these_o point_n observe_v i_o conclude_v that_o the_o young_a widow_n have_v damnation_n not_o for_o marry_v but_o for_o be_v wanton_a before_o their_o marriage_n for_o in_o be_v wanton_a against_o

they_o to_o marry_v even_o after_o such_o their_o promise_n or_o vow_n i_o prove_v it_o note_v well_o what_o i_o say_v because_o so_o soon_o as_o he_o have_v will_v the_o young_a widow_n to_o marry_v in_o the_o 14._o verse_n forthwith_o in_o the_o 15._o verse_n he_o yield_v the_o reason_n of_o that_o his_o advice_n to_o wit_n because_o certain_a be_v already_o turn_v back_o after_o satan_n now_o in_o the_o 15._o verse_n he_o must_v needs_o speak_v of_o such_o widow_n as_o be_v receive_v into_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o church_n because_o none_o can_v be_v turn_v back_o from_o that_o to_o which_o they_o never_o be_v admit_v he_o therefore_o speak_v likewise_o of_o the_o betroth_a widow_n in_o the_o next_o verse_n before_o which_o i_o make_v evident_a three_o way_n first_o because_o otherwise_o his_o illation_n in_o the_o 15._o verse_n shall_v be_v foolish_a &_o frivolous_a foolish_a because_o it_o can_v have_v no_o connexion_n with_o the_o 14._o verse_n frivolous_a for_o that_o it_o can_v not_o conclude_v his_o purpose_n second_o because_o he_o have_v already_o in_o the_o 11._o verse_n charge_v the_o bishop_n timothy_n not_o to_o receive_v any_o widow_n under_o the_o age_n of_o 60._o year_n this_o conclusion_n therefore_o be_v make_v touch_v the_o widow_n not_o yet_o admit_v he_o go_v forward_a and_o give_v his_o advice_n for_o the_o young_a widow_n than_o receive_v

to_o holy_a wedlock_n to_o bring_v forth_o child_n to_o be_v housewife_n and_o so_o to_o give_v no_o occasion_n to_o the_o adversary_n to_o speak_v evil_a three_o because_o otherwise_o saint_n paul_n

i_o note_v three_o that_o if_o we_o grant_v caath_v amram_n and_o moses_n to_o have_v be_v beget_v in_o a_o competent_a age_n we_o shall_v easy_o find_v the_o number_n of_o 215._o year_n which_o

to_o have_v be_v 120._o year_n old_a when_o he_o beget_v jochebed_n and_o jochebed_n to_o have_v be_v 100_o year_n old_a at_o the_o birth_n of_o moses_n both_o which_o be_v impossible_a by_o the_o

bare_a 300._o year_n so_o then_o we_o be_v short_a of_o the_o supputation_n mention_v in_o genesis_n by_o one_o full_a hundred_o year_n and_o of_o the_o reckon_n specify_v in_o exodus_fw-la by_o a_o

moses_n bring_v the_o israelite_n out_o of_o egypt_n second_o since_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o jochebed_n three_o since_o jochebed_n be_v the_o daughter_n of_o levi_n four_o since_o levi_n be_v
