2. The Apostle 1. Cor. 5. showeth the Israelites their purging away of leaven out of all their dwellings in the time of the Passover, to be a figure of Excommunication, whereby disobedient and obstinate sinners, who are as leaven to infect other men, are to be voided, and thirst out of the Church. Now as the purging away of the leaven, did not peculiarly belong unto any one or some few among the Israelites, but unto the whole Congregation of Israel: so the Apostle writing to the whole Church of Corinth. even to as many as should take care to have the whole lump kept unleavened, psaith to them all. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? Purge out therefore the old leaven. Put away from among your selves that wicked person.
