The answerer said / that there was not one word in the scripture off pulpits or off sitting at the communion: in a word I showed / that there was. And where he saith the pulpit was placed in open street: That was / because off their dwelling in tents / 1the feast whereof they celebrated. For otherwise it appeareth / that such a high place in the temple / out off the which the voice off him which spake might be heard / was ordinary. The reason off calling the doctrine of Moses / the chair of Moses / by a metonymy off the subject For the adjunct: I will leave to the reader to judge of. for my judgement off them / I said / that they are not lightly to be changed: and he disputeth against me / as if I had said: that it were not lawful to change thes upon any occasion. And beside this disputing against his own fancy / and not against my words: he hath violently broken into the question / off reading and interpreting the word off God / without any the lest occasion given thereof: and hath also shamefully corrupted / the place off Nehemiah / as shall be seen in the proper place.
