the_o assembly_n do_v first_o meet_v they_o spend_v some_o time_n in_o their_o mutual_a salutation_n and_o as_o their_o manner_n be_v they_o kiss_v one_o the_o other_o cheek_n express_v much_o joy_n for_o their_o happy_a meeting_n and_o all_o thing_n be_v provide_v for_o their_o accommodation_n they_o consider_v of_o the_o jew_n that_o be_v to_o be_v admit_v member_n of_o this_o council_n and_o they_o be_v only_o allow_v to_o be_v member_n which_o can_v by_o record_n prove_v themselves_o to_o be_v native_a jew_n and_o for_o defect_n herein_o i_o observe_v above_o five_o hundred_o refuse_v though_o doubtless_o they_o be_v trueborn_a jew_n yet_o they_o can_v not_o by_o record_n prove_v themselves_o so_o to_o be_v and_o for_o this_o they_o be_v not_o admit_v to_o be_v member_n of_o the_o council_n but_o they_o do_v abide_v without_o the_o rail_n with_o the_o stranger_n that_o be_v there_o and_o the_o number_n of_o they_o that_o be_v accept_v to_o be_v member_n be_v about_o three_o hundred_o jew_n and_o this_o be_v all_o that_o be_v do_v the_o first_o day_n on_o the_o second_o day_n the_o assembly_n be_v full_a the_o propounder_n stand_v up_o and_o make_v his_o speech_n concerning_o the_o end_n of_o their_o meeting_n and_o this_o say_v he_o be_v to_o examine_v the_o scripture_n concerning_o christ_n whether_o he_o be_v already_o come_v or_o whether_o we_o be_v yet_o to_o expect_v his_o come_n in_o examine_v this_o question_n they_o search_v the_o old_a testament_n with_o great_a care_n and_o labour_n to_o be_v resolve_v of_o the_o truth_n thereof_o have_v many_o bible_n with_o they_o there_o for_o this_o end_n and_o about_o this_o point_n there_o be_v great_a dispute_n among_o they_o the_o major_a part_n be_v of_o opinion_n that_o he_o be_v not_o come_v and_o some_o incline_v to_o think_v that_o he_o be_v come_v be_v move_v thereunto_o by_o their_o great_a judgement_n that_o have_v continue_v now_o this_o 1600_o year_n upon_o they_o i_o remember_v very_o well_o one_o of_o the_o council_n in_o his_o conference_n with_o i_o seem_v to_o be_v very_o apprehensive_a of_o the_o great_a and_o long_a desolation_n of_o their_o nation_n ever_o since_o their_o destruction_n by_o the_o roman_a emperor_n and_o he_o impute_v this_o their_o affliction_n to_o their_o impenitency_n and_o compare_v their_o present_a judgement_n with_o their_o other_o judgement_n they_o have_v suffer_v before_o the_o same_o he_o ingenuous_o confess_v that_o he_o do_v conceive_v it_o be_v for_o some_o great_a wickedness_n and_o that_o their_o nation_n be_v guilty_a of_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o prophet_n send_v from_o god_n to_o their_o nation_n and_o the_o many_o massacre_n that_o have_v be_v commit_v by_o the_o several_a sect_n and_o faction_n among_o they_o for_o say_v he_o we_o be_v no_o idolater_n neither_o do_v i_o think_v we_o be_v guilty_a of_o idolatry_n since_o our_o captivity_n in_o babylon_n and_o therefore_o say_v he_o i_o do_v impute_v this_o our_o calamity_n and_o present_a judgement_n to_o the_o forename_a cause_n and_o this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o that_o which_o be_v dispute_v among_o they_o the_o second_o day_n of_o their_o meeting_n and_o so_o they_o adjourn_v till_o the_o next_o morning_n which_o be_v the_o three_o day_n of_o their_o meeting_n when_o be_v assemble_v together_o again_o the_o point_n that_o be_v chief_o agitate_a be_v concerning_o the_o manner_n of_o christ_n his_o come_n and_o this_o some_o say_a shall_v be_v like_o a_o mighty_a prince_n in_o the_o full_a power_n and_o authority_n of_o a_o king_n yea_o in_o great_a power_n than_o ever_o any_o king_n have_v and_o that_o he_o will_v deliver_v their_o nation_n out_o of_o the_o power_n of_o their_o enemy_n and_o their_o temple_n shall_v be_v rebuild_v again_o and_o that_o the_o nation_n shall_v be_v of_o their_o religion_n and_o worship_n god_n after_o their_o manner_n for_o they_o hold_v that_o the_o messiah_n will_v not_o alter_v their_o religion_n whensoever_o he_o come_v and_o further_o concerning_o his_o parentage_n they_o do_v agree_v in_o this_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v bear_v of_o a_o virgin_n according_a to_o the_o prediction_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o they_o agree_v also_o that_o he_o may_v be_v bear_v of_o such_o a_o virgin_n which_o may_v be_v of_o mean_a note_n among_o their_o nation_n as_o be_v the_o virgin_n mary_n and_o here_o some_o of_o they_o