o the_o anabaptist_n why_o it_o be_v only_o in_o their_o justification_n and_o behalf_n

that_o king_n be_v here_o inhibit_v to_o touch_v or_o harm_n subject_n but_o subject_n not_o inhibit_v here_o but_o rather_o leave_v at_o liberty_n to_o touch_v and_o harm_n king_n but_o as_o for_o
