For the first place / if so be that the minister ought rather to leave necessary ¹duties of burying his father / & saluting his friends undone / then that he should not accomplish his ministry to the full: much more he ought not to take upon him those things / which are not only not necessary duties / but as it shall appear / do in no case belong unto him. And although it may be applied to all Christians / yet it doth most properly belong unto the ministers. And as for the other place of Luke / touching our saviour Christs refusal to divide the ²inheritance between the brethren / it is most aptly alleged to this purpose. For although our saviour Christ doth not there take away from men / authority to judge / yet he showeth thereby sufficiently / that it belongeth not unto the ministers of the word / to intermeddle in the judgement of civil causes. For our saviour Christ framed that answer / having respect to the bounds of his calling.

For the first place / if so be that the mynister ought rather to leaue necessary ¹dueties of burying hys father / & saluting hys frends vndone / then that he shoulde not accomplysh hys ministery to the full: much more he ought not to take vpon hym those thinges / which are not only not necessary dueties / but as it shall appeare / doe in no case belong vnto hym. And although it may be applyed to all Chrystians / yet it doth most properly belong vnto the mynisters. And as for the other place of Luke / touching our sauyoure Chrystes refusall to deuide the ²inheritaunce betweene the brethren / it is moste aptly alledged to thys purpose. For althoughe our sauioure Christe doth not there take away from men / authoritie to iudge / yet hee sheweth thereby sufficiently / that it belongeth not vnto the ministers of the worde / to intermeddle in the iudgement of cyuil causes. For our sauioure Christ framed that answere / hauing respect to the boundes of his calling.
