In this case Christ saith, Ne•oice and be glad. For so persecuted they the Prophets which were before you. 1Origen showeth how all that be like minded unto Pharaoh cry out that men are seduced, and led out of their way, if Moses and Aaron, that is, if the speech of the Preachers call upon them to be diligent in the Law of God, and to follow his word.2 And Chrysostom telleth us, this is no new thing. Ne admiremur quod spiritualibus instantes multa patiamur aduersa, &c. Let us not marvel, if we abide many adversities, because we follow after and desire those things which are spiritual: For, as the thief diggeth not, nor layeth his wait at the place, where straw, and chaff, and feathers are laid, but, there, where is gold and silver: so is the Devil most out of quiet, with those which take in hand spiritual business.3 These things (saith our Saviour) have I said unto you, that ye should not be offended. They shall excommunicate you: yea the time shall come, that ⟨p. 86⟩whosoever •••leth you will think that he doth God […]. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known he Father, nor me.
In this case Christe saith, Ne•oice and be glad. For so persecuted they the Prophets whiche were beefore you. 1Origen sheweth howe all that be like minded vnto Pharao crie out that men are seduced, and led out of theri way, if Moses and Aaron, that is, if the spéeche of the Preachers call vpon them to be diligent in the Lawe of God, and to followe hys worde.2 And Chrysostome telleth vs, this is no newe thing. Ne admiremur quod spiritualibus instantes multa patiamur aduersa, &c. Let vs not maruell, if we abide many aduersities, because we follow after and desire those thinges whiche are spirituall: For, as the théefe diggeth not, nor layeth his waite at the place, where straw, and chaffe, and feathers are layd, but, there, where is golde and siluer: so is the Diuell moste out of quiet, with those whiche take in hande spirituall businesse.
