Joiada. In this thing ye are greatly deceived, for the doctrine of John, and the doctrine of Christ, are all one, and their baptism all one (Here I do speak of the baptism of water) and by this we do gather and conclude truly, that these men of Ephesus were not baptized with the baptism of John, (I speak of the water) for if they had been baptized with the baptism of John, it had not been necessary and needful, that Paul should had baptized them again in the baptism of Christ, for both their doctrine & their baptism are all one.
Ioiada. In this thing ye are greatly deceyued, for the doctrine of Ihon, and the doctryne of Christe, are all one, and their baptisme all one (Here I do speake of ye baptisme of water) and by thys we doo gather and conclude truly, that these mē of Ephesus were not baptyzed with the baptysme of Ihon, (I speake of the water) for if they had bene baptized wyth ye baptisme of Ihon, it had not bene necessary and nedefull, that Paule should had baptized them againe in the baptisme of Christe, for bothe theyr doctryne & their baptisme are all one.
Simon. If the doctrine of John, & the doctrine of Christ were all one, why did Luke write that Apollo was taught only in the doctrine or baptism of John, and that therefore Priscilla and Aquila, did take him unto ⟨image 9⟩them, and did teach him more exactly in the way of the lord.1 If the doctrine of John, and the doctrine of Christ were all one, what did need to teach him more exactly? for he that did know the doctrine of John, did also know the doctrine of Christ.
Symon. If the doctryne of Ihon, & the doctryne of Chrste were all one, why dyd Luke wryte that Apollo was taught onely in the doctrine or baptysme of Ihon, and that therefore Priscilla and Aquilla, dyd take him vnto ⟨image 9⟩them, and did teache him more exactly in the way of the lorde.