seem_v to_o i_o to_o incline_v to_o think_v that_o christ_n be_v come_v therefore_o when_o they_o come_v together_o again_o the_o next_o day_n the_o propounder_n demand_v of_o they_o if_o christ_n be_v already_o come_v and_o who_o they_o think_v he_o be_v and_o to_o this_o demand_n they_o give_v this_o answer_n that_o they_o think_v eliah_n be_v he_o if_o he_o be_v come_v because_o he_o come_v with_o great_a power_n which_o he_o declare_v by_o slay_v the_o priest_n of_o baal_n and_o for_o the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o scripture_n he_o be_v oppress_v by_o ahab_n and_o jezabel_n yet_o they_o esteem_v he_o to_o be_v more_o than_o a_o mortal_a man_n because_o he_o so_o strange_o ascend_v up_o into_o heaven_n and_o because_o this_o opinion_n be_v contradict_v by_o other_o the_o day_n follow_v they_o take_v into_o examination_n the_o same_o question_n to_o answer_v they_o that_o say_v eliah_n be_v not_o the_o messiah_n they_o of_o the_o contrary_a opinion_n do_v urge_v the_o care_n and_o love_n of_o eliah_n for_o the_o good_a of_o their_o nation_n in_o that_o he_o leave_v they_o elisha_n his_o disciple_n to_o teach_v and_o instruct_v the_o people_n which_o they_o expect_v to_o be_v the_o care_n of_o their_o messiah_n these_o be_v the_o chief_a argument_n they_o have_v to_o defend_v their_o opinion_n and_o the_o same_o day_n towards_o night_n it_o come_v into_o question_n among_o they_o what_o he_o then_o be_v that_o say_v he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o be_v crucify_v by_o their_o ancestor_n and_o because_o this_o be_v the_o great_a question_n among_o they_o they_o defer_v the_o further_a consideration_n thereof_o until_o the_o next_o day_n when_o meet_v again_o the_o pharisee_n for_o some_o of_o this_o sect_n be_v among_o they_o that_o be_v always_o the_o enemy_n of_o christ_n they_o first_o begin_v to_o answer_v this_o last_o night_n question_n and_o these_o by_o no_o mean_n will_v yield_v that_o he_o be_v the_o christ_n and_o these_o reason_n they_o give_v for_o their_o opinion_n first_o because_o say_v they_o he_o come_v into_o the_o world_n like_o a_o ordinary_a and_o inferior_a man_n not_o with_o his_o sceptre_n nor_o royal_a power_n wherewith_o they_o affirm_v the_o come_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v glorious_a 2._o they_o plead_v against_o he_o the_o meanness_n of_o his_o birth_n in_o that_o his_o father_n be_v a_o carpenter_n and_o this_o they_o say_v be_v a_o dishonour_n that_o christ_n shall_v not_o be_v capable_a of_o 3._o they_o accuse_v he_o to_o be_v a_o enemy_n to_o moses_n law_n in_o suffer_v his_o disciple_n and_o in_o do_v work_n himself_o that_o be_v prohibit_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o they_o believe_v that_o the_o messiah_n will_v punctual_o and_o exact_o keep_v the_o law_n of_o moses_n and_o where_o the_o gospel_n do_v testify_v of_o christ_n that_o he_o do_v fulfil_v the_o law_n they_o reject_v the_o testimony_n thereof_o because_o they_o do_v not_o own_o the_o gospel_n but_o i_o observe_v these_o reason_n of_o the_o pharisee_n do_v not_o satisfy_v all_o that_o hear_v they_o but_o there_o still_o remain_v some_o doubt_n in_o some_o of_o they_o concerning_o christ_n for_o there_o stand_v up_o one_o rabbi_n call_v abraham_n and_o object_v against_o the_o pharisee_n the_o miracle_n that_o christ_n wrought_v while_o he_o be_v upon_o earth_n as_o his_o raise_n of_o the_o dead_a to_o life_n again_o his_o make_v the_o lame_a to_o walk_v the_o blind_a to_o see_v and_o the_o dumb_a to_o speak_v and_o the_o same_o abraham_n demand_v of_o the_o pharisee_n by_o what_o power_n he_o do_v these_o miracle_n the_o answer_n the_o pharisee_n return_v to_o he_o be_v to_o his_o purpose_n they_o say_v he_o be_v a_o impostor_n and_o a_o magician_n and_o blasphemous_o traduce_v he_o of_o do_v all_o his_o miracle_n by_o magic_n thus_o say_v they_o he_o first_o cause_v they_o to_o be_v blind_a to_o be_v dumb_a to_o be_v lame_a and_o then_o by_o take_v away_o his_o magical_a charm_n they_o be_v restore_v to_o their_o former_a condition_n nevertheless_o this_o answer_n give_v little_a satisfaction_n to_o the_o say_a abraham_n but_o thus_o he_o reply_v that_o he_o can_v not_o charm_v those_o that_o be_v bear_v in_o that_o condition_n as_o blind_a etc._n etc._n and_o bear_v also_o before_o christ_n himself_o be_v bear_v as_o it_o appear_v some_o of_o they_o be_v this_o seem_v to_o he_o a_o absurd_a paradox_n and_o true_o the_o
