Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
These sayings must be qualified with a gentle Exposition: and may not be racked extremely to the sound, and rigour of the Letter. Chrysostom thus expoundeth these words of S. Paul to the Galathians:1 Quibus Christus ante Oculos priùs depictus erat, in vobis Crucifixus. Atqui Christus non apud Galathas, sed Hierosolymis fuit Crucifixus. Quomodo igitur dicit, in vobis? Ut ostendat vim Fidei, quae potest etiam procul dissita cernere: indicans, quòd illi oculis Fidei, exactiùs cernerent, quàm nonnulli, qui praesentes adfuerant, eaque, quae gerebantur, conspexerant: Unto whom Christ was painted out, and Crucified among you before your Eyes. Yet was not Christ Crucified in Galathia, but at Jerusalem. How then saith S. Paul unto the Galatians, Christ was Crucified amongst you? His meaning was, to show the strength of Faith, which is able to see things, though they be far away: and that they by the Eyes of Faith saw the Death of Christ more plainly, and perfectly, then many, that were present at his Death, and saw those things that were done.
These saieinges muste be qualified with a gentle Exposition: and maie not be rackte extréemely to the sounde, and rigour of the Letter. Chrysostome thus expoundeth these woordes of S. Paule to the Galathians:1 Quibus Christus ante Oculos priùs depictus erat, in vobis Crucifixus. Atqui Christus non apud Galathas, sed Hierosolymis fuit Crucifixus. Quomodo igitur dicit, in vobis? Vt ostendat vim Fidei, quae potest etiam procul dissita cernere: indicans, quòd illi oculis Fidei, exactiùs cernerent, quàm nonnulli, qui praesentes adfuerant, eaque, quae gerebantur, conspexerant: Ʋnto whome Christe was painted out, and Crucified emonge you before your Eies. Yet was not Christe Crucified in Galathia, but at Hierusalem. How then saithe S. Paule vnto the Galathians, Christe was Crucified emongst you? His meaninge was, to shewe the strengthe of Faithe, vvhiche is hable to see thinges, though thei be far avvaie: and that they by the Eies of Faithe sawe the Deathe of Christe more plainely, and perfitely, then many, that were presente at his Deathe, and sawe those thinges that were donne.
