Joiada. I am of the same self opinion, that Paul is: Two or three (saith he) may speak in the church: Let the other hear and judge. Finally, if it be revelated to an other sitting by, let the other hold his peace. And by and by it followeth: For ye may all prophecy, one after another, that all may learn and have consolation.
