we_o know_v what_o we_o worship_v q._n d._n you_o worship_v the_o true_a god_n as_o we_o do_v but_o you_o worship_v he_o under_o a_o visible_a similitude_n whereby_o it_o appear_v you_o know_v he_o

mr._n mede_n loc_n but_o notwithstanding_o the_o respect_n i_o bear_v to_o the_o author_n and_o his_o excellent_a work_n i_o conceive_v this_o be_v none_o of_o our_o saviour_n meaning_n for_o 1._o how_o will_v it_o be_v prove_v that_o the_o samaritan_n worship_v god_n under_o the_o similitude_n of_o a_o dove_n l'empereur_n a_o great_a master_n in_o critical_a learning_n 170._o deny_v it_o and_o

of_o the_o jew_n who_o conceive_v of_o god_n as_o a_o spirit_n and_o so_o worship_v he_o have_v he_o insist_v only_o on_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o samaritan_n and_o set_v worship_v god_n in_o

worship_a god_n in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n stand_v in_o opposition_n as_o well_o to_o the_o jewish_a as_o the_o samaritan_n worship_n and_o therefore_o this_o can_v be_v the_o meaning_n of_o they_o 3._o other_o think_v by_o worship_v god_n in_o spirit_n loc_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o worship_v of_o he_o not_o only_o with_o the_o outward_a but_o the_o inner_a man_n and_o by_o

this_o seem_v not_o to_o be_v the_o sense_n for_o though_o it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o to_o worship_n god_n in_o spirit_n be_v to_o worship_v he_o with_o the_o inner_a man_n and_o that_o 〈◊〉_d

in_o the_o room_n of_o it_o 4._o other_o think_v that_o worship_a god_n in_o spirit_n be_v here_o set_v in_o opposition_n to_o the_o carnal_a external_a worship_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o worship_v he_o in_o truth_n to_o the_o fictitious_a false_a worship_n of_o the_o samaritan_n and_o so_o they_o will_v have_v the_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n to_o amount_v to_o thus_o much_o both_o jew_n and_o

at_o hand_n that_o both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o shall_v worship_v he_o after_o another_o manner_n the_o jew_n lay_v aside_o their_o carnal_a worship_n loc_n shall_v worship_v he_o in_o spirit_n and_o the_o samaritan_n lay_v aside_o their_o false_a worship_n shall_v worship_v he_o in_o truth_n and_o this_o sense_n pererius_n with_o other_o jesuit_n give_v of_o the_o word_n but_o not_o to_o repeat_v what_o i_o have_v already_o allege_v which_o show_v this_o can_v be_v the_o meaning_n i_o see_v no_o reason_n wherefore_o spirit_n shall_v be_v restrain_v to_o the_o carnal_a external_a worship_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o truth_n to_o the_o fictitious_a false_a worship_n of_o the_o samaritan_n for_o there_o be_v want_v of_o spirit_n not_o only_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o

therefore_o how_o this_o limitation_n may_v be_v justify_v 5._o other_o think_v to_o worship_n god_n in_o spirit_n be_v to_o worship_v he_o with_o the_o inner_a man_n and_o to_o worship_v he_o in_o truth_n be_v to_o worship_v he_o without_o the_o use_n of_o such_o ceremony_n as_o be_v type_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v not_o without_o the_o use_n of_o all_o ceremony_n but_o only_o such_o as_o be_v shadow_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v they_o say_v the_o jew_n and_o samaritan_n before_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n worship_v god_n with_o bloody_a sacrifice_n and_o with_o many_o rite_n and_o ordinance_n depend_v thereon_o which_o prefigure_v some_o thing_n to_o come_v but_o christ_n be_v come_v that_o be_v prefigure_v by_o they_o he_o let_v the_o woman_n know_v that_o this_o kind_n of_o worship_n shall_v cease_v and_o that_o god_n will_v be_v worship_v after_o another_o manner_n sc_n in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v god_n will_v not_o now_o be_v worship_v in_o the_o type_n of_o thing_n expect_v but_o according_a to_o the_o verity_n of_o what_o be_v already_o exhibit_v after_o this_o manner_n speak_v maldonate_fw-it and_o other_o but_o i_o understand_v not_o wherefore_o we_o shall_v restrain_v the_o word_n only_o to_o the_o exclusion_n of_o such_o ceremony_n as_o be_v figure_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v loc_n they_o be_v a_o plain_a assertion_n of_o the_o spirituality_n and_o simplicity_n of_o gospel_n worship_n which_o will_v consist_v no_o better_o with_o other_o ceremony_n than_o such_o as_o be_v shadow_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v shall_v we_o worship_v god_n in_o the_o use_n of_o as_o many_o ceremony_n as_o the_o jew_n do_v though_o they_o be_v not_o figure_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v but_o of_o thing_n past_a or_o present_a yet_o our_o worship_n will_v be_v no_o more_o in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n than_o they_o beside_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v that_o christ_n at_o his_o come_n do_v not_o only_o abrogate_v such_o ceremony_n as_o be_v typical_a and_o shadow_v forth_o thing_n to_o come_v but_o such_o
more_o plain_a and_o grave_a habit_n even_o in_o truth_n and_o with_o this_o agree_v that_o which_o god_n speak_v by_o a_o prophet_n of_o a_o latter_a stand_n 11._o in_o every_o place_n say_v he_o

and_o plain_a manner_n to_o be_v short_a as_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o text_n set_v truth_n in_o opposition_n to_o ceremony_n so_o do_v the_o prophet_n in_o this_o place_n set_v pure_a both_o of_o

that_o the_o scripture_n have_v foretell_v that_o god_n will_v put_v his_o church_n in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o gospel_n under_o a_o spiritual_a administration_n and_o have_v she_o to_o worship_v he_o in_o truth_n than_o we_o ought_v all_o to_o do_v it_o we_o must_v not_o only_o take_v notice_n of_o prophecy_n but_o so_o far_o as_o the_o keep_n of_o our_o place_n and_o calling_n will_v permit_v

that_o the_o one_o be_v do_v in_o and_o with_o the_o other_o and_o thus_o it_o be_v in_o this_o case_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v see_v he_o accomplish_v the_o one_o we_o must_v betake_v
